I think this got somewhere, liked it a lot. Listened to it a couple days ago and revisited. The buried vocals are fine but would have like to see them amped up a bit. Cool stuff it is!

here are two kinds of music I don't like; military music and RAP ;D
often too psalmodic, poor or non-existent melody, (I say very often, there are exceptions)

Well this said , Warren's production is interesting, the background sound reminds me a bit of what Tangerine dream or Krafwerk was doing ...

I think the main voice could be a little bit more forward.

I like it, interesting lyrics - I would have liked you to bust out in a rap though at some point.

Music transcends everything - you can be whatever you like.

This is an ironic, pensive pre-rap - you've invented a genre  :D

I think you're right, it's pre-rap. This is a rap song in which I don't actually get around to rapping.

Answering the question, can you rap? Apparently NOT. Not yet.

This is quite intriguing and different Warren. A really cool soundscape and some very memorable synth lines. Some lovely sounds in there and I really liked the groove you had going, but (like others said) I did struggle to make out the vocals. But it's a pretty complex mix with a lot going on. Still a very enjoyable listen though.

Yes i enjoyed the track , a very interesting composition , but i think you may have hit a point of view that i have never heard before , the song is very well put  together and recorded to a high standard , the music in the background just fits in the grove perfectly , great stuff Warren

Very cool can you rap a couple years ago we had a discussion what type of music you did not like and after everyone had to do a song in the the style they disliked guess what I had to do  maybe I will post it. It is always a challenge to do something you do not care for and still try and make it sound good .  Great job on this

I really admire some rappers, especially Eminem, and Kendrick Lamar.

***********that is so funny and a good idea too...yes Tim I would love to hear you Rap..... I was thinking we should have a fest where whatever tracks you lay on the recording device is the way they get mixed....you cannot embellish them once they are recorded.... for those using a DAW you place each stem and then leave it alone...that is the mix.... that would change the way we record....lol
