///Groovy Joint\\\

-By Virt/Symmetrix

   Completed Feb. 1, 1999
   after a full weekend's
   worth of work, INCLUDING
   learning Impulse Tracker.

   For me, this piece was a throw-together in terms of time, but
it's by far my most advanced piece melodically, rhythmically,
and I feel, emotionally. It gets you moving. I'm not sure what
to call the "genre," as like most of my work, this style defies
description - this's kind of like Porn music meets funk meets
hip-hop meets demostyle meets the London Symphony orchestra
there in the middle.

   These are my best drums yet, a friend of mine thought they
sounded like a breakbeat and was shocked to find out they were
sequenced- hats off to Astrotek and Darkhalo, both of whom I
forgot to mention in the greets list - hi now :) The bassline
is inspired by some of the finer funk mods - there's no misaking
the funk influences on the bass - solo it for details. I used a
different chord progression for this one, which I haven't heard
anywhere else - WizArthur, feel happy. And the leads - oh, the
leads. Listen for yourself!

   Well, enough gushing about my own music, I hope you enjoy
listening as much as I do ;) If school were this much fun,
I'd have a scholarship to Yale by now.

             Signing off,

Special Thanks to

great guidance, and to

I would never have learnt
Impulse Tracker ;)

my mania when he really
