Has anyone heard the slow down of that little guy's tune, You Smile? This guy slows it down 8 times and it sounds better for it. Its got waves washing over, stretched out notes, and a sort of eeriness to it. I have yet to hear what the song is supposed to sound like. Here's a link.

Judging by the clip it sounds effects laden.

I downloaded the program the guy used to make this and made a 20 minute version of gucci manes lemonade. It was awesome.

I'm gonna slow down a D.R.I. track tonight.

it'll sound like
