Hey Paul

> what they've done is ok, but musically, to me, it's pants.

I can imagine a lot of people don't care for 8bit music.  I like it but not
all of it.

Im not sure that there is any real interaction with those sequencers.

But the thing I love about the Atomic clip is the enthusiasm and enjoyment.
They look like they are at the same party as everyone in the crowd, and this
is refreshing.

I think the typical rock show has evolved into a very strictly defined
agenda: "you have come here to look and listen to how cool we are; pay your
money then fuck off".  Clearly this is a generalisation and belittles many
of the bands that I love.  There is a place for the typical "them & us" rock
show, but it is great when you see someone who is performing but equally,
just another pleb from the audience.  Its very punk..

> To each their own though.

For sure, dude..

Btw - we all want more videos from your band..!!!!
