[Alice is Dead]

First time i've ever downloaded from NG's.

Perfect would be too insignificant a word to describe this.

[grooveT3K - Making Fire]

That's a spicy meat'a'ball

Those are some of the sexiest drums i've ever heard. I would make love to them if it were legal.

What's the vocal sample from?

grooveT3K responds:

I tried to go for a more real sounding drum set here rather than the good old electro style kit, and almost all of the synths used are replicating some sort of guitar sound.
As for the love making, I dont think there is a law against faunicating with an inatimate digital...thing...
The vocal sample if from my good friend Tom Hanks, he was kind enough to spit some of his famous lines from Castaway, he even brought old mate Wilson in for a special guest spot :D

Glad you enjoyed it ;)

[He'll Keep Tracking You]

Baked like a wheat loaf

This track is strangely catchy...Like Malawian Aids

But all jokes aside. This is an epic attempt at shoegaze, assuming that's what you were going for. If i'm honest, it bored the shit out of me until that massive melody kicks in.

Congratulations on some serious skill. Baked or not, you've got something...hopefully not aids.

KillTheTrucker responds:

Thank you very much! I was indeed going for shoegaze/post-rock, so I'm glad you got that feeling. This track is meant as an intro for my album, and I like boring intros very much, that's why you were bored I think.

Thanks for your review!

[grooveT3K - 911]

This track is "sick"

"sick" being the positive youth colloquialism.

The mixture of that strange robotic operator voice to your well written "phat" beat.

I've also come to understand the kids also say "phat" in relation to something positive.

Anywho, Nice track.

grooveT3K responds:

Hey mate!

I am familiar with this terminology and appreciate where your going with it ;)
Thanks for listening and as always your reviews are appreciated!
also nice blend with the lingo mate, you almost got it down pat ;)

[The Caravan]

I hate caravans. I like this.

This is a great scenario track. It conjures so many images related to your brief description.

Congratulations on a fine ass submission.

(i said ass to make this review sound more "street" and thus give it a strange sense youth credibility)

[Those Village]

Mad as a madmans box of madness

I know not the point of this track. I know i like it though, perhaps it's the late hour in which i write this review.

Anywho, this track shows promise. It's certainly better than anything Kanye west has recorded...for whatever that's worth.

BuddyBlueBomber responds:

It's purpose is actually to serve as music during a game, in a location of the same name as the song; Those Village. Most likely a village in a desert, though the actual design hasn't been conceptualized yet.

[Life Among Ruin]

Pan pipes & Injuns

I like this track. The drums compliment the track to no end.

The pipes remind of the crazy injuns you get playing in cities. You know the ones, they get dressed up in full attire...I always wondered whether they considered this a mockery of their own heritage. Admittedly after giving it some thought i stopped caring.

Nice track though

SoliniaOnline responds:

Thanks for the review! As for injuns, I've never seen them in the city, but I'm not in the city too much these days. I don't think they would mind me using an instrument though.

[Eerily Passing By (July NAC)]

Broody

I really liked the guitar parts.

[The Dark Waters Inn Waltz]

Sexy little loop

Very Burton-esque,

Elfman would be jizzing in his mighty tighty whities over this... If he had a penis that is.

[Shades of the World]

Nicely done.

Reminds of a world in which man is subservient to apes.

Kind of like that move...Schindler's list.

Very well done.
