Wonderful music! You did a great job, everything fits perfectly in the wave. Also I like a lot that high-pitch “whistle” in the middle.

Apart from the technical stuff, the music ​​is just beautiful.

This is superb, Wired_Ant. I was thinking “if I composed music for this poem it would’ve been nothing like this!” That’s the beauty of ccMixter - it takes it from a different angle & the end result is value-added. Thanks - nice Christmas/ New Year’s present for me!

Rob I am really glad you like this remix and the mood that I framed around your great poem! I just walked on hot coals until I read your review!
I was already fascinated the day you uploaded “Clearing the caravan park”!
It is on me thank you for this X-mas present!
PS: I replaced the mp3 and cleared that organ beep at the beginning.

I’ve been busy with other stuff & haven’t uploaded much in the later part of 2011. In a week I move to Japan for a year - I’m hoping to put more up on ccmixter in the new year. I’ve also put your version up on my poetry website:

This is really excellent, WA. The backing track is gorgeous and absolutely works with robwalkerpoet’s moving words and straight delivery (which I love). Thought-provoking and compelling listening. xxxx

Thank you so much Ciggi! Knowing this mix found such well-disposed ears means much to me! Rob´s poem and the way he recited it is just phenomenal!

Nicely done

Could have been a theme song for New York’s Jimmy McMillan of the Rent Is Too Damn High Party

Thanks Texas! Again I learned something new: brave Jimmy McMillan and his party. Impressive!

Wow! (Though it wasn’t so,) words and music fit so perfectly as if they were made for each other. And I’ll take it down as a reference on how to handle spoken word.

Thank you mate! The track waited very long to find its voice and it really was worth the waiting for Rob`s fantastic poem and his performing!
