Nice work, dave! Glad to hear a finished version, haven't heard this since you let us hear the 40 second or so WIP.

It's ethno-electronica, one of my favorite styles. And it's got that hint of trademark pretzel funk to it, I dig.

YES

At first, I wasn't sure if I liked the style, but it has a unique charm to it that I just love :D

Really liking this, awesome stuff :P

Damn, sweet track. I love that percussive static or whatever the hell it is. I thought your version in the game was nice, but this is definitely more my style.

I was sold when the bass came in. What a sound. I also like the soft, steamy stuff in the background. Usual djp goodness.

First off, congratulations to everyone on HD remix.

Nice groove on this. I can see how it wouldn't have worked in a real videogame setting, but as a standalone it works quite well. DJP's style is apparent in this track. I like the bass throughout, and the drums.

The only drawback is the ending, which is a little too uprupt for my taste. Aside from that, nice work!

Great faux intro that dives right into the...bath?

The kicking percussion and a funky syncopated bassline is the perfect foundation for the breathy flutes and counterpoint koto. I really think those sections are the most effective, though I love the synths and talkbox section. I wish the flutes were explored a bit more with the juxtaposition of the syncopated and slick riffage underneath.
Great use of a halftime section, it hit exactly when it needed to. Pacing was great until the ending, but given the concept of the album, it's loop pretty well, so I can see how it is intended.

Probably one of my favorite djp tracks, this one is recommended!
