Pretty good, but got a bit monotonous towards the end.

It's electronica-based. It's always like that. :) You wont get prog-rock style build ups with them. Try the recent link I posted.

Yeah, I quite like listening electronica, when I do, but that song had too much of the same riff and what's with those words?

They're in japanese. He's japanese. The japanese characters are actually representing the sound the beats are making. Basically Japanese characters have a specific "letter" for something that sounds like "Pow", and it's different from a "soft pow", and so on and so forth, while the english language only has POW!!! and pow...

Which is why the video is incredibly clever. He's visualized the sound he was making. :)

Try this one too: YouTube

Same guy... I'm listening to everything he's got that I can find. Apparently his CD is a Japan-only release. :)

I must be sick or something - but I read "Jag E-type that blows away most of the new stuff"... and wondered why the hell was the Jaguar! :P :D :oops:

Hmmm... weak, the force was? :lol:

Cornelius has LOTS of albums....you can find pretty much all of them here in the US....most of them are on Matador Records, an indie label based here in the US.

Oooh! Thanks for the info! Now I can actually order them! :lol:
