Description : Sped up a touch

the city at night warms lights and the streets are cold
livin the city the city of light the new taking place of the old
east and west and every side walks down the street at night
the night is dark but the city is so bright
everyone can feel you and you can feel them there
you laugh and they slow down to go down into here
city lights go sliding faster than they did yesterday
city nights burn so fast in a flash they'll be gone away
love your city, man, this time is almost up
when it's gone away it won't matter at all what it was

Nice work man, VERY good synth work, but I felt some of the stuff were off timing. BUT it had a very pro sound to it ;)

Why do I get the feeling when I listen to your music that if ever we met up there would be a fight to the death as to who is the bigger Disco Diva lol.

Awesome track Ken...downloading to put on my mp3 for when I go running.

Don't laugh,but this reminds me of Summer night city by Abba.
I have always made it clear I'm an Abba fan,at my own detriment,I'm sure!But if you got Abba and Petshop boys together in a room together today,I think you'd end up with something like this.
This is really meant as a very high compliment,as I worship the ground that those two bands walk on.
They are 2 of the reasons that I make music and you are the reason I still visit this site!
You're awesome Calif,for want of a more descriptive and complimentry word.But awesome,though totally overused and easy to say,is hard to be,and you achieve it,time after time.
Great work from a legend!AWESOME!

You must've laid a new track over the old one, because I don't think this is the same one I reviewed before. This one is crazy good! I love the synth work, but then you're always good at that! You vocals/lyrics are awesome too! I really enjoyed this track! Keep it up man!

good tune, love the vox stuff, in places a little cluttered but that doesn't detract from a well, arranged, produced and thought out tune.

Good work !

I'm still pretty much like that about dancing, and I should be with singing, but I'm not. You'll know what I mean here in a minute.

You may find that the things that are embarrassing at one point only were because they were special and different, and that once you realize that they are magical motives of intuition from within, and get over the potential consequence of the action, that they become your favorite thing to do and endear everyone around you to you.

Melody is very nice :)

But, you overdid it a bit with those kicks & bass

overall, this track is 6/10 :)

This is brilliant,Im not much for Oldschool and when the intro started i thought, oh no* and that beat and bass came in and completely reversed my opinion within seconds.Its without a doubt the core of this track. It gives it a nice flavour. goodjob man

I'd say closer to Neuromantic than Neurotic, but maybe it's just me. Love the vox!

Oh man, the bass line is so happening! The dance between the synths and that bass are truly inspired. Seriously infectious and added to faves.

Wish I could be more constructive, but it's like that sometimes - like something so much you can't find anything to improve.

I'd pick the second one as well. Quite a groovy track, you really get crazy with those synths! Very catchy bass line! Is that sample saying "So neurotic"? Funny stuff! Awesome track!

Description : A stranger's knife is expected. It wounds the body and spares the heart.

But when the blade comes from a brother's hand, or a son's, or a wife's gentle fingers, it carves something no surgeon can repair. They knew where I was soft. They had always known.

I have been betrayed by enemies and I have been betrayed by kin. Only one taught me that trust is a door, and family holds the only keys.

Blood binds us but It never promised to bind us kindly.

Description : EASE. Propella Head.

Dark atmosphere meets melodic lift in this upbeat roller from EASE. Deep bass and a driving groove keep the momentum moving, while the melody brings an emotional pull. Propella Head draws you into the shadows and keeps your feet moving.

Description : Heavy, but you can still dance to it. The kind of industrial from the Chicago Wax Trax era, bands like TKK. At least that's what I was aiming for.

Description : We used to ride all night thru downtown Chicago blasting Return to foever in Marks 72 Vega with 12" Ventura BIC speakers in the back that were chrystal clear. i was still too young to drive. Those were some of the greatest times I ever had I'll never forget that band the bandmates or those times. Mark out did himself on this Re-mix/Master. He also updated the Drums, makes the track feel brand new, even tho it's 4 years old.

PEACE...
