But what about people who don't have the software/ability to do that?

Oh! They could just click this:

Thanks for the link. Think I prefer it backwards.

I like To France but this could be a whole new world for unpopular Oldfield tracks: Foreign Affair in reverse, Romance at 1/8 the original speed. Stuff like that.

Wow. There could be a real track made out of this. It would be spot on quality.

Reminds me a little of Ghosts by Siobhan Donaghy in a way (I think it's mostly the backwards vocals, but Siobhan has a vaguely similar tone to Maggie Reilly too)

Yeah, very nice! This is something I actually tend to try with all of my own tracks, as I've noticed it can sometimes yield really interesting results. Incidentally, that idea was inspired by Mike's use of a backwards tune in a Incantations.

What? A backwards tune? Can you elaborate please?

Oh dear, I'm sorry, I never noticed I was asked to elaborate!  :D

And I'm afraid also that I can't really point out the exact place on Incantations where this occurs. But definitely, one of the many themes on it is a reversed version of another one. I can't remember exactly where it is and I'm afraid I'm not at all in the mood to listen to Incantations to find out right now, but it's actually quite obvious once you know it, as it does sound rather strange (but awesome) and not like something anyone - even Mike - would purposefully compose.

Maybe one of the other members can help me out here and point out the exact timing? I think it might be in part 3 but I'm really not sure.
