Hi Eric, Your views echo my own on this subject.  Interesting to hear your
stuff popping up in different places. I think the sub loop in "Stole" by
Kelly  Rowland is one of yours.
I'm also positive that  in my XBox version of "SplinterCell" (ok I'm just a
big kid) I can hear some of your Metamorphosis loops..........it's just
after you get killed and your body hits the ground.
