    lol, Fun stuff DC, although this wouldn't have been played on the west coast while Richard Ramirez was still in his prime, hahaha,..''too insensitive'..
    I have a feeling what your playful nemesis 'Haverack' is going to say in advance, but this was very funky indeed, I sure as hell covet all that you have, your talents and equipment, you conjure up some nutritious stuff combining your powers,.. I think this was alot better than Rockwell's responce to this song 'Somebodies watching me' …it was very 80's sounding, and I certainly enjoy that era,.. lyrics were complete and coherent, musical accompanyment never dragged or sounded lurid nor conflicted in any areas, a true pro,.. the only criticism I have happens to be a desease of my own,.. it sounded a touch cartoonish, you could have had oscar the grouch in a split screen dancing all the way through it,.. lol this is a lesson Brad taught me,.. to be careful of the cartoon auror,.. I dont know quite how to elaborate on what I'm talking about, I guess I preferred to have a little more 'serious chill' inserted throughout the composition, I guess I'm conflicted by the character a little, but as a straight funky piece, that was bloody awesome DC.

    Man, Man, Man…..hahaha, this threw me for a massive loop, i like it, production sounds really good, lots of space filled well and sounds pleasing to the ear from left to right, i get what mangrove says about the cartoon factor and think it definitely has that vibe, i could see a kooky video clip to this track for sure….i must say that i'm impressed with the sound scape and all the little tid bits that make this track up, going to go back for another listen, but solid job DC, very nice indeedidly….

    Thanks guys. This is a very tongue and cheek song. Inspired by the old neighbors that never closed the blinds in the back of their house.

    As soon as the vocals kick in I cant help picture a Rocky Horror Picture Show scene.. Very cool DC.. You get an amazing amount of air in your tracks.. all the instruments have just enough room to be big and proud while still happily blurring into eachother's space to make the tune whole.. very impressed – i'm sure it was no happy accident!.. you've got some skills Mr DC, thats for sure..

    I'm not a huge fan of the vocal style, but they were still very well done.. kinda stuck between two places for me.. not animated enough to be quirky and unique.. and on the other side, not straight and heartfelt enough to grab and drag me in.. i guess thats the reason for the Rocky Horror imagery in my head.. An interesting character, but not cemented enough to make me buy into it..

    As a whole package I liked it.. specially the 2 funky overlayed wah tracks in the verse's .. nice little hook!
    baahhh – wah wah..
    baaahh – wow wah…!
