| ________________________________ [Jul 1,2008 9:03pm - Martins ""] That'd be a sweet sample. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 1,2008 9:47pm - thuringwethil ""] done and done. I fuckin sampled it the morning after I found the link. Destination Ableton Live |

| _______________________________________ [Jul 2,2008 10:22am - thuringwethil ""] ya think? They are a Time Warner company |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 2,2008 10:23am - thuringwethil ""] actually that's the AP, dude |
| _______________________________ [Jul 2,2008 10:29am - aril ""] do it then. AP sucks. i was thinking the SAME thing when I heard those on CNN on Monday. how it would sound awesome as an intro to a metal song. Would sound awesome of The Chasm got a hold of some too |
| _________________________________ [Jul 2,2008 11:14am - Martins ""] I think it would have to be the most crushing intro after that kind of sample. Like the kind of thing the Aztecs would have played while they were doing the sacrifices if they listened to metal. |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 2,2008 11:16am - thuringwethil ""] I just find it a shame that for all of the AWESOME anthropolical field recordings, so much has been lost to history but hahaha, I can just imagine some dude trying to hold a mic up to the Aztec priest while he's being led himself to the sacrificial block |

| _______________________________ [Jul 2,2008 11:56am - aril ""] Always pissed me off that the Conquistadores razed the Aztec Capital and built Mexico City right on top of it. So much stuff was lost. Same with the Mayans and Incas. IN THE NAME OF CHRISTIANITY! |

Mortiz ""] There are 2 mexican bands that used similar whistles and/or pipes/flutes in their music, one is EK(thrashy melodic death) and the other Xibalba(traditional Black Metal), check them out, if you can't get them just message me, as a kid I used to play with similar whistles, they were kind of popular when I was young... |
| _______________________________________ [Jul 24,2008 3:52pm - thuringwethil ""] I think I'm just gonna have to go to Mexico City to get one. It'd be worth it. The noisemaker sounds like an agonized scream. |

The only reason the 200 Spaniards were able to conquer Tenochtitlan was that they had the aid of the serfs of the Aztecs, who rebelled against their masters. Christianity = Liberalism = Consumerism = Anarchy FUCK THAT |
