	HIAB-X	In all the ways that everything connects, I'm so glad that you became Bent! and I chanced upon your tunes that were destined for my CD collection to then form part of the soundtrack of my life that hardwired itself into my memories. Thanks for your all beautiful contributions to the history of melodic noises. Hiab-X   Posted by HIAB-X on Tuesday, January 08, 2008 - 8:08 PM [Reply to this]

	chris	Yay Bent go on! Good work guys - you're the unsung heroes of electronica! Look forward to the best of, maybe some fan influence can choose the tracklist or something???

	Dj Tracy	Thanks for the Download! And waiting patiently for the Greatest Hits! I love your music..   Posted by Dj Tracy on Wednesday, January 09, 2008 - 6:17 AM [Reply to this]

	CHriStOphE DEsCHampS	Hello Bent I'm à Big fan of your music. I just downloaded Your Dj Mix (Thanks a lot) and i was wondering if there is a possibility to get it (to buy it) in a better bitrate (256 or 320) Bravo et merci! Christophe (Paris)   Posted by CHriStOphE DEsCHampS on Wednesday, January 09, 2008 - 10:04 AM [Reply to this]

	BENT	Thank you, all! Very kind words from you. Yes, Mr Cactus, it'll be a bit like that.. :-P but think of it more of a DVD with more unreleased stuff (we do have about 250 tracks in our archive) demos, track notes, photos, behind-the-scenes footage, and a proper write up on the whole thing so far... It's a fingers crossed from us too, it takes a bit of planning! Oh, and if you want a higher bit-rate of the mix, I'm sure I can sort it out :-)   Posted by BENT on Wednesday, January 09, 2008 - 1:23 PM [Reply to this]

	Dj Tracy	MEE TOO!! I would love a higher bit rate copy. Catnip kisses.   Posted by Dj Tracy on Wednesday, January 09, 2008 - 9:07 PM [Reply to this]

Thanks for making life sound so sweet over the past 10 years....S**t!!!! i feel old all of a sudden!!!..

	Dj Tracy	Is there any way to get a track list for this? I'm actually DYING to know what one song in particular is.. It's directly before "Situation" (@ around 42 minutes in) It's amazing...must have it. (vocals are "If I had to do it over..if I had to do it again...) I would be forever grateful for a reply. Meow.   Posted by Dj Tracy on Sunday, January 20, 2008 - 5:52 AM [Reply to this]

	BENT	We never did a song called "situation"! Don't know that one... hmmmm..... hhehehehe! Have you been at that cat nip? :D   Posted by BENT on Sunday, January 20, 2008 - 1:42 PM [Reply to this]

	Dj Tracy	No silly.....it's on your Dj mix....the one you have posted here (I don't know if it's one of your songs, or someone else's - I've never heard it before...and I don't actually have all your albums - I just get 12" tracks of your stuff) the song I'm interested in comes in at 39:44 It is just magical....I may actually die if I don't get it. (wouldn't want THAT now would we???) and there is a song directly after it....which has samples from "Situation"..by Yaz and YESSSS I'm on the nip. Been to rehab.....can't help m'self.   Posted by Dj Tracy on Sunday, January 20, 2008 - 10:37 PM [Reply to this]

	Grandeza Tiago Grandeza	Thanks for 10 years of dreams!!! You've created some of the best melodies and tunes ever!!! And I'm so glad I had the chance to see you guys live a couple years ago here in Brazil... You probably won't remember, but at the time, before the gig, I met you and said "thanks for making my days brighter". And well - thanks for making these 10 years brighter!!!   Posted by Grandeza on Thursday, February 14, 2008 - 7:41 PM [Reply to this]

	Nick	The first time I heard Bent, I was nineteen... it was summer, I was in an amusement park I'd been going to every summer for all my life, and 'Always' was playing as I was walking off my favorite rollercoaster in the park. It was a manifestation of all my feelings that summer; it was bright and youthful, it was charged and brilliant, it was soaked in a sense of invincibility and prosperity. The song, to me, was the best analogy to the phrase "the world is my oyster". ....I asked everyone in the vicinity what the song playing was, and no one knew; I was crushed. ....But as the sky faded to dusk that night, that song kept playing in my head, and I couldn't help but feel changed. I had the greatest sense of comfort and purpose knowing that that song existed and was out there for me to find. Immediately, 'Always' was the song I had always been searching for, and knowing that it had been created was the greatest sense of assurance; someone out there CAN create incredible music! It embodies everything I love in sound... I still feel it's the perfect song. ....Days after I left the amusement park, my friend gave me a mix CD that he had received from a friend, saying "you'd like this more than me", and 'Always' was the first song on the CD. I nearly fainted - I found the song, I found you. :-)........Don't ever stop making the best music on Earth. And should the music someday (hopefully faraway) come to an end, you are always in my heart.   Posted by Nick on Tuesday, March 10, 2009 - 11:31 PM [Reply to this]
