This song teleports me to a movie. It’s an action movie in 1973. The chase is on through the streets of Hamburg, a dark Mercedes following an Alfa Romeo at breakneck speed. At some point, the cars get ditched, and the parties slip from alley to alley in a busy market area. Thanks for creating this interesting mix.

I think you have just successfully pitched to make the video for this! Thanks for the review.

Sadly, with my video-making skills, the chase would either star stickfigure animations or ducks.

I would be very happy with that.

The soundtrack to my fears on Artificial Intelligence.
The right portion of distraction, dysharmonies.
I like it….as I am a data junkie.

This is fun! Wild ride from start to finish — it’s raw, it’s groovy, and just when we think we’ve got it figured, you pull the rug right out from under us at at 3:45. Then it gets super psychedelic and spacey. Great mix!

Thanks! At one point the psychedelic dub ending was much longer than the first groove…

You’ve definitely lit up my sky! This is powerful. I feel it in my chest. I really enjoyed reading about your process too. There are so many incredible sounds in this track (and yes, the guitars are amazing) — you helped me listen deeper. I can completely hear Mana’s style in this, and yet, it sounds like you too. That guitar section at the stop is so rockin’!!! What a crescendo back to the groove. Great mix.

Thanks, Snowflake! Glad you think I’ve struck the balance between Mana Junkie’s excellent grooves and my own musical tastes. I like that guitar section too - but no idea how I did it…

Dig the big guitars. Creates an energy that runs throughout

Very cool track. While listening, I was looking at another screen. When the feel completely shifted, I went back to the playlist to see what I was listening. The transition was so seamless but the sections so stylistically different, that I thought I was actually listening to a different track.

Thank you for including me in this creative, groovy and artistic sonic treasure.

Thank you! I have sneakily incorporated two tracks in one. But your vocal really is the thread that binds everything together.

Infectious beat and great electro-rock feel, Siimon. Really like the sitar-like timbre and changing the rhythm and soundscape.
