Nothing. If you've noticed, performers name is Nikt, which means
Nothing (in Polish). The piece is most ikely to end as a background to
a lo-fi short movie, or something, after being retouched over and ove
again, hopefully by me.

Some people notice it some do not. Comments of those who notice do
vary from "you made it spin arround the head, nice" to "it made my
head spin", you seam to be in the later category.

The effect is from the whole mix being put through a phaser + slight
disballance in volume and number of instruments from left to right.

It's just a crappy, heavy compressed snare drum.

>The sax is raspy.

In reality, the sax is an old tenor purchased on the military flea
market (2kg of boots + sax for 3$ kind of place). It was renewed
somewhat, but the sound it produces is not very much like a real
saxophone at all. However, it's of completely different carachter from
this Kazoo-like sound I made it. It was intentional, though, as I (we)
fou8nd it complements the carachter of the song.

>The vocals have too much delay/phasing effect.

Really? I didn't think so, especially in context, but thank you, i'll
think about it.

>And the song goes nowhere.

I'd contribute that to hte genre.

>Two chords can only take you so far.

As a matter of fact, ther's about 5 (all in all).

I'm glad you've liked it.

Cool. Should you be on a group exhibition, and the music comming
behind the small theater door made you enter to see what it's all
abbout, the task would be accomplished.

Oooops... actually, it should mean Nobody, at least that's what I was
told, but you get the message.
