<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">The album, "The Message Stick" incorporates the talents of 25 incredibly gifted musicians and songwriters from across the globe that are true artists in their chosen disciplines! </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">David Pendragon an independent music producer/sound engineer living in Canberra created this album with the collaboration of musicians playing together over the Internet in their own home studios.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Musicians from as far away as Europe, U.S.A, Canada, U.K, India, Singapore, and various other Australian states showcase their incredible talents on this album.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">'Tribe World Ensemble' has evolved out of the Canberra Australia band called ‘Tribe’ who are well known for their album ‘The Gathering’ [New World Music] and the single ‘The Bushfire Song’</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> After the success of 'The Gathering', the idea of a follow up high-quality, well-recorded album of World music, played on real instruments rather than keyboard sounds, seemed a natural progression. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Early in 2006 Pendragon began to explore the Internet as a way to promote Tribe and 'The Gathering'.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Through his investigations Pendragon became inspired with the idea to use the Internet to produce, write and coordinate an entire album of quality music, with musicians who had never met and in many cases, had never even conversed with each other. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">This had never been done before. David realized that this for him was the true meaning of World Music.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Without the Internet as a tool it would never have been possible for them to work together due to the vast distances involved. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> Each of the musicians involved are artists well known in their own communities for their musical expertise on instruments such as: violin, cello, sitar, guitar, lap-slide guitar, drums and percussion, Native American flute and many others. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Pendragon enlisted all the musicians needed to create this album through Internet forums and independent music sites. He recorded 'back track' parts in his studio and made them available via the Internet to enable the contributing musicians to record their parts and then return them to the Canberra studio. David then mixed these parts into the main mix of the final final songs. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;"> </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Some song writing and creative development took place during late-night intercontinental or interstate 'voice-over-internet' conversations; humming a tune in Canberra to a sitar riff, or choosing a drum sound over the Skype phone, with the accompanying player somewhere on the other side of the world!</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">A documentary covering this incredible musical journey is currently being made.<br /><br />Combine all this with the talents of local and interstate musicians and vocalists, and you have a world-class album, pieced together in a very unusual way by the planets very first truly ‘World Music’ band. This is fast becoming the way musicians and artists will work together in the future. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">Following is the bands collective statement about “THE MESSAGE STICK”:</span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">“Message Sticks were used by the Australian Aboriginal people and other tribal cultures to send messages from one place or tribe to another. The messenger was a protected person and allowed free passage across traditional boundaries. We can learn many things from the Native Indigenous People from all areas of our World. </span></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial;">A common thread that runs throughout all cultures is a caring and unconditional love for the land that clothes and feeds us. </span></span></p>

Each song expresses a feeling about some aspect of human co-existence and relationship, with ourselves, with our Planet and with each other. We ask you to join with us.” </span></span></p>

hi...<br />my page is now just the 'stu' page... thanks admin.. <br />'the guaco project' page has been renamed, as it is basically impossible to work between two countries now... it's compliocated..!!<br /><br />i am gradually working on moving some of my own (dare i say solo?) stuff over here... and mingling it with some of the later guaco stuff. god knows... i may even have to upgrade... because i hate deleting stuff... but with my current productivity at one or two tunes every six months... this won't be necessary for a while eh..?<br /><br />just to let you know really..
cheers
