I note that you don't seem to be able to download music files from the group anymore, they just play in quicktime and if you want to save the file you have to buy Quicktime pro. Have Yahoo done some sort of deal with Apple?

However all the music files are mine so it's no great loss!

Nice choir, good cathedral reverb. The Spike Jones version ... The
industrial percussion doesn't work well with the choir. Trent Reznor
would love it.

Yeah. Pity it's all digital samples!

Thanks. The percussion is the sound effects bank of M-tron mapped onto the lower base part.

Yes it is. But M-tron and FL Studio together only cost a couple of hundred dollars. You should have heard it arranged for flutes, it was painful or mixed strings, they weren't in tune with each other.

When my keyboard skills have improved and #1565 is working, I'll post a live version.

Always interesting stuff, Mark! I like it, thanks!

It downloaded & saved as an mp3 just fine on my
computer, and I didn't need Quicktime to play it.

A couple of bass drum crashes (or something like
it) might also work with the Spiked version.

Thanks Bruce, I've uninstalled Itunes and Quicktime and normal service has been resumed!
