That of course is impossible, even if they were all vampires. How long is their longest?

And don't give me any more stupid smarmy links please if you would be so kind. Explain, if you can, how this is possible.

They use computers to create loops, paulstretch the sounds (that's where you slow audio down by a very large amount without changing the pitch), and other things like that. You could even program your computer to write out sequences for you and take out the writing element too.
