Well John,

The David Kristian part is easy.  Just get anything else by him if you
liked his half of the cd.

The only problem is his style WILL get pretty old if you start listening
to it a lot.

I hope he's not a one trick pony, but all the other 12"s I've got of his
all sound pretty much the same...neat midi drums with nice use of
effects, atmospheric synth pads and a few weird noises, but that's about
it.  All his tracks don't sound too different from each other.

As for the Downpour side, I'll need to give it a listen again to find
some similar stuff...maybe witchman or so, but I really can't remember
what it sounded like, except for the ultra distorted track. :-)

More to follow!

Word to the mothership,

np: nothing again, because I'm really running out the door now!
