Bobby Wayne (Guitars-Oregon), Marc Meistner (Drums-Germany) and Myself (Keyboards-Los Angeles) have been working on a collaboration project together for over a year now and are getting close to releasing our first cd. We've never met except through emails and sending music tracks back and forth between each other...to do this we all decided on common software (Cubase) and set up an ftp site to upload and download files. The process has been interesting and we have come up with some great music together. We have never met personally and we all found each other through our music on Soundclick... The music is a fusion of Jazz, Rock, R&B, with elements of Middle Eastern, Asian, and Urban sounds. If you want to hear a sample of what we're doing - email me at mellosonic@gmx.com and I'll send you a ;;link to download a preview....Stay Tuned! Mello

Hi All - I'm working on a free Operating System that comes with everything you need to produce multimedia....It's almost like using windows xp or Mac and it will automatically setup your net connections...it's based on slackware linux but it's user friendly and FREE.. - It boots and works from the cd (no installation necessary) and works on most PC's... Just burn the ISO(cd image) to a CD and boot it up (your computer has to be set to boot from the CD) Try it out - you'll find out how up to date Linux is and it may open up some new worlds to you Here's a list of some of the programs: Audio: Audacity - Audio Processor Seq24 - Midi Sequencer Alsa - Sound mixer Qjackctrl - Jack audio server LMMS - Linux Miultimedia Studio Muse - Audio/midi DAW Hydrogen - Drum Sequencer MhWavedit - Wave Editor ZynAddSubFX - Software Synthesizer Video: Cinellera - Video Workstation AvidDemux - Video Editor WxCam - Web Cam Utility CD/DVD: Nero Linux - CD/DVD burner - utility K9copy - dvd copier K3b - CD/DVD burning KAudio - Audio CD ripper Graphix: Gimp - Like Photoshop Inkscape - Image Manipulation DigiKam - works with Digital Cameras Camorama - Photo Editing Kolour Paint - Paint Program Show Foto - Image Viewer Download here 510megs - http://www.mellosonic.com/download/mmslax.iso try it out - let me know what you think - peace/mello

hi Friends, 2009 is here, George Bush is gone! That alone is giving me inspiration for the coming year...Whatever happens will happen but at least we won't have a puppet taking care of business....Predictions: Haliburton will be put under investigation and Dick Cheney will be indited on misuse of government funds...Condeleeza Rice will give up politics and become a concert pianist...Gay marriage will become legal and Condeleeza will come out of the closet and marry her longtime girlfriend...George Bush will start a comedy act and become wildly successful. Barack Obama will manage to turn around the economy by taking over the banking system and and giving 350 billion to american citizens (1000$ each adult citizen). Music will take a new turn due to virtual 9.1 super psychoacoustic concert sound... Music acts will start performing in new types of concert halls where a new feel good air conditioner is used and a pharmaceutical equivalent to ecstasy (though legal) is added to the air supply...This will be declared illegal after all the audiences quit their jobs and become artists and advertising executives...Stem cell research will resume and 50% of diseases will be cured in the 1st year...Aids will be a thing of the past after a new venereal disease starts attacking men who use penis enlargement pills and viagra at the same time...White collar criminals who defraud consumers (ie: Enron, Madoff, Etc..) will be sent to Guantanamo Bay and be the new roommates for terrorists already there... The republican party will become the new minority and will be outlawed by the end of the year... All political republicans will move to Texas and secede from the United States...California will also secede become a new country...President Schwarzenegger will excuse the state debt and cut taxes as well as release all drug offenders from jails. California will start a new cottage industry by legalizing hemp and opening state controlled rehab centers..Cars will run on hemp oil, paper and clothes made from hemp will dominate US markets as well as overseas. New millionaires from India will move to New Mexico and start a new American Bollywood in Albuquerque which will also become a hub for American Hotel Companies...Global warming turns out to be a great thing and Greenland turns out to be the new party capitol of the world...Israel moves to Southern Greenland and Palestinians try to take over Egypt by digging tunnels under Cairo and filling them with goats and refusing to clean the goat poop...New religions take hold as old religions turn into new ones, spirituality suffers... Overpopulation takes over as the latest world problem and replaces global warming as the new apocalypse... and the list goes on and on and on...last but not least: a man helps another man for no reason and a new fad is begun...peace/mello Tags: 2009, for, predictions
