Tom, First of all thanks for taking a chance and getting the CD. Secondly I appreciate your honest critique. >I find little actual sound creation done by the Amiga…is it my ears?<g> Please tell me< Alot of the sounds were created by digitizing to a disc and then manipulated via a sunrize card. Some were sequenced Proteus tones and I beleive Steve also has some Roland stuff. > I have trouble 'knowing' where musical satire begins and ends?< Music is so subjective. Art itself attempts to convey a message from creator to listener, veiwer, etc. and at times the message is lost on us as we attempt to discern what was intended. >Some of the instumental work is really excellent< I think here you catch Steve's forte. >most of the vocals are mediocre at best< Alas this is true but due mostly to a lack of hardware, remember were talking about a one man band here. >Some of the lyrics are so lame.< You have a right to your opinion, I however disagree 😉 >It is very unclear to me how one is supporting the Amiga platform by buying these CD's?< I feel that supporting art created by Amiga and Saying it was created solely with Amiga, that I am giving others an example of just how powerful this platform really is. >I am very liberal/eclectic in my musical tastes. Am getting old at 47!<g> < Where do we find new material? Rock is so predictable… Classical has been completed. Someone somewhere has to take the chance of trying something new and different and I beleive the Requiem does that, I appreciate tou being brave enough to try it out, Thanks! .
