Bio
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..My Poison...... .. .. .. .. .. .. ......Add to My Profile.. | .. More Videos.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. The story of The Countdown began in 1998 when Tamar began writing and recording songs on her four-track. The songs were based on her rock musical entitled "Communicator" which loosely told the futuristic story of a girl looking for her missing husband within the world of "Communicator" ruled by computers and cyborgs. Since the rock opera frustrated the fuck out of her, she put it aside until one day when she played some of the songs for her future husband Steve. He thought the songs and the concept were cool, and wanted to try to re-record them and possible try to perform some of the songs live. Thus was born The Countdown as a band. Flash forward to 2009; The Countdown has become an underground sensation with some seriously loyal fans and a live show that, at any moment, can turn into a screaming match between the Tamar & Steve which has been described as a sort of a "Sonny & Cher on acid". The Countdown independently released one full length entitled "Communicator" and one EP that was self titled, both of which are out of print. But if you ask nicely, they might burn a copy for you. In 2004, The Countdown signed to Invisible Records and released the infamous "Scratch N Sniff" EP in 2004 and in 2008 Invisible released their LP entitled "The Story of a Long Slow Awaited Death Of A Band" which was happily their last release on Invisible Records. The title says it all. Now free to be the band without the confines of a label, The Countdown's newest album "Your Friends And Neighbors" is their most strange and bizarre album to date. "Your Friends And Neighbors" explores concepts of loneliness, secrets and obsessions. And asks the question, do you ever really know someone? You decide. Look for it on Itunes at the end of September 2009. www.thecountdown.net -

Hello My Dear!
I really hope you are fine... Since I had you in my friends list, I thought to invite you to my profile page, and I'd really love to hear your opinion about my new EP "Paradise Calls" which was released recently!
May I introduce myself? My artist and real name is Arman Behdad, and I create Ambient/Chillout music for the major label "Bonzaimusic Records", aswell as for a audience like you are maybe! *love*
And as créme de la créme I have posted my DJ Mix "Angel's Romance Vol. 1", which is full of melancholical and feelingful Downtempo Tracks and which got a lot of good feedback by the audience!
So, don't hesitate to visit my profile and to get in touch with me, I will reply to any comment or message for 100%!
I send warm greetings to you, may your personal angels' light surround you every day! Blessings and much love to you! <3
