Regarding the RPM08 submissions: do we have enough yet?  If not, I've  
got a track that wasn't actually composed in February 2008, but it's  
the last track that I worked on with the last of my gear (RS7000 &  
Warp Factory) before I sold it back in December.  This is the newest  
track I have available, and if you guys are interested, let me know  
and I'll upload a preview to the RPM08 music-bar folder listed above  
(the MP3 version; 12MB).  If you want to include it with everybody  
else's submissions after hearing it (due to lack of other's  
submissions or that you really think it fits/you like it alot), I can  
upload the full .AIF of it (about 87.9MB).

I have no way of changing the layout of the song, as I no longer own  
the gear that it was composed on (RS7000).  It's 8 minutes 30 seconds  
long, which might be a little too long for the compilation.  Title is  
Nu2Tranz (gathering you can guess what type of song it is by the  
title;-)  Feel free to use multi-band compression on it or other  
mastering tools if you do decide to incorporate it into RPM08.

If interested, lemme know.  With my one or two songs a year output,  
December 2007 is the closest I can get to the February 2008  
composition time.  I'm currently trying to learn Ableton Live Lite  
6.0.10 M-Audio powered edition that came with my Axiom 49 keyboard.   
Maybe in the future I'll have a track from that, but it will take  
awhile before I get used to the software sequencing world,  
considering my last 10 years of on again/off again music making were  
all hardware.
