Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed it. The thing which surprised me a little is just how LIMITED the drums are. I mean, they are squashed to death. It reminds me of when I remixed the mogg of Revolution, and to get the same sound as the single I had to hard limit the drums and bass to something like -12db. Don't let anyone tell you that loudification was invented in the 90s. It was alive and well in the 60s!

Still slightly off-topic:
I don't have dial-up, but live out in the country (NE Wisconsin, USA), and to this day have to download DVDs overnight.
Sigh.
Someday we'll be updated.
There's no satellite access or anything like that? Maybe 4G?
In the meantime, it's still worth it: my wife and I enjoy watching deer, wild turkeys, and sometimes black bears in our front yard; somedays the only car that comes down our road is the mailperson; no streetlights--so when it's dark, it's DARK
Woah... BEARS? Are you kidding me? That is scary stuff. At least I can avoid sharks by not swimming in the sea, but if I saw a bear in my front yard then I think I'd literally crap my pants. I did see a fox one night, but he was more scared of me than me of him.
As for the dark... I remember about 20 years ago i was at someone's house for the first time, in an unfamiliar neighbourhood. It was night by the time I left, but because their house was on stilts in a gully you couldn't see the street from the house. So I bad goodbye and walked up this long flight of steps to where the road was... or was supposed to be. There must have been a power failure and it was BLACK. I mean, like, total black. It must have been a moonless night too. I started walking up the hill, thinking that round the next corner there would surely be some kind of street light, house light or a shop. Nothing. It went on and on and got darker and darker until I literally couldn't see my hand in front of my face. I have never experienced darkness like that before. Every step forward was like walking off a precipice, not knowing what was in front of me. At one point a sliver of light came from somewhere and I glimpsed a flight of steps leading upwards. Still with no real idea of where I was going, I decided that at least if I followed the steps it would lead me SOMEWHERE. Eventually, after nearly tripping and breaking my neck three or four times, I reached the top of these stairs and... LIGHT! It was like a divine miracle: a row of houses with their front rooms lit up. So i then managed to find my way back to the main road, but wow was that a scary experience. I just wish I'd owned a mobile phone at the time!
Those were the times of the Torrents.
