Responsible for the evolution of musical genres

October 11, 2007

"Take a rock drum-kit, latin percussion and guitars, and 
reggae-style bass, and you've got a surprisingly unique and 
fresh sound that is Ian. 
 
Ian is exactly what music needs more of. This is his sound, 
and I can't think of many that are remotely similar. There 
are so many flavors of sound blended together, and they 
somehow fit together quite naturally. It's something you 
can dance to, and it's something you can relax to. Artists 
like this are responsible for the evolution of musical 
genres, and I've got nothing but appreciation for this. 
 
Definitely give it a listen." --- Blips and Bleeps  
 
We don't do what we do for recognition, but when someone 
appreciates what we're doing it sure does feel good.

Exciting stuff is happening on our Myspace page. Check it

OK! OK! If you must know, I'll tell you the exciting news  
about our Myspace page: 
 
1) There is a free download of a rare song by NYC 
Rock/Reggae group AnaVanA called "Now is the Time". It was 
never commercially released and a demo version is the only 
trace of this song on the planet. You can download it 
from our Myspace page for free.  
 
2) We have made over 20 AnaVanA songs available for 
individual download, including 2 songs from AnaVanA's 
unreleased CD "Face the Day". The 2 unreleased tracks we 
got our paws on are "Face the Day" and "Dance Around".  
 
3) Long before there was AnaVanA, there was Urban Blues 
Revival, and 3 rare songs by them are also available for 
download. We challenge you to find those songs for download 
anywhere else. Well, I'll save you the time, they aren't 
available anywhere else. 
 
Alright, we've gone on long enough.  
Below are a couple of good free sites to upload your music

archived on the mailing list page on our site. 
 
There are a couple of neat projects in the works, and we 
can't wait to share them with you.
