I sort of assumed that everyone had seen this already. I'm guessing major trout.

Trout or not. . . Trout or no, I don't think we have been as thorough with the second hallucimill song. The first song is a reading of the text in the page with a morse code, but the second song, referenced by clicking the H underneath the images may have more to it.
The text above changes and seems to indicate an auditory clue. I have listened to it and written it down- noodled over the words for a while but found nothing yet. Part of me thinks that each section must have some puzzle involved, either now or later on. The second Hallucimill song and the net-circuit page seem to be dressing, but then again. . .
The jumble of the word Hallucimill itself is a prevalent theme on the page. I tried restructuring it and the only sensible sentence I came up with was: U Call Him Ill. I don't know, something about Docs perhaps?

There also seems to be some background noise you can vaguely hear under the main voice. I'm not familiar enough with sound programs to be able to see if there's something that can be pulled out. Anyone else try it?

I've tried reversing (all I've had time for) with nothing interesting. I'll try a few more things in a bit.

I can take a closer look at this file, but I've been over it pretty well and haven't noticed anything special...but I'll dig in again tonight.

Solved! Arggh! I can't believe it. My first ever ARG solve and its a trout!
Here is the text of the song with the special ending exhortation.
Quote:
Hallucimill Hallucimill
How about a pill
Enjoy the fun
Enjoy the feel
Let us break the seal
Hallucimill Hallucimill
Come and get your fill
We provide with greatest ease
A way to catch the breeze
Come on now, try a cool thing. Come on! Bring yourself to Hallucimill. Relax. Enjoy. Enjoy!!!
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you take the first letter of each word of the exhortation at the end you get. C-O-N-T-A-C-T-C-O-B-Y-T-H-R-E-E
I just can't believe this easy one took longer than the morse code.

And, one last piece fitting:
Hear what you are seeing!
Listen to the song. THe song that echoes the words you see has the morse code.
See what you are hearing!
Look at the words of the other song. Message.
Stick a fork in these guys.
