Makke, you practically are the Trolls track

(err, thanks and stuff)

To be honest, I wasn't too excited when Juha approached me with the idea of adding some vocals to the "Trolls" arrangement - I had purchased a copy of "Pac Man Fever" by Buckner & Garcia a few weeks before that and was afraid the song could end up being too cheesy (even though I loved "Pac Man Fever", the album is EXTREMELY cheesy). However, I was in for a very pleasant surprise when I heard Makke performing the track for the first time! The lyrics and the whole concept behind the track are really clever IMO. Well, just about two more weeks and you can all see / hear it for yourself...

Haha, yeah. Pac Man Fever is one of the cheesiest albums ever! I have trouble listening to it with out getting half-sick to my stomach.

Thanks! It turned out really well, and I learned just how high pitched I can sing before my head explodes.

You obviously had some range left, since your head is resolutely unexploded

Ah. True. I think the closest I've been to actual head-exploding, now that I think of it, was when I almost fainted while driving 130 km/h on the highway, singing along to "Run to the Hills".

Damn you, Bruce Dickinson! Damn you!

He's saving it for Echo... right, Makke?

Oh yes. I'm buying 10 tubes of helium to be able to hit the high notes on that one.

With hydrogen you'd get even higher...and make sure to have a cigarette nearby to get some extra ...eemm ...warmth into the recording

Woo! I just place a pre-order at Synsoniq!

*happy

I got a newsletter today from Synsoniq and pre-ordered my copy now:

Very cool material for our radio as well.

Hi Jan,

order placed!
Best wishes,

Sooo... when will it be available for pre-order on http://www.c64audio.com?

While I'm located in Germany, I'd still very much prefer to give my money to Chris instead of that other place...

Oh man, how on earth have I missed all these news about Immortal 3..? Tracklisting looks promising to say at least. No previews yet or am I just blind? I guess I'll soon have to order a copy from Chris.
