Shred 41 -They're neck & neck down the homestretch

I say live and let live.

How are you Scott? It's been a while.

I find the pony spam to be far more annoying than Walter ever was, and we all know how annoying Walter was.

He's gradually getting more and more plays. Like it more than VdGG, that's for sure.

Hey Linus.  Good to see you around these parts.  It has been a while.  I'm doing pretty good.  My Tigers (see avatar) have made the playoffs this year, so that brings me much joy.  Although I do seem to be getting crustier as I get older and am finding myself annoyed much easier than I used to.

Go Tigers then!

I think I'll try DT's latest since it's on Spotify.

What is the story behind Zess? It's a completely unique Magma track, i've not heard anything similar from Magma. Is it just a Vander solo piece he did a few times with Magma?

I've always had a bit of a problem with both. Should love, but don't. Seems to be changing, though.

You might like Fool's Mate. A bit more light-hearted and varied compared to the usual compact bleakness.

Go Premium - a cause worth paying for!

Ah, but the only thing which is almost tempting in premium is the "enhanced sound quality" and I don't even know how "enhanced" it would be...I don't have a phone which is compatible with Spotify, nor is my Zune, and I don't care about offline playlists and such.   Hard to justify paying 2x the price of Unlimited for one thing which I can probably live without.

I see now that the "enhanced" is 320 kbps instead of 160.  I'm usually fine with 160, so I'm not swayed by the 320.
