Very nice melodies in the brass parts.  Neat stuff.

Can't take too much credit -- I just manipulated and pitch-shiffted traditional fanfares

It reminded me a bit of the brass parts on Colin Newman's Commercial Suicide.  I dug it.  Cool use of the source material!

I love Newman (and Wire and Githead). Not familiar with that album, I'll check it out. Thanks!
