   About The Intergalactic Orangutan
I am The Tang, The Intergallactic Urangutang, or The Intergalactic Orangutan (after about four or five years I got around to spelling it correctly, nobody else could get the spelling right either whenever I gigged) I am currently making musical instruments and playing them and recording the output. Anything musically interesting is my main obsession, I have many more. Music is my main coping strategy. These are the sounds from the eye of a storm. Increase the peace brothers and sisters.

On this freezin' Glesgae mornin' with drafts blowing round my trotters I clicked a link and there was the intergallactic ones weary world blues (sometimes I feel like that myself). Great stuff man, and I dig that voice. I certainly won't let Sarah piglet play with dub but I'm afraid I'm too late tae stop the eldest as he sits in his boudoir with his fancy bong. Good tae hear yer grooveology and beatsmithery once again. PIG is on yer side man, can't wait for the album. Stay forever free, X ;@)

How ye doin' man? cheers for checkin' out my new stuff. It's great tae get them finished because my auld brainbox is a hundred million miles ahead of my physical realisations. Always so much tae do and .......... ye know what I mean. I've got tae head off noew and get Sarah from skool and I'm off tae witness PIL performing Metal Box tonight, I just hope he pulls it off, he's got himself some right dodgy musicians playin' with him over the years. I'll enjoy gettin' out for some loud music anyway. I'll drop by yer page tomorrow and have a listen (if my earoscopes are still in working order) tae the new tunes. Have a good Friday brother and keep on keepin' on. Willy thee PIG, X ;@)

About this page:
I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D

yes the molding flutes sound good. the bore is circular in cross section. four pieces of molding glued together make a flute, square outside but circular or cylinder inside. i tried playing one such flute after return from hospital today.Playing using five fingers is better than none.

hey there. i will admit your music is definitely out there and very experimental. something you don't hear everyday, which is a good thing because i'm tired of hearing the same old shit over and over again. i hope to hear more and it's even more impressive that you are pretty much a one man band, am i right?

keep in touch.
