"A Well, the really big changes were back in the early years of the mid-to-late sixties and the early seventies. The introduction of musical influences from many diverse world cultures and historical periods provided for a rapidly evolving and richly creative musical environment. Folk, Classical, Blues, Jazz and Asian motifs and forms broadened the scope of American-derived pop and rock. Tull were a part of that evolution. Since the mid-seventies, the development has been more technological rather than musical. Sampling, synthesis, sequencing and the personal home computer revolution have brought music making to the masses at an affordable price. But the music goes round in circles. Same old simple rhythms, melodies, harmonies and verse/chorus/bridge song structures. Nothing really changes: nothing is really new. But each new generation of young musicians rediscovers the wheel, The Beatles, sunglasses and stretch limousines. As long as they and their fans think it is new, why disappoint them? Give the kids a pot of paint and they will repaint their house. Same old bricks underneath. Techno and Rap? Just nursery rhymes with attitude. Nice idea but going round in very small circles." -Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull

my philosophy exactly ian...!

Most of my life is dedicated to music. I have been making midis since the dawn of ages. I like midi. I play the drums+percussion, guitar, bass, keyboard/piano, glass harmonica and sweep pad. My favorite though, i'd have to say is, crucifix lead. I aspire to learn all 127 instruments. I make cure midis because there arent too many XLNT ones out there, and ive learned a lot doing it. The cure is my life. I use cakewalk...and input all the notes with my mouse!!! GOTO the cure midi page now!!!
