I used to play the violin and the drums.

I muck around on keyboards, electric guitars and bongos as
well.

I was really good at Piano when I was 16. But I'm the kind
of of person that when something gets in my way it brings me
down so I quit.

Oh well. I guess in some way I'm making up for it.

I like fiddling with the distortion pedals on electric
guitars...they can make you seem like a good player even if
you're not!

Spoonz, dude, your homepage is awesome!

Did you make the ambient covers your self or what? They are
so good! You should own both Aphex SAW albums though :D

i searched for ambient words on google image searches
(sunset, beach, forest, etc) and photoshopped them up a
little bit, put the title in, burned them, and gave the cd's
to my dad. he likes them a lot. they're like health music
for him :) they help his headaches a lot, apparently.
Ambient 3, however, is a picture my dad took from the dock
at the cotage we stay in in ontario. it's my favourite place
in the world.

and how'd you know i don't own the SAW's? cuz i didn't put
any of it on the cd's?? i do plan on buying them both
(possibly tomorrow, if i get to go out) very soon :)

Just got given SAWII for Xmas...some of its very good, some
I'm still trying to digest.

SAW85-92 is great all the way through. I think your Dad
would love track 2,Tha.

Points: 3219 Status: Regular



i've actually never been able to get into either of the
SAW's. i'm guessing it's cuz the only times i've goten a
chance to listen to them is when they came on when i have my
mp3s on shuffle. so i never noticed them....i figure it'll
be a lot better for me to just buy them and listen,
especially now i got some new speakers for x-mas

Yeah...my next purchase is going to be

Future Sound Of London - Dead Cities

What's wrong with ya, man? You have no FSOL in your
collection! They're one of my absolute favourites. Dead
Cities is a good album to start with.

i've had some FSOL mp3's for ages. some of the first stuff
my bro ever downloaded. from the days of Napster and
such...i'll learn more about them, then we'll see :)

I'm on a real FSOL spurge at the moment.

Just bought the Isness. I reckon it's a brilliant album all
the way through, even though it's not really electronica.

awake

actually a recorder is a wind instrument. it looks kinda
like a smaller clarinet, but not really...at all, now that i
think about it >_<
