i like where this takes me and i would love to know what you are using to generate the sound scape. i need to get some software with the kinds of controls that generate these tones

Incredible! So creative! I had no idea you existed until Patrick El Meliani sent me the link to his page "polymood," which has two of your songs on it. Wow!

love the bass... love the claps, taps...wow.. I am really impressed with this album so far. this stuff inspires! so fluid... and not the least bit banal for a 12 minute track... it's constantly moving. you guys pulled it off.. the violins at 05:30 are so awesome. I hear a bit of dissonance in there too. Shit, I might as well be reviewing your album with these lengthy comment chapters. good stuff... You guys really made something special.
I like the overall idea but I have a couple suggestions for the lyrics. First, it's a little clumsy; I've never heard "401k" sound poetic. Second, you sing about a character who's lost his future, but you don't show how this happened. Especially in light of the "401k" and "faceless concerns" lines, the picture that I'm getting is of a guy who's been trapped by his own choices, both productive (career) and consumptive -- while this absolutely can be a compelling story, it has to told, and with some introspection. Jess used to tell me, "Show it, don't say it". I think the key album to listen to for songs of this sort is Bruce Springsteen's The River, especially the title track. For all his characters that have lost there futures, there's a story.
Sorry if I'm being a lyrics snob, it's just what I am. Thanks for writing about these ideas, it needs to be done.
This old piece was a first attempt at a soundtrack for a low budget thriller movie. I didn't end up scoring the whole thing, but I had a good time playing around.

Extremely tasteful layers on top of the perfect groove. Love it!
Great song! I like everything. And I agree with glu - this is a hit!
f**K! this is a hit! You guys really nailed the current sentiment. what an important song. The American dream...it's an anachronism. wake up America!

W, you have such fantastic pitch - it's quite incredible.

Very poignant - a 21st century parallel to Phil Ochs.
Love the organ and the way the lullaby weaves in and out!

Eclectic, provocative, cool, new, beautiful; a wonderful list. Love the rhythms in this one.
