Uncanny, an original instrumental digital song by Nik Furious. This is the tenth and final part of a ten part Beatcast series called Nik Furious: Then and Now. This week is my Now recording that I'm the most proud of out of all of my modern songs. The mix, the melody, the beat - it all works for me. It was written and recorded in late 2007 as a Christmas gift for the AudioShocker's Justique.
