Yeah, I should have submitted this piece as a wav file or something with a little more quality like 96 Kbps or even 128 Kbps. I just wanted to be consistent with my other submissions. Not only that, if people wanted it with better sound quality, they'll have to contact me. Besides, I'm posting a lot of my stuff for people to download for free.

I love amen breaks! They just have a certain energy to them when partnered with the right tempo although they are used a lot. Really, the guitar is just a sample I made/recorded in ReCycle and then converted into a REX file, which is the main way to get samples into Reason. The sample is from a riff my friend made awhile back that I never got a chance to use in a composition I saw fit. The lyrics are by a friend of mine who goes by the alias Brother K. He�s a youth group minister and a great Rock singer. Lol �Speak out�Has the Lord redeemed you? Speak out�Tell them He has saved you.� The rest are just a bunch of ambient bass sounds I used in the SUBtractor Polyphonic Synthesizer with altered strings.

I�m glad someone finally gave appreciation to this style of music. Thanks ZoB! Are you ready to start the alliance?

"Cool dark dnb"

submission: ParagonX9 - Chaoz Devotion

date: August 18, 2004

Another great song by Jermain. Really professional this one ;-)
This submission is tecnically superior to your first submissions BUT...there was something in "Shadows in the Sky","Falling Demons" & "Danger Ahead" that i couldn't find in this submission...
I really don't know...Mmmmmm...maybe this more professional DnB, too dark...yeah,probably your first submissions were hyper cool tunes with catchy Dnb drums and not pure DnB...an hybrid DnB...we can call it "Chaoz 'n Bass" :-)
Yes Jermain, your music is becoming perfect and professional,it's great music but i will be happy to heard a Shadows in the Sky II :-)

Author's Response:

Thanks zer0 =D

I agree 100% with you zero...
I think that is the problem why my amount of downloads are much lower than my first submissions previous year...
I dont know but it seems that those simple melodies like in Danger Ahead and the other old tracks had a special influence on the listeners...
And I dont know if i can still make those kind of simple melodies,
Its like those were the only tunes for that style...
I will try to make some more of my older Paragon styles...
But I also think my skills are now too proffesional to make those kind of tunes again, but its worth a try...

Thanks man, Finally now I understand the possible reason of my reduced amount of downloads ... : )

U got really amazing music skills evil dog :-)
How I said in a BBS post the AP in my opinion is dying, seriously!
It's full of lame-ass bastards who vote low on the best submissions to have their shitty stuff at the weekly #1!
Me and Dreamscaper,we're working on an Audio Portal Alliace (maybe called "Ap Resistance", "Shin Audio Portal" or "The Gatecrashers") and we need you with us ;-)
What do u think?!
