A surprising atmospheric breakbeat piece. A great job on the mix - each track is distinct and crisp, well panned, and clearly not stepping on the frequency toes of any other track. A breakbeat piece lives or dies on the strength of the drum programming, and 'sub sonor' does the drums justice (despite the mispelled title). Fantastic sounds, great mix, and the change-up at 4:00 bumps the song rating from good to great. Excellent work.

Great feeling, lots of energy. Not quite sure it as nearly as 'evil' sounding as the composer claims in the burb, but it is a great piece of trance with enough of an edge and creative sample selection that keeps a person listening. While you won't hear anything new, Mr. Fist makes sure that the tried and true trance-isms work to his advantage here.

An excellent vibe is set up early in this piece - dark, shadow-filled, but still capable of a solid head bobbing. The background to a rainy Tuesday evening, as the heroine drives back from a routine day, sighing, having killed clowns in cold blood. You know, that kind of vibe (and that's a good thing).

The first thing that practically leaps out out one is the gorgeous synth textures. Things travel smoothly until around the 0:50 mark, when an obtrusive part takes over - really mixed much, much too loud for the rest of the track. Simply overpowers everything that comes after. Wanders somewhat aimessly after the 3 minute mark. Might be great when mixed with other material, but on its own it becomes a little difficult to listen to.

Pretty low quality - almost sounds if some new drumbeats have been added to an externally played vinal. They synth line that repeats around 1:30 is pretty catchy, however. This song is very good when the lo-fied vocals aren't present. There is an acid sample that makes its appearence here and there, but not in a forceably dislikable way. Bad beginning, but comes back strong.
