Zebra-niner throu Victor-fower.

I absolutely the Matrixy sounding effects ya got on this. The rest kinda comes together much like the combatants in a demolishion derby do. All colliding as one to make for one pretty sweet tanglement. So bizarre I'm gonna have to D/L it. Lates!

on The King Called For by beastly
To chant- Numeo-herang-gaekyo, numeo-herang-gaekyo, numeo-herang-gaekyo. Haha, sorry man.

Anywho, this is definately off the wall. If only we could get Giz Butt to throw some Metal Guitar and the Beastie Boys to spit some rap on this it would be truly and utterly insane.

This kinda reminds me of some 1930's cartoon on acid (or shrooms). Triiiiipy!

on Battle by sammmm
Big H.... Little Oooooh, no! Haha...

Anyways, I just recalled a brief forum exchange we had n decided I'd check out yer stuff. Clicked on this one b/c of how it said it was an instrumental in the Desc.

And BOOM. There was that one loop of Optimus talkin to me. Man, I tell ya... The sample statement just begs n screams for some flow, don't it? I liked the strings n synth on this. The rolling bass adds a nice touch of funk. It's so random man! I think I'm gonna be dizzy, haha. Cool deal mate!

on Darkest of Days by NoSoMoDo
Well, man. I have to say that I really like this one. Though it isn't quite Accoustic that element does add an extra quality to this making it all that much more nicer. Favorited'd!

on YL MishMash by NoSoMoDo
Indeed, that's what sticks with me after hearing it. The synth! Don't ask me why, but those keys keep floating back. Kinda funny, coz I'm usually more attentive to the drums, eh (shrugs). Cool deal billy!

...but I still think I managed to shit all over the original (the one with the vox) ;-)

on Can't Leave by DougieDJ
In waves. Dood, I dunno why, but I could see this being a smash-up feature on an U.N.K.L.E. album (say with Sir Menelek spittin some funky verse). Well, there's my Pence in the pot for the moment. Lates!

Erps, I'm not Mike Birbiglia and I'm not even sure if yer wearing any pants (I know I'm not...)

(...shoots evil glare at on-readers, I've got shorts on ya freaky-deaky ppl, you'se)

I meant to say pads, pads. Hey, nice pads! The ones that go 'dinkity dinkity dinkity binkity dinkity'. That was a pretty wicked vocal sample too. Dunno what it's from, but am I correct in guessing it's from some Michael Douglas movie? Either way, it was schweetness!

on something different collab by Rorshach2021
Goa-Psy Gadget hammer!? Well, maybe not a hammer (or authentic Goa-Psy either for that matter), but it's kinda close. If ya only change up yer bass a bit it'd be.

Anyways, nuff silliness and onto the track (chuuga chuuga choo choo, alright, one last burst, but it was the last). I've gotta say- "You and Gameboi make on heck of a team!" (or have I already said that before?) This is one wild @$$ track man. I mean, I could see this on one of those trance rave vids they've got circulatin around the web n stuff. And the two of you'd be on stage with the crowd goin wild (with the water bottles, the sweat, and the jiggly accessories or light sticks/poi balls). Rawk the f*** on daagy!

on Battle Cry by Mokeone
Holy schmokes Moke, lol. Ya did one mighty fine job on this. There are two particular points that just jump out of the speakers to give ya a luv tap or pimp slap or whateva ya wanna call it, lol.

Gimme a min to finish listening to it and I'll give you (and all) those makers. Alright, lemme punch it up on my sys (to free up site bandwidth). 1st- starting at about 4:30 or 40 the way ya got the drums set up is kinda like a climatic build up. 2nd- 5:49ish the keys and bass are simply badd@$$ (course one could say the build up starting @5mins is pretty choice too).

I'm blown away mate. Ya took this in a direction I would've never thought (& @over 8 mins to boot, wow). Def downloaded & fav'd bud (we should collab more often).

As for what ya said, I'm actually thinkin about doin that more often (at say a 50% or 33% rate). TTYL mate!

on viento de la montana by johnnygadget
Through a simple greeting. To say 'hello', well, that's where it came from. The root word of "Salve (sal-way)" in Latin translates to roughly the same thing.

As for the track, I think what ya added was awesome. I'm definately diggin the guitars (the chants add an almost ancient feel as if we were peering into a porthole to 3 or 400 years back).

When I went to write a name on the desc it was the first thing that popped into mind. Now I can almost see a saga unwinding from just those few minutes all those years back. And thanks to you, it is a shared story that has been built upon even further.

We have the scene, we have the timeframe, now all we need are characters and possibly a dragon? Cheers!

on Neurotransmission by KnowCanDo
But the Piano loops on this sound vaguely familar (dunno from where though). The vocals guy almost sounds like an Islamic Wailer in morning prayer. The muted break at around the 2 minute mark was premo. I can see why ya classified it as Funk, coz it's funky, but it just doesn't seem to fit the Funk bill to me (I dunno why). At any rate, another choice chune man!

on The Strip by KnowCanDo
That movie with Antonio Bandaras and Selma Hayek (can't recall the name now), but that's what the intro reminded me off. The way it goes into the rest somewhat reminds me of something DJ Krush would do (have you checked out his album Jaku yet? I highly recommend it). I may very well download this. Thanks for the review and this dope a** track!

on jumpin up by mouko
Don'tcha just hate it when yer reminded of something and it aint all there? This track's kinda like this one song off of a Dieselboy 2 disc album that I own, but neither name is comin to me now.

This was flippin cool man. Very stompish for the floor! I could see scores of people gettin down to it. Rawk on daagy!

on bachateo by mouko
I've been a fan of this style for a while (have you ever heard DJ Sam's stuff, check him out if ya haven't). I've also been wanting to do somethin in the genre too, but haven't gotten around to it.

So, this track presents itself like... The drums are def dead on and the bassline used fits. The synth however sounds a bit different. Though not in a bad way. Maybe it's just that synth was used (shrugs). If it was someone pluckin away on a Guitar I could definately see it. Which reminds me, what do ya think of Tex-Mex or western style country? Aw man, that would be a killer mix if added to this!

on subconpro by Mokeone
Margaret, I'm comin for ya' A common quote by Red Fox (I think Marg was his wife's name, erm). Anywho, that's what the organ on this reminded me of (his show, Sanford & Son)

The synth leads remind me of something kinda spacey. Overall, this track is pretty nice (& I'm not really that into low-key stuff). I think it's because of the subdued drums. Which are nicely done and make it dancey!

on Dark House by Mokeone
This one is very good, but I agree with Red. It ins't quite House. The drums are either Jungle or Breakbeat. The Bass are kinda Dance or EDM (in a Bossanova sorta way) and the leads are Electro or Tracey (in a subdued, Dreamgate sorta way).

I really love it's overall composition because everything is so upbeat it gives this an added energy.

If you wanna make a House track just remember a few things/tricks...

Drums- The more basic the better and be sure that they have a heavy emphasis on the kicks, the hi-hat, and a third (like a clap or cowbell)

Bass- Usually mimics the drums with a basic theme (but sometimes its cool to lace other aspects into it, like an additional channel of just a flowing up and down, humming tone). Think of the kick as Boom and the bass as Bum and try to have them interlace on another like Boom, bum, boom, bum or bum bum bum, boom, bum bum bum, boom.

Once you have these two the rest just kinda falls into place easily. This is where you start to picture what the song so far reminds you of genre-wise with other stuff (like does it remind you of Latin America and Salsa-type stuff or does it seem darker and grittier, where Urban or Industrial styles would serve it best).

It's also keen to keep in mind House's roots and how it sounded in it's infancy. So giving it a soulful, retro, or disco feel adds to it's appeal/flair.

Sorry for that long ass lecture thingy. I really like this tune man. May even D/L it. Lates!

on made in mexico by mouko
Lemme give this a listen and tell you if I could add something...

Umm, given the title I think that it'd only be right if this were done in a bilingual way. Since I 'habla nada mucho espanol' then someone else would haveta pick up that aspect. It'd be tricky, but I might could add some good ole anglo to it. An alternate email you could shoot sumfin at me is-
G_Wilacres@excite.com
Either way, lemme know and I'll see what I can add.

I'm likin the straight-edge feel of this!

on show me how you like it by mouko
DId she say 'Darling' or 'Donny'? Haha, sorry, vane momemt there. Anywho, as for the genre of selection one could also lump this in with Breakbeat. Very dark, hard, and dirty. The way a perfect Drum&Bass piece should be. Excellently done mate!

on Chernobyl by Planetjazzbass
and you paint a beautiful picture of a rather gruesome subject matter (and speaking about painting, I've done some too and out of all the mediums of art I'm not too keen on doing it, though looking at the works of others is the most pleasant of the bunch, seconded only to old Copper Etchings).

As for the sbuject matter, I am currently writing a book in which I touch base on Nuclear energy (and some things about it's process that puzzle me, to act as suggestions to the scientific community for improving it). Good gravy, by Jim!

on Memories by Planetjazzbass
Dig 'em, dig 'em!? Sorry, I was thinkin somethin along the lines of 'I dig it!', but suddenly that cereal's cartoon Frog popped into my head.

Of all the ones I've heard and reviewed so far this is my favorite (will add and maybe D/L after this). The vocal sample and the vibe of this track reminds me of something of the Telepopmusic album (which is pretty choice if ya haven't heard it yet). Coolness!
