Hey - Perfection is well titled. Sounds great! I'm stuck in a small room with just a laptop and tiny speakers and it hammers out nice and Phat. And bounces along like the best of yours. Well done. Like early Human League.

Hey Sandpit.

VP is a pretty good song. I'd like to hear a version where you nasty-up the vox a bit (electro, distortion, or just genuine live angst) so that they have the same grit/horror theme as the lyrics and other sounds. Presently you and the BVs might sound a bit too "sweet" for this song.

Just my first impression tho.

Have a good one.

Ciao

Hey sandpit

Just thought I'd tell you that we in Amber Oak have recorded some of our material which is currently available at our myspace. So if you have any spare time, please have a listen and if you want to, you can also download the tracks to your computer.

Any feedback, good or bad, would also be greatly appreciated!

Take care

Nice sounds mate, have to say I prefer Prototype to Morning Man. Just the kind of synth+guitar combo I like.
