my first "rap" mix, this is one of 3 entries in the Mochipet remix contest. the rapping is a little "loose" and it didn't get picked but, it's my personal fav of the 3. Credits: Cystem Open Loops, Cystem FTP loops, Mochipet Loops, vocals: Mikah 9 & Taiwankid

a little melodramatic, this one was put together in a rush. tomorrow i start job hunting and i'm somewhat apprehensive about finding another crappy dead end job. so, this is the world's smallest fiddle playing 'Cry Me A River'... Credits: Arthur Loves Plastic Open Loops and Cystem

another unfinished mix i finally got around to 'finishing'. thanks to Mental Anguish for the loops! Credits: Mental Anguish Open Loops 3 and Cystem

i was cleaning up some files and found a bunch of unfinished songs so, i decided to try and do something with them. this is the first one done. thanks to Heuristics Inc. for the loopage! Credits: Heuristics Inc 'Dark Matter Streams' loops and Cystem

This is a 15 min revised version of my live stream done for A Midsummer Night's Germination. minus the 'live' playing, which there wasn't too much of anyway. and, to be honest, the little bit there was kind of sucked. no, really, it did. thanks to all the participants, it was a midsummer night to remember!

WARNING! your ears may become sticky from the too-sweet and syrupy sounds in this "holiday" mix. there're enough honeyed harmonies here to glaze a whale! i debated whether or not to put this up (it's a little too "new age" for me). then thought i might be able to pass it off as a holiday tune (except for the title). keep the vomit bag handy!

thanks once again to the M12 gang for the loops! Credits: The Majestic Twelve Guest Artist & Cystem

This be the "standard" song structure mix. Thanks again to M12 for the boppin' loops! Credits: The Majestic Twelve Guest Artist & Cystem

This is the 3rd mix i started with the M12 loops but, obviously, it's the 1st one "finished". i titled it "Building Crosses" because the loops in the beginning sound to me like some building crosses, NOT because i wish anyone harm... Credits: The Majestic Twelve Guest Artist and Cystem

Awesome loops from Don! Didn't know how to catagorize this one. Any suggestions are welcome. Credits: Don Campau Guest Artist mix and Cystem

I cropped a portion of one of Dave's drum loops for this mix and it so reminds me of DEVO's cover of "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", although the mix itself sounds nothing like it at all! Thanks to Dave for the mind bending loops! Credits: Dave Fuglewicz Open Loops and Cystem

Used 25 different tracks of Omni's drum loops sliced, diced, pureed and stacked together. mmmmmmmmm... a nice recipe for disaster! Luckily, it turned out just fine. IMO.

Loops by Buzzsaw & The Shavings and Cystem. not sure if this qualifies as trance but, that's where i put it. Thanks much to Buzzard for the unique loops! Credits: Buzzsaw & The Shavings open loops & Cystem

This is the new "polished" version.
Loops by Buzzsaw & The Shavings and Cystem. this is the rockin' version that doesn't really "rock" until the end. my initial intention with this mix was to use Buzzy's "Humvox" loops to make a barber shop quartet type of thing. as you can hear, it didn't quite work out that way.
enjoy. Credits: Buzzsaw & The Shavings open loops and Cystem

Loops by q-cut and cystem. Something on the mellow side. Credits: q-cut guest artist and cystem

Loops by Q-Cut and Cystem. I stole the title ( a.k.a. Attack of the Mushroom People) from an old japanese sci-fi movie that really freaked me out when I was a little kid (I think it was the lo-pitched laughing thing). Thanks to Q-cut for the damn fine loops! Credits: Q-Cut guest artist and Cystem
