Hi Nigel,
Haven't seen you on here much lately either!

I did make a post about a month ago, saying I wasn't too keen on
posting music here these days, as I thought the list was more for
discussing hardware/software issues, especially when you consider there
is:
http://lam.fugal.net/
for pure linux compositions.

There is also:
http://www.muzic.com/
which is a very busy general mp3 site (mostly modern stuff)

Musicians sites:
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=14
and:
http://www.kara-moon.com/index.php?modid=mod06&l_submenu_id=m001_06_01
have some really good material too. They also both run monthly music
competitions. KVR has a *very* fast 'churn'. Kara-Moon is an extremely
friendly site.

All of these sites promote Creative Commons licensing, and I've posted
a lot of my stuff on them.

I am of course always delighted when anyone visits my own website (even
though it *really* needs modernising). I have a new 'Collaborations'
section.

Having said all that, there is one tune I have put on my site although
it's not listed, that is a very sad and poignant song. I managed to find
someone to collaborate with who has exactly the right voice for it - he
is not really a singer, which actually adds to the emotiveness.

The entire composition and recording took about 10 days from start to
finish, which is amazingly fast by my standards. I wrote the song, and
performed the synth parts, James (offthewall) sang and played bass.

Breaking my own rules, if anyone wants to listen it is at:

or
