If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.

Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

It reminds me of the Crazy Bus title screen thing.

* A large group of people conversing in a room. A young woman's laugh is heard prominently at the very beginning of the track and is repeatedly throughout the track in the background.

  • A voice is thought to be saying "Alpha and Omega" over a loudspeaker at the beginning and end of the track. The pitch slows down sharply. (0:07)

  • Vocals over a telephone or walkie talkie which have been sliced and rearranged in the style of Telephasic Workshop (2:30, 5:38)
    • [Reversed, 01:21] The radio banter seems to say "Retract... [incoherent], or possibly "buy corporate, napster (reversed)"... we have two divers" followed by a British voice (1:32): "Yeah... California... You can do what you want... [incoherent; if you don't want two labels?]" followed by two children: "one forty, nine hundred and nine pounds (ÂŁ 140909)... okay, is that cash?" (reversed, 1:48)

  • A shrill sound reminiscent of a pig squeal, followed by very faint children's voices (3:33)

  • A young woman gasping (4:15, 4:25, 4:35, 4:45, 4:55, 5:05, 5:43)

  • A woman's voice is heard saying "Yellow!" (4:17)

  • Panned slightly to the right, a thin, whispery sound existing in the high treble frequencies seems to be saying "that's the one" (repeatedly from 4:44 until 5:43)[1]

  • Indistinct speech (5:10)

  • Ascending metallophone-like notes, allegedly sampled from the video 'Spider Engineers' (6:03, 6:07; not confirmed)[2]

  • A man's back masked voice saying "I'm a God-darned Satanist, and, if I wanted, I'd be in this business too." (6:30)

  • Reversed male vocals with room ambience (6:39)

Wild Mass Guessing is fun.

Huh. I can import that midi into Guitar Pro, and thus have tablature of most of it. Unfortunately, a lot of the really low notes were cut out. But at least 80% of it is there.

You probably experience thousands of states of mind each day, more than there are adjectives to describe. Let's say you didn't eat for eight hours and someone handed you a nice, cold, ripe apple, then CHOMP! You might experience many states of mind in these few moments: hunger, the thought of what to eat, your feelings towards the person before and after they gave you the apple (colored by your hunger), the thought, "Yes, that's right; that apple is history, babe!", the biting of the apple and the taste sensation, choking and coughing and spewing out the apple because you were too hungry to chew it properly, or the embarrassment of having predigested apple all over the shirt of the person who gave it to you — I don't know!

I only know BOC from their remix of a cLOUDDEAD song about roadkill, so I'm kind of expecting a lot here.

So far they're delivering. :D

Here I am, attending the course that teaches profession completely different from my previous education. The thought that is stuck in my head? "So that's how people multiclass!"

I'm confused...the station in Boston with the 7 inside a circle isn't ABC?
