Right now the weather is too sunny and paradisico for me to really do any music work. I rather get a sun-tan than a screen-tan. Today I bought a set of Nylon strings for that special someone. The acne-kid behind the counter looked like he'd been recently lobotimized. Come ON! When I was a kid I used to look up to guys working in music stores. They looked so cool in their black T-shirts and seemed to know just about everything about Amps, electric guitars and even...gulp SYNTHESIZERS! (Like switching them on and plugging in a pair of headphones so I could have a try, for instance). Times change apparantly, 'cause acne-kid here prolly couldn't tell a pick from a kick hehe. So where are we Mr Lang? Tried to use the trad-phone but the number seems to be disconnected. <--!insert K-werk tune here--!> BAAAZOOODANGDANGDANGFROOOK!

OK, we are back on air, back on track, in da house, whatever. I have sent a CD to Johan with my (admittedly not perfect) version of faith. I also provided the samples upon wich "codeine" is based. Made them mono, since they were sampled that way for the first time (stereo-samplers wern't that common back then (oh my, here I got that Monthy python feeling: "We lived in a shoe-box on the motor-way"!)). Maybe we should bit-crush them into 12-bit, 30 Khz too, for that authentic Prophet 2002 sound. Now I wonder if J. has gotten his gear up? Some special someone;-) is interested in designing the forthcoming web page, Yey=o) Why can't life always be like this?/OK now kids, don't shoot wine...//TISA
