Great work, as ever, Ned. Thanks so much for doing this.

Ned = boss

Great work pulling this together!

thank you Ned!

thanks ned gonna clean the house and listen to this

oh man the first track is dope, just started

moodles, this one's for you cheers man

Thanks!

this is a trip, amazing work

Yep, good job everyone.

yeah good job everyone, this one worked out nice, kinda weirdly cohesive

shari, ums, et. al - flappy - LOVED all the tracks

Flappy wins most on-point Grimes vibe

Whole comp is great, no need to divide and conquer

love the shari track wow

It is, indeed

xp

heavy sparklehorse vibes with flappy song

cryptic is banging

Thanks all. Happy to be the cat-herder as ever.

Thanks ned

kinda weirdly cohesive

^^^ Just listened to the entire album and it's really great. Thanks to Ned for organising this.

kinda weirdly cohesive

People always say that about these comps - it's generally true too! Did everyone have a meeting and decide to do sped up vocals?

Buncha dudes trying to sound like Grimes, what can you expect?

they go high
i go low

Death row, what a brother know

This is awesome

Also I didn’t know there was a user named Ancient Domains Of Mystery, wow

ah cool !
I will listen to this over the week-end !

Moodles' ludicrous guitar solo is A+.

eheh, yeah, I only listened to the first track and it's crazy great !

This is wondrous. Somebody plz alert Grimes so that she may behold the work she has inspired. If her album is even half this good, then we are in for a treat. Sweet tunes, all yall.

Thanks for the kind words!

When Paul Gilbert of Mr. Big caught wind of this project, he immediately hopped on a plane from L.A. to Austin to contribute some tasty licks, and he even brought his guitar drill!

he's a god, i was blessed to see mr. big live open for rush at the 2nd concert i ever attended as a lad
even in 45 mins opening slot they found time for the drills

He certainly found time for the drills here. In fact, my track is 95% drill. Blessed! 🙏

Ludicrous guitar solos would have greatly improved Art Angels.

She was just starting out on guitar when she made Art Angel's, so I assume the sick solos will be in full force on the new one.

All the evidence points to it.

Would sound good in a (mini) submarine.
