And do you know The Advantage? A lot of their stuff pretty eh, but I do particularly enjoy their (only slightly up-tempo) take on the labyrinth music from the original Legend of Zelda ("Zelda: Fortress") |

I wonder if their version of "Fortress" is the one I have kicking around on an old MP3 CDR? Guitar, bass, and steady drums with jungle outbursts? Twice through the head (maybe 3x)? |

No jungle beats that I can recall, but it's a keeper. Maybe I'll put it on the next Waldo CD. (I don't want Waldo to die.) |

Morgan played sax, Scott played guitar(s), I played and sequenced everything else -- bass, recorders, upright piano, Kurzweil. (We tried doing a vocal track for the "choir aahs", but it...didn't go so well.) And the inspiration? Sheer love of it, I guess, and that shard-in-your-heart feeling of loss and longing that it evokes -- in me, anyway. Or, wait, do you mean what's it from? The SNES game Secret of Mana, which has some of the greatest game music ever. |

Never tried it out before, but yes indeed, it must surely have some bomb tracks. Speaking of which, once your thesis is safely set to rights, let's make a rap track. Just for kicks. Also, ROL should be back on its feet whenever the servers do whatever it is that they do. The damage is $8.50 all around. |

That and Chrono Trigger, you can just get lost in 'em -- it's like stepping into another world, somehow. I read it right the first time, but as I reopened this set of comments I misread the next line of your post as "let's make a rap track. Just for kids." Which would be rather different! Still waiting for ROL to come back. To quote David Gilmour's current tour setlist, wots...uh the deal? |

I paid acenet for the space again, and 123reg for the .co.uk, and waited for the webmail to start working and the site to do its thing again. It's forwarding to the .com again as it should, but the .com is still showing some fake site. Apparently it expired as well, and I never received notice to that effect (the registrar changed its name, though that shouldn't have anything to do with anything else). So I tried to log in and take care of that, too, and it tells me it's expired and I can't log in. So I thought, well, we'll just buy it again, but it doesn't look like it's available, either. How does that work? Any ideas re. where to go from here? If nothing else, we ought to be able to use the space, and have the .co.uk point to IT rather than re-directing to the .com URL that seems in limbo at the moment. Thoughts? |
