                               a musicdisk of
                            previously unreleased
                     tracks from Basehead / Five Musicians



  Intro---
  ========

  Hey.. BH on the keys again here.  I'm sure most of you are a bit startled,
  and you thought i quit the scene.  Well: I did.  These tracks are not brand
  new (for the most part).. they are in fact tracks that until now were just
  lying around, either half-done (in which case i finished them), or collecting
  dust (in which case i just threw them in)..

  So basically, this disk does not reflect a "return" to the scene.. i am still
  on AnotherNet IRC (servers neato.org / irc.netnation.com / etc) where myself
  and a few others successfully moved the EFnet channel #trax -- but i am
  still for all intensive purposes, done with scene-tracking.

  The most important thing you can gain from reading this info file:

  ******  THIS DISK WAS *NOT* MEANT TO BE A LOTUS POSITION II!@# ******

  In my opinion none of these tracks are up to par with my music in the last
  musicdisk -- so why did i release this?  I felt the need to release some
  of my stranger, more "out-there" stuff to the public -- i want to see what
  the reaction is like.  I don't attempt to avoid pigeonholing, but i guess
  it just happens naturally.  I had some unfinished ideas and business so i
  wanted to tie it all up and get these outta the way.  I'm sure some of you
  will enjoy them, and at the same time i'm sure other people -- specifically
  those who enjoyed the clear, crisp, more "pro" (ugh) sound of Lotus Position,
  will think this disk is a load of crap; either way, these tracks are true
  ME (not that L.P. wasn't) .. and are extensions of my creative mind.  I
  can't tell you to like them, but listen with an open mind, ok?

  Once again, there's no point greeting everyone i talk to all the time,
  so i will just greet the people who have given me feedback on these tracks,
  it's appreciated: gravedigger, aahz, k8to, necros, leviathan, maelcum,
  phoenix, and ryan cramer. (if i forgot someone.. oops!)

  send me your opinions on these tunes!! more than anything i've done, i want
  to know what you people think about these tracks -- because these are the
  things that i didn't think people would be ready for in the past.

  Straylight---
  =============

  As an aside here, i'd like to briefly introduce Straylight Productions --
  a group of musicians dedicated to doing digital/fm/midi soundtracks for
  commercial productions.

  Members are: Myself (Basehead/FM), Necros/FM, Leviathan/REN/KFMF, and Siren.

  Between the 4 of us, we have done music for a slew of games -- if you are
  a game/multimedia company in need of a soundtrack for your production,
  contact either myself or necros (bh@axs.net or necros@axs.net respectively)
  and we will get back to you right away.

  [a formal info file, resume, and list of references will be available
   upon request.]

  Note: we prefer %capital/up-front money projects (i.e. no profit-sharing),
        and we will give top priority to those deals, but we will not turn
        down ANYONE on the basis of their chosen method of payment.

  Outro---
  ========

  Alright kids -- i hope you enjoyed it, drop me a line, and look for my
  stuff (as well as the rest of Straylight's) in many commercial productions
  in 1996 and beyond. And also, definately don't count me out of doing a
  CD or 2.. it may happen sooner than i expected.

  Ciao!
