Analysts: GMS Involved In "97%" of 2002 Albums Shocking news came from London last week, with the latest quarterly figures from the National Trance Trends Thinktank showing that GMS are "as common as shit in a field". The study found that in addition to their two artist albums this year, various compilation tracks by themselves and their collaborations means that it's very hard to find an album released in 2002 with no GMS on it. "We kept going through CD's," said the NTTT's Richard Potter, "saying 'does this have any GMS on it? Yes, look there, it fucking does' and then throwing it on the pile."

Potter continued: "This year we've seen GMS' Best Of compilation, their new artist album, the 1200 mics project, plus a rush of remixes, collaborations and re-releases on various collections released around the world."
The problem has been spreading. Last week, 26-year old TJ Duncan tried to kill himself after he found out that the banging stuff on recent Alchemy compilations by Soundaholix turned out to be yet another GMS side-project. The NTTT also found that the problem had spread to fileshare networks on the internet. "There are dozens of instances where a mp3 by say, Infected Mushroom or Hallucinogen would end up being some pap GMS unreleased rubbish," said the Thinktank's New Media specialist Shawn Napping. "But this year it's gone silly: download Spider Man The Movie on Kazaa, and it's a fucking GMS tune; download any Britney Spears and that'll be GMS again; and try and download a playstation 2 game and it's a fucking awful mix of GMS intro's, that feature just the bass and kick. It's awful, and it goes on for thirty minutes." Potter has a theory. "I believe something happened to GMS after the others left and it was just Riktam and Bansi. Since that happened, their same-each-time sound has spread like a fart in a room with no windows, and we're seeing this viral spread of their music, encompassing a plethora of different names. If you look at that behaviour, it's not human behaviour. Biologically, GMS are a virus." GMS were unavailable for comment, though their agents said they were "currently working on some new material." When we asked what it would be like, their agents said "listen to any of their other stuff. It will probably be a lot like that."
