The Fast Chicken Likes Kiwi Tunes
It's always great to find glowing reviews of tracks from your label. Want to support new Kiwi music? The rock on over to TMet Recordings and buy some online.



"Ryan Tregurtha - I Have a Dream. Liberal use of the Martin Luther King Jr speech, and with a driving, hard trance backing. Without the speech, it would be a good track. With the speech - which is quite quiet - its VERY good. Would fit into a Tidy, Nuklez etc mix without anyone even noticing, and would get a full house of 'hands in the air' if played by the like of Lisa Lashes. DAMN GOOD. 9/10 on the 'going hard out at the gym' scale :)
Mr Sketchy and My Steady - Zulu Nation. Nice piece of Psytrance (well, IMO) - sounds somewhat Astral Projection-like, which is a good thing.
Chelfyn - The Evil Plans of George W Bush III (radio edit). I had this previously, from a few years ago when they first released it, but with the recent events, its rather relevant :). Good track, tho kinda 'light' after the driving sound of 'I Have a Dream'. Still a favourite track, tho, with a good sense of humour.
Waterboy - One Ring. Uplifting trance track, with liberal samples from Lord of the Rings (wow, surprise!). Works really well.
Echo - I Hear You're Leaving. This is the track I went to TMET for (cheers to the Mistress). Its a nice, mellow, cafe-style track. Would go down well at about 2pm after a hard night out.... Shades of Rhian Sheehan and Epsilon Blue.


All of those above are in the order of 'Banging full on' to 'mellow cafe', tho the drop between Waterboy and Echo is a little much to have them in the same playlist :).

Overall, I'd rate all of them 4/5 to 5/5. Nice!"
