Sweet, downloading now.

EDIT: are you working towards putting out an album, or just doin' your thang?

I am developing an album, but not with these songs. This is just practice.

Cool...sounds better than practice, I say. I quite like this tune; hard to go wrong with your sister's voice, though!

The drums (especially the snare) sound beautiful, crisp and huge. The vocal has such depth and sits so well in the mix. The performace and the mix sound like labors of love.

More like labours of trying desperately to save this dying beast.

I just grabbed this, will come back for the production diary.

Always, always looking forward to a new song by you, Kim!

I really liked that song. and kool notes. its interesting to read the life of how a given song was done. and you hit the nail on the head, vary massive attack. but i dig it. although i will say i think the break down with the vox near the end could use just a bit more looping / and tap delay. (like a feauge where u here the one bit and the next starts looping a few beets later) like it makes me think of a scene in a movie with flash backs from some LCD test subject from the CIA. (ok so thats random... i was just watching MI5). anyways, nice work.

You and your sister make a fantastic team. This is a great listen - your sister's vocals are incredible as always, and I love the effects, esp. the tasteful backwards drum hits and the craziness during the breakdown. Great singer, great producer - let me know when I can buy your album.

I usually hate poppy stuff, but this song was amazing.

And the production diary was nice too; it's cool to see how a song takes it's shape.
Thanks Kim!

That's a pretty good idea. Where were you last week?!
