I added various harmony and melodic stuff until I ran out of ideas, which was about halfway through the piece. The original "breakbeats" file (as you called it) is about 6 minutes 30 seconds long, and my version chopped it roughly in half, to about 3 and a quarter minutes. If you or anyone cares to hear the results, the files are here: Thorsten Wilms, This and That (original file): http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/ogg/thorsten-wilms_this_and_that.ogg Thorsten Wilms and Steve Doonan, This and That (the version with my additions): http://www.xscd.com/pub/music/ogg/thorsten-wilms-and-steve-doonan_this_and_that.ogg -sd -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- "The trouble with leaving a home is that one never entirely does so.
