Ok, so i was messing around for a couple of hours and came up with this piece. Nothing serious just having some fun playing and wanted to share with my friends. Definately needs a good mix so go easy on me.... spent an entire 2 hours on it....lol. Oh, one more thing, this 70 plus track maniac only used a grand total of 7 tracks. Better go to bed before I get any more bright ideas...hehe.
We go LIVE from 8PM GMT thats 3PM EST
Tonight is the last show in the flat but thats not going to change my plans for tonights show.
First we are going to be playing the current submissions for SONG OF THE YEAR: http://www.nexusradio.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?id=996
Currently in SOTY 2008 we have tracks from: Piano Forte, Corn and Beans, Psybot, Rapster + TLT50, Joel Irwin, Eternal Hobo, Vagrance, Ian Rushton, Bri-an, KOR, RSCain, Nigel Potter, Bill Wilcosky, That Never Was, The Empires, Smurf Beatz, Karco and Pulsate.
If you haven't yet submitted your track them plaese send an email to: competitions@nexusradio.co.uk with you TRACK, and in the main body of the email include: "GENRE" "ARTIST NAME" and "TUNE TITLE" - These are required. You may need to VERIFY your email address with SPAMARREST, its a spam filter I use on the web thats amazing, when some one emails me who isn't in my contact/allowed list and email gets sent back to them they have to click a link and put in a magic word and then they are verified. It doesn't take long, and means ur emails will get to me. I havent had any spam since I started using spam arrest, so i would advise using them if you have issues with spam
Also I got a couple of CD's from SELF TORT, the sexy aussie lawyer who really knows how to rock. We'll be displaying some of his works from him tonight, some of which may even be fresh listens for me, especially the "acoustic" CD he sent me.
We also have a new member, Amber McDaniel, and I have one of her tracks to play out for you all tonight, you can find her on myspace
We will obviously be playing our wide range of unsigned and signed music from all genres, be they trance, DnB or house, To rock metal and funk we have it ALL
We go LIVE from 8PM GMT thats 3PM EST - and hope to see you all there

<p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0">Thanks to everyone who came to the iMS Party tonight! We knew the time would be rough for many reasons but we still managed to get 25+ people in there at one time and probably 40-50 in and out through the show. A great time was had by all and we will be doing that again soon. It was just too much fun.</font></p><p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0">We have the left the iMS Radio station streaming all 41 Songs For Rob! The link is on the menu up top! There are some fantastic songs in there so have a listen!</font></p><p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0">Again thanks to everyone who showed up! It was great getting to know you a little bit better!</font></p><p><font color="#c0c0c0"> </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0">We also made an update to the Projam Artist Theme. Since the music page was a single page, this presented a load problem when artist had a lot of songs. We had a code change made to make page breaks at 15 songs.This should decrease the load time on those pages!</font><font color="#c0c0c0"> <br /></font></p><p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0"> </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#c0c0c0">The iMS Team!</font></p>
Just plucking notes and enjoying the sound of a guitar, that's where this came from.
I wanted put it under song genre 'Minimalist' but that wasn't available so I choose 'Meditative' instead.
<p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">Just a reminder to join us in <a href="/chat/" target="_blank">CHAT</a> tonight at 6PM EST for an iMS Party! The login is the same as your iMS login. Just a chance to get to know your fellow iMS Members and listen to some of the "Songs For Rob" songs that were submitted for Rob Grant while he was in the Hospital.</font> </p><p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">We hope to see everyone there for some conversation and great music!</font></p><p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">The iMS Crew!</font></p><p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">Oh yeah, if you are not familiar with iMS Radio, you can click the link in the menu or you can just click <a href="http://cast3.jbstream.net/tunein.php/dazed/tunein.pls">HERE</a>. You can use most any player to listen to the stream. iTunes, Winamp, WMP or Quicktime will prok. If you are having trouble, please post here and we will help. At 6:00EST we will change the stream to the SDongs For Rob. </font></p><p><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3" color="#999999">Just wanted to let everyone know I have been working on something new for the site. It is not done yet for a couple of reasons but it can be used now. I wanted to get a popup music player for external sites much in the way that soundclick does. </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#999999"> We have some new flash players being made and they should be done in a week or so. I also did not have time to do the browser resize on this so that will be happening as well. <br /><br />On the Projam song information link it currently has four different text areas on the left. I will most likely be dumping the first two. The last two have html and bbcode links depending on what the site you are puttung them on will allow. </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#999999">Here is an example <a href="http://imusicscene.com/index.php?t=audio_player&band_id=10&song_id=4513">Desperate Man - with Bri-an </a></font></p><p><font size="3" color="#999999">As you can see it pulls it up full screen at the moment in the same browser. That will be fixed soon as well as a better player! </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#999999">Hope this helps!</font></p><p><font size="3" color="#999999">Dazed </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">Update - I have made a few changes to these. I have updated the Cobalt and Sage themes with BBCode and HTML Codes you can use. They are located on your song page. Now, the one problem I have at the moment is some broken links due to apostrophes in the song titles. I am going to look for a fix but the easiest thing may be to just elimimate the apostrophes! </font></p><p><font size="3" color="#ff0000">All players will open in new windows now but I have not solved the issue of it opening in a small popup window from a link. We should also have the new flash players later in the week.</font></p>
It's Just that Way.......is a song about loved ones we've lost. A song I did 4 yrs ago. The recording is somewhat flawed. The drum loop is crappy.All other instrumentation is done with the Roland Fantom X6 keyboard and Roland XV-2020 sound module.!!!
We are blessed ,living in a day and age whenever the mood strikes , we can hit the record button
and save our feelings and emotions. Sometimes when you listen the next day,ya' "think", ahh ...maybe this is worth saving.......other times,,,,...........,Damn', what the f**k was I thinking LOL.!!
Regardless, we have the choice !!!!
I just wanted to thank everyone for their generous and kind words....This is a great community !!
Keep the music growing and flowing..........Respect and regards "wolf-wolf"
I've been wanting to ask you all what kind of phones you use and/or recommend? and here's 2 problems.. nobody is listening about the posting thing.. put up my NEW BLUE last night and it was gone from sight in a few minutes cause of the over-posters.. why don't guys **** off?.. lol.. just kiddin.. so we have to spam all our friends to let em know we got a new one? that sucks imho..
so anyway problem number 2.. after i post a new one i always listen in my 2 pairs of headphones.. obviously they both sound different but my new song is strange.. in the sennheisers (my main mixing phones) the lead guitar sounds balanced just fine.. but in the old sony CD380's the leads are FRIGGIN LOUD !!!! never had this problem on any other of my tunes.. just wondering if any of you hear it the 2nd way.. leads WAY too loud?.. no reviewer's have said that yet.. just wondering.. and I really would like to know about your taste in phones.. which have the best mid, highs and bass? lol.. I know this should have been a forum question but alot more read the blogs.. lol.. thanks and please check out new blue if you're so inclined.. cheers fam.. )
HI FRIENDS & FANS,
I POSTED A BLOG ASKING FOR YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT A FEW DAYS AGO.
WELL, IT`S THE 2ND TIME IN 4 MONTHS THAT I`VE BEEN IN THE SEMI-FINALS AT OURSTAGE.COM, AND LOST, (NOT BECAUSE OF THE SONG) BECAUSE OF NOT HAVING ENOUGH VOTES FROM MY FRIENDS AND FANS.
I WAS BEATEN BY A GIRL THAT LOOKED LIKE A PROM QUEEN, THAT OBVIOUSLY HAD 100`S OF FRIENDS VOTING FOR HER. LOL
THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN, IF I DON`T GET MORE SUPPORT.
MY SONGS ARE GOOD ENOUGH TO GET INTO THE SEMI-FINALS, BUT THEN IT BECOMES A POPULARITY CONTEST, AND THE ARTIST WITH THE MOST FRIENDS AND FANS VOTING FOR THEM WINS.
ANYWAY, I APPRECIATE THOSE OF YOU THAT TOOK THE TIME, AND DID VOTE, AND I HOPE MORE OF YOU WILL JOIN IN AND HELP OUT THE NEXT TIME, BECAUSE IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. MY SONGS ARE VERY POPULAR ON OURSTAGE.COM., AND IT COULD HAPPEN THAT I`LL BE IN THE SEMI-FINALS AGAIN AT THE END OF APRIL, OR MAY.
BUT I NEED YOUR SUPPORT TO WIN.
ONCE AGAIN, A BIG THANKS TO ALL THAT SUPPORTED ME AND VOTED.
PEACE,
DICARLO
