Now what if any, interest is there in full blown songs based from these simple projects? You may find "bUbL" interesting as it is in the same constructed style. [audio page on my official site] The official Kevin Lux internet radio station has the Doepfer demonstrations on the playlist as well. [radio link on main site] I may be doing some more demonstrations for Doepfer, as I have a good working relationship with them at this time. It all revolves around the interest for such projects. Thank you for your interest and peace/prosperity to all. Keep spreading the word.

Blake in Toronto here. Another Off-Topic post to present to you the debut our band's brand new web-site... http://www.boredwithtoday.com/ Yes, thrill to the exciting new sound that is BWT on our new site, which features all the goodies (and more) you would come to expect, plus sound files to listen to four of our tunes. You can listen to nice quality Real Audio samples of our tunes, and then download the entire song, if you so choose, in the MP3 format. I tend to believe our songs would appeal to the sensibilities of people on this list. No jangly guitar/grunge songs here. We'll be releasing a new double A-sided Internet single in late April, followed by live shows in the late Spring, and an album in the late Summer. We are hoping to do this all independently from our home base in Toronto. We have been to enough music industry schmoosh fests to know being part of some big conglomerate that regards music PURELY as product to be moved is something in which we have no interest in participating. In that indie vein, we hope you all with support us, but we hope the quality of the music will be enough to earn your interest. If you have time to listen to the MP3s, feel free to let us know what you think. Thanks for listening. SINcerely, Blake in Toronto. * It's the music of BORED WITH TODAY at our brand new web-site : http://www.boredwithtoday.com/ # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info kraftwerk" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email kraftwerk@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # Other questions?
