Oh - don't think I got or responded to that e-mail, but just checked and found the Daedalus CD buried amidst a pile of unopened mail!

Thanks

Shawn - was that the one where Ghost Circus - Cycles was one of the choices? Think that was the last one I got?

Not received yet, no. Maybe it'll be like last month when it was pretty late in February.

On Joel's show recently they played some more John Huldt, and I'm going to think seriously about looking into that a bit more, as on a number of occasions I've been listening to a track and through 'That's good', then to discover it was John Huldt....

I have and like both the Zen Rock & Roll and the Cross CDs.  I'm not certain if the Tadeshi Goto is going to be to my tastes or not, but I'm going to give it a go.

This month's choice was between:

Tadeshi Goto - Innervisions
 
Zen Rock & Roll - End of the Age

Cross - Playgrounds

I plumped for Cross as it seemed closest to my taste from the reviews in the Archives. Looking forward to it!

So I signed up to this as well.
When do you get the email telling you what cd you're getting?

So far I am 2 for 2 also.  I absolutely loved the Presto Ballet CD and last month I got a Brother Ape CD which is very good.  This month I am going with the Chain DVD.  I had previously downloaded Chain.exe so that is one reason I didn't go with that one last month.  I really like what I have heard from Henning Pauly though.

Guys - I subscribed, and just to let you know that for the last 2 months at least Shawn has offered 2 alternatives to the recommended selection so there is a small element of choice, rather than just a random allocation of a CD.

Chain.exe (by Chain) for me last month...liked it, so I'm going for them again this month!

I actually have been spending more time around here lately, I'm active on a few different threads right now, but as you can see from all our recent announcements (and more to come in the next week), it has been busy as hell around here lately.  I'm actually getting interviewed in a couple hours by a guy for his MBA on how to run an  indie label in the current business climate, I'm quite honored about that one.

Interesting program, Shawn, I'll be sure to check it out.

Wanted to reiterate again that mindawn is my ideal music service by offering FLAC downloads, and I'm happy to see you guys are getting new artists in all the time, I'm particularly pleased about Moonjune records coming on board.  Keep up the good work!  Thumbs%20Up

We've got audio samples of everything on our site, and if you go to www.mindawn.com our digital download site, you can listen to any song in full up to 3 times, so you can easily check it out.

Yes, Amaran's Plight is a fantastic album, I was very honored to get to play on it myself as these are some of my favorite musicians, it also led to Nick coming to me with his Lamb project, and other upcoming collaborations.
