All music has been composed and performed by Greg Pappas pinktofupony The remixes were done by Yibbon and Brandon Invergo I want to thank them especially for taking the time to make these remixes. Also, Kmode and The World Doesn’t End were previously released on a netlabel. I recommend checking those releases out as well. label.idmforums

You can directly contact me greg@pinktofupony.com for any questions pertaining to this DIY release. Another special thanks goes to Nathan (Permuated) and Ben (Benwaa) for always helping me out whenever I needed it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [ " Hansuru " I would strongly recommend "ZXYZXY" to everyone, the remixes done here are ABSOLUTELY DEVINE. To tell you the truth, I can barely think of "a" boring moment on this release. The whole album is just so sublime.

Except for "Taisaku" which truly hold the perfect balance of noise intensity. Nothing really distorted or heavy but sill a great deal of noise. "Sullen (Northen Implosion Mix)" on the other hand will just keep you floating to nowhere land, "Kyomu" is weird(ly) good and "Sxy" goodness... hearing is believing.

If you are reading this, by all means download it and give it a thorough listen. Probably one of the release which hold the best mix of various elements I've heard in a long time

" C.A.B " on the other hand is totally different to all " Greg's " work. With tracks exceeding 15 and 21 mins. This title will leave you breathless.

The opening track is simply " ABOVE ALL " and " OUT OF THIS WORLD " where one can think the likes of " Caspian " ~ " My Beloved " ~ " Note. " and " Le Noise ".

Crashing guitars, distortions and high riffs notes that eventually vanished in extreme distant noises and drive you to close your eyes.

" C.A.B " for sure incorporates tons of emotions. Ever listened to a track and when its about to end you suddenly feels like you gasping for air and the need of shaking you head.

It's what I would usually describe as overempowering and knock-out sound.

Well... like said, lie down and listen. This download also includes small wordpad as to the " credit " and " the reason" for this release. Be sure to read it ]. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    ZXYZXY’s latest work CAB is exceptional! Though this is to be expected, considering the album concept :(

    In any case I believe he’s a very talented musician, and any independent label would be lucky to sign him.

    Aw, ha. Well, then I guess I better make a great follow up that isn’t a concept then.

    Yorgo… I don’t know if you tried [ Hansuru ] but I seriously think you should give it a go if you haven’t yet.

    I’m listening to it as I type this… and that’s my second listening of Hansuru. Thanks Greg!
