Hola

Part of the idea is to enable small-scale producers, copyright owners
of digital works (songs,tunes,videos,data) to publish and charge for
downloading. Music and tune wise we have sorted, still working on
video. As well as 'Raremusez Basement' (all tunes free or 55p) the
download area, there is a Members site allowing registered users to
upload mp3 files which can then be published at the basement. Can you
pass on details to whoever you think might be interested. Charges/costs
and how to are available to registered members. The site is built on
the Joomla open source framework so large scope for development and
hosting.

Cheers Coopz new tunes

sometimes, it is better to quote something brilliant rather than try and say something brilliant yourself.

♪♫ ...thank you for being a friend
traveled down the road and back again
your heart is true your a pal and a confidant

and if you threw a party
invited everyone you ever knew
you would see the biggest gift would be from me
and the card attached would say thank you for being a friend ...
♫♪

thanks again,
hi-five for lo-fi records

A bit of advance notice - MondayMonday proudly presents Rún and Steven Finn and more at The Wilmington Arms, Clerkenwell on Monday 7th December

Rún
collect and arrange old folk songs written in the ancient language of Erin. So far, thanks to Nora from Donegal, they have a nice wee collection of well-known ditties and are now adding to their repertoire with some unusual old forgotten songs from the province of Ulster. Rún are five fantastic lassies who perform four-part vocal arrangements of old Gaelic songs like ’An Cailín Rua’ (the red-haired girl), ’Casadh an tSúgain’ (twisting the hayrope) and ’Bo Na Leath Adhairce’ (the one-horned cow). Rún is the Gaelic word for ’secret, wish or love’ (cf. rune). See http://www.myspace.com/runceol ..

Steven Finn’s ears were filled with the music of Count Basie, Benny Goodman, Johnny Cash and old time country music. Aged 15 he began teaching himself the guitar, learning songs like Leadbelly’s ‘Bourgeois Blues’ and Charlie Daniels’ ‘The devil went down to Georgia’. On hearing Bob Dylan songs Finn started to write his own words and in doing so found a lifelong passion for Jazz and Folk Blues, a getaway car he could drive.
