SoundGod Story
--------------
Chris Snyder and Evan Korzon: Partners In Crime
-----------------------------------------------
        I have been a keyboard player for most of my brief existence
on this little blue ball surrounded with smog we like to call earth. I
have always loved to play comedy and jazz. I don't mean the jazz for
when you're feeling kind of brain-dead, I mean funky jazz, happy swinging
jazz, the jazz with a personality.
        When I met Evan in my junior, his freshman year of high-school,
he found out that I also love to work with sound effects and I was the
mixing engineer on the CD we made of our favorite s3ms and mods. It
was around that point that from somewhere, the name SoundGod sprung
into existence. Evan and a few of our friends called me by that name,
and then he turned me on to PC music. We liked what we heard mostly,
and we wanted more. But apart from the few exceptions to the rule like
Necros, Bert, and others, all we heard were variations on techno.
Apparently that was the easiest to make. Some techno is fine, but Evan
and I thought that PC music could go far beyond that. So we decided to
try and track some songs. It seemed only natural that we call ourselves
SoundGod. It just fit.
        At first, we weren't sure how they would turn out, but the basis
of our PC philosophy was and remains "No techno!" Our first song,
Improvization got some positive feedback and some helpful hints. Those,
by the way, were greatly appreciated. Dirty Old Man was our second attempt
at jazz, this time in funk. Thanks to those who contributed ideas and helpfull 
hints. Four Handed Bluz is our latest and we believe best song yet. While it 
does not have an incredible drum beat, which is fitting for blues, its cording 
and melodic lines will make your brain do a doubletake. After all, we bet 
you've never heard anything like this in PC music. Enjoy it, and as always, 
let us know what you think. 
        Evan stumbled on PC music by mistake in one of the computer games he 
was playing at the time. He also discovered Cubic Player which is the ultimate 
in PC music players. You should listen to all of our songs in either CP 
version 1.7 or higher, also, FT2 which is the program we used to track them. 
If it hadn't been for Evan's persistence and diligence, we would have never 
gotten started tracking. He is a truly brilliant tracker, and since I'm blind 
as a bat, and there are no trackers out there which don't depend on a mouse 
for use (that we can figure out), we have developed our own system. I tell 
him the notes and the approximate timing, and he tracks it. He never admits 
it, but he has a real ear for timing and some damn fine ideas of his own 
since he's also musically oriented. I have perfect pitch, so we find a happy 
balance here in lunch lady land. I write and play it, and Evan tracks and 
refines it. Since we create these songs, and plan their existences for them, 
it seems only natural that we call ourselves SoundGod.
        When you think of SoundGod, think of one entity, for that is what
we are. When you look for us on the net, look for the prefix "SG" instead
of SoundGod. You'll find us easier that way. This file should have been
"sg-4bluz.zip" Our first release, Improvization, was just "Imprvztn.zip" 
and our second release should have been "sg-oldmn.zip" so look for them under 
those names. I've babbled enough here. Listen to the song, and if you have 
time, let us know what you think. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. 
We love to hear from those who care to write.

Look for these songs to come out when we're done tracking them.

Voyager: The Startrek: Voyager Theme in a slightly different format.

No I Don't Wanna Do Dat: A comedy song written by the Happy Schnapps
Combo. In memory of Jim Kreiger A.K.A. Count.

The Tick Theme: It's self explanitory. Our favorite present day cartoon
is the tick because of his comedy. If you haven't seen it, you can check
out our amigo azul on Comedy Central.

I Like Chinese: Yes, the Monty Python song....complete with really kewl
effects.  You'll just have to see it...

Undisclosed Song for Nebulosity: We'd tell you, but them we'd have to kill
you...original composition.

More originals on the way....but we're taking a short break to do some fun
stuff...

Our songs may not necessarily be in that order, but keep an eye out if
you like our stuff so far.
