We decided that we should try something very different from our other collaborations.

So please – send us your comments on this upload.

Neil did the mastering job, under my view though.

It is very avant garde, in the style of John Cage.

cheers

Hi there, no it's my mistake, i was rushing to go out this morning.

I posted something like this :

"
Hey, a silent track, very avant-garde indeed.
Are you planning a LP ?

"

then i explained that the track was silent. then i wanted to edit the post to add smileys and deleted by mistake but had to go so couldn't correct it

Something very strange is happening here, I can load it, but it doesn't play... I'm using Windows Media Player, which works very well for streaming... What is going on?

Hmmm, a silent piece with a subtle hookline.
I liked it, and when I want to relax I play it at full volume.

The point of the tune( for me) is this:

The music is coming from your fingers typing your replies on your keyboards.

I am enjoying this immensely

"Uses: Guiness Fingers of a Bishop Whiskys Cubase Pulsar stuff "

what, no comments on our reviews, fellas?

Apologies for absence Wayne and others.
Chris has been away to a party.
For me it has been a weekend of gale force winds and local powercuts, plus clearing up after the gales.
Also, I'm preparing for my appearance in court tomorrow morning from when I was in an accident on my mountain bike, so I haven't been in the right mood (wound up like a spring even though I'm the injured party)

So, I haven't even downloaded it myself yet.

Regarding Beagle2:
Do you mean that there is nothing there or do you mean that there is something there but you can't hear it?

Just to put the record straight by the way, Bishops Finger is an English beer and is in no way related to New Hampshire priests - don't jump to conclusions.
The only Bishops Finger I have ever had is the beer variety and it only makes your head sore

there is something there, but zoom in on it in an audio editor and it's a 2.72mb file of zeros

wow, weather! I cannot remember the last time it rained here in Perth! But at least we haven't had 2 weeks of >40Celsius this summer!

good luck tomorrow Neil.

sorry neil, didn't have time to run it through an oscilloscope yet, neither through my beagle-o-rama convertor.

Nestor · Post by **Nestor** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 3:42 pm

Well, I have never heard the song yet...

BTW: The song loads, but cannot be heard, or perhaps there is nothing on it... I don't know, it must be a mistake.

ChrisWerner · Post by **ChrisWerner** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 4:50 pm

I checked the file and everything is correct.
Sorry Nestor, Wayne but I can´t figure out your problem.
We tried to produce an absolute authentic track for Beagle2 and so we did.

Post by **hubird** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 9:58 pm
