This Unique Museum is the brainchild of Ben Fitton, mixing the gentle pace of low-fi indie rock with the ambient sound of shoe gazing dream pop.
Ben Fitton has released two albums under the moniker of This Unique Museum and a handful of EPs, with the former being recorded as Chapters and later as Installments.
The Chapters work on the premise that entire recording sessions are made available to the listener for free for a limited time allowing them to provide feedback as to the albums contents. This frees the artist from their own subjection and places the recording in the hands of an audience who has no current emotional or nostalgic attachment to the music. This way the selection process for the album can be viewed and chosen without interruption or bias and then hopefully the listener can feel like they have created a body of work along with the artist.
Although originally a Chapter was to be completed every season, an electrical fire damaged much of the recording equipment so it was thought best to hold off capturing the sessions for the time being and work on the songs in more depth while more equipment was purchased.
In stark contrast, the Installments feature a small number of tracks per release in which a handful of songs are picked by artists that Ben finds inspiring and reinterprets them by using the skeletal structure and building an alternative from the pieces left behind.
As a thank you to fans, the single The Architect Of… (The Ghost In The Machine) is to be released, available only through Myspace™, issued to all friends of the bands profile on their Birthday.
"Lost At Sea: Out-Takes From The Great Lake" is scheduled for release on 8th September 2008 with "Chapter Two: Caught Between The Devil & The Deep Blue Sea" currently being written and will be recorded later this year with a release date scheduled for Spring 2009.

so sorry about that I must have told you the wrong one.
That's funny because I tried that one a while ago too, the one I gave you, and it made me all crazy because they sucked real bad, and they didn't pay too good either they offered like contests and stuff instead of cash.
But anyways, the correct site is
M E D I A 4 5 6 . COM
it's the one I am cashing $750 a week with putting in about 23 hours a week, sometimes up to like 30 hours if I'm bored.
After you get your membership make sure you register with with the companies on page one in the members section because they are the ones that pay the most, I got $50 for one that took me 45 minutes today. You'll see what I'm talking about when you start.
Anna started taking them too and she's making $850 a week, it's making me so mad because I'm the one that showed her which one to sign up with now she's making more than me.
Alright well me and Paul are getting ready to leave, just give me a call or I'll see you on here and let me know if you have any problems with your membership. TTYS hun
"Welcome back my friend To a Christmas that never ends We're so glad you could attend Come inside, come inside"
You ROCK!
"The Season" is nearly upon us. When you're in the mood to blast some techno Sugar Plum Fairy, or chill out to Arabian Dance, you know where to find it!
Do you think you could do me a favor? My friend Brian has entered a competition on MySpace for his short film. Its about a kid whose parents are in the porn industry. Its hilarious. It would mean a ton to mean if you checked out the movie and gave it a thumbs up booyah in the box below the video.

You're welcome! Things are ok, mostly attempting to clear junk out of Sian's old room (which is now my room). Chances are that some of your old things that you haven't seen in years are there because she swears most of the stuff in there isn't hers :-/ Anyway, hope you're ok too and all that.

honies don't tell the truth about what they think.
I am telling you this because it is the honest truth, look I should know, they say that it is all in the way you use it, not how big it is, well I got news for you all, that is pure lies.
I know from personal experience, I will tell you about a secret that renault has made me promise to never ever tell anyone, but since he has not called me in three weeks after standing me up, I am going to break the promise and tell you how he went from having a tiny wang and in 4 months he is now about nine inches and get this, it is still getting bigger. He has been secretly taking grow jells from this site, copy and paste the address into your browser to see them.ABARDE.COM
I found out when I was at his house, three fridays ago, we were getting ready to go to the mall, so while he was in the shower, I went in his room, sneeked under his bed and found a box with jell bottles in it, there was like 9 full bottles and 4 empty ones, all ordered from ABARDE.COM I was laughing at first but then when he came in the room and caught me looking at them, he freaked out and made me sware to not ever tell anyone about them, especially girls from school or work that he has been dating for the past while, now that I think of it, he has been rather busy with all the popular girls around here, when just last year he was the shyest when it came to girls.
I just never put two and two together until he explained it all to me, I did see his package and yes, it is huge, pronostar huge, the thickest and longest one I ever seen.
I know this sounds really shallow, but I am considering ordering 6 bottles from the website at ABARDE.COM for you know who.. he does not have a myspace account, so he is not gonna see this. They guarentee that the jells will work on any man, or they give you your money back, living proof that they do work on any guy, seeing is believing.ABARDE.COM
