Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Thanks Ed! We've kind of stalled over the last month or two with one of the sax players heading to the UK for 3 weeks and Pakehendrix deciding to up-sticks to Singapore but hopefully we'll get back on track early in the new year.

Yeah, definitely. We've got a couple of potential replacement options but it's really sad to break up a team that's working well. :(

Oh man, I love the sound of that in-progress track. Love the drums.
You got skills that literally pay the bills, Ben.
