you have an amazing talent for layering music with well matched textures and tones. this is just so creative and the technique is flawless. great job. gabe
Mike, your stated "little extra" creepy was a GREAT EXTRA for X Files. Wonderful job! And an especially appropriate song for any tension/dramatic movie/TV/other production.
This track should be on a movie for sure excellent song cuz !

Words can do not much to describe how good this is, all the dramatic ambience waving in awesome layers. Cinematic, MD trademark top notch production work. X-files lives.

Production second to none. This really is top class in every way. Brings back memories of watching the TV series. Fabulous. You've used all your technology in a wondorous way. This is suitably creepy and enthralling in equal measure.

Excellent version, love the additional creepiness and the superb arrangement. I think this track is way better than the original. If they ever shoot more episodes or movies then they should definitely come to you for the music! Amazing work.

A great choice, tension-packed, fearsome, as if an alien abduction were imminent. You've managed to take this already cool sountrack to a higher level, superb work, very special!
