Thanks for reading!

Five Musicians is a new form of a get together on the computer music scene.
It's not a regular music group, but rather a band.  We intend to work solo
as normal, but also (to the point of a band) work together on releases.

So what really is FM?  As the name implies, it is five musicians getting
together for what they like doing best--music.  These five people are (in
no particular order) James Storer (Big Jim / Valhalla), Dan Grandpre
(Basehead / Kosmic Free Music Foundation), Jonne Valtonen
(Purple Motion / Future Crew),  Andrew Sega (Necros / Legend Design) and
Jaakko Manninen (Mellow-D / Surprise! Productions, Hardcode).

Our coming releases include (apart from "solo-appearances") several
co-op tunes, either in MOD, S3M, XM or CD format and, hopefully, several
music disks.

"How do I contact the members or the band?"

We're all on IRC, that's where you should start for normal chatter.  We
all use our handles as nicknames, except for Mellow-D (Jak on IRC, long
story).

If you wish to contact the band as a whole, please send mail to
"fm@pot.hole.fi".
Email for each musician are as follows:

Big Jim    	j.e.storer@bradford.ac.uk
Basehead   	ssn@pcnet.com
Necros    	asega@ic.sunysb.edu
Purple Motion   pmotion@unix.mpoli.fi
Mellow-D   	jak@pot.hole.fi

"How about releases?  Where do I find them?"

All the new releases are first uploaded to ftp.mpoli.fi.  After the uploads
are reviewed and are moved to the correct places, you can find FM-stuff in
the directory /starport/music/fm.  There should always be an index appended
to the end of this file!


That's all for tonight, see you later!

Signed,
The Five Musicians
