MELODIC ENERGY COMMISSION was formed many centuries ago to investigate and experiment with the energy caused by melodies, portrayed through sound patterns often classified as music.
Their original sound patterns were inscribed into clay cylinders and later, vinyl platters then distributed throughout the galaxies. Eventually, the investigations expanded to rhythmic and atonal pattern interpretation. So, more recordings have been created during these investigations and began appearing around planet earth.
On their recent plastic discs the Commissioners have placed advanced communications, disguised as songs and elaborate soundscapes.

Rhombus began to take shape in a Chicagoland high school in 1997. Aaron and Brad proceeded to Illinois State University in 1998, where they met Matt and formed Ill Gotten Buty. Matt soon left for Columbia College Chicago. Aaron and Brad remained at ISU to study music and Spanish. Post-graduation, Aaron and Brad became local Chicago mainstays while they played in two local bands. In 2005, Aaron, Brad, Fritz, and Matt would form would become the 4-sided shape that we call Rhombus. When Brandon Warrick joined the band in 2007, their geometric namesake was finally complete. Rhombus is ready to rock! So show up to dance, stay in a Trance, and go home Rhombus-enhanced!!!

Shindai Lovers was given birth to in 2007 when four Los Angeles musicians came together to fill the gaping void that slowly developed year by year in the world of rock and roll. Bringing back the experience and feeling of taking part in a great musical journey, Shindai Lovers inundates the stage with unparalleled excitement not seen in the rock music scene in nearly two decades.

Innerji Studios is a project of Andrea Forest based in Dallas, Tx. The material took shape in the fall and winter of 2008 and shortly after, Andrea was established and proceeding with recording new songs and unfolding older material for future release.

The music is melodic, atmospheric and often ambient and carries elements of jazz, blues and hip hop. You'll hear haunting piano partitions and smoky string/pad/voice combinations...sewn together with a mindfulness of the rhythms of breath and heartbeat.

With 20 something years of combined study in bodywork, the healing arts and cymatics, Andrea's music has become a conscious reflection of her understanding of the way sound waves affect the human body.

Having completed the recording and mixing of the album "Awaken Dance, " Andrea is currently recording and licensing pieces for a variety of projects and practices. She's most interested in composing for film.

The music of Innerji Studios is designed to create a tactile soundbed for the bodymind's experience.

"When I was a kid I remember my mother saying it's OK to be a non-conformist. I thought that was somewhere between a capitalist and a communist..."

ARCTIC - the band and/or solo project of Marcus Martin - is all about duality. His childhood in Yellowknife, a small gold mining town in the Arctic region of Canada's Northwest Territories, was a stark contrast to his experiences in a private UK boarding school. He grew up in the land of lakes, trees, rocks and ice with true wilderness spirit and is equally at home sharing his ARCTIC adventures in any big city, where there are more people on one street than in his whole hometown.

Coming from the Tom Morello school of guitar texture, he has learned to challenge the listener by layering unique sounds usually found only in the electric guitar world. As a loop-based acoustic artist he tours with an 80 lb. effects pedalboard - not traveling light compared to most acoustic singer-songwriters.

His live set is where this duality takes flight, as he constructs each song before the audience, piece by piece. Influenced by both 70's progressive rock and conventional songwriters of the day, ARCTIC bridges a world of opposites together. He layers haunting melodies on top of his arrangements, improvising like a jazz artist, intertwining vocals and guitar into a chilled and airy soundscape.

"I think it's hard not to be an environmentalist, growing up on the land."

His environmental message is not watered down and mixed into his music: they are separate entities. His music is an introduction; it is the common ground between him and the listener. As many will attest, he does his best to meet everyone after his show to say hi. You never know where the conversation will go, but people always want to know more about the ARCTIC - both the region and the band.

Marcus is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

•  Compliment

Tim and Dave , close childhood friends, grew up in Victoria and then moved to Vancouver to pursue music. To make ends meet we began to work in the film industry as lighting technicians. I also picked up some minor acting roles.We got to work with the likes of Robin Williams, Robert de Niro, Al Pacino, and even my favorites Ringo Starr and Jack Nicholson. During this time I gained the experience of lighting rock videos (one of which went to number one on Much Music). Anyway, because of this we were able to buy recording gear and teach ourselves the art of recording music. In the process of recording we were robbed of most of our recording equipment. We worked to replace the gear and eventually produced this C D, Never Leave it Too Late, by Mojo Filter. Can you dig it?


1 Sparks in the Ashes (modern blues rock with some groovy tempo changes at the end)


2 Sunset Blvd (LA Rock)


3 Remember That Girl (Rock n Roll)


4 Sleepless Nights (Fast Rocker)


5 News of the Day (Heavy re-write interpretation of a "Day in the Life", by the Beatles


6 How Can Love Be Wrong (Garage rock punk)


7 If Not For You (funky clean guitars with dual vocal harmony)


8 Do You Feel Like Talking (funk rock)


9 You're On Drugs (rockin boppin comedy number with sax)


10 Too Much (Clean and jazzy but it still rocks)


11 War Song (I want You) (Heavy war rock with a nice rippin guitar solo at the end)


12 The Universe (Ballad with a big ending)

We now have written over 100 songs. a lot of our new material is even more centered on the vocals and harmonies. We are currently producing a video for Sunset Blvd. We started this while in Los Angeles, shooting scenes along Sunset Boulevard. Completing the principal photography in Vancouver on 35 mm film. We are now collecting our nickels to develop the film and edit the video.

Thanks for listening, Tim Heller (Vocals and Guitar)
Dave Innes (Vocals and Bass)

So, what is this 21st Century blues?

This is how a bear looks on life. It is kind of a mixture of sushi made with a whole salmon and the view from the top of a tree. Sounds crazy? Well, come on, we are all allowed a little bit of lateral thinking, surely?

This is a very personal project. Just one guy putting his own thoughts into music in his own way and playing everything him self; whether that is a good idea or not is probably debatable, but it kept the musical differences to a minimum!

So why do it like this? Well, I have spent most of my life doing it for others. Creating soundscapes for this museum, writing music for that documentary, playing in this band, singing for that person. It has been creative, I'll give you that, but it hasn't been one hundred percent, undiluted, straight out of the forest bear. And this is.

So we have a song about global warming, we have one about losing your way, we have one about a broken relationship and yet another mourning a dying pet rat. And there are others. Certainly no one else would have written this particular collection of songs, and no one else would have written and performed them this way. By definition, therefore, this collection is as unique as it is eclectic.

Interestingly enough, in putting them up on myspace I have found a very large number of people who are not only very sympathetic with what I am doing, but busily doing it themselves too. With a very large range of abilities and success. I have surprised myself that I have enjoyed some absolutely dreadfully played music as much as I have enjoyed the most skillful. Why? Because it is played by people who really want to play. Who really want to say something. You know, these guys should get a chart all of their own and the pop stars can stay in their rehab clinics and fade away.

So, enjoy the 21st Century. I don't know how much of it either you or I will see, but it is happening anyway. We just have to deal with it.
