Chopped, filtered vocals, Holly Wood. 12/8 time. E Dorian.

Very cool.
The voices are amazing, and I like these Trance like parts with the straght four on the floor beat (is that correct for 12/8 time ???).

The drums are actually, as you correctly perceived, in4/4. Everything else is 12/8.

Quality stuff Jim! A lot more 'serious' sounding than what im used to hearing from you but just as compelling.

Very nice.  I initially thought the vocals were a sick synth sound.  The actual synth line is pretty sick, too.

Excellent, right from the start this drew me in, one of the best beats I've heard in the last few weeks! Well done!

this song has a perfect ballance between music and vocals. the beat and the lead synthlines are pretty catchy and holly woods voacals are very nice prepared. This time you left some klicks in the beginning of your chops. Was a little irritated in the beginning. This song is one of my favorite songs you have done this year.

Thank you! As for the irritating kicks, "Jedem das seine..." ::)

Wonderful track, great vocal work and perfect music for the vocals. Faved!

Thanks again for your comments!

i too enjoyed this one, just now getting around to hearing some of the weeks i've missed listening to

I like it.  Nice groove to it and i dig the karplus sounding vocal tweaks which bend down in pitch slightly at times.  Probably just stretched to shit i'm guessing?

Thanks!
