Hey!

I love your music, ever since I've been on Myspace, I've taken more interest in electronica because of bands like you. I'd never heard your music before, but it's pretty awesome. There are tons of great bands out there trying to make a name for themselves, and I think you're doing a great job of that. Your music is calm and relaxing, and that's great because sometimes people need a change of pace. Keep up the great work!

Hi!!!^,~

How are you???

Thanks for request^,~

[...When to the session of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste:
Then can I drown an eye, unused to flow,
For precious friends hid in death¹s dateless night,
And weep afresh love's long since cancelled woe,
And moan the expense of many a vanish¹d sight:
Then can I grieve at grievances foregone,
And heavily from woe to woe tell o'er
The sad account of fore-bemoaned moan,
Which I new pay as if not paid before.
But if the while I think on thee, dear friend,
All losses are restored and sorrows end.
-William Shakespeare -]


Wishing you all the best ,good luck & success^-^!!!


Best wishes & rock on[Nothing makes the earth so spacious as to have friends at a distance] !!!
