Thanks Drakonis
Gotta love those old synths. Still have em'. The first couple of songs I ever did I used a Mattel Drum Machine and a Radioshack Synthesizer. Who needs all this fancy crap?

excellent jam
nice synth work!! Love the coaster field recording as well - is it distorted / time shifted later? The drum machine kicks butt.

Thanks
I wish I could claim the field recording - I pulled it off a sound effects CD. I think the coaster was only used in the beginning - you must be hearing the screeching car crash. Great drum machine. Thanks for listening.

Magic Mountain?
If so, I've been on that few times. I shrunk two inches in height because of it. Nice of you to retrieve this from the vaults. Love the synth work on this. The first 1:15 is worth the price of admission. And the fx work well too. Fun fun fun.
