Hi, here's a very different cover for the song "The Return of the Giant Hogweed" by Genesis. Some Techno here, some Trance there, very proggielectronic. What do you think of it? Blessings. |

I hope this is not what we need for Prog to become popular again  If this was not a cover but an original song, it could fuel an interesting debate regarding the band's addition to PA or not

I quite enjoyed it. I love electronica too and things like this made me smile. I stayed up a little late last night to listen to it. ------------- -------someone please tell him to delete this line, he looks like a noob------- I don't have an unnatural obsession with Disney Princesses, I have a fourteen year old daughter and coping mechanisms. |

| thanks for that--I like some techno---this was nothing like I thought it would be like---I thought it wouldn't have a lot of vocals and be more a driving techno version of the music--which I think would have been better--but that was cool. |

Any different interpretation is always fine ... you either take to it or you don't. This has been the same issue with a lot of classical music with different emphasyz on different locations making the pieces different under many different conductors.
I felt a bit the same on the album that several other bands, did GONG, and some of it was definitly unusual, but after a couple of listens, it was OK. But I also learnt a few things about other bands!!!
I would rather the artist was remembered, than not! And I have no issues with different interpretations! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told! www.pedrosena.com |

Not my cup of tea. I would prefer some squelchy synth sequences and stuttering percussive mayhem rather than cheesy chiptune waveforms and arpeggiators, but I applaud the effort anyway. ------------- |
