Look, just ditch your preconceived notions.
This isn't music that is trying to make you hear it, or trying to meet you on the planes of reality you know thus far, or that will fit into what you listen to already, or the scene you hang in (this feeling is more than just today and our ways).
This isn't just some band; this is a concept (you will.not. ever. be happy without feeling sad. or vice versa. life is connected, and music doesn't have to just distract you from that).
This is music that requires you to listen. These are sonic frequencies trying to feel with you. These are vocal thoughts trying to resonate with you. These are rhthms and grooves trying to show you that dancing is not just something you do to get laid.
This *IS* about experimenting with frequencies, movements and the human condition.

Sound is spiritual. Movement is spiritual. Let's feel. And move. With reckless abandon.
============ A Note from Mr Nowhere =============
There are free downloads on the website (happyhumans.org), along with pictures from the Human Canvas Project (video soon). As well, everything can always be streamed for free from said website.
This is a DIY project which needs the help of everyone who enjoys these auditory emissions. Help spread the word, tell your friends it's super neato keen, tell bloggers to blog about it, beg your radio/web stations to play it, talk about it online and hey, if you've got a few bucks to throw towards the cause, EVERY BIT REALLY HELPS... A snocap store (updated with lots of new stuff shortly) is located both on the myspace and happyhumans.org. The Human Canvas Project DVD is also coming out probably in December... PLEASE COME BUY SOME STUFF!

Sad Music for Happy Humans's Friend Space (Top 32)
Hello. Thanks for add & comment. Nice tracks on your page! Represent a new album ARX KAELI - Highway. 2009. Cd packed in wooden box with laser engraving, covered a grey varnish. Time 62 min. Best Regards.
Twas splendid to hear and meet you as well! Really nice music and would love to catch you again. I guess we'll miss eachother's shows tomorrow with our supersonic crisscross action! The way of the sound weavers..
Good to see you playing shows!! We are going to try and make it tonight, though it is our 2 yr anniversary! So I can't guarantee. Either way have good show! I'm looking to book shows for "dropa" november and beyond if you'd like to set something up together that would be sweet.
