I stumbled across some rockin’ music on My Space this afternoon.  Tucson, Arizona’s  Zaratexperience offers 4 kickin’ songs on their My Space profile.  Zaratexperience is Eddie Caballero III  and Sebastian Zarate.  They have received about 90,000 hits since December.  Fools Moon, their most popular song,  has been played 18,000 times.

Each song has a simplistic yet suggestive iconic drawing that I think is cool.  The first song, Fool Moon, is a driving blues number reminiscent of Gun and Roses or Alice in Chains.  I really like the  tripplets in guitar strumming.  It’s hard to incorporate complex meters into pop music, but the guitarist does this masterfully.  The vocalist does some really enchanting blues bends in this song.  Their performance is truly expressive.  This is definitely worth a listen.

The next song, Good Night, betrays Zaraexpereince’s wealth of influences.  The song starts out like a driving-Pink Floyd-hard rock number and then immediately shifts into more of a 70’s Bowie style.  It then takes us someplace more original, enchanting us with its magic.

Panties to the Side is a seductive track featuring crooning romantic vocals, expressive texture shifts and an erratic Hendrix style guitar solo.

Fly Freedom is an American Pink Floyd-ish Anthem that starts off with dexterous guitar picking and finishes with a philosophical historical perspective.

Zaratexperience chooses to keep a mystic by presenting no band bio.  There songs are suggestive of a Rhythm Section that never makes an appearance.  I would like to hear this band amplified with a good drummer and bass player.  However, Zaratexperience takes the acoustical rock duo to the extreme thus making them note worthy.

I just purchased a new domain name in order to promote the Teleputer. The domain is teleputer.us.com. I have forwarded that domain to a portal that I will expand over time to help people find alternative entertainment on the Internet.

Gas prices are almost $3 a gallon here in Oklahoma.  I have gone through 3 vehicles in the past 3 years and with the price of gas being what it is, I am not very enthused about buying a new car.  I can ride the bus to school (fortunately, Norman has some of the best public transportation in the state) for free with my student ID.  Instead of wasting all of that petroleum making fuel for SUV's, I think we would be better off telecommuting and using the petrol to make chips.  I say, beef up the Internet!  Use the Information Superhighway, and leave the Old Superhighway to the interstate truckers.

Enough of my ranting.  I hope everyone had a wonderful Cinco de Mayo!!!

I’ve found some good entertainment on the net this weekend!!!

Neil Young has made his new war protest album, Living With War, available online.  His web site is Neil’s Garage.  Click --> here to listen.

Astrological guru Rob Brezney also has a musical offering online.  His band, World Entertainment War, is offering free mp3’s of their work.  They are awesome.  To check them out, click à here.

I spent a good part of this weekend using my mouse instead of my remote at Google Video.  Reruns of the old Twilight Zone are $1.99.  There is also a Top 100 free video feature.  To check it out click à here.

I was just watching video from C-Net and apparently the Mozilla Foundation is using advertising developed by users for a new promotion.  The top 5 submissions have been selected and I must say that I am impressed.  Click --> here for proof that you don’t need an advertising firm to develop your ad out here on the new electronic frontier.

This is just another piece of the puzzle that shows us a roadmap for the new paradigm.  By developing technology, we will no longer be enslaved by the current Corporate Media whose aim is to control everything that we see, feel, think, and do. 

You are a part of that new freedom...

The Internet2 reached a new speed record of 8.8 Giga Bits per second (Gbps), according to a recent AP Report.  This is nearing its theoritic capacity of 10 Gbps.  The next phase of the Internet2 will include a fiber optic network that operates on 10 color bandwiths with a capacity of 100Gbps.  To put this in perspective, a movie which now takes about 2 days to download at normal broadband speeds would be available in seconds.  Traditional broadcasting is licensed and regulated by the gocernment.  However, the Internet offers the potential for anyone to broadcast information to anyone at anytime.  Such on demand style of content delivery will revolutionize the way our world operates. 

In honor of the happenings on the technology front, I have posted a snippet from the song Brainwashed by Nuclear Assault.  Nuclear Assault is releasing their first new album in more than a decade.  To check out their site, click --> here.

Radio, an insidious form

helps shape your thoughts making you conform
Programming music easy listening

help you achieve that moronic grip
Playing you regurgitated pap

selling products that are mostly crap
Rarely hearing music you want to hear

it has an effect over all these years
Why don't you think for yourself
Live in this self made Hell

Television, the idiot tube

helps to raise our children as fools
Watch the news see what they want you to see

our awareness is limited by network TV
Moronic sit-coms and one-sided news

alter your feeling give you conformist views
Why can't you get that garbage out of your head

you'd better off to read a good book instead
