shameless self-plug starts here:
Symphony #1 is still available for 8 euros inc. worldwide postage. just
e-mail mailorder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
or check out other goodies at www.staalplaat.com

for lovers of computer stuff, I might add that soon available is a full
length CD by 386DX, Cyberpunk. This musician from Moscow plays the most
desirable songs from the history of popmusic on an ancient pc, 386dx
(whatever it may mean, Staalplaat is entirely mac oriented!). Songs by the
Mama's & The Papa's, The Who, Rolling Stones and such like. With the
original software added on the CD you can create more of those yourself.
available next week from mailorder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx for 15 euros.
