The Best Is Yet To Come: Hi Fi Play | Lo Fi Play | Download (6.3 MB)

I think it's amazing how Seven runs around in stealth mode all the while keeping the sinister musical genius hidden from everyone's view. I just heard The Best Is Yet To Come from The Tic Tok Men and found my mouth on the floor. I also have these little creepy bugs that keep scurrying up and down my back and arms that when I look, they aren't there. So I have to blame this on the music. I believe there is a sinister ulterior motive to this music. It has been designed to reach the subconsciousness and plant suggestions of pleasure and contentment there. Feelings of wow, dreams and complacency. While listening the subject looses all interest in going to work or taking care of any other responsibilities. This track has depth and is crafted as to tell a story. Nothing that is black and white, but rather subliminally. Sounding lushly organic, it's almost hypnotic. I wonder if Tic Tok knows the secret to which synaptic neurons spark these experiences in the human psyche. An acute sense of alchemy that develops a following which travels beyond the victims awareness of what is happening.

Yes I think there is a sinister motive here and I must tell the world before it is too late. Tic Tok Men is poised to take control of your being and should be stopped! If not stopped, we will have everyone plugged into their headphones and disregarding their jobs, families, and all responsibility. This could very well lead to total economic collapse!

What ever you do, DO NOT LISTEN to The Best Is Yet To Come. Spare yourself and your family! Spread the word!

OK, I must admit. After listening to The Best Is Yet To Come I decided to telecommute today. And I've been listening to this over and over. I also have been making my way down The Tic Tok Men's page and I am in serious need of a remedy. I am hooked, and I can't see my way out of this.

The The Best Is Yet To Come is only a prelude to what the rest of the music on the page is going to do to you.

My best advise is shut your computer off and run! That is if you know what's good for you. This music is so infectious, you will not even be drawn from your computer to eat or drink. Which brings up a greater concern than economic collapse. Soon you will be dehydrated and in need of serious medical attention.

If your reading this, it's not too late. Please, what ever you do, do not start down this road! It is extremely difficult if not impossible to recover.

Save yourselves!

I guess I'll have to import the comments!

I managed to get another pair of ears for the infection. Here's what was said:

Interesting start sound quite 80's (but there is nothing wrong with that). I think is must be all that FM synthesis. I like the vocal samples they add interest and focus to the track. I like the synth work and the drum programming but I feel that the sound could be improved by using diffrent sound's because it sound a bit clinical at the momment, but that is down to personal taste.
I'm now 4:00 into the track and I'm still intrested in it. Is that electric guitar I hear.....oh yes. The track has pick up alto more now the add sounds really uplife the track and I take back some of what I said about the clinical sound it much more organic now.... Anyway that will do because the tracks finshed.

Thanks

Hey David!

I meant to say I received your CDs and apoligize for not listening yet. I have been busy going through all the hoops to buy a house. Man what a headache!

I think I'll pop the CD in right now!

It's been a couple weeks since I have listened to this, and I must say, this is still a fantastic piece! This is definitely as good or better than anything I've heard from any "signed" artist. It never seems to get tiring. I'm amazed that more people aren't listening and leaving comments. I suspect that most readers on this board are avoiding me like a pest or something and it really has no reflection on this track. If they listened, I'm sure most would agree that this is a really incredible track.
