This was excellent! i really love the fusion (sorry for using the word), but this was excellent. You guys should check out Balkan Beat Box..

thanks a lot!
it was good fun making this.
i was dancing jigs around the room when KidQ was doing the dub siren stuff.

we have started working on a live Dance musical called 'Riverskank'

This is sweet as hell Monty! I think it does suffer from compositional stagnation though.

thats because we drank 12 beers and a bottle of Jack while making it.
we thought it was only 3mins long!

lol - he's not lying! we did think it was 3mins long

ahahaha!

Sweet...love the boops and swoops with the banjo...
