Anyone else hear about the kid who was hit with a brick and stabbed for his copy of “GTA5” on the night of its release. I think that's a pretty strong argument for the relationship between violent media and actual violence in life, although... I do understand that you could easily argue that that's just one person's actions. Personally I can see both sides of the discussion those who say it's a harmless outlet of stress and that most people don't associate the acts in their games with any kind of reality outside of them BUT I find myself swaying more and more to the opposite side which suggests that over a course of time you kids are being desensitized towards violence by playing games like GTA, begin to associate with it and are even conditioned into thinking in a new way or even copying acts in the games. I know that's an old cliche but I feel each image and act is a drop in the bucket which permanently stains the psyche. For instance I know the first time I heard "gangsta rap" I was upset by the nihilistic hate of it and violence described by it, fast forward a few years and I didn't even flinch at the same lyrics and was singing along with them. Also the first time I saw "Natural Born Killers" I was so disgusted by the way it glamorised violence I turned it off. So what was the turning point between my initial reactions and then the later acceptance? I can only blame a cycle of progressively violent media, which is ironic to some degree as that's what the Oliver Stone film is actually about. Some reports say violent crime is down over all but others say it's increasing and I'm not so sure these games are all that innocent anymore? What do you think?

Right after the first few notes of the single release Intoxication off the album "10 Tracks", one hears the unmistakable Funspreader-style.This time it is the light and catchy melodies that are accompanied with a slightly hypnotizing touch. The name of the track also derives from this. With 15 songs, the single takes the listener on a journey made of phat club tracks and beautiful, atmospheric sounds. Thanks to the artists Whitebeat, Aerotrancer, Electro Kartell, Paul da Joke, Impulsound, ASKII, Torsten Kugler and Anton Suchorukov, the finest of remixes and special edits are offered. Funspreader did not miss out on the opportunity to put its hands to the task and to contribute one of its own mixes. It is interesting to note the results which are musically presented by individual coverage of the theme. Each of these tracks captivates via its own peculiarity. Despite the sound variety, the attributes of vitality, optimism and good mood are continually accentuated. Thought-provoking energy that lets you forget everyday life. A compilation arises such as otherwise not to be found and heard. At this repertoire, the DJ scene will get its money's worth as well. For the best possible final touches, none other than Dominik de Leon was commissioned, who leveraged the track Intoxication to perfection. The previous releases of Funspreader have already been well-received by the fan base. Due to its qualities, the current single will infect each listener anew and lift his mood.
