Hi *BW*,

Hahaha, well, I couldn't be bothered as much. At least, not as much as
you. That's where you are mistaken. You have posted on many threads trying
to spread your message and spread the good gospel about local music
through comparing local musicians with foreign ones. Different markets,
different circumstances, different strategies. Wouldn't you agree?

Ditto. Strangely, we had acts requesting for projection screens, etc. to
allow them to do visual jamming as they play. And the effect is much
better. Busking or full-on set, as long as they achieve what they want to
set out, it's all good.

Yup, definitely, the whole point about the e-mail so far has been to ask
you if you were able to pass me or tell me more about your music before we
got side-tracked. If possible, I'd like to have a listen to your music, be
it the format you have it in, mp3 or CD-R.
In case you are not aware of what we do, we run an online web-zine,
pertaining to music in general with a strong focus in Singaporean music.
If you would like to help youself like the other acts we have featured so
far, let us know.
Thanks!
