He released some solo albums like <em>Ride!, Yor_Whiskaz, Mea Turpia, Captain Fish</em>. Every album represents a different music style, so it's hard to decribe his general music genre. He's writing songs and record them by himself in his amateur home studio. Dunder takes influence from bands like <em>Primus, Nirvana, System of a Down, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Metallica, Blues Brothers</em> and many others. In 2007 he started to record and mix songs using only <u>GNU/GPL software on Linux Ubuntu</u> operating system. Actually he's working as a network administrator in IT branch.

| ?:Aesthetic Evidence | "Aesthetic Evidence writes and performs experimental music using recordings of spoken human voices as musical elements and inspiration. They collect these recordings from otherwise uninvolved people using a portable recording station called the <a href="http://www.bringyourownvoice.com">Bring Your Own Voice</a> booth. <br />
Band members play traditional and electronic instruments including software samplers which control the triggering of the voice recordings. In this way, specific combinations of spoken human voice samples become instruments which are played much like a piano, guitar or drums. During Aesthetic Evidence performances, audience members are given the opportunity to become part of the music by donating their voice which is used in real time as part of the music."^^xsd:string |

Originally forming in November of 2005 - in a practice that consisted of founding member and guitarist Paul Staples playing a cover of "Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit" with session drummer Nick Scott - Afghan Banana Stand has gone on to survive several line-up changes, overdoses, and threats. Known for the masterful fusing of Punk, Rock and Ska (minus the horns) elements they have won the heart of...dozens...with a fun and energetic musical experience and electice, sometimes eccentric, live show always showcasing their unique sense of humor. On </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">May 11, 2007</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> they professionally recorded their third EP (the first <em>official</em> release however), <em>Brazilian Bikini Tan</em>, at RockME Studios in Brewer, ME with the assistance of Cory Deshane from the New England School of Communications. The latest EP features 6 songs which generally focuses on their Punk-ish roots (Bloody Saturday Night and Patterson Hill), their Quasi-Ska leanings (Lulu and Nuke the Whales) and their Pseudo-Hard Rock and keen yet politically incorrect edge (Salvia and Polygamy Jimmy). In its present incarnation, the band has been together for a little over a year, but is of course subject to change.</span></p>

| ?:Allison Crowe | "<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #333333">Vincent Van Gogh “</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #333333">loved life so bad, his paintings had twice the color other paintings had”. So sings Jonathan Richman (on <em>Rockin’ and Romance</em>). </span></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #333333">And that tells you something about musician Allison Crowe.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #333333">A modern lover of music, US-based blogger <em>Muruch</em> puts it like this: “</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">There's really no way to convey through mere words how much the music… moves me, or how I want other people to listen to and adore it as much as I do. Allison sings with such an intensity of emotion, it's easy to see why she's often quoted as saying ‘Why <em>music</em>? Why <em>breathing</em>?’... that kind of artistic passion seems extremely rare these days.”</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"I love singing for people," says Allison Crowe. "It's a way to connect and share with others… Communication is crucial. Just being able to do what I do, to write and sing and perform, makes me feel not only alive, but incredibly lucky. Knowing at any moment everything could change, I don't take one second for granted."</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Born 25 years ago, on an island, in the harbour city of Nanaimo, British Columbia, today Crowe’s force reaches ’round the world.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"Allison Crowe has a voice to fall in love with," says <em>Record of the Day, </em>theUK’s essential music industry news service. "She is from Vancouver Island in Canada, descended from Irish and Manx stock. She's exactly the sort of artist who can make serious headway on her own label and that's just what she's doing."</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Eight years of connecting with her audience through concerts and touring led the singer-songwriter to Ani DiFranco and Loreena McKennitt as models for creating her own record label. Since 2003, Rubenesque Records Ltd. has released five Allison Crowe albums: <em>Lisa’s Song+ 6 Songs</em>; <em>Secrets</em>; <em>Tidings</em>, <em>Live at Wood Hall</em>; and <em>This Little Bird</em>. Each has earned great critical acclaim and found heart-felt support. A true grassroots success, all of Crowe’s CDs continue to grow in popular appeal - as her music travels globally via the internet and more traditional distribution channels & media.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“The first thing you notice about Allison Crowe is her voice. Rich and dark, it seems to come from a place most singers can only dream of accessing. Then there are the songs. Filled with raw passion and accompanied by Crowe’s eloquent piano playing,” observes journalist Clodagh O’Connell. When this phenomenon ‘from the islands’ initially reached the mainland, O’Connell puzzled over a defining echo</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">: “Elton John meets Edith Piaf?” </span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">These days</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; COLOR: #b2d1de">, </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Crowe is praised not only as a singularly exciting songwriter and live performer, but, also, as a song interpreter. Her freshly definitive takes on such 21<sup>st</sup> century standards as Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and Joni Mitchell’s “River” are applauded as </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"truly transcendent". <em>Tidings</em>, an innovative mix of traditional carols and songs of joy, peace, and redemption from the secular songbook, is an emerging classic - “music for the season and all time”. </span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">As well as helping launch her second one-hour television special broadcast across Canada, upon its release, Crowe’s <em>Tidings </em>CD was one of only two albums awarded four stars by <em>The Toronto Sun</em> in its holiday CD roundup - the other being <em>The Christmas Collection</em>, an evergreen Frank Sinatra reissue.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“Her voice celebrates the music with a bluesy rock-gospel intensity; her controlled vibrato, silken rasp, and powerful projection rivet your attention. This is no casual background music… be prepared to be amazed,” says Hamline University Professor Of Law - and CD reviewer - Carol Swanson. “Every song radiates sincerity, creative flair, and emotional intensity."</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Of her just-released album, <em>This Little Bird</em>, (which landed on year end top-ten lists from the USA to Sweden), Bob Muller comments: “Allison really comes into her own on this CD - her wonderful songs, supported by her emotive vocals, strong and confident, navigates them with feeling and strength. I mean, it takes a lot of self-confidence to tackle Aretha (Franklin)'s version of 'I Never Loved a Man...' but Allison does and nails it just as good as the <em>Queen of Soul</em> herself. Her piano playing is equally exquisite." </span></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Muller, the veteran keeper of song covers at JoniMitchell.com, (an archive now totaling 2228 wide-spread covers), sums up: “Treat yourself to one of the mightiest talents on the singer-songwriter scene today.”</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Forgoing standard studio enhancement, let alone the sonic trickery so commonplace, from Nanaimo, B.C. to Corner Brook, Newfoundland, (home-bases that span the breadth of Canada), Allison Crowe makes honest, often live, records that outpace a brace of acts produced by the status quo of, both, mainstream, and, indie, marketing. </span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Perhaps that’s only natural for music made with a genuine pulse. Eclectic, too. Allison Crowe is the only rock artist of this generation to share a stage with jazzer, and fellow-Nanaimo-ite, Diana Krall, have a Beatles cover join Dee Dee Ramone, Sylvain Sylvain and punk/alt performers on a Fab Four tribute, blow away Pearl Jammers in Seattle, pair Tori Amos, Counting Crows, Broadway tunes, and Celtic aires with original, melodic, songcraft and, joyously, sound like no one else.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“Allison has a special gift that is so very rare in musicians today. She is true to her mind, heart and spirit,” says </span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Ross Hocker, long-time public broadcaster with NPR affiliate WGTE. Hocker, whose musical taste embraces Thelonious Monk, Bela Bartok and Charles Gounod, calls Allison Crowe's live performance "the most honest, heartfelt, and directly intimate concert in my entire life."</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“In an entertainment world that increasingly genuflects at the altar of instant fame, Crowe seems an anomaly, building her career slowly and carefully," notes Adrian Chamberlain, of Canada’s <em>Times Colonist </em></span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">newspaper.</span></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">"Soulful. Alive. Joyous. Grievous. Real, true, music is what I want to make," says Allison Crowe.</span></div>

Agli inizi del 2006, dopo pochi mesi dalla formazione, autoproducono il loro primo lavoro "The Trabant Ep" che raccoglie ottime recensioni dai siti e dalle riviste specializzate.

<p>Coming from the Tom Morello school of guitar texture, he has learned to challenge the listener by layering unique sounds usually found only in the electric guitar world. As a loop-based acoustic artist he tours with an 80 lb. effects pedalboard - not traveling light compared to most acoustic singer-songwriters. </p>
<p>His live set is where this duality takes flight, as he constructs each song before the audience, piece by piece. Influenced by both 70's progressive rock and conventional songwriters of the day, ARCTIC bridges a world of opposites together. He layers haunting melodies on top of his arrangements, improvising like a jazz artist, intertwining vocals and guitar into a chilled and airy soundscape. </p>"^^xsd:string |

| ?:autonomadic | "Punk band Autonomadic formed in 2002 when guitarist/vocalist Justin recruited drummer Chad and bassist Todd through an ad in a local Seattle newspaper. Influenced by bands such as Social Distortion, Pixies, Hüsker Dü, The Clash, Minutemen, and Descendants, the trio began crafting a new sound based on the music, attitude, and philosophy of the ’80’s underground indie movement.<br /><br />After a year of work, Autonomadic entered Seattle’s Vagrant Studios in July 2003 to record a six-song EP, Sterilize The Poor In Spirit. That summer the band began touring outside of Seattle, playing further and further up and down the West Coast. Over the past three years they've been to almost every major city in the western US and Canada, including Anchorage, Alaska; Calgary, Alberta; Edmonton, Alberta; Los Angeles, California; Portland, Oregon; Reno, Nevada; San Francisco, California; Vancouver, British Columbia; and many smaller towns and cities in between.<br /><br />Autonomadic went back to Vagrant in February 2005 to record their first full-length album, Lies, Fear, and Hate. It includes twenty songs spanning their first three years of existence. The album’s sound is darker, thick with 70’s-era guitar crunch, but still captures the manic drumming, throbbing bass, and intense vocals of Autonomadic’s live shows.<br /><br />Soon after, burned out after three years and too many miles on the road, Autonomadic’s original drummer, Chad, left the band. To replace him, the band turned to Baker, a young drummer versed in a variety of musical styles, but with an abiding passion for punk rock. The band starting back touring in the spring of 2006, and plans to continue promoting their music in cities and towns up and down the West Coast."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Bandidos' Band | "Bandidos' Band was basically a 2 piece project where Iur Snitram & Manus Vieira would record something with two classical guitars while skipping classes. <br />

Once again, the recording material consisted on a cheap soundcard with a computer mic (the 1st track which is some "sort of a ballad" and the 2nd one which is some sort of "psycho-fusion" with some uh... percussive overdubs) and also a mp3 player for the last track because someone was using the computer when our inspiration arrived.. besides the poorer sound quality it is a great "prog" song.<br />

| ?:Ben Johnson | "Some of the best human stories are the hardest to tell – those stories that are acted out inside a person, instead of obviously out in the world.
But the facts of Ben Johnson’s life more than hint at the presence of just such a story. For without some kind of internal movement, how does a self-described “nerd” kid move from wanting to be liked for something other than his musical talent to pursuing a career as a performing singer and songwriter? How does he get from the shelter of his southwestern Missouri farm family to facing down life as a working musician in the Windy City?
The answers to these questions and some you wouldn’t dare to ask can be found in his work, which is at once searching, intimate and subtly powerful. He is already well on his way to meeting his own standard of being “lyrically direct and musically adventurous.” In a review of a performance at the Burning Question Coffeehouse, Tribune journalist George Rawlinson described Ben’s performance as “lightning in a bottle”.
Of the newcomers to the scene, there are always some good writers who may become good performers, some good performers whose material might mature. Once in a great while, along comes a “beginner” who is already nothing short of excellent on every front, and Ben Johnson is that musician. He is classically trained, and holds a music degree from Belmont University. He also has substantial experience in theatrical music direction; he is currently the vocal coach for the touring production of The Lion King. Forever Plaid at the Royal George and God and Country at Victory Gardens are just a few of his many Chicago-area theater credits. He also appears on Wild Ride by Sarah B & The Gist.
Perhaps if Chopin and Tori Amos had a child, and allowed Elton John to raise him, he would play the piano like Ben Johnson. But that wouldn’t explain his voice, which somehow manages to be both flawlessly controlled and emotionally raw at the same time.
"Sometimes I feel like nobody's listening to me until I sing a song. Inside the song I can
freely speak my mind, work out the puzzle, ask for help or give it, break down or stand up. “
Ben celebrated the release of his first EP, Wait, at the Raw Bar & Grill in Chicago in July 2005. The CD is available at cdbaby.com and can be downloaded at iTunes."^^xsd:string |

His first full-length CD – Eskimo In The Sun – was released in 1995, and songs for a second CD are currently in development. Bill is also collaborating on a collection of short stories to be paired with his music.<br />
<br />
Bill began forming rock bands in the mid 1970s as a teen in Pennsylvania. With the power pop quartet Tina Peel, he played on various EPs and other live compilation recordings before moving to Texas and then California. Bill began playing publicly again in the mid-1980s, fleshing out arrangements in small clubs and cafes. In 1991 Bill and collaborator Wayne Ditzel assembled a new band in San Francisco that brought a full, more rollicking foundation to his music. Eskimo In The Sun was released 4 years later with the help of musicians David Fox and Dave Dewey, and the guidance of renowned San Francisco producer Dave Wellhausen (Chris Isaak, Maria Muldaur, others).</span></p>
<p style="" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Eskimo In The Sun has a decidedly alt acoustic, rocking feel, reflective of Bill’s time living in the Southwest and Southern California. The compositions are tightly crafted, with a focus on melody, hook and harmony. Ditzel’s lead guitar work veers from Mark Knopfler through Dick Dale. Lost, loss and longing, and finding a warmer place; these theme weaves through the varied songs on the Eskimo CD. </span></p>
<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Bill is preparing a new CD of material for release in early 2008. As it has been 10 years since the release of Eskimo In The Sun, he is re-issuing the CD ahead of the this new material.</span>"^^xsd:string |

<h3><u>Biography.</u></h3>
<br />
<br />
<font face="Batang"><em>I was born in London Ontario, Canada in 1979. I moved to Windsor Ontario, Canada in 1984, where shortly after I immersed myself in music. Learning multiple instruments, spanning a plethora of genres, I moved through piano, to drums, to brass and woodwinds, to strings, and finally, with the purchase of my first laptop and gear in 1999, I delved into the depths of Electronic Music and Sound Production.<br />
My style was a mixture of Detroit techno, with with some European influence. I first started producing techno in 1999. Having not pressed any of my tracks, I suffered a massive hard drive failure in the summer of 2001, losing all of my work and samples. From 2001 to 2004 there was an obvious break in production, and in 2005 I started working on the album "brb, techno...". That was released in the 4th quarter of 2005 on the now expired indie label, "B.o.K". In 2006 I was amazed to see my self title album "Boeko" take shape, and was released that year.<br />
<br />
I have since moved to the Pacific Northwest, setting down near Portland OR, USA, and also shifted my style to a more down-tempo, deep-house/tech-house sound. I released an advanced copy of my EP "Polar" in the first quarter of 2007. That release was finalized much sooner than I expected.

| ?:Born of Sin | "<p align="left"> <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;"><strong> Born of Sin</strong> was formed in 2001 in the city of Trollhättan, north of Gothenburg, Sweden. The music is traditional Swedish Death metal with some Black influences. In 2003 they recorded their first demo called "The Beheader", but because of trouble with the line-up, the demo was never really released to the public. After some changes in the line-up, Born of Sin recorded their second demo called "Hell will walk the earth"(2004), and they started to do some gigs.</span></p>
<p><strong><font size="2" face="Tahoma"> </font></strong><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;"><strong>Born of Sin hit the streets</strong><br />
In 2004 their first gig was performed in Uddevalla, in the west coast of Sweden, together with Lord Belial. The same year 3 more gigs followed With Transport League, Bestial Mockery, Pathos, Lord Belial, Sabotage, Notre Dame, among others. In 2005 BOS had the honour to share stage with such bands as Dismember, One man army, Impious and of course Lord Belial yet again.</span></p>
<p> <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;"> A lot of work followed and in spring of 2006 BOS joined a tour with Lord Belial and Dark Fortress, visiting Germany, The Netherlands, Switzerland, and Austria. </span></p>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;"><strong>Signing with Unexploded Records</strong><br />
After the tour they got a record deal offer from a Swedish label called Unexploded Records. The band accepted the deal and signed the contract. In the summer of 2006 BOS recorded their first official release as a signed band, a five track MCD called "Let it begin". With some of the old songs together with a couple of new ones, the release is but a taste of the carnage to come. In early 2007 Born of Sin entered the studio yet again to record their full-length album, titled "Imperfect breed of humanity". It will be released in October 2007.<br />

| ?:BROM | "Brom was formed in 2004 consisting of 6 members. Brom set out to rewrite aggresive music and take on songwriting with two singers, not just back and forth singing either but to have one compliment the other. Later with a change of members most of the vocals are sung by Tony.<br />
<br />
Brom has gone through quite a few members keeping Jeff and Kelly at it's core they have stretched themselves to make the project work. Tony and Ricky have been in the group since late 2004 and add to the groups integrity and stage show.<br />
<br />
Brom is currently working on it's new studio in Everett Washington and preparing to record their first full length release.<br />
<br />
Brom currently has a three song EP available, you can pick up a copy for yourself for a BUCK at Everett Tattoo Emporium or two dollars postage paid to your door within the USA outside of the country? Just drop me an email. Bass is done by Tim. We appreciate his efforts and wish him well with his musical endevours.<br />

<strong>"Honestly it is hard to keep a group of serious musicians together. Even the good ones get tired of putting their all into the art when you have guys that are just out there to party, it's fucking hard to carry the slack they create. You have to be able to work with people that realise that band practice is just that and not some expensive clubhouse. I think our DIY attitude and our determination will get us through and we will over come. I haven't lost site of what I am in this for." -Tony Sonic, May 2006</strong>"^^xsd:string |
| ?:Bruce H. McCosar | "<strong><br />
Bruce H. McCosar</strong> is a middle and high school science teacher residing in Gainesville, Florida, USA. He switched to teaching after a career in medicinal chemistry. He is a member of the <em>Mvskoke</em> (Creek) Nation, a Native American tribe originally indigenous to the Southeastern United States.<br />
<br />
As a musician, he plays bass, guitar, Hammond organ, keys, and various drums. Many of these appear on his first album, <em>evolution</em> (Nov. 2006). His second album, <em>handmade</em> (Feb 2007), featured jazz compositions backed by hand percussion instruments only (mainly conga drums).<br />
<br />
And then came <em>La vie sous la mer</em> (Oct 2007). After a long and difficult summer, this album developed as a labor of love. Jazzier, cooler, and stranger than any work he's released before, this album tells eight interconnected stories, and even features a freely-available PDF companion book (for more details, see<a href="http://bmccosar.wordpress.com/album-4-la-vie-sous-la-mer/"> this page</a>).<br />
<h3> </h3>
<h3>Influences</h3>
<br />
Originally, Bruce was a jazz guitarist, and started a Gainesville band known as <em>Rhythm Method</em>. His favorite, and most influential, "mainstream" jazz artists are John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Clifford Brown, Dave Brubeck, and Chet Baker. However, Bruce also loves soul jazz --- Cannonball Adderley, Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGriff --- and jazz influenced rock, for example, Joni Mitchell's <em>Hejira</em> album.<br />
<br />
And today, he has completely abandoned commercial music: he focuses exclusively on Creative Commons licensed works, such as those found on Jamendo (see the list of recommended artists above).<br />
<h3> </h3>
<h3>History</h3>
<br />
Bruce has been recording solo work since 2005. This led him to learn many more instruments: bass, keyboards, conga drums, and traditional drumset. (There are even a few new ones on the horizon.) With the aid of his 8-track recorder, and the power of Linux on his side, he has truly become a one-man band.<br />
<br />
<strong> Main Advantage of being a one-man band</strong>: No arguments or "creative differences" between band members.<br />
<br />
<strong> Main Disadvantage</strong>: Rather difficult to play live shows!"^^xsd:string |

| ?:Bubble-U-Boeuff | "<p>"Bubble-U-Boeuff" is the phonetic approach of a great world leader's name when your dental condition has, for some reason, been reduced to zero.<br />
For reasons beyond explanation, it's also the name we, five 5 musicians from the south-west of the Netherlands, gave to our mission: Improvise on one another's improvisations with moving pictures as an inspirational extra diversion.</p>
<p>The visual aspect is one of the most important motives. This can be movies, documentaries, presentations, theater, light shows, people, anything you can think of. As a matter of fact moving pictures are the sixth member of the group.<br />
While using a rather traditional instrument line up, we play the most diverse sorts of musical atmospheres, inspired by the projection of movies.<br />
There isn't any particular musical style: seventies psychedelic, funk, acid jazz, electro, minimal, reggae, ambient, underground; whatever seems suitable to play along with the film. So it's not all that avant-garde all of the time.</p>

| ?:Bugotak | "<div class="h">The ethnic project 'Bugotak' was found in 2004 in Novosibirsk, Russia, and currently located in the same region.<br />
<br />
Bugotak plays native siberian music in these variations:<br />
Mostly - northern turkic (Altai, Tuva), but also Tungus-manchurian, and music of the Deep Northern folks (Eveny, Negidaltsy, Orci etc)<br />
Mostly - traditional folklore, but also ethnic turkic rock and hard ambient.<br />
Mostly - its own songs, but also original folk songs and tributes to rock classics, played in traditional siberian instruments.<br />
<br />
The main idea of Bugotak's art is that only those traditions come alive, which develop itselves; stark traditions are subject to nobody. Therefore, the project declares itself to play in any style, keeping native Siberian spirit. Lovers of 'pure folk' should stay away, to avoid stagnation of native folks culture.<br />
<br />
Bugotak was found by George Andriyanov, a multi-instrument player and throat singing performer. Year 2006 cast: George Andriyanov, Tanya Romanova, Dmitry Shvetsov. <br />
Awards in 2006: - 'The best folklore band' within professional performers on The Baykal Necklace international festival (Ulan-Ude, Russia)</div>

<br />
Glen's music ranges from rearrangments of traditional songs to new, original compositions. His comic songs such as "Wasted All This Time" and "True Romance Magazine" made him the darling of Blacksburg open mics, while his serious tunes including "Pickup Street" and the unrecorded "Copenhagen" have become favored requests wherever he appears with his guitar.<br />

| ?:Comandante-em-Chefe | "It all started in early july 1995, using a vintage Fesma F-20 italian synth, a shortwave receiver and a set of decks to mess tapes back and forth. <br />
<br />
The first experiments were based on live improvisation, though somehow intentional, usually by playing minimal tunes on the keyboard, while both the receiver and the prebuilt tapeloops would be striving to find their own way into the mix. <br />
The outcome was enough fucked up to deserve a premiere in a local underground record store. <br />
Impressions and comments were enough encouraging to keep up with the research. <br />
<br />
The purchase of a Boss DR-5 rhythmbox, in february 1996, opened a gateway towards semi-programmed compositions, in which the live performance became less and less important, until it was fully supressed when my programming skills in that toy were enough mature to suffice the plans dreamt. <br />
Several tracks from this period got aired on a mainstream local radio station, after my great comrade C.M. was given a chance to broadcast a show devoted to "alternative sounds". <br />
<br />
The great shift was yet to come. Just a bit before 1997 passed away, i've got acquainted with the possibilities a PC could offer me as means to make music. <br />
For quite some time i had no interest on computers other than their audio capabilities. Throughout the summer of 98 i have been combining a plethora of different well known applications, with little to none satisfaction. Cubase and Cakewalk seemed too technical, cluttered and dull; Fastracker II and Rebirth were too raw. <br />
A few months later, around November 98, i saw a promising addition at maz-soound, a tracker centric emporium back then. It was called <strong>Buzz</strong> and, in spite of its alpha status, it already seemed what i have been running after. A modular all-in-one tracker/synthsizer/sequencer. Awesome. <br />
<br />
By march 1999 i have managed to reach enough profficiency in Buzz as to start producing exclusively within it, like a framework. <br />
I've finally found a noble excuse to skip classes at the fascist dungeon where the portuguese state was sponsoring my studies in Overseas Colonial Administration, under the offical disguise of "Anthropology". During the following two years my time was almost entirely devoted to explore Buzz Digital Composer, always extended with new exciting plug-ins released at a frantic rate. <br />
A couple of home crafted CD-R's were "relaesed" in my hometown, enjoying some media limelight, again thanks to C.M. and his enthusiasm about the stuff i was making available. <br />
In Januray 2001 i have decided to widthdraw from any musical activity, due to lack of inspiration (if i ever had any), boredom (a weired senastion of "mission accomplished") and a new agenda of priorities in computing. <br />
The nomenclature i have chosen as stagenames began as Aterro Sanitário, went on as Aufstehen! and ended up as Manchine. <br />
<br />
Comandante-em-chefe is the name under wich i want to encompass all those previous id's. <br />
It conveys the central topics embraced ever since. Strong socialist ideological commitment, cybernetic perfection (control/regulation), permanent change (revolution) and structure."^^xsd:string |

<p class="MsoNormal">A classical violinist since the age of five, Connor seemed set for a future in the orchestra until he learned that he could sing... and sing like no one else. His rare voice led him to be accepted into all 11 music conservatories he auditioned for after high school, but he chose to attend the prestigious Eastman School of Music of New York, with it's world-</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">renowned opera department. After fine tuning his performances touring the country in a nationally ranked a cappella group and playing some of the nation's major venues, Connor set his mind to turning a musical 360° and launching his rock career. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Connor's eponymously titled first CD featured the hit song "Inside Out," a self-penned tune that received radio airplay all over the U.S. and eventually, along with other accolades, charted to the #1 spot in France. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And audiences have responded. Connor has shared the stage with such national acts as Mariah Carey, Vertical Horizon, Edwin McCain, and Huey Lewis among others. He has been featured in numerous magazines and newspapers along with making several national television appearances, including a position as the executive music supervisor for a Discovery Channel series in 2004.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Connor's second album, “Soliloquy”, and its regional hit single "Ready To Fall" was a tight, eleven-song package which one Cleveland-area newspaper simply called "a masterpiece." Recorded in studios all over the country, "Soliloquy" brought Connor's musical vision to life combining creative and thought provoking songwriting with complex vocals. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The focus now is on the highly anticipated third album, "Prizefighter".<span style=""> </span>Over a year in the making, (most of it written, produced, and engineered by Connor himself), this album features a musical growth unparalleled in his young career.<span style=""> </span>From the smash piano ballad "Blue Room", to mid-tempo singles such as "Feeling Again" and "Falling To Pieces" </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(featured on The WB’s “Roswell”), and even the hard rocking seven minute opus of "Reconcile", this record truly represents this talent at it’s best.<span style=""> </span>As a writer, as a producer and most importantly as a performer, Connor is running at full stride. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">"Write a song that touches the very core of who someone is inside, and the rest will take care of itself", Connor says. "It's these common experiences that we as storytellers are called to tell."</p>"^^xsd:string |
| ?:Convey | "We have been featured on Red Hat Online Magazine!<br /><a href="http://www.redhatmagazine.com/2007/09/12/creative-commons-artist-spotlight-convey/">Creative Commons Artist Spotlight: Convey</a>
<br /><br />CONVEY has been together since late 2004, although some of us have been playing music together since our elementary school years. Now in high school, and having worked through both style and lineup changes, the band has come a long way. We feel that through years of music education and previous experience in other bands prior to the making of CONVEY, we have gained experience not often found in such a young band. The most recent addition to the band, Ben Cohen, will be attending Berklee College of Music in 2008 with a partial scholarship. Our alternative rock style with progressive influences grabs the attention of even the most casual listener. The band lineup is as follows:<br /><br />
Ben Cohen: vocals/keyboards<br />
Jahan Rajabi: guitar/vocals<br />
Dave Oxnard: guitar<br />
Will Clements: bass<br />
Chris Calabro: drums<br />
<br />
Despite the various lineup changes we have had throughout the years, we feel that our music speaks for itself. Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his essay, Self-Reliance, stated, “The soul created the arts wherever they have flourished. It was in his own mind that the artist sought the model. It was an application of his own thought to the thing to be done and the conditions to be observed.” Rather than contriving its music based on what is “popular” or expected, CONVEY is a band whose melodies, riffs, rhythms and lyrics derive from a free-flowing and metaphysical place. Songs and lyrics are often written during the latest hours of the night, when our creative processes may transcend our inhibitions. The final product is a dynamic, jarring, chaotic, controlled, melodic and meaningful glimpse into our deepest sentiments. CONVEY fans are looking for more than a repetitive catchy phrase. CONVEY listeners enjoy our music because it takes them to a place on the edge of reality that is very close and very far away from the world."^^xsd:string |

| ?:den makes music | "Je fais de la musique en amateur depuis que j'ai 15 ans, au début sur un orgue Farfisa puis ensuite avec des synthétiseurs (MS20, Juno). Tout cela enregistré avec deux magnétophones à K7 pour faire du "rerecording" maison. Ensuite je suis passé naturellement aux ordinateurs, au MIDI, puis aux synthétiseurs logiciels.
Néanmoins je ne suis pas un fana de technique. Ce qui m'intéresse avant tout est la mélodie. Ensuite la recherche d'un son peut être intéressante comme elle peut aussi casser l'inspiration du moment.
Je suis autodidacte dans tous les domaines donc parfois je tatonne...
Pour le moment j'ai fais cinq albums qui n'ont jamais été distribués sauf pour critique à mes amis, ils se trouvent en intégralité sur mon site Web, les plus récents sont "Chimère" et "Un monde étrange", le plus ancien étant "Zig-zaG".
Voila, je ne connais pas mon but dans la musique, j'ai des moments pendant lesquels j'éprouve le besoin de finaliser des morceaux comme si j'étais un professionnel. Ca doit me rassurer au cas où je penserai avoir perdu mon temps.
Néanmoins j'aime assez ce que je fais, bien que je n'arrive pas toujours au résultat idéal que j'ai parfois dans la tête.
In (my) english:
I make music since I was fifteen, I started with a Farfisa organ, then with some synthesizers like MS20 and Juno. I used two K7 recorders to make "rerecording" session. Then I started using computers, MIDI and virtual synthesizers.
But I'm not a technical geek (?). For me the important thing is the melody. Looking for a good sound can be interesting but can also makes you loose your inspiration.
I learn myself in all domains so sometimes it's difficult...
I made five albums , not distributed, only to a few friends for comment. Go to my Web site to listen to all. The most recent are "Chimère" and "Un monde étrange", the oldest is "Zig-zaG".
I don't know what is my goal in music. Sometimes I must finalize some songs, perhaps to make me think I have not lost my time.
Anyway, I like what I did, even if the result is not as good as the one I got in my mind. "^^xsd:string |

<p style="" class="MsoNormal">My First Album was called justification. It was an excuse for my sin. Now that I know my iniquities I realize that I was unjustified. That is why I renamed it. I wrote this album during the most disatifiing period of my life. I was into smoking drinking sex. I came to different points where I fealt so worthless that I wanted to comit suicide. Thankfully, I accepted Jesus into my life and he reformed me into a better person. (Each day He fixes somthing for me, im a work in progress.) I wanted people to see how I changed. I put the album here to show people the difference between a man with eyes filled with tears because of pain and sorrow and the difference between the man whose eyes are filled with tears, but, rather of Joy.<br />

My Second Album, Reborn, is my latest work to glorify god with my music. I mad this album after I became a christian. Now things are a lot better. My walk with God grows each day.

Mainly mixing decks on turntable during live performences they have joint live participations with bands such as Skre4 and Kaya as well whereas rapping is accompanied with live instrumental. They have common projects with other artits including Bobo from Snyper records, Promoe from Sweden etc.

High grade, farmed and grown in Crosby, harvested in Kenny, and served to the general population. Smuggled through customs, Earl Grey and the Legomen have been known to cause disorientation, euphoria and often strange flailings of the limbs. Blending British hip-hop, rock, indie, and electronic influences, they create their own unique and contraband flavour. Formed in 2005, as the result of a series of projects and the simple process of supply and demand, Earl Grey and The Legomen’s instantly recognisable sound has been described as ‘a quasi-pseudo orgasmatronic eclecticon’ by it's victims.

| ?:Ellissi nel Cerchio | "Ellissi nel Cerchio project starts in Milan in 2003, shaped by Luca Brazzoli, Pietro Recchi and Stefano Schiavocampo.<br />
In early-times, it was pure jam session-based fun, a divertissement of three fellows who shared in the past common musical experiences (e.g. Luca and Pietro with Fansforevans - punkrock, and Luca and Stefano with Overshade - indie rock).<br />
<br />
In the first sessions, post-rock influences and allusions to Radiohead's claustrophobic soundscapes can already be found, as well as to the typical indipedent italian rock scene of the 90's.<br />
<br />
In 2003, and for the first half of 2004, the project limits himself merely to rehearsals, in order to develope the interplay between the bandmates and to focus the ideas and the musical directions on a well-designed target.<br />
But these focuses remained foggy until the entrance of Marco Deregibus (lead vocals): even if the odd-meter-based structures of the songs determined initially an thread for Marco's songwriting, he helped Ellissi nel Cerchio in the process of defining their own style, which is, thanks to the inventiveness of the three founders, very particular and hard to define. The basis of this style can be found in the italian rock songs, not necessarily presented in the classic verse/refrain scheme, but more as a straight-ahead journey, a jouney which is described step-by-step by the lyrics of Marco.<br />
These lyrics, even if they speak about existence in a universal way, seem to be always able to penetrate the audience's intimacy.<br />
<br />
In the 2005, the project came totally to life with the pubblication of the EllissiNelCerchio/00 EP.<br />

| ?:En Busca Del Pasto | "<a href="http://www.enbuscadelpasto.com">En Busca Del Pasto</a> came into being as a project for musical improvisation, although at present their production incorporates a relevant visual hemisphere. It is, therefore, a musical and visual project.<br /><br />En Busca Del Pasto offers live performance, and it is these live shows that matter (records and recordings are to be considered mere samples). Musicians arrange images beforehand to be projected on stage. These images stand for particular concepts that give the visual hemisphere its meaning. But images are only the context in which music comes to life every time. We say that it lives: it flows spontaneously, responding to each stone it comes across, to each sensation it perceives. Each organ (each musician) responds with a beat, a note, a word, or with his silence… improvising, it must be noted.<br /><br />So we have two sides, music and image. Both realities appear before the audience with equal intensity, exchanging and combining their meanings - that is what makes the piece: its unity. And in this unity we must look for the piece's real meaning.<br /><br />Depicting existence requires the use of contrasts: subject and background, the self and the world. The living in its context. This is what En Busca Del Pasto tries to represent. On stage, a cold surface is displayed: video, the impassive image, created beforehand, removed from all interaction, unaltered flux (like the world); and on it, the musicians, alive, with no music stand, with no instruction book, drops of moisture on the stage, reacting to the image, subjugated but free… Contradictory, that's the point.<br /><br />The quest doesn't reach a conclusion, our experiences aren't exhausted in a final interpretation of what has been lived. This is why the search never ends. The pasture is never found. It is the searching that counts.<br /><br /><br />Text extracted from <a href="http://www.enbuscadelpasto.com/buscando En Busca Del Pasto.pdf">"Buscando En Busca Del Pasto" (PDF)</a>"^^xsd:string |

| ?:Epoxia | "Epoxia is a joint project of Vate and Luar. It started at the beginning of the nineties. Luar conceived some songwriting ideas and Vate contributed in the technical and musical side. The first orientation of their music was rock and from 1997 to 1998 they recorded the primitive versions <em>Soberbia Epiritual </em>and <em>El Hombe Nuevo</em>, with Luar making the lyrics and playing the bass and making the basic layout of the songs and Vate programming and adding the general structure. The project was left alone and later, in 2001, Vate took pieces and samples of those recordings and made the versions that appear in this album, wich eventually became the “official and instrumental” versions of the two original songs. Later, in 2006, at the time of reediting and making sligth alterations to these tracks, Vate produced and added Soberbia Espiritual (Remix) and Hombre Soberbia, wich is made from samples of both tracks and works as a summary of the project.<br />
<br />
<strong>Epoxia defined by Luar (2006):</strong><br />
<br />
“Surely by the affective lacks of my childhood, as an adult I always looked for to scandalize others. I tried to make always an almost extreme creative effort. As time passed by, I developed the theory of an “epoxic world” devoid of logic rules logics and plenty of new ideas, with high creative expressions and all the humor that was possible for me to express.<br />
<br />
One day, I tried to express that into music; nevertheless, the result was very different from what I expected.<br />
<br />
Along with Vate. I reached the conclusion that electronic music is not done by robots; music must have an intention, express a message and always tell a history. Otherwise, music will only be a series of dead sounds.<br />
<br />
Therefore, the music of Epoxia reflects some of my thoughts and deeper desires: to be a new man, to avoid at all costs music wich ends as a collection of moans by lost love and to criticize pride in all its forms. “"^^xsd:string |
| ?:Equals Conquest | "Former bassist/vocalist, Imix Shish, of the Afterglows (former Reading, PA Punk/Hardcore) spins a complete 180 and strips down to his bare soul. What began as rough singer/songwriter ideas was transformed into a new level of sonic soundscapes/ beats/ keys/ awesomeness and textures by collaborating with former bandmate, drummer, and all around ruling guy, Mike Mollura. The duo have created a layered, dense, beautiful ride of gritty sounds and emotions on the bands debut, "Manifest Destiny". The Equals Conquest project grew out of the friendship of Imix and Mike. They had demoed various songs throughout the years, but had only dedicated themselves to the task of recording a full record in early 2005. The duo recorded "Manifest Destiny" exactly like they had always wanted to: on their own terms, on their own time, as equals, and with only themselves to please. After many years of musical collaberation, they knew that they finally had a record they could present to the world. The duo's philosophy has carried over to their live set. Live, Equals Conquest is a living being, capable of taking many shapes. The group, with an album's worth of new, unreleased material, is equipped to play almost any audience. Being multi-instrumentalists has also helped them and they have been able to swtich instruments mid-set if need be. Equals Conquest's style continues to evolve, offering something for everyone with a each tasty piece of rock and roll. Watch for these two as they conquer hearts and minds alike."^^xsd:string |

From simple haunting and moving piano pieces to complex and sometimes distrubing electronic soundscapes, he enjoys challenging our ears.<br />
<br />
From an early age he became interested in experimenting with normal day to day instruments and electronics available around the house. He noticed that by putting the batteries of his mono audio cassette player in a slightly different configeration would cause the machine to record sound at half speed. Thus when inserting the batteries correctly, the recording played back at double speed.<br />
<br />
The family pianola, already a strange and fantastic piece of machinery, became even more interesting as various different substrates were 'attached' to the hammers, or objects were carefully placed in between the strings. Felixdroid was yet to discover John Cage. Later, after joining art school, his available palette of instruments was increased as the establishment had a sound studio, crammed with an assortment of ethnic drums and percussion instruments, guitars, early monophonic synths and an eight track recording facility. His creative yearnings truly began to blossom.<br />
<br />
Felixdroid is excited by the vast sonic landscape that exists, and welcomes anyone who wishes to follow him on his travels. <br />

After the release of the single Teenage Passion things went smoothly for Fusz, including many gigs throughout the Netherlands and a collaboration with the label “BridgeIII Records”. In the meantime Fusz released its debut album Hypocrisy, which is introduced by the second single Scared Out! The strength of this single is proven by the fact that Scared Out features on the CD Rock Alternative/Dutch rock-alternative 2006. This edition is an initiative of the Stichting Conamus (the Conamus Foundation) to promote Dutch bands and is distributed both nationally as internationally.

| ?:GIANT SQUID MARCH ON WASHINGTON | "The origin of GIANT SQUID MARCH ON WASHINGTON can be traced all the way back to 1996 as best I can remember. I started hanging out with this guy, Doug - who quickly became one of my best friends - during the summer before 10th grade as we were the only people in the town that we lived in who happened to know who Soul Coughing were.<br />
<br />
Doug: So, do you wanna start a band?<br />
Aaron: Yeah, sure.<br />
<br />
As it happened, our band didn't really work out back then, as I knew even less about music back then than I do now. Thus, we didn't actually get down to brass tacks until '99 when I went to visit him in Manitoba. It was then that we wrote and recorded our first few songs. Other than a cover of Filter's "Hey Man, Nice Shot", I can't really remember what most of them were about, but I do recall most of them were pretty fucked up. One song was called "Frosty The Snowman", and it was basically about what a huge cunt he was. The only other song I remember was called "The Brandonator", and it was about this fat kid with bad acne and a shitty attitude that we met in an internet chatroom. Basically, we just recycled the main riff from "I Wanna Be Your Dog", which, in itself would not make it noteworthy. The song is memorable for me if only for the first two lines in it - "The Brandonator/He's a rock and roll BAS-TARRRRRRD".<br />
<br />
With our first hit song in the can, we began to plot the most direct route to total fucking world domination, but before we could really get underway, our new musical project needed a name. But what? Eventually, we wound up referring to it by two different names. I can't quite recall what Doug named the band, but I called it Reindeerhead. I would later use this name in 2003 when I began to make myself a presence on the internet, at which time, I produced a "song" which was really more of an ambient noise piece which can still be found on the internet under the title "The Helmet Children". After its release, I was beginning to feel stifled creatively. There was only so much I cared about producing using artificial methods, thus, I began to actively seek people who were creating music via more organic methods. Winter 2003, I met a young man named Anthony who I immediately hit it off with, on a musical and human level. Basically what won me over was this song he wrote called "Her Korner". I was blown away by how well written it was, and to this day, it's still my favourite song that he's written.<br />
<br />
Thanks to a friend of mine, Max, we wound up playing one show and we fucking sucked. We were out of key, off time, and generally all-around unpracticed and incompetent, as far as being a band went. Half of our songs didn't even have vocals. Not only that, halfway through our horribly messy set, our drummer thought it would be totally awesome to get up in front of the microphone and start ranting. I don't remember specifically what he said, but I know that he mentioned Jesus more than once.<br />
<br />
After our show, (I almost forgot to mention - it was in a mall), the band just kind of disintegrated. Anthony eventually moved back to NB, where he is currently, and I suppose I plodded away at trying to find another band. I was playing with this technical death metal band, but unfortunately, at the time, I was hardly as technically adept as I am now, so they found another bassist. I wasn't too upset about it though. They were really nice guys, and I can say that I truly learned from the short time I played music with them.<br />
<br />
Though, it would be the last real band I ever played with.<br />
<br />
Thus began the saga of GIANT SQUID MARCH ON WASHINGTON. Intended to be more a collective of musicians indulging in their grossest than what is typically thought of as a musical group, due to the oft fluid and unreliable nature of the concept of "BAND". No more do I care to appeal to the static attitudes of the masses with such limitations as "punk" or "metal" or "jazz" or "pop". Everything is good. Everything is shit. The alpha and the omega and all that horse cock.<br />

Ma in quel periodo di assalto modaiolo alle quattro discipline dell'hip hop, perlomeno a Savona, la scena non era esattamente entusiasmante... Ci sarebbero voluti sette anni e l'insistenza del Biolo e del Barba (grazie) perché Biugi si cimentasse col beatmaking e l'emceeing. Quattro anni dopo gli esordi sulla traccia in polverosi e fumosi garage del savonese, ecco prendere forma Inna Sanna, l'album d'esordio del Gruppo Crudo. Un crasto trust di cervelli discutibili sparpagliati fra Savona, Genova, Torino, Montreal e Brisbane. Materia grigia che si trasforma in energia (la solita formula e uguale emmecidue) ed infine spurga in queste tracce, autoprodotte (utilizzando un laptop, un mic, e l'arte di arrangiarsi) da Biugi, braccio musicale del Gruppo Crudo, nel suo esilio volontario a Brisbane. Niente SIAE, niente etichette (in tutti i sensi). Il vento sta girando di brutta maniera, i modi son nuovissimi. Roba da cantine e da garage, più underground di così non si può. Al momento Biugi sta mettendo su nuove basi e buttando giù nuove rime per un nuovo, ambizioso e gustavissimo progetto. Stay tuned.<br />

But, allergic to anything fashionable (as every good restless teenager must pretend to be), it would be seven more years before the first attempts at composing, dating back to 2003 in the dusty garages of Savona, Italy. Four years after those late and hazy nights of freestyle, Biugi decided he was competent enough to dare. And so Inna Sanna came to this world. Entirely produced by Biugi during his willful exile in Brisbane, Australia, using only a 800€ laptop, a mic and a good deal of imagination. Biugi's currently keeping busy building up new tracks and scribbling down new rhymes, for a new, ambitious project due out in 2008. Stay tuned.</div>

| ?:Havok | "<p align="justify"><span class="style68"> Havok began in the year of 2003, when guitarists Mahan Ahmadi and Miguel Cabrera founded the technical thrash/death metal outfit Ecliptica, in the southern swedish city of Lund. With a loosely knit formation, they recorded a couple of songs. During the winter of 2004, they were on the hunt for a new drummer, and conveniently found Johan Cronqvist, who had recently immigrated from the town of Halmstad. With him came the change of bandname, turning the music towards a more brutal, chaotic death metal sound, yet still with remnants from the thrash days. Trying out various musicians to fill the void behind microphone and bass, the summer of 2005 brought the vocalist Johan Bergström. Some months later, as winter approached, Andreas Johansson joined the band, filling the last gap in the line-up with his bass. </span></p>
<p align="justify"><span class="style68"> </span></p>
<p align="justify"></p>
<p align="justify"><span class="style68"> As time progressed, the songwriting continued to evolve, leaving older songs behind, sharpening their composing skills, and a few live performances in Lund took place. In July 2006, this constellation entered a studio for the first time (Flatpig, in Malmö), recording their four tracked debut demo, ”Realms of Reverie”. Despite a generally positive respone to the demo, Havok were not overly satisfied with how the sound turned out, moving on composing the follow-up single, entitled ”World Shroud”. It was recorded at the end of 2006 at the Blacklodge Studio in Örkelljunga, and is bound to be released in the beginning of February. </span></p>"^^xsd:string |

Illusion of Art is textural progressive music done with obscure processes with a preoccupation with Hellenized Judeo-Christian mythos as well as other esoteric topics no one is interested in. Listening, one could find samples from orchestras, Nintendos, Commodore 64's, vintage synths, obsessiveness about surrealist films from the 1920's, Valentinus, German opera, Zoroastrianism, Jungian psychology, and the theories of David Bohm, as well a compulsion to use trackers and other software and electronic equipment not very popular with the creation of music.<br />
<br />
Graham Hill is the sole member of Illusion of Art and writes and performs all the music. The project started in the summer of 2000 as an outlet for pent-up musical frustration to be vented. The process is to conceive the song, then to mock, denigrate, and finally destroy it. What is left to be heard are the miserable final days of the song up to its execution.<br />

To classify the musical direction of the collective known as Inborn in conventional terms would be useless, considering that their unique kabbalah-rock combines different musical styles from electronic music to psychedelic rock´n´roll to create experimental soundscapes unlike anything you may have heard before. <br />
As far as the lyrics are concerned, they are based on the general concept of artistic evolution. The surrealistic approach adds a conceptual dimension to the music. In the same way as kabbalah is known as an ancient jewish system of symbolism and thoughts having the function of a key to explain the world, their music enables you to find access to the individual personalities representing Inborn. <br />
After their foundation in early 2002, they played more and more gigs in Luxembourg and eventually won the emergenza contest which exhorted them to perform even more including festivals featuring Blackmail, Him, the Cardigans and the Blues Brothers. The band members know each other for a long time which explains their positive band chemistry, that is strongly felt in their dynamic live performances. After a creative break, Inborn released their first record `The Headtrance Session´ in January 2005, which turned into a success and got positive feedback from the luxemburgish press.<br />"^^xsd:string |

From the beginning of the 90s I have been composing music (initially under the pseudonym OBCY – (Stranger), currently under my own name) using an Amiga PC. To be honest, before that time I had written some heavy-metal guitar pieces in a school band and composed drum lines on my Commdore 64 mostly for practice’ sake. But only thanks to Amiga and Atari ST it became possible in those times to write, low cost, miscellaneously sounding music. It is difficult for me to classify what I do, even more so as the reviews I have read differed substantially in their opinions. Some would say that ‘my music cannot be strictly classified’, others would label it as ‘modern electronics’ but there were also ones who admitted that ‘it is, without a doubt, best quality staff, still it’s a bit old-fashioned’. I suppose it is best to describe it using a broad term: ‘Electronic’.
From 1994, I had been active on the Amiga-scene for a short time and won a few Polish music and demo competitions (e.g.: Primavera Party 1994, Digital Art 1.5 in 1996). Three years later I began to freelance for a film studio where I composed pieces for documents on public TV. Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, this did not last long. For the next few years I had been composing only for myself and my friends, not sharing it with any other audience nor taking part in competitions, etc.
Near the end of 2005 I decided to change that and after receiving a warm welcome in western press (Future Music, issue 168/winter 2005, Computer Music, issue 93/winter 2005) the time has come to put my pieces on this site.
I hope that my music will bring you at least a little bit of pleasure not only as a result of listening to it but also that it will stimulate your imagination taking you, at least for a while, into some new, ‘Strange’ worlds.
As far as I’m concerned, I am open to any offers which will help me do what I can do best, namely compose music for films or video games ( I still enjoy playing) instead of images created only in my imagination.
Enjoy listening !

| ?:Jaugernaut | "<p>I will admit that I once believed that if you write good music, it will pay off. I no longer believe this. The music that is popular today is only popular because it is being marketed. When the marketing stops, so do the sales. Unlike earlier times when The Dark side of the moon was on the Billboard top 200 for something like 10 years, nothing, I repeat nothing released from the last 10 years will be even remotely popular in another 5 years. There are no classic albums anymore - not in the way it was through the 80's. There is just too much good music being released for free now, and even more crazy bad stuff. I put out Contra Mantra with the idea that I had recorded an exceptional album. Well, I still think so, but no one else does. If you listen and like it, please drop me a word of encouragement, because that is all I'm getting out of this - no false hopes that this will do anything. If someone is suprised by the music - It makes my day, kinda like a nice smile from a pretty face.</p>
<p>I recorded Contra Mantra as an old retired musician who still enjoys writing music, I write the kind of music I would want to listen to. If you like listening to it great, Ive just saved you 15 bucks. It is my gift to a world that is slowly killing off the music that I love. - Its not over until this fat man stops singing....</p>

| ?:KARLO Kostic Lazar | "<p><span class="postbody"><font face="times new roman">Moje puno ime je <strong>Lazar Brcic Kostic </strong>rodjen Septembra 01, 1950 g u Subotici, Vojvodina - Srbija, (bivsa Yugoslavija). Prvi deo prezimena Brcic od kada sam dosao u Canadu, jednostavno izostavljam jer na Engleskom komplikuje stvar. U skolskim danima Imao sam nekoliko nadimaka, zvali su me Brle (to je ono od Brcic), pa onda mrtvac, jer sam u srednjoj tehnickoj skoli dugo nosio crne panatlone i crnu rol majicu, a i kao golman FK Bratstva iz Subtice, uvek sam delovao "jezivo hladno", na kraju su me prijatelji<strong> "krstili" u Karla</strong>, a nikada nisam uspeo da razjasnim zasto. Tako da sam danas stigao do Lazar Kostic - Karlo. <br />
<br />
Pocetkom sezdesetih sam privatno 2 godine ucio klasicnu gitaru kod prof. Kovaca (otac Kornelija Bate Kovaca) u Subotici, <strong>a u svojoj 14 (1964) godini sam napisao svoju prvu pesmu "Divni dani su bili to". </strong>1967 godine sa vec nekih petnajstak svoji kompozicija (mix roken rol i protest), uveliko sviram svoje pesme na privatnim zabavama i plesovima. <br />
<br />
1967 godin kao clan Omladinske radne brigade Radio Televizija Srbija - Najbolji drugovi, ucestvujem na radnoj akciji na Novome Beogradu, i tamo sa svojom pesmom <strong>"Ja sam sin siromaha"</strong> u omladinskom naselju vise od mesec dana drzim prvo mesto na top listi slusanih pesama. Iste godine nastupam na <strong>Radio Beogradu program II</strong>, u emisiji koja se zvala subotom ili nedeljom u podne. </font></span></p>
<p><span class="postbody"><font face="times new roman">Krajem 1970 g. u predtakmicenjima, za kvalifikacije za Suboticki Omladinski Festival Muzike, pod nazivom "pokazi sta znas", <strong>sa pesmom "Pustinjak stari" osvajam prvo</strong> <strong>mesto</strong> i ulazim u uzi festivalski zibor. Ziri koji je odlucivao o konacnim ucesnicima Subotickog Omladinskiog Festivala Muzike nije prihvatio moju pesmu tako da iz finalnog takmicenja ispadam, ili zbog "strogog zirija", ili zbog toga sto sam ja odabrao losiju pesmu za ovo takmicenje. U pocetku sam ja strogo bio uveren da je tu ziri prema meni bio "ne pravican", ali kasnije ja sam uvideo da je to u stvari bila moja losa odluka, kad sam izvanrednu pesmu, <strong>koja je imala sve osnove da postane hit "Ja sam sin siromaha", </strong>jednostavno zamenio sa protesnom pesmom "Pustinjak stari" a vreme protesnih pesama je bilo na "izdisaju". Tako sam ja zavrsio pocetak moje muzicke karijere u sirem smislu reci.<br />
<br />
Nakon toga sport i druge okolnosti su doprineli da mi muzika definitivno postane vecna zivotna senka, a ne zanimanje, ali se te senke ni do danasnjeg dana nisam oslobodio. <br />
<br />
U periodu 1970 - 1980, sviram sa Milanom, Bucom i Janosom u kafani <strong>Mali Palic na Palicu </strong>a od 1980 pa do danas muziciram za svoju dusu i prijatelje. <br />
<br />
<strong>Od 1964 pa do danas sam napisao vise od 100 pesama </strong>ali nikada nisam pretendovao da to i negde i objavim, (onako za drustvo je to bilo). Nazalost mnoge pesme sam jednostavno zagubio, pa i zaboravio, tako da sam sad u prilici da kao radne materujale (sa mrsavim snimcima, ne doteranim arnzmanima, "stucavim" solom etc) nekih 40 pesama u Mp3 formatu stavim na internet, mozda ce neko iz tih radova i tekstova izvuci neku novu ideju. </font></span></p>
<p><span class="postbody"><font face="times new roman">Negde u period 1985/86, ne mogu se tacno prisetiti godine, moj izvanredan prijatelj i drugar <strong>Milan Andjelic (basista)</strong> je predlozio da kontaktiramo naseg sugradjanina <strong>Gabor Lendjela </strong>(Yugo. muzicku legendu, kompozitora, aranzera,), te da u njegovom privatnom studiju napravimo neku selkciju kao i neke radne studijske snimke. Kolko se scema on je i kontaktirao Gabora, ali do realizacije ove ideje nije doslo pre svega zbog moje prezauzetosti po drugim pitanjima.<br />
<br />
Od 1993 godine zivim i radim u Vancouveru Canada gde sam sa svojom suprugom<strong> Juliannom Galfi Kalocai</strong>, upoznao <strong>Draganu Konstantinovic </strong>i njenu porodicu, izvanrednog poetu i pisca predivnih tekstova. </font></span></p>
<p><span class="postbody"><font face="times new roman">U saradnji sa DK posebno u toku 2007 god, uradjeno je vise desetina pesama ukljucujuci i pesme za decu. Plod ove saradnje su tri albuma i to <strong>Moja Zemlja, Paor s Divljeg Zapada</strong> i album sa decijim pesmama <strong>Zmaj od Nocaja</strong>, dok su pesme iz sezdestih i sedamdestih objavljene u albumu pod nazivom <strong>Ja sam sin siromaha</strong></font></span></p>

At these moments, when the five senses are not enough to express the life, anguish and anxiety take possession of the afflicted hearts, the humanity needs help. We are not alone. Lark is a being, an energy, on to the arts, in special to music, because music is the language of Muses, the language of Gods, that can be noticed even at the first steps of evolution, even by the irrationals animals. Its origin, not known, seems that it followed the exodus of Capella. Lark is adimensional and therefore its presence makes itself to be feeling through composers, musicians and interpreters spread out the universe. Of all places... to thousands, already said the king. Its communication is subtil, what it makes it difficult many times to identify the origin of the received material. At this moment some artists are receiving the mission to manisfest the musical art of Lark, cosmic and liberating. The only intention of Lark Wiskey is to divulge and promove the Love. The true essence of the Ksmos, and to prepare the humanity for the new conscience, spiritual. Lark Wiskey does not need aid. We do need it! Peace be with you. Thus either!"^^xsd:string |

Legofriendly has been crafted and post-processed in Tokyo central since 2002. Recommended if you like Fourtet, Mouse on Mars, Pram or Autechre. <br />
<br />
Quirky but never beyond reach: like a pile of Lego bricks, experiment a little and make of it what you will. Dense arrangements encourage you to take away something different on each listen as you settle into the comfortable melodies or let yourself be taken by the insistent rhythms.<br />
<br />
Somewhere between IDM, techno and electronica, Legofriendly never quite fits into any of the three. In common it has IDM's spirit of experimentation, the determined accessibility of techno and the characteristic warmth of electronica.<br />

Mark hopes to expand the group in the near future so that he can play live again.<br />
<br />
Magnetic has released four 'official' albums ('The Desolation Coast', 'The Magnetic North', 'Magnetic II', and 'Ghosts'). However, Mark plans to release his earlier work (five albums - 'Self Title', 'Desolation Sound', 'To Be Here, Now', 'Alien Skies', and 'Explorations From The Magnetic Coast') under the Magnetic name. These albums are very primitive and almost entirely loop and sample based. Most of the material on these albums has never been released, however, various tracks can be found on 'Acidplanet'. As well, remakes of 'On This Astral Plain', and 'Piano #1' can be found on 'The Magnetic North' album. <br />
<br />
Mark has also started working on a new Magnetic album. It will mark a dramatic departure for the groups sound...the will be vocals on some or all the tracks and a lot more real guitars, basses, and drums!!! As of this writing, the cd will be called 'The Future'.<br />

A principios del 2006 comienza a grabar en estudio algunos de sus temas. Ha sido un proceso lento, pero lleno de ilusión el que ha dado como resultado este proyecto que incluye 10 temas, de los cuales 4 han sido producidos por Pablo León y el resto han sido producidos por Alexander Pantchenko (Sasha), teclista, director musical de la banda que acompaña a la artista en directo y compositor de algunos temas. <br />

Siguiendo una línea general de pop-rock, las canciones tienen un sonido actual. Guitarras eléctricas y teclados son parte fundamental que apoyan unas líneas de voz muy melódicas.

The main goal of this album was to capture the feelings of love (genuine feelings). Happiness, lust, melancholy, angst, etc. Success or not, I am satisfied with the results of this project. <br /><br />
"iNTERDiT" was literally autobiographic, and infact was based on a real relationship. The trax were made during the relationship and the innevitable ending. No less, the album has a special place in my heart.<br /><br />
All tracks written and produced by MERCURIUS FM.<br /><br />

Da funk back to da punk.<br /><br />
At the moment I am working on my second album, one which I am hoping to release for sale. I am in the process of writing the songs and music. I also need to buy some equipment, such as a quality mic (one of the main reasons the vocals were weak on my previous album). So, the next album might be done by Christmas of this year. It depends on how much time I get between work and studies. <br /><br />
Feel free to donate. : )

Background wise Musetta are Italian duo Matteo Curcio and Marinella Mastrosimone who have intermittently been working together on various projects / bands since the late 90's.
Their music bequeath a broad spectrum of textures, moods and styles to their musical canon, principally the noire-ish spectrality of the early 90's Bristol scene - Portishead, Massive Attack et al being blended by the obscurest cabaret dark pop of Goldfrapp and seductively dry spun with shades of smoky jazz and down tempo for alarming effect.

I visited my nephew Thoms in berlin. The day i arrived he said we have 2 go 2 a concert.<br />
It was the first time since a long period of nontraveling for me so i was really tierd& sweet tempered and joined him.<br />
Where we went ?<br />
I really don't know somewhere fucking far in the suburbs a place called kantheatro , but be carfull the name is just a name it looked like a skool.<br />
Once we were there the Kantheatro shaped up as a <a href="http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&p=eL4jU.&search=commemoration">commemoration</a><br />
for rudolf Kranz.<br />

thought about him at this night of the 8.11.2007- by the way 13 years after his dead and nearly 1000 kilometers far away from his hometown friedberg in taunus.<br />
Rudi that`s how friends called him was a simple person but not only simple he was a little bit more the owner of a kiosk while drawing amazing little faces ,the faces of his daily customers ,<br />
drawing them with the eyes of a boy who never met a woman which taught him how to love or spoiled him through a womenslove <br />
The evening was a succes the musicians ambitious the dolefullness true.<br />
After the concert/commemoration i had the monomania to make a cd with the musik of this evening <br />
I asked all the musicians and invited them to my small studio to spend a few days of recording maybee with the same songs they performed in kanteatro just to make shure Rudolf kranz <br />
was/is an establishment and not just a man who died unter his shower while changing the radiostation .<br />

In 2004 I created first Musuca's song called "Oceans of my heart" and it was the begining of my silent crying. I still feel a need to create my own world in my music, not to try to compose music as we usually know it. But to do it my way... There is not much I really want to do by composing but...

| ?:nenad romic za novyi byte | "<p><strong>nenad romić </strong>likes to explore doing things which he can't do "properly". he also likes to play with words, signs, meanings and concepts.</p>
<p><br />
the name <strong>novyi byte</strong> is inspired by <strong>novyi byt</strong> (<em>new way of life</em>) from bolshevik revolution. bolshevik activists self-consciously viewed themselves as the vanguard of a militantly modern new way of life (<em>novyi byt</em>) at mortal odds with an old way of life (<em>staryi byt</em>).</p>
<p><br />
one of the story goes like this (from <a href="http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/ahr/109.5/hernandez.html">http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/ahr/109.5/hernandez.html</a>):</p>
<p><br />
"A small group of Bolshevik activists from the Bol'she-Polianskii district (<em>raion</em>) Communist Party Committee arrived in the village of Novoe Pokrovskoe in the Russian Central Black Earth Region on January 17, 1930. They had come for the church bells.</p>
<p><br />
Someone from among the village faithful spotted their approach and managed to climb the bell tower before it was too late. The bells loudly sounded the alarm during the ensuing scuffle between parishioners and activists. More and more villagers rushed to the scene in response to the tocsin, shouting their indignation not only at the plan to remove the bells, but also at the recently imposed collective farm (<em>kolkhoz</em>).</p>
<p><br />
Once the crowd reached menacing proportions and threatened the activists with physical, even mortal, harm, they wisely fled. Having won the battle, villagers then organized themselves to guard the church should the defeated activists return for another attempt at the bells.</p>
<p><br />
Indeed, a second attempt was made only a few days later, except this time officials from higher up the Bolshevik hierarchy arrived, hoping that a more authoritative delegation would force the village's acquiescence. Nevertheless, this delegation faced yet another angry crowd, hastily assembled at the sound of the tocsin. The crowd's list of complaints against Bolshevik policies now expanded beyond the bells' confiscation and the establishment of the collective farm to include the excessive "insurance" payments required by the regime for the church as well as the arrest of the local parish priest"</p>

more to explain how <strong>byt</strong> became <strong>byte</strong> (from <a href="http://criticalinquiry.uchicago.edu/issues/v28/v28n1.kiaer.html">http://criticalinquiry.uchicago.edu/issues/v28/v28n1.kiaer.html</a>) :</p>
"Constructivist theorists and artists, then, although famed for their commitment to technological production, also invented the concept of the everyday material object of socialist consumption as a socialist thing. This thing would be an active "co-worker" or "comrade" of the human subject rather than a mere commodity to be possessed. The very mundanity of cheap printed cotton fabric--its absolute usefulness in the "new everyday life" (novyi byt) being promoted by the Bolsheviks after the revolution--made it an exemplary Constructivist thing. But it is exemplary only if Constructivism is acknowledged as a practice that sees that the subject is formed as much through the process of using objects in everyday life as by making them in the sphere of production.""^^xsd:string |

| ?:No, Really | "<div class="entrytext">Hannah Clemens is on a mission. Her goal: to make anyone within earshot drop what they're doing and listen. Her tools: one guitar, one voice, and a selection of songs so varied in style and content that every performance truly does offer something for everyone. <br />
<br />
But then, when your stage name itself is an attempt to win over the skeptical, you're clearly out to prove something. Eschewing the all-too-popular notion that image is everything, Clemens prefers to let the songs she performs as No, Really speak for her. In the case of her first full-length album, <em>Rust</em>, that meant stripped-down recordings that showcase the purity of her voice and the poignancy of her lyrics. <br />
<br />
The unlikely tunes in her repertoire include an ode to CCTV cameras, an intergalactic breakup song, and a tune about the fortifying powers of peppermint tea. The ten songs on <em>Rust</em> were tracked in a single day at SCM Recordings in San Diego, California and released online under a Creative Commons license in addition to the usual retail outlets. <br />
<br />
With a growing fanbase, plenty of shows on the horizon, and a second album in the works, Clemens is looking forward to increasing her influence while retaining the DIY ethic that has served her so well in the past. It's the only way to keep fulfilling her mission for many years to come.<br />

| ?:o0o | "o0o is Djev Swaen born in Trajectum ad Mosam in 1973 on the 4th of October. His daddy was a private eye and his mother worked for a big company. After the divorce of his parents o0o gets inspired by the music he hears and sticks his nose in many different styles . He listens to music his parents would listen to. Janis Joplin, Leonard Cohen, Neil Diamond for example. But also a lot of Dutch comedy performers like Toon Hermans, Wim Sonneveld, Jasperine de Jong and lots more..... And next to that get's overloaded with the modern music like Madonna, Wham, Prince etc... you know all the radio music from the early 80's (Dutch style!)<br />
Classical music entered his life at the age of 7 as his stepdad was an opera singer and pianist. o0o learned to play a few notes on the piano and to sing along. And so he got known with Beethoven, Schubert, Vivaldi, Chopin (his favourite) and many more again.... During puberty classic is out and new styles enter like new wave, punk, reggae, ska, hardrock, metal, glitterrock grunge and so on... He found Nina Hagen, The Cure, Iron Maiden, Velvet underground, The Smiths, Queen, the Police and soooo much more.....<br />
All these different styles kept entering o0o's life as later on he gets to hear a lot of folk music due to a friend from Italy who gave him tapes of local bands doing old regional folksongs. Belgium Rock like Deus or Zita Swoon are so different that it deserves a new genre... not to forget Zap Mamma...great talents. Oriental, jewis, arabic and more styles followed and the influence is gold!<br />
<br />
All these styles and many more have made o0o who he is now!<br />
<br />
After several failed attempts to play in bands he decides to work out music on his PC. o0o buys a music software called MM2005 and starts experimenting with a microphone inserted in his camera he recorded his first tunes. When he buys the MM2007 he also buys a cheap headset including a mic. Costs; € 05, 00!!!<br />
Later on he got a microphone as a present from a good friend but the darn mic is too good for his laptop and so he saves that one for live performances. <br />
He just recently bought his MM2008. Now all of his songs will be uploaded on Jamendo but one album at a time. <br />
<br />
Please check out his site and let him now you where there...He likes that!!!!<br />

| ?:Of The I | "Of the I’ is an emerging band from London, trying to spread their musical message by providing demos of their music, freely, over the internet. The band’s first album is provisionally titled ‘12 Sequences of a Storm’. Their aim is to create a new kind of sound that invokes elements derived from spirituality, philosophy, psychology, each member’s personal experiences, as well as the music that has inspired them. Of the I’s sound can be described as progressive, melodic, experimental rock. Of the I are currently completing their first album, as well as rehearsing for upcoming shows in London. <br />
<br />
The first completed demos for the album, recorded in an apartment in London, were compiled into an EP at the request of members of demonoid.com, and uploaded as a torrent. Due to an overwhelming positive response, and a desire to show that sharing art is good for both artists and the audience, the band is releasing this EP all over the internet, calling it the Demonoid EP to show their love for the site that inspired and assisted them in sharing their own music via p2p networks. If you and/or your website would like to host the EP and make it available to your friends/users please contact the band via myspace. <br />

These tracks will be re-recorded later, once the Of The I enters the studio, as part of their full-length album. Until then, enjoy the music!"^^xsd:string |

Orchid was founded in January 2006, in Poznan - a city in a mid way between Warsaw and Berlin. After we have made our debut as a part of a nationwide charity action known as Wielka Orkiestra Swiatecznej Pomocy we played several gigs in Poland.<br />
Our music goes easy with the rockandroll. It is mostly simple, melodic, sometimes schmaltzy. It meets the electronics, but not very modern, rather vintage. <br />
We do rockandrol, special FX included. <br /><br />

The papa dada recipe is particular, in that it features only piano, bass and drums. Hence a fresh sound from a band that happily toys with jazz, rag time, punk and classical influences.</span></p>

His written work has appeared in The Village Voice, The Source, Artforum, Raygun, Rap Pages, Paper Magazine, and a host of other periodicals. Miller’s first collection of essays, <em>Rhythm Science</em>, was published by MIT Press in April 2004, and was included in several year-end lists of the best books of 2004, including the Guardian (UK) and Publishers Weekly. In 2005, <em>Sound Unbound</em>, an anthology of writings on sound art and multi-media by contemporary cultural theorists will follow <em>Rhythm Science</em>. Miller’s work as a media artist has appeared in a wide variety of contexts such as the Whitney Biennial; The Venice Biennial for Architecture (year 2000); the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Germany; Kunsthalle, Vienna; The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh and many other museums and galleries. His 2004 solo show at the Paula Cooper Gallery in New York, <em>Path Is Prologue</em>, echoed his live music/theater/film performance, “DJ Spooky’s <em>Rebirth of A Nation</em>, which ran simultaneously at the Lincoln Center Festival after premieres in Vienna and at Spoleto USA in Charleston, SC and continues to tour globally.<br />
<br />
But even with all this, Miller is most well known under the moniker of his "constructed persona" as “DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid". Miller has recorded a huge volume of music and has collaborated a wide variety of musicians and composers such as Iannis Xenakis, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Butch Morris, Kool Keith a.k.a. Doctor Octagon, Pierre Boulez, Killa Priest from Wu-Tang Clan, Steve Reich, Yoko Ono and Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth among many others. He also composed and recorded the music score for the Cannes and Sundance Award winning film <em>Slam</em>, starring critically acclaimed poet Saul Williams.<br />
<br />
Miller’s recent albums include <em>Optometry</em> (2002), a jazz project featuring Matthew Shipp, William Parker, Joe Mcphee, Carl Hancock Rux, Daniel Bernard Roumain, and High Priest from Anti-Pop Consortium; <em>Dubtometry</em> (2003), a dub remix of the same, featuring Lee “Scratch” Perry and Mad Professor; and <em>Riddim Clash</em> (2004), a collaboration with Twilight Dub Sound System. In June 2004, Thirsty Ear Recordings released his two-CD megamix called <em>Celestial Mechanix</em>, featuring eleven recent DJ Spooky remixes.<br />
<br />
In addition to his numerous records and articles released under the DJ Spooky name, other recent projects include the <em>Unfinished Stories</em> - a three way collaborative effort between Pulitzer Prize winning NY Times Critic At Large, Margo Jefferson, and Francesca Harper. Another important project was a collaboration with Bernard Tschumi, Dean of Columbia University's architecture department, and author of <em>Praxis: Event Cities</em>. This piece debuted at the Venice Bienniale of Architecture 2000. In the magazine world, Miller is co-publisher along with legendary African American downtown poet Steve Cannon of the magazine, <em>A Gathering of Tribes</em> – a periodical dedicated to new works by writers from a multicultural context and he was the first Editor-at-large of the cutting edge digital media magazine, <em>Artbyte: The Magazine of Digital Culture</em>.<br />
<br />
As DJ Spooky, Miller continues his globe-trotting appearances. In 2004 he played at festivals from France to Mexico City, performed a DJ concerto in Oakland and at Yale, gave numerous talks at prominent universities, and participated in the Microsoft’s International DJ Summit. Miller’s latest collaborative release <em>Drums of Death</em> features Dave Lombardo of <em>Slayer</em>, Chuck D. of<em> Public Enemy</em>, Vernon Reid of <em>Living Color</em>, and Jack Dangers of<em> Meat Beat Manifesto</em>. <em>Drums of Death</em> was released in April 2005 on Thirsty Ear Records.<br />
<br />
In June of 2006, DJ Spooky and Trojan Records released <em>In Fine Style: 50,000 Volts of Trojan Records</em>. <em>In Fine Style</em> is his way of introducing the vintage reggae sounds he grew up on to the DJ, club and art worlds he spins in today, and includes recordings by legends Lee Perry, John Holt, Desmond Dekker, Sly & Robbie, Peter Tosh and Barrington Levy. DJ Spooky set out not only to create a new mood for the club scene but to take club goers through the vital history of Trojan and its direct impact on DJ and club culture to this day. “This mix is a combination of the old, the new, and the in between,” he explains. “That's kind of the point: DJ culture in the 21st century is as much about the soundsystem as the playlist. I wanted to make a mix that reflected that: old and new.”"^^xsd:string |

I use rap music as a tool to bring about change in these present days and times. As a whole, we who have a heart and mind for a better world can make a differrence. We all must unite to put an end to the corruption plaguing our society. Music has that power.<br />
<br />
My first rap group was THE DEF 3. I used to have the name CLASSY D, the other two emcee's were CLASSY B (a.k.a. MC CLASS) and M&M. Those cats were the greatest emcee's of all time. One of my dreams would be to unite with those guys and make an album.<br />
<br />
Currently I make music with Lex Tutor, together we made the OPERATION LIBERATION record (my solo debut), & a new record to be released in Dec. '06<br />
<br />
I'm active in a few organizations. THE ALLIES OF HUMANITY, whose goal is to eradicate human suffering; OUR REPARATIONS MOVEMENT, this organization's goal is to recieve 40 trillion dollars for the 40 million descendants of africans who weren't paid for the labor they were forced to do; also HUMANS AGAINST RACIAL DISCRIMINATION, their immediate goal is the elimination of racial discrimination.<br />
<br />
We need your help. May the power of the Almighty keep you strong, and the resurrection of the Messiah Yeshua keep you tough and smart. Please keep listening and making music.<br />

He has produced his first album "Nuvole e Pioggia" in 2006. Songs inside show how eclectical is the Pierref's music approach. Some of these songs are more ambient electronic and new age oriented, some other more prog rock oriented.<br />
Next summer he's going to publish his second album “estatika”, searching for a homogenic genre, more electronic oriented. </p>"^^xsd:string |

Robert Levy <br />
Ariel Rejman <br />
Justin Grotelueschen <br />
<br />
Platinum Limb, via three instrumentalists of different levels of musical training and interest, is an experiment with sound via traditional and non-traditional instrumentation, often enhanced via effects. The music is largely improvised, and it is indeed experimental; in Platinum Limb, musical ideas come freely and repeatedly from hands and mouths, with each member utilizing enough force and restraint to create a unique, if slightly challenging, whole. The ebbing and flowing nature of the soundscapes allows for ideas to be teased out, with the intent of not provoking the audience to give attention to any one element over another. The results, both recorded and live, range from soft to loud, lighthearted to brooding, rhythmic to disjointed, but always retain an element of newness in the minds of the band members. Platinum Limb would like its audience to appreciate and scrutinize these results simultaneously, and to use the ideas presented as fuel to spark insight within the mind of each audience member."^^xsd:string |
| ?:Plug and play | "After a year of conspirational operating in absolute underground of seventh circle of hell-Lublin’s music scene, P&P decided to eventually come to the surface. The band consists of three members – Kuba, vocals and guitars, also responsible for music and lyrics, Wojtek, the bass player and Michal, the drummer. Their music is a synthesis of cold wave dynamics and post-punk melodies and fits into the big sack called indie. The fact that not once or twice girls in Indian clothes, wrapped in beads would show up at their concert is an evidence of Lublin indie music scene’s exceptionally fervent condition. Also their gigs would be advertised as Indian music concerts, and for that the band is extremely grateful to the local press up until today. A chance to come out of the garage emerged with freshly recorded band’s first demo which exemplifies band’s works and style that has shaped during the last year."^^xsd:string |
| ?:Pobl | "<strong>Who or what is pobl?</strong><br />
<br />
Nobody knows exactly who or what pobl is. Except of course for those who do, but in all likelihood they won't tell you. You have to read on to find out the details that are available, the facts if you will.<br />
<br />
Pobl sprung into existence in the summer of '78, but only carefully and silently began producing snds about 25 odd years later. A few early attempts were made before then, but, in hindsight, the results can only be called nostalgic or a mere substance of certain moments in time.<br />
<br />
It wasn't until the manifestation of Stereoshirt, that Pobl for the first time was able to open its eyes and aditionally could exercise its first signs of strength and insight. The Stereoshirt snds were thrown into being uncontrolled, wildly and chaotic, but in a certain consistent form that defined it and even made it exceptional and unique.<br />
<br />
After 20 years of lying dormant, Pobl slowly awakened and grew during that critical period, only to eventually eat away at what had awoken it. Completely undetected, Stereoshirt was being consumed from the inside out. It took another 5 years though, before there was no more left to devour and all of a sudden Pobl quite unexpectedly had to entirely stand on its own four(?) feet.<br />
<br />
Naked, insecure, afraid and vulnerable. It looked around cautiously, not very sure of what it was seeing or feeling. Then, for the first time since its initial creation, actual snds left its mouthlike orifice."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Porpoise | "<p><strong>Porpoise</strong> are a UK based band who formed around January 2007 when the bass player (<strong>Jon Behrendt</strong>), guitarist (<strong>Pete Stanley</strong>) & drummer (<strong>Gareth McCabe</strong>) disbanded their old band Dials. Realising they still wanted to make music more than anything else, Pete rallyed the band together hooking up with Singer/Guitarist <strong>Dave Halama</strong> (Knives Of Goya, Horse Called Chariot) who was known locally as a bit of a wizard of the shred. Their aim was to make noisy disjointed rock like their heros: Flaming Lips, Guided By Voices, Pavement, Fugazi, Pixies & Mastodon, mixing them with the pop sensibilities/country noise of bands like Queen, The Beatles, Neil Young & Lynard Skynard. It's fair to say the band are a bunch of musos, but they never take themselves too seriously. <br />
<br />
Late August 2007 saw the band put together their debut release 'III' which featured three tracks recorded with Tim parkes & Eddie Morton at the Infamous Katie Fitzgeralds Pub in Stourbridge, West Midlands. Since then the band have gone on to play a series of successful, often wild live gigs. <br />

Since the beginning of 1999, PropheXy stylistic evolution attracted those who have crossed their path and listened to their music in those first five years. While the core remained the same (Matteo, Davide and Stefano where there from the beginning) changes in lineup added to PropheXy's sound the non-conventional bass arrangements of Alessandro and the inspiration of the guitarist Mauro Minelli. Later on, Mauro took another musical direction, while the recent arrival of Marco (on the sax) pushed the band to record the new songs "Scarto Quadratico Medio" and "Plasticosmic". Is clearly a major change in the musical direction followed by PropheXy. A deal is signed with the booking agency "CDT Promotion" which now manages band's gigs and merchandising. Despite the young age of the components of the band (around 25) many concerts where held in the past years, and two album released. Both "The Distance Behind" (2001) and "Enforce Evolve" (2003) received enthusiastic reviews from press and webzines. After the partecipation on the Italian official tribute to King Crimson ("The Letters - An Italian Unconventional Guide to King Crimson" - produced by Mellow Records) PropheXy decided to completely look forward to the next album, following the tradition of recording all tracks in their own studio. The band is currently working on the set of the next tour named "ScarTour", whose kick-off is to be announced around Spring 2006."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Radio Nowhere | "What do you want to know about Radio Nowhere?<br /><br />
Hi. My name's Mike.<br />
<br />
I write all the songs and do the singing and guitar playing. I put the band together and recorded our debut album after five or six years of playing strange house parties and stupid coffeehouses, but there are a few other things that probably have more to do with Radio Nowhere than the late-90s open mic scene in san francisco.<br />
<br />
1) When I was growing up, my family would drive from the Bay Area to Idaho every summer. Back in the day, when you crossed the Nevada and Utah deserts, the only radio you could get was this classical AM station out of Salt Lake. In order to keep the kids from beating each other to death, my mom would make up stories to go along with the sonatas and fugues we were hearing. There was one I especially liked about the bloodthirsty Mouse King and his sworn enemy, the Baron d-Con. So I got imprinted with the whole combination of music, empty roads and stories early on.<br />
<br />
2) I played saxophone in my high school jazz band. One class, after the bell rang but before the teacher showed up, our guitar player stopped running dom13b9 arpeggios, whipped out a Boss Metal Zone pedal and started playing Back in Black so loud that one of the clarinet players vomited. Before that, it had never occurred to me that you could actually learn songs that the radio played, and play them yourself (I hear that people who are actually cool had this same epiphany with the Sex Pistols--close enough).<br />
<br />
3) When I was six, my dad borrowed my record player to listen to one of the 78s (!) that his band had cut back when he was in high school (The Vagabond Five, rockin' the Montpelier, ID metro area from '52 to '55, yo). When he was done, I trawled through his record collection looking for the shiniest, most colorful album cover and played the lp inside, which turned out to be Sgt. Pepper's. Psychedelicized at six--it's hard to recover.<br />
<br />
So that's really the most important stuff. I should probably say some more pertinent things about another band I'm in, Slim (with former members of Primus, Counting Crows, 3rd Eye Blind, Mazzy Star, Van Morrison's band), the Slim record (it's called "Interstate Medicine", you can get it at record stores across the U.S., and everywhere on the internets), and the live show (real good, sold out San Francisco clubs [Slim's, Cafe du Nord, Hotel Utah, Red Devil Lounge], but I'm soooo bored of that shit. So I'll just say some more about me.<br />
<br />
I play a black strat that some previous owner apparently took a belt sander to in a vain attempt to give it some Stevie Ray mojo, and I often run it through one of those PB&J-sized Marshall amps--perfect for clipping to your belt and chasing the cat through your house with the riff to Crazy Train.<br />
<br />
I crank my amps louder than Tom Petty, but not as loud as Cannibal Corpse. I'm wordier than Jane's Addiction, but not as yappy as e.e. cummings.<br />
<br />
I'm taller than Prince, but not as tall as Krist Novoselic.<br />
<br />
I write most of my songs while I'm driving, on an ancient Casio keyboard bungee-corded to the passenger seat. This is not safe. Last summer, I got pulled over doing 80 in a 45 because I was so cranked about this chorus I was writing (Casio rock rhythm no.6 is very inspiring!). Then I almost drove off a mountain.<br />
<br />
I have rocked crowds of several hundred people with nothing more than an acoustic guitar and a well-timed Britney Spears cover (were they sober? No)."^^xsd:string |

In his solo shows, Straschill combines the input of synthesizers, drum machines, his signature "weirdbass" and saxophones and trombone with the processing of dedicated devices, computers and loop recorders (dubbed by Straschill as "whimsical electronics") to an output which defies any stilistic qualification. Audients at his shows found themselves confronted with a vast crossover of abstract experimental eletronica, singer-songwriter stylings and drum'n'bass breakbeats.

| ?:Ristikiehtova | "Ristikiehtova (A.K.A Kontrakiehtova) is a solo project concerning itself with esoteric kinds of aesthetics, tongue-in-cheek mysticism and combining and unifying both emotional and logical opposites. Each release is quite different from the last - whatever is necessary to bring forth the intented idea and smack the listener to the back of the head with it (among other, more subtle things). In the end, I doubt you'll ever be able to relax while listening to an album under the name of Ristikiehtova.<br />
<br />
The project's name is in finnish and means at least three different things. One of them portrays the strange, timeless fascination humankind has had and still has with different kinds of symbols, up to them acquiring a whole-culture-permeating religious charge. One of them is of the life's difficulties' cathartic values. One of them is self-ironic, signifying the essentiality of wholeness: any certain role grows tiresome and perditious if continuing too long.<br />
<br />
The essence of Ristikiehtova slowly formed during the years of 2005 and 2006, the first manifestations being nothing more but misguided attempts at creating different experimental moods. Fortunately everything compiled and created from those days on has been approached differently, in an overall more succesful fashion. The genre at this point (at least in the yet unreleased works) should be called "eclectic new age horror music". Sounds oxymoronic? You should know by now."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Robson, Sax, Garritt & Goodheart | ""Robson, Sax and Garritt" was born in 1997 as an outlet for the home studio explorations of Syd Sax<br />
(born in Naples, 19th july 1980) into psychedelic, experimental and progressive music.<br />
In fact Syd had already been making music for several years prior to this and was a musically precocious<br />
teenager who taught himself to play guitar and keyboards.<br />
His early tape releases with band of Five Points had already become known in the musical underground.<br />
In 1995 Syd started the project that would take him into the professional music world.<br />
An art-rock trio Eclipse formed with keyboard player Jule Robson and the keyboard and bass player<br />
Louis Garritt. But the project began life almost as a joke between three friends.<br />
Syd and his friend Louis developed an almost entirely fictional history of a legendary seventies group<br />
complete with non-existent band members and an absurd discography - this was "Robson, Sax & Garritt".<br />
To back up the story Jule, Louis & Syd recorded several hours worth of music supposedly<br />
by this imaginary band.<br />
This was ultimately to take another 24 months or so to come to fruition and in the meantime Syd began<br />
to distribute RS&G's music in the form of "Echoes demos" and it's follow up "Are your ears ok?",<br />
both complete with booklets containing the imaginary history and other misleading information.<br />
These tapes built up an underground interest in the name which was added to by the eventual release<br />
of the newly named "Sax Records" record label's first compilation album "Pizza Attack" which featured<br />
the Robson, Sax & Garritt's track "Xalerazzip". Sax Records also reissued the first 2 RS&G tapes.<br />
Shortly afterwards Syd was invited by the new label to be one of the first artists to sign to the<br />
Tordycore label.<br />
The original invitation was to reissue both the tapes as double albums, but Syd decided instead to compile<br />
the best material onto one album which became "PizzAttack", the 1st release on the new label. <br />
"PizzAttack" was issued in early 1996 in a small run of 100 copies in a deluxe squallid plastic sleeve.<br />
Such was the interest from the press and public that this small run sold out almost immediately and was<br />
repressed along with a CD version. Among other tracks the album contained a future RS&G classic and<br />
frequent concert encore in "Pizza Relax". By 2000 "PizzAttack" had racked up sales of 296 copies.<br />
<br />
As the first Robson, Sax & Garritt album had been very much a self indulgent and in some ways nostalgic look<br />
back at trio's favourite music from the 60's and 70's they felt in order to take the project forward it was important<br />
to develop the sound into new and more contemporary areas. The first fruits of these new sessions was a 46<br />
minute single that fused the Brain (then the biggest thing in music) and sperimental music, all strung together<br />
with a narrative taken from ancient animal legends.<br />
It was a major underground hit, reaching the European independent Top 50 and a perfect representation<br />
of how the dissolution of boundaries between genres characterised the best music of the nineties.<br />
<br />
In fact "Eruption" was a track recorded for another prospective RS&G album "Rattus (The Strones of years)".<br />
However, when the album eventually emerged in mid 1998 the decision not to include the single had slimmed<br />
down the album to a single record. "Rattus (The Strones of years)" was greeted with rapture, Melody Maker <br />
describing it as "a psychedelic masterpiece.... one of the albums of the year".<br />
The album continued the fusion of pop and rock and also featured guest appearances from two future and past<br />
RS&G David Gideon (ex Five Points - singer and flute player) and the guitar player Frank Goodheart.<br />
All two members of the group had worked with Jule, Louis & Syd on various projects over the preceding years<br />
and all were excellent musicians sympathetic to the sound and direction of RS&G. <br />
<br />
New music was already underway. The next album would not emerge until mid 1999, but was preceded<br />
by the classic single "Rattus Inferno / Vision and voice of angels". The subsequent album "The return of the Rattus"<br />
was as expansive soundscape of melody and ambient rock experimentation, but would prove to be a transitional<br />
work with half recorded before the formation of the band and half recorded after.<br />
Most of the album was taken up with the 90 minute title track, which at one point Syd intended to be long enough<br />
to occupy the whole album ! It also entered European Week charts.<br />
This album became the first RS&G music to be issued in America in the autumn of 1999 and attracted very<br />
favourable press on both sides of the Atlantic. The band supported the album with numerous gigs throughout<br />
the year at major venues in Italy. <br />
Partly unsatisfied with the half band/half solo nature of "Rattus (The Strones of years)", RS&G promptly<br />
got down to the task of recording the first proper band record and worked sporadically over the next year on<br />
developing a tighter and more ambitious rock sound.<br />
<br />
In 1999 the RS&G's first ever line-up change occurred when Frank Goodheart join the band in full time.<br />
The time spent looking for a record deal had not been wasted and only a few months after the release of<br />
"The return of the Rattus" the band were ready to begin work on a follow up, recorded during the transition<br />
into the new millennium and completed in 2000. May 2000 saw the release of the first fruits of these sessions,<br />
the single "Tarantelle Blues" which entered all European charts and the US National chart attracting airplay<br />
all over Europe. The new line up had an immediate chemistry as illustrated by the "Pite (Tales of an<br />
australopitecantropicus REX)" album (issued on vinyl only in 2001) which contained recordings from their<br />
first ever 2 performances, including a Green Light Station Radio session. Sessions took place in Australia.<br />
The band went on to complete a highly successful European tour. The band ended 2001 with a sold out show<br />
at the Capaldo in Naples.<br />
<br />
Expected to be their most accomplished and expansive work to date, the album is scheduled for 2003 release."^^xsd:string |

<p align="center"><strong></strong></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Art can be divided into two parts. Ninety-nine percent of art is subjective art. Only one percent is objective art. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">The subjective art means you are pouring your subjectivity onto the canvas, your dreams, your imaginations, your fantasies. It is a projection of your psychology. The same happens in poetry, in music, in all dimensions of creativity - you are not concerned with the person who is going to see your painting, not concerned what will happen to him when he looks at it; that is not your concern at all. Your art is simply a kind of vomiting. It will help you, just the way vomiting helps. It takes the nausea away, it makes you cleaner, makes you feel healthier. But you have not considered what is going to happen to the person who is going to see your vomit. He will become nauseous. He may start feeling sick.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Look at the paintings of Picasso. He is a great painter, but just a subjective artist. Looking at his paintings, you will start feeling sick, dizzy, something going berserk in your mind. You cannot go on looking at Picasso's painting for long. You would like to get away, because the painting has not come from a silent being. It has come from a chaos. It is a byproduct of a nightmare. But ninety-nine percent of art belongs to that category.</font></p>
<p> <font face="Arial">Objective art is just the opposite. The man has nothing to throw out, he is utterly empty, absolutely clean. Out of this silence, out of this emptiness arises love, compassion. And out of this silence arises a possibility for creativity. This silence, this love, this compassion - these are the qualities of meditation.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Meditation brings you to your very center. And your center is not only your center, it is the center of the whole existence. Only on the periphery we are different. As we start moving toward the center, we are one. We are part of eternity, a tremendously luminous experience of ecstasy that is beyond words. Something that you can be... but very difficult to express it. But a great desire arises in you to share it, because all other people around you are groping for exactly such experiences. And you have it, you know the path.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">There are in India statues, which you have just to sit silently and meditate upon. Just look at those statues. They have been made by meditators in such a way, in such a proportion, that just looking at the statue, the figure, the proportion, the beauty... Everything is very calculated to create a similar kind of state within you. And just sitting silently with a statue of Buddha or Mahavira, you will come across a strange feeling, which you cannot find in sitting by the side of any Western sculpture.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">All Western sculpture is sexual. You see the Roman sculpture: beautiful, but something creates sexuality in you. It hits your sexual center. It does not give you an uplift. In the East the situation is totally different. Statutes are carved, but before a sculptor starts carving statues he learns meditation. Before he starts playing on the flute he learns meditation. Before he starts writing poetry he learns meditation. Meditation is absolute necessity for any art; then the art will be objective.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Unless you are a creator, you will never find real blissfulness. It is only by creating that you become part of the great creativity of the universe. But to be a creator, meditation is a basic necessity. Without it you can paint, but that painting has to be burned, it has not to be shown to others. It was good, it helped you unburden, but please, don't burden anybody else. Don't present it to your friends, they are not your enemies. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Objective art is meditative art, subjective art is mind art.</font></p>

| ?:Say It Again Lucas | "This four piece rock group out of Tampa, FL arose out of the ashes of Soy Bomb in 2003. After the departure of the eldest LaRochelle brother(Joey) which effectively exploded the bomb, guitarist Shem Lehmann moved to bass, providing drummer Luke Lehmann and guitarist/vocalist Benjamin LaRochelle with a creative spark which thus ignited Say It Again Lucas.<br />
<br />
Over the next year they reached the pinnacle of their creative powers: the half hour long Trio, comprised of Carelessly, Marcucio's Lament, and Capulet's and Montague's. As their creative cylinders began to fire thusly, Shem suddenly departed to California.<br />
<br />
Enter James Stasko, longtime friend but relatively new musician. After stumbling about for a few months, with much internal drama Say It Again Lucas hit their stride with tracks such as Amethyst, The D-Octave Thing, and The Jivey Song, all of which were unveiled at the landmark Skipper's Smokehouse gig, but were largely overshadowed by the infamous "Red Scarf Incident".<br />
<br />
Fast Forward to October 2005, to the return of Shem from the northern reaches of California, back to resume his bass playing duties. James moved to guitar which contributed to a much fuller overall sound for the band. In between trips to Mexico, by Ben and Shem, and sporadic shows the bands creative talent was shown to be stronger ever with the inception of the impressively diverse song Encore.<br />
<br />
They are currently on a hiatus from live performances so as to focus on recording their first full-length album."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Scott Alexander | "Scott Alexander grew up in the tough streets of Mendota Heights, Minnesota and studied bassoon and lute at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore. It was clear, however, that he could never submit to the classical aesthetics of consistency and technical flawlessness. Scott transferred to UCLA where he earned a degree in ethnomusicology studying musical function, aesthetics, and performance contexts in various societies. Though fascinated by foreign cultures, he was also frustrated by academic detachment from his own: the suburban and eclectic countercultures, which are often overlooked as culture altogether. Scott Alexander's music recognizes the power and substance of American musical traditions by maintaining an intelligible pop-sensibility, while offering an alternative aesthetic that celebrates everyday wandering thought: embracing mistakes, imperfection, and instability.
Although Scott exhibits inspiration from artists such as Lou Reed, Jonathan Richman, Billy Bragg, and Tom Waits, the influence of his classical training can be witnessed in his music as well. Scott structures his songs to emphasize the emotions and thoughts behind them. His music lies somewhere between drama and song. Catchy for about 6 seconds at a time, his songs are void of verse-refrain repetition, opting instead for a constant melodic and rhythmic flux that emphasize a range of topics most are too awkward to talk about with such intense sincerity. Alone with an electric baritone guitar, Scott's music is appropriately naked, bearing and embracing every nuance of an unstable moment.
Scott's unique approach to songwriting and performance transcend into many other aspects of his artistry. His promotional efforts are approached as performance art, creatively executed to be as personal and sincere as possible. In addition to teaching music in inner city and suburban classrooms, he founded and directed the Choice Chamber Music Program, which was uniquely designed to remove music from a school context and catered to those with a more casual ambitions. Scott also authored Our Music, a column on Cdbabel.com that addressing cultural self-consciousness in response to a rapidly evolving industrial influence.
Scott's latest project, Scott Alexander Makes Friends, includes a new collection of songs as well as an interactive website and performance campaign which remains true to his music, eagerly inviting others to revel in the nexus of sincerity and self-consciousness."^^xsd:string |

<p>During the last 6 or 7 years I have written many tracks which are a fusion of - ambient, dance, trance, drum 'n' bass, lounge and jazz. In 1999 I released my first 'real' album which contained tracks from all of the above genres. Since then I have written many new tunes which have remained mostly unreleased. Some time ago I decided that rather than release all new music in a single album which covered all the genres, I would instead start grouping my various tracks in to themed compilations giving them a more natural flow from start to finish through the whole album. </p>
<p> What I have now are four albums, each one winding its own path and taking you on its own journey. Putting these albums together has been a lot of work and meant remastering a lot of the original material to create a steady feel across each of the albums. <br />
</p>
<p>Some albums have been available through my websites or local shops for a while now, but now I've decided to make my favourite of these albums available for free.

| ?:Slim | "What do you want to know about Slim?
<br /><br />
Well, probably the first thing to mention is that Slim is always a little different. I play solo acoustic shows as Slim, and when the full band comes together, we call it the same thing. Confusing but efficient.
<br /><br />
I write all the songs and do the singing and guitar playing. My name's Mike. I put the band together and recorded our debut album after five or six years of playing strange house parties and stupid coffeehouses, but there are a few other things that probably have more to do with Slim than the late-90s open mic scene in san francisco.
<br /><br />
1) When I was growing up, my family would drive from the Bay Area to Idaho every summer. Back in the day, when you crossed the Nevada and Utah deserts, the only radio you could get was this classical AM station out of Salt Lake. In order to keep the kids from beating each other to death, my mom would make up stories to go along with the sonatas and fugues we were hearing. There was one I especially liked about the bloodthirsty Mouse King and his sworn enemy, the Baron d-Con. So I got imprinted with the whole combination of music, empty roads and stories early on.
<br /><br />
2) I played saxophone in my high school jazz band. One class, after the bell rang but before the teacher showed up, our guitar player stopped running dom13b9 arpeggios, whipped out a Boss Metal Zone pedal and started playing Back in Black so loud that one of the clarinet players vomited. Before that, it had never occurred to me that you could actually learn songs that the radio played, and play them yourself (I hear that people who are actually cool had this same epiphany with the Sex Pistols--close enough).
<br /><br />
3) When I was six, my dad borrowed my record player to listen to one of the 78s (!) that his band had cut back when he was in high school (The Vagabond Five, rockin' the Montpelier, ID metro area from '52 to '55, yo). When he was done, I trawled through his record collection looking for the shiniest, most colorful album cover and played the lp inside, which turned out to be Sgt. Pepper's. Psychedelicized at six--it's hard to recover.
<br /><br />
So that's really the most important stuff. I should probably say some more pertinent things about the band (former members of Primus, Counting Crows, 3rd Eye Blind, Mazzy Star, Van Morrison's band), the record (it's called "Interstate Medicine", you can get it pretty much everywhere (it's on the radio everywhere too), and a bunch of other typical promotional stuff, but I find that gets boring really fast - don't you?
<br /><br />
So I'll just say some more about me.
<br /><br />
I play a black strat that some previous owner apparently took a belt sander to in a vain attempt to give it some Stevie Ray mojo, and I often run it through one of those PB&J-sized Marshall amps--perfect for clipping to your belt and chasing the cat through your house with the riff to Crazy Train.
<br /><br />
I crank my amps louder than Tom Petty, but not as loud as Cannibal Corpse.
<br /><br />
I'm wordier than Jane's Addiction, but not as yappy as e.e. cummings.
<br /><br />
I'm taller than Prince, but not as tall as Krist Novoselic.
<br /><br />
I write most of my songs while I'm driving, on an ancient Casio keyboard bungee-corded to the passenger seat. This is not safe. Last summer, I got pulled over doing 80 in a 45 because I was so cranked about this chorus I was writing (Casio rock rhythm no.6 is very inspiring!). Then I almost drove off a mountain.
<br /><br />
I have rocked crowds of several hundred people with nothing more than an acoustic guitar and a well-timed Britney Spears cover (were they sober? No)."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Staggered Crossing | "<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When a band is together for more than a decade and sells in excess of 20,000 records, plays upwards of 500 shows, spends more than a dozen weeks atop of the Canadian rock charts with countless spins on the radio and television, and are hailed by the then-Prime Minister of Canada as his favorite band, they must be doing something right. However, even the mighty suffer bumps and bruises along the way.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Formed in 1995 in Toronto, Staggered Crossing has been climbing the Canadian rock echelon for more than a decade, skipping rungs here and sliding back there. They've been championed by a major label, yet were unexpectedly dropped less than a year after their red-hot album was released. They've won awards for their songs, only to have to fight tooth and nail in a court of law to secure their publishing rights. They've showcased their trademark high-energy live show on major tours across the country, while managers, bandmates and supporters alike have come and gone. And to top it all off, bassist Dan Black endured a near-fatal snowmobile accident in the winter of 2004 that nearly spelled the end of the band. Nevertheless, as horrific as the experience was for the bassist and his bandmates, a silver lining appeared: throughout his recovery, Black learned to truly appreciate what it means to be a part of the StagX brotherhood.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
"If it had not been for my band and the music we were writing and recording at the time, mentally, I would not have recovered as fast," he says. "I was able to focus on the musical goals, channeling it into a drive and a passion to get over the mental hump and finding the strength to get my physical health in order. I learned a lot about myself and chose to take as many positives and as much strength as I can out of a very bad situation."</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Indeed, in the long run, the highs and lows don't really matter the focal point is that the members of Staggered Crossing truly love what they do.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"It's amazing to me that I have been in this band for ten years," says drummer Jeremy Elliott. "When I think about the fact that so much in my life has changed, but the one constant remains the band, I am blown away. Who would have thought that three guys would be such a major part of my life for so long? Like I told a girlfriend who screamed one night that I didn't know anything about commitment because I bailed on her to go rehearse: I have been in a celibate relationship with three men for ten years. I fucking define commitment."</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now controlling their destiny through their own record label, management and production company (</span><a target="_self" href="http://www.myspace.com/bentpennyrecords" style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Bent Penny Records</a><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">), Staggered Crossing is back to the basics. Fully prepared to do battle in the often-harsh music industry, their unparalleled work ethic and unbridled passion for bringing quality music to the people is what will bring the band back to the top.</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<br style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"We all really firmly agree that the music were making is really great music that we like listening to," says vocalist Julian 'J.T.' Taylor. "We've found that there are other people who are into it, too. If one person likes it, its enough to keep it going if its something that you really believe in and love. We're also a really tight-knit bunch of friends. We have our ups and downs, obviously, but we're all really happy about what we've been able to accomplish."</span>"^^xsd:string |

| ?:Stellar Vector | "<p>There is a band of five men called Stellar Vector working hard in Minneapolis, MN. They have spent many nights in their lab re-tooling progressive rock for the 21st century, drawing on the memes and dialects of Rush, Radiohead, David Bowie and Genesis, infusing these greats with the traditions of industrial, electronica, indie and punk. They have resuscitated a genre that was initially left for dead among the shadow of alternative rock.</p>
<p>Some time ago, Stellar Vector decided to flip the switch on their creation. The result is a polished performance that tugs at the heartstrings (among a few other organs). Vocalist Charles Sadler deftly weaves stories and poetry with a healthy dose of Shakespearian fatality. Guitarists Daniel Auger and Jonathan Ford assemble a deeply textured soundscape. Bassist Andy McClure and drummer Mark Haider grind passion into rhythms. On any given evening, the audience witnesses the full gamut of emotions, in addition to the occasional technocide.*</p>
<p>Stellar Vector released an EP entitled "You're Not Included.". It was Produced by EV Olcott (12 Rods, Halloween Alaska and DotDotDot) in cooperation with Jonathan Ford at Integral Studios.</p>

| ?:Stephan CArtier® | "Sthephane Chartier nasce nel 1975, e già dai primi giorni di vita si rende conto che la sua esistenza sarà tutt'altro che normale; nasce in bilico fra due mondi, su un aereo che trasportava i sui genitori dalla Germania, loro paese natio (dal quale se ne andavano per sfuggire a pesanti debiti di gioco) , al Brasile, dove passerà tutta la sua infanzia.<br />
Vede così la luce nello spazio aereo internazionale al di sopra dell'atlantico, di cittadinanza incerta, quasi metafora del suo oscillante vivere tra due mondi distanti senza mai riuscire ad appartenere a nessuno dei due, così indeciso tra la lacerante follia che porta all'autoannientamento e la geniale pazzia che porta alla gloria e al successo tra gli uomini.<br />
La sua vita non fu facile, la sua infanzia, passata in un paese dal quale si sentiva estraneo e diverso accresce la sua già spiccata tendenza all'isolamento alla solitudine.<br />
Il suo amore per la musica nasce fin da subito: a 5 anni è gia un espertissimo suonatore di jambè e si dedica alla pittura di nature morte raffiguranti noci di cocco.<br />
Torna in patria all'età di 12 anni per frequentare le scuole medie superiori. In quegli anni si manifesta la sua componente aggressiva e psicotica: a 16 anni si barrica nel liceo tenendo in ostaggio alcuni professori, come protesta contro l'eccessiva bruttezza delle bidelle presenti nell'istituto.<br />
Passa alcuni anni tra vari istituti di malattia mentale, ma ciò non arresta il suo genio: impara da autodidatta a suonare numerosi strumenti a fiato (iniziando dall'armonica, facile da suonare anche con la camicia di forza, fino ad arrivare al sax e alla tromba).<br />
È di questo periodo l'adolescenziale "Ahhhh" agghiacciante lavoro autobiografico che scrive sotto lo pseudonimo di "Smilzo", in realtà uno psicopatico con tendenze suicide incontrato durante la degenza in uno dei tanti ospedali psichiatrici.<br />
Il lavoro è un paranoico grido contro la vita, lanciato con veemenza sconcertante: il suo male di vivere lo sta già divorando senza sosta. Come avrà a dire qualche anno più tardi in una canzone per ora edita solo in Turchia, per lui "la vita è il lento e fatale spegnersi di ogni speranza","una parabola discendente che termina in una latrina".<br />
Fuggito dall'ennesimo istituto si rifugia in Italia, dove vivrà il suo unico periodo di serenità rifugiandosi in un piccolo paesino della campagna lucchese: Antaccoli. Qui fa vita di pastore, comprando un gregge e iniziando la produzione di ricotta, un formaggio tipico della tradizione contadina. In Italia incontra anche l'amore: Elisabetta Modiglioni, l'unica donna che è riuscita a far battere il suo cuore. Scrive in quei mesi pezzi di rara bellezza e dolcezza, tutti dedicati al suo amore. Vende il suo gregge e si organizza per sposare la giovane, ma questa, misteriosamente, scompare nel nulla, lasciando solo un nebuloso messaggio, nel quale sembrava trasparire la sua totale e marcata repulsione per il giovane Stephan, per ogni centimetro del suo corpo e per la sua mene, il suo modo di muoversi e perfino il suo odore. Questo darà il colpo di grazia al già fragile cuor di Stephan. Preso da follia omicida, brucerà tutte le suo opere e i campi comprati con tanto sacrificio, si mozzerà il mignolo in segno di lutto e fuggirà in Marocco, alla ricerca di un nuovo spettacolare modo per togliersi la vita.<br />
Inizia invece a comporre il suo secondo album …. Nel quale sembra aver imparato a controllare e incanalare il suo dolore e la sua arte: finalmente un'opera banale e sciatta che riscontra un discreto successo in Europa e Usa. Contattato dai più grandi artisti del periodo da alla vita brani del calibro di "Baby one more time", in collaborazione con Britney Spears, "La vida loca", che regalerà poi all'amico e compagno Ricky Martin, "Un mese di ritardo" inspirata dalla figlia di Gigi D'Alessio e poi venduta al padre...<br />
Scrive i testi di molte canzoni di Minghi e Valeria Rossi. Collabora alla sceneggiatura di molti film di successo come Indipendent day, X-man, Armageddon, Se scappi ti sposo, Nothing Hill e altri...<br />
Giunto all'apice del successo rivelerà di avere un piano segreto per la distruzione del mondo, che tutto ciò che aveva fatto e prodotto in quegli anni faceva parte del piano, di essere già riuscito a portare tanta distruzione, dolore e degrado e di avere ancora tanto da fare...<br />
Scompare quindi nel nulla. Di lui non si hanno avute più notizie…<br />"^^xsd:string |

| ?:SUR | "<p>The group SUR began to take shape in the end of 2001, when its founder Borut Praper wrote music for the dance theatre performance Lust by Sebastjan Staric. At first SUR was strictly a studio project with a couple of active members and several guest musicians. All of the material was recorded in the group's home studio, where this part of the project was concluded successfully and in May 2004 SUR self-published their first album, "<strong>Na jug</strong>" ("<strong>Southbound</strong>"). <br />
<br />
After the album was released, the permanent members of the group adapted some of the material for live acts and performed at a few concerts. However, this has not become the main focus of the band, since the members have to deal with impossible logistics (they are from totally different parts of Slovenia). Since 2003 the main preoccupation of SUR collective was studio work and, to date, they signed the soundtracks for five theatre performances and a short film.<br />
<br />
In 2005 the group started working on their second album, entitled "<strong>Druga stran</strong>" ("<strong>Second Side</strong>"), which was published in July 2007 and will be published here in about 6 months. Without a doubt this release is an important step in the development of the group and it sounds much "heavier" than the first one.<br />
<br />
Slovenian press imaginatively characterised the music of SUR as <em>"ambiental-rock-jazz-electronica"</em>. This may even be mostly true of the first record, though the members of SUR like to call themselves <em>"alternative ambient anarchistic hippie progressive psychedelic metal-munching jazzy trip hoppy funky beer drinkers and spritzer aficionadoes"</em>...<br />
<br />
The full-time members of SUR are: Neza Trobec Teropsic – vocals, Monika Fritz – backing vocals and lyrics, Jure Praper – guitar, Aljaz Tulimirovic – guitar, Samo Pecar – bass and Borut Praper – drums, keyboards, programming, lyrics. <br />
<br />
Guest musicians and contributors on the first two albums and frequent collaborators in the other projects of the SUR collective include: Marko Djukic (lyrics, vocals), Rok Predin (lyrics, vocals, acoustic guitar), Dusan Rebolj (lyrics, vocals, acoustic guitar), Matevz Salehar (vocals), Vasko Atanasovski (saxophone, flute), Stojan Kralj (bass, fretless bass, guitar), Andrej Hrvatin (percussion), Janez Vouk (trumpet), Marko Zorec (guitar), Jelena Zdrale (violin, viola), Nino de Gleria (cello) and Tomaz Strucl (vocals and beer-side battle plans).<br />
<br />
The name SUR may mean many things, but the members like to tell people it is actually an acronym for <em>"samostalna ugostiteljska radnja" – "independent catering service"</em>... Which is also the name of the studio where the group ponders its masterpieces.<br />
<br />
Lately the SUR collective has once again focused mainly on its studio work and a few other projects.<br />

That must explain its "experimental" sounding :)<br />

The New York City based group formed in early 1991 as a bi-weekly jazz jam band playing in small clubs in and around the metro area. They eventually landed an eight month long running gig playing every two weeks at the 55Bar in Greenwich Village. The original band lineup consisted of Bob Sharkey on guitar/electronics, Peter Dragotta on trumpet/electronics, Chris Dragotta on alto sax, Steve Decker on electric/acoustic bass and Claude Coleman Jr. on drums. The band had alternate and <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">substitute</span> members that included drummers Jason Wildman, Charles Ruggiero, and bassist Steve Watson. To many who first heard them, they sounded weird and alien. Yet, they were able to build a small following.<br />
<br />
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS'">Heavily influenced by the music of Ornette Coleman; the band first started out playing eclectic interpretations and reconstructions of his music and traditional jazz standards, rarely following any chord structure while infusing a tapestry of jazz, rock and funk flavors. Some members of the band would describe their sound at the time as Electronic Free Jazz. Their sound and their focus evolved when band members Bob Sharkey, Peter Dragotta, and Steve Decker began contributing their own compositions. Bob and Peter also refined their use of electronics on their instruments. <br />
<br />
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS'">As recognition and awareness of their unique sound was beginning to grow, The James Quintet dissolved in July of 1993. They never officially broke up. The original band members were all active with other bands and side projects that were taking off. Unfortunately their availability to play together was never in sync. <br />

Most people, when hearing our music for the first time, closely associate it with 'movie music.' Sometimes the music contains enough non-musical elements for people to hear it as a movie soundtrack.

Often in the soul search we attune our goal to attain a key, which, is for a door (barrier) which holds the information or the perception we need. Without a key there is no lock which vaults the door (barrier).Without any keys all knowledge is accessible, all barriers disappear. It's like this "When we find it, the searching stops. When I found the key for the door the search for the key was over. If I had no key to search for, there would be no door to open" Do you see?<br />

I'm active in music production since 1992. I work as a stand alone composer, arranger and electronic music producer. I have composed and recorded numerous instrumental compositions during the years, including those that was used as sound-tracks for TV production, DVDs and music albums. I have also collaborated with various musicians as a producer, composer and keyboarder including rock group "Faust", new age ensemble "Ocean of Bliss" and pop-fusion group "Senzar". I've played various musical genres, including pop, rock, hip-hop, new age, fusion, jazz and contemporary music, but </span>electronic music is direction that I was always tending to go to. <br />
<br />
I always tend to create recognizable easy listening style with spacious multi layered arrangement, expressive harmonization, distinctive melody line, polyrhythmic beats and occasionally jazz influenced solos. On one side, my style is strongly influenced with almost predictable electronic music progressions and on the other side, there are elements of surpirse, improvistaion and unexpectable harmonic turns. I like to combine complementary musical motifs bolded with fat synth-pad and rhythmic patterns, based on solid electronic sound architecture. To be more precise, there are actually two main musical directions in which I'm developing my sound and production. First direction is blend of electronic, ambiental, contemporary and new age music, such as music album "<a href="http://www.ocvirek.com/music/index.htm#ephemeris">Ephemeris</a>". Second direction is blend of smooth jazz *, rhythmic fusion with funky elements and jazz licks and catchy improvisations on Piano, Hammond, Moog or Fender Rhodes."^^xsd:string |

Since forming in 1997, Topology has built a solid audience, and regularly performs to sold-out houses around Australia. The group's concerts are broadcast nationally by the ABC.<br />
<br />
Topology is often collaborating - this year, it's been with Terry Riley (minimalist legend), Tyrone Noonan (from the band george) and Kate Miller-Heidke (one of today's most amazing popera divas). <br />
<br />
Nothing if not flexible, Topology is often found in the theatre, in art galleries, clubs, accompanying silent film, even supporting pop groups such as Savage Garden in 10000-seat arenas. But their typical home is in the concert hall; in addition to their annual concert series, they are frequently featured in festivals.<br />
<br />
The group has given a wide range of performances, from experimental Fluxus music at the Queensland Art Gallery to the Sydney Olympic Arts Festival, playing nightly The Marriage of Figaro, directed by Neil Armfield and starring Geoffrey Rush. In between shows, they performed the opening concert for the Sydney Spring Festival (where they received Best Ensemble Award in 1999), and were resident ensemble at the University of Western Sydney.<br />
<br />
Topology continues to work with and consult with many international composers, including those from Canada (Tim Brady), the UK (Andrew Poppy, Michael Nyman, Jeremy Peyton Jones), the US (William Duckworth, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, Carl Stone, Paul Dresher) and with many Australian composers."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Turkish Delight The Opera | "<p>Turkish Delight the Opera is an exciting brand new musical-opera by Giles Howe and Katy Lipson. It is a tragi-comedy, and has been performed twice in London so far to an extatic reception. Lots of coloratura soprano singing, and already a gay cult following! The music is neither classical opera nor average musical theatre, you will have to listen to it yourself to tick it into a box!<br />
</p>
If you only get the chance to listen to one or two songs, I suggest you listen to 'Folly Of Youth' and Angel Delight in Act I live at The Black Cap, and in Act II, I strongly reccommend the songs 'You Think I'm Stupid', 'The Poisoning', 'Over You', the second half of 'Through The Years', and also the finale 'Turkish Delight reprise' in Act II.<br />
<br />
In my opinion, Act II is much stronger than Act I, I hope you have the patience to listen to both to decide for yourself!!<br />
<br />
Both the style of singing and the atmosphere is entireley different in the cast album Live At St Mary's. Let me know which you prefer!<br />
<br />
Giles and Katy (composers), plus Gareth, Natasha, Sophie, Daniel and Jess who performed in the show can be contacted through myspace.<br />
<p>Please feel free to visit us on the web at <a href="http://www.myspace.com/turkishdelighttheopera">www.myspace.com/turkishdelighttheopera</a></p>
<p>(the following text has been taken form the myspace page)</p>
<p>Turkish Delight the opera by Giles Howe and Katy Lipson is possibly the strangest thing you will have seen in a while. A musical-opera featuring a strong cast of only four singers, it tells the dramatic story of an ill-fated love affair and the effect it would have on it's participants. </p>
<p>Half-way between an opera and a musical but *nothing* like the operetta, it has created a genre all of it's own; taking the depth of drama and vocal agility of the opera and blending it with the accessibility of musical theatre to create it's own identity. The show is full of paradox - it is both hilariously funny and deeply tragic and will make you laugh despite being about insanity, rage, adultery, murder, suicide, extradition, and poisoning. </p>
<p>It follows the final chapters in Betsy Cohen's life, she is a mad Turkish Jewish woman who drives her husband literally to distraction. He has an affair with a British woman who'se gay flatmate is secretly in love with her and without giving too much away, it all ends in tears. And a giant gory bloodbath. With ghosts. It's great. </p>
<p>The show was started in 2004 by Katy Lipson and Giles Howe, and was originally going to be about a circus freak show! The dummy lyrics used when creating the tunes began to suggest an entirely different story, and four very distinct characters. We were very fortunate in having the incomparable voices of both Jane Garratt and Gareth Bretherton in the first production, for whom two of the four the characters were originally written. </p>
<p>Directed by Becky Parry and Giles Howe, the second production to be shown in London (starring Natasha Day, Sophie Juge, Gareth Bretherton, Daniel Lawrence) finished in August; it and was a resounding success. Extra songs were added, the storyline made more linear, new singers were involved, and a slicker story was told.</p>
<p>When writing it, after Katy and Giles had decided that the show was to be an opera and not a musical, it became clear that it should be an extreme tragedy, or ‘tragique’ - tragedy with its tongue in its cheek. The wife quickly became the most theatrical character, and thus the central focus of the show. Because her personality is so lunatic, the other three characters needed to be comparatively more pedestrian. </p>
<p>To keep them dramatic, they decided to distort the traditional theatrical archetypes. The Brit is the romantic lead male, but he is also a gay and murderous. The Turk is the ‘baddie’ but although he’s stringing along two women, it is for him that we feel most pity. Although everyone is a victim, they are all victims of their own circumstance and find themselves only ever in situations of their own making. </p>
<p>Many changes have been made since the shows inception. The storyline has been made more linear, new songs have been added and some taken away. </p>
<p>A church was majestic place to open the show’s first workshop, but an inappropriate place to accommodate much of it’s dark humour! The Black Cap with it’s long history of alternative entertainment (gallows, cabaret club, drag bar) was an ideal place to perform the second production. Turkish Delight has the privilege of being the first opera to be performed there. And as far as I can research, maybe even the first ever Turkish Jewish opera? (The two Turkish charachters are incidentally called Ohad Cohen and Betsy Cohen; Welsh people may find a pun in her name.) </p>
<p>A thirty minute showcase is being performed as part of the Stockholm pride festivities, and a further showcase is being planned for Stockholm in the Autumn. There are talks of performing it in www.my-tropical-islands.com also and further talks with film director Aleem Kahn, and even further talks of taking the show on a UK national tour next summer.<br />
</p>
<p>Please come and see the show when it is staged, it needs your support to succeed; it's groundbreaking and unforgettable - you will regret having missed it. (!) And you will love it!</p>"^^xsd:string |

well, I hope you enjoy my album, whoever you are. Be sure to drop me a comment or a message!"^^xsd:string |
| ?:Vulcan Mindmeld | "<p><font face="Arial">Vulcan Mindmeld was formed in May of 2006 by members of Thenoras, Clint Kliewer (originally guitar and vocals) and Corey Cook (bass). When their drummer stopped showing up, Clint switched to drums, and thus, Vulcan Mindmeld was born. The songs were short as hell, and generally changed greatly with each rehearsal, with the guys forgetting riffs and song orders completely. They had a handful of shows booked for August of that year, with no substantial set material, so they had to buckle down and write some stuff! They turned a few of their riffs into a random mish mash of songs ranging from slow and melodic to fast and chaotic. Chunks from completely opposite song ideas were often blended together into 2 minutes of madness. Meanwhile Clint would usually repeat one cryptic line sporatically throughout the song.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">By the time August rolled around, they had a half a dozen songs down, and Clint had a bit of method to his madness in the vocal/lyrical area. After the four August shows, Clint stripped down him drum set to just a snare, 2 bass drums, 2 cymbals and no toms. On the other hand, Corey added the vocal PA to his bass setup. With the vocals and only stringed instrument coming out of the same cabinet, it is nearly impossible to understand what Clint is yelling except at intervals when everything suddenly stops. But even then, there is delay on his voice which makes it very difficult to comprehend.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Personality wise the members are polar opposites. Corey is a huge risk taker, always getting himself into trouble and doing anything for a buck, whereas Clint is relatively reserved and stoic. On stage however, the roles are reversed, with Clint being the only one with a micophone; sometimes talking to the audience between songs in order to catch his breath. Corey is forbidden a microphone due to the fear that he’ll say something completely idiotic and get the group into trouble, though he can occasionally be heard yelling stuff at the end of the set.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">When it comes down to it, Vulcan Mindmeld is one weird group featuring 2 strange guys in a very awkward line-up.</font></p>"^^xsd:string |

| ?:Whispering Johnson | "<div class="news">
<p> Whispering Johnson plays "Roots" music.</p>
<p> It's just that their roots are a bit twisted. A few years ago, Whispering Johnson - brothers Jim and Kurt Fricke on guitar and drums, and Oren Sreebny on bass - were playing primarily R&B and blues covers, happy in having finally mastered the arcane art of the <a href="http://www.whisperingj.addr.com/lostblues.html">formless Delta blues</a>. Searching for a new challenge, Jim decided it was time to own up to his real roots - instrumental pop music of the '50s and '60s. See, Jim and Kurt grew up in Issaquah, not Clarksdale, Mississippi, and the records they heard around the house were Henry Mancini, Acker Bilk & Bent Fabric, Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass. For their next gig they played some old standards like "Alley Cat" and "Whipped Cream," and discovered that these songs touched their Northwest audience in ways that "Do the Do" and "I Can't Be Satisfied" couldn't approach. Jim promptly gave up his quest to write the great pop song and went back to his first love, writing little instrumental ditties.</p>
<p> The repertoire is new, but the group isn't. Jim left his lounge-funk band in 1976 to join Oren's granola-rock collective Wet Paint. The group played around the Northwest until 1979, when Jim and Oren quit to form Art Object, a punk/no-wave group whose 1980 EP is now a highly sought-after collector's item. In 1980 they drafted Kurt into their next outfit, Eddie & the Atlantics. The Atlantics were staples of the early-'80s Northwest club scene, and continued to perform when Jim and Oren quit in 1983 to pursue higher education and real careers. The trio got back together in 1993, and recorded a demo of this material, included here as <a href="http://www.whisperingj.addr.com/noise.html">What Happened to the Noise?</a> </p>
<p> In 2004 the trio went back into the studio to record <a href="http://www.whisperingj.addr.com/bdnums.html">The Birthday Numbers.</a> </p>
<p> Currently Jim is residing in Milwaukie, Wisconsin having been lured away from Seattle to be the head curatorial person at the upcoming Harley-Davidson Museum. </p>
<p> Oren and Kurt are still in Seattle, working on honing all of their wacky musical ideas and making sacrificial offerings to get Jim back in town.<br />

These incredibly talented musicians craft catchy songs that appeal to fans of both indie rock and Britpop. Though often compared to The Killers, The Strokes or Franz Ferdinand, White Light Riot blend originality with influences of the past. <br />

| ?:WhiteRoom | " Sunlight is made up of a full spectrum of colors. As it reflects off an object, certain shades of light are absorbed and others are reflected. These reflected colors form the images that reach our eyes. Unfiltererd White Light contains every image you have seen and will ever see.<br />
<br />
The Static you hear from a dead radio contains a full spectrum of sound all at equal volumes. It is said that within that invisible unfiltered noise, hidden in plain site, is every piece of music that will be, and ever has been written.<br />
<br />
By the time Alex Dray and Eddy Silva had founded WhiteRoom, they had spent much of their lives trying to absorb as much human static as the body can take before going crazy. Dangerously close to the breaking point, it was clear that the only stress relief was to decipher, filter and sculpt their own version of the Great Universal Static. The result is an absorbing new musical gestalt: a twisted and unconscious homage to paying attention and letting go.<br />
<br />
WhiteRoom easily establishes a firm foundation of Introspective Indie Rock while drifting fluidly between latin jazz, urban beats, haunting trip-hop and romantic cinema sound-scapes.<br />
<br />
In a rare show of creative unification, the group draws on everything and anything within reach, breathing musical life into laptop screens and synthesizers as easily as into acoustic guitars and upright pianos. With a firm grasp of classic song-writing at its base, each song is infused with a quiet sense of dream-like storytelling.<br />
<br />
Right now: WhiteRoom finds itself emerging as a clear voice to the guerilla DIY rise of next-generation composers. With their roots anchored healthily in the nurturing Montreal music scene, they are ready to branch out all over the networks of the world."^^xsd:string |

| ?:Zywiolak | "<p><span>The 'Zywiolak' project is the non-accidental effect of a meeting of two friends of music styles defined as <em>heavyfolk</em>, <em>biometal</em>, <em>folkmetal</em>, or <em>hardfolk</em>... In their home-bands, both have gone through fascination of Slavic and Celtic music as well as widely defined rock`n`roll. <br />
<br />
<strong>Robert Jaworski </strong>- the founder of Turek-Lodz based band 'ich troLe' - which has shaken the Polish folk scene within just a year since it`s foundation. He is fascinated with medieval music,old instruments, good rock n’roll and folk art. He tried, not very effectively to enliven his ideas for interpretation of Slavic music by playing in 'Warsaw Village Band'. Later, in his own band 'ich troLe', he managed to record his first Slavic composition called: 'Pochwist'. Early breakdown of the band disable him from realisation of more musical ideas. Some day his music trail leads him to akin soul - Robert Wasilewski. <br />
<br />
<strong>Robert Wasilewski</strong> - regular guitar-player of the legendary folk band 'Open Folk'. One of the last active folk musicians in Poland, who grew up listening to bands such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd or Black Sabbath and who draws inspirations from them. For a long time he planned to record his ideas of interpretation of 'folk demonology' Slavic music. Some of these compositions were already performed by 'Open Folk' the other soon will be played by Zywiolak. <br />
<br />
Two men of the same first name decide to join forces and create band that would be led by the motive of folk demonology. That notion is at least abstract for contemporary people in Poland and so far was not directly explored by any Polish folk group. The subject of pre-Christian beliefs, which became ground for many myths, is a rewarding artistic playground used all over the world not only by musicians. Interested in folk arts, archaeology and encouraged by kind treatment of folk music in media, they decided to once more enliven creatures from domestic legends and tales, which are inseparable parts of Slavic mythology. Creatures which were degraded by Christian tradition to role of devils and dark forces. Contemporary ethnographic and anthropologic research prove that pre-Christian cults were present in 18th century in Poland and their direct remains were visible even shortly before World War II. It’s folk art in which they still live and allude to the past. Painting Easter eggs, drowning Marzanna at the beginning of spring, avoiding greetings through doorsill or knocking in non-painted wood are the best examples of pagan habits that live in present times. All that folk background has become the core of inspirations for Zywiolak. <br />
<br />
Many days have passed since the memorable meeting in January 2005. The inspiration-exchanging duet 'Open troL' has been joined by a singer <strong>Izabela Byra</strong> (known from earlier experience in group 'Detonacja' and other non-folk bands) and <strong>Anna Piotrowska</strong> (very exuberant singer from bands such as 'Goscie z Nizin'). The rhythmic section was initially taken over by the drummer <strong>Michal 'ThOrn</strong>' from metal band 'Sphere' who was later exchanged with <strong>Maciej Labudzki</strong> (regular leader of the Otwock-based reggae team 'Mistik Madzonga'). Complicated and winding roads of all those music characters met one day in Warsaw and the effect of their cooperation gives Polish folk music a new perspective. Those persons are with Zywiolak until this day. <br />
<br />
Word <em>Zywiolak</em> (Were-Upheaval, Were-Element) has no direct meaning, it’s no name of any mythical character. It’s just a word-game which is common in contemporary Slavic-type literature. Such words are to be found in book of beasts of Polish issues of RPGs, in poetry of Boleslaw Lesmian , or in artworks of modern generation - author of many lyrics used by Zywiolak - Zgorzelec-based multiartist <strong>Grzegorz Zak</strong>. <br />
<br />
<em>The Band</em>:<br />
The name Zywiolak is to explicitly define energy of our music… 'Zywiolak' is the creation of our Slavic imagination… 'Zywiolak' is the music of elements… <br />
<br />
<em>The music</em>:<br />
The music of Zywiolak is a resultant of such music styles as: folk, punk, rockmetal, accoustic transtechno or drum`n`bass. It also takes an application from elements of: dub, chillout or ambient music. This is joined by the sounds of reconstructed antient instruments, recent time inventions and archaic or contenporary vocal techniques. <br />
<br />
We suggest: 'polish neoroots music' definition... ;) Let`s see how will it take a root...</span></p>"^^xsd:string |
