Let me first say nametags would be nice, but flying blind is fine too.
1: Yes.  Perfect buildup and the glitchy release was delightful.
2: Wasn't expecting a song like this.  Same artist who made the anigen show theme?  Nice tune and mix up of tones.
3: Lmao.
4: Been a while since I heard a bass tone like that without a fully DNB atmosphere.  Pretty heavy and glitchy but without an ear bashing quality.
5: Halloweeny in a midevil way, like running through the decadence and decay of old London streets.
6: There's the glitch I was expecting.  Not a let down in any way, still as strong as ever.  In fact reminds me a little of KingBastard with the heavy electronic atmosphere.  I wasn't expecting the last 30 seconds or so, and I like that.
7: Yes this one.  Nice sampling, and I'm glad it fell into rough tones without repeating the same shit over and over again, which is what I wish more hardcore bands would follow.
8: Won't work for me
9:  
10: Weakest so far.
11: Getting kind of tired of writing shit.  Nice sampling.  Not much to it.
12: Haven't heard orchestral shit from an independant artist in a LONG time.
13: hvhvhvhvhvvvvvvvhvhvhvhvvvvv
14: Great. I don't usually complain about this but it was to short:(
15: SPOOOOOOOOOOKYYYYYYY

Let me finish byu saying that I love all kinds of music (except acoustic).  I rate songs based on whether or not they present to me a vivid image.  A setting.  A feeling of life.  All of these songs held up wonderfully and I loved em.

Delicious.

haha glad to hear you like them thank you for the in depth review

as for the name tag thing, what media player are you using? I'm trying to make sure that everyfile has the artist information and etc. attached to it but all I really have to assign that info is winamp.  If it gets to it I may have to just tie the artist to the physical file name

ooh

here i just wrote a whole bunch of crap.

Wecan2night: With a beginning like that I thought it would be a pretty long track. after realizing there was only 2 minutes left i thought "oh okay so it's probably a really intense beginning" and uh..i just expected too much so i was a little disappointed-- because it was repetitive. still i like the first minute.
The Spook: armon is a copycat fucking rip-off of cedric he- no just kidding i like this one a lot. i love it. especially the guitars. i like the vocals, it doesn't ACTUALLY sound like cedric but it's got the same alien sound going.
To the grave: for a second i thought this was supposed to be the first track and maybe the whole ZIP file was uploaded wrong. either way it's nice :}
04 395: ya cool
Nocturnus: Red I haven't listened to an album of yours but man you make weird sounds. like this song is...RPG.
i'm dying : it's possible techno might not be my thing because the only thing i can ever say to stuff like this is "cool." just like that other one. "cool" and "good ending"
Livingbride : wow the artists are a mouthful. lmao @ "i have a rendevu with death". for me this one is the greatest because it changes a lot. i ate and gulped the last minute
Garlic & Silver: LMAO
Hawaiian: one way or another all of these tracks keep talking to me. how haunting don't u thinK
Roseanne: I like this one, but i don't know how to describe why
If I were a pumpkin: good background, good audio clip
Desperate Situation: RRGHRAGFHD why wasn't this longer. i really liked where it was going.
mmenu: it's like sci-fi game but drum'n'bass. come to think of it it would be better without the bass. it'd be emptier but more space to put other cool echoey shit.
Mrat: cool i didn't know he could do something like this :}
Sleeper: this one is great i don't think i would change anything about it.


overall the album sounds pretty messy. i thought it was going to be a bit more synchronized. there's techno coming in and out in the middle of sample songs and then a few orchestra. it felt "together" until track 5 imo. so the only thing i would suggest is rearrange the tracks so they sound more synchronized.

my favorites are the spook of hau-whatever and livingbride. i just think they stood out the most for me, and sleeper did too.
