Other great things on the net...
UtrophiaCollective of musical and visual artists releasing great music and putting on fantastic evenings for the world to enjoy.
I've become more and more involved in the network over the last few years, and now source artists and events ideas,
alongside some very inspired and wonderful people for the project space and the world itself.
BandizmoA very decent music sharing website, where artists can share their their work.
It's becoming very popular, and the player on my page now actually gets more plays than on my myspace.
The player sounds WAY better than myspace too, it doesn't re-encode your MP3s to a lesser quality like it does on myspace,
so all that work you put into getting a glossy cymbal sound doesn't go to waste.
Yay! Go there now!
Creot RadioAn awesome fortnightly podcast hosted by an international collective of independent artists.
Seriously the best music podcast on the net.
I've hosted a bunch of shows throughout the four seasons so far, you can find them if you look!
Creot RecordsA collective of musicians and home recordists running a co-op record label.
All of my releases are in association with this fine bunch of guys, of which I'm one!
Naciente QuartetSome really decent live instrumental music from some of the founders of the Utrophia network.
ReflectiostackCanadian duo, violin/sampler and guitar/vocals with a great supporting cast. Great tunes and damn good folks to boot.
La OtracinaHeavy as hell psychedelic music from Brooklyn, New York.
Bassist Evan is a dear friend who put me up for several days during my ten-day trip over there at the end of 2007.
His band's music rules, really damn fine old-school space metal.
UbertarMulti instrumentalist and composer Paul Rubenstein, maker of his own fantastic instruments.
Also the best music tutor a kid could ask for.
Shirley RollsJust plain fantastic music in a wealth of styles, from Garage Rock to big horn soundtracks - all with that great tape sound.
AlpTiny Swedish man playing acoustic songs that will warm or break your heart.
He actually called me on the 'Tiny' comment, but that's the sort of thing you come across when you google yourself dude. Hahaha..
Really lovely music and an awesome all-round musician to boot.
InverseroomAll-round solid guy and author, JR Lennon's musical alter-ego.
Not just great music but great writing and interesting articles on photo-theremins and musical DIY projects too.
Shadow Orchestra
Five-piece group featuring violin, harp, cello, guitar and drums,
all with an electronic edge.
I was a member of the group for a few weeks in 2006, playing glockenspiel, clarinet and percussion.
Tape Op
Sure, it's not as much fun as it used to be but still a great resource for recording tips and problem-solving.
Gtr OblqInformation and discussion on stringed instruments, microtonal music and a whole bunch more.
Good guys.
