I like that drum…its like somebody feverishly knocking to get in (or out). Cool experimental soundscape………

It actually was someone knocking! Me knocking on the front door!

Much nicer than the ping of new e-mail on the computer

RT, me lad. At first I didn’t see where this where going - the electric sitar-ish sound was a bit of a red herring, because by the time the pad enters and changes the direction, something very close to magic happens. The transition is stunning, and the slow buildup after that is …

Well, you’ve done something special here. Everything from that point on is just heavenly.

And that’s not a word you’ll hear me use very often. :)

Bleemin’ hell, RT.

Through the magic that is playlists I find myself here again, and goldarnit if it’s not even better than last time around.

What’s that all about, hmm?

And now that you don’t come around here anymore I find myself coming back to your music more and more.

And this, my good man, just takes the price.

By which I mean two things: it’s a fantastic track; and I miss having you around.

Dude, man.

leaving another review is the only way I can let you know that I this is one of those very few tracks that I keep returning to over the years.
the words are incredibly powerful on their own, but together with the backing track and your additions, it just turns into a completely different thing.

there are not many tracks that trigger this in me, so thanks for keeping it around.

the soundtrack of our lives - this is sublime. an inspired collage of disparate elements (love the spoken word choice) all working to paint a vibrant picture.

There’s a real sense of adventure here, that always seems to make your music stand out. I love the mixing/mastering on this one.

You should interprete these drum rolls as my applause for your tasteful re-arrangement. Wonderful and nice melodies on the added instruments!

I came to hear this on a tip (to someone else) from Colab. Boy, that Colab fella sure has good taste in music. This is fantastic. Irresistible from beginning to end, both thematically and musically. That knocking at the door sound about midway is a perfect trigger for thought on the subject of human interaction (it is one of my least favorite sounds, guess that says something about me).
