>Dear people of the net, thanks for keeping faith in

>later on in the summer. With live drum and bass.

>Here's a taster..

>Graphics/Realities
>==================
>Ken has had to suspend work on the BDP video, and most
>of the 3d imaging since the split, and concentrate on
>his music. Research on techniques of world building is
>still going on, though we haven't got the budget to do
>anything 'serious' with it yet. Everyone is learning.
>
>The Black Dog mu system is taking shape, and we will be
>calling for LPC wizards to come and help us out soon. The
>high cost of a leased line, precludes us getting connected
>to the net from the start, so we're looking at getting it
>connected with dialup landlines at first.
>
>As stated in 1989, the majority of any income from record
>sales, will be ploughed into research for FREE networking
>technologies. A friendly haven in a corporate cyberspace.
>
>So many artists, sell out, and get a mortgage, or get a
>"personal wealth" habit, that they expect you 'the fan'
>to pay for. Nothing like that goes on here.

>The "Free Tibet" album
>======================
>As you have probably noticed, some artists have chosen to
>look at china as a new market, and even play gigs there.
>
>The Black Dog feels this is deplorable.
>
>China has one of the most appalling records for human rights
>on the planet, and is subsequently being boycotted by Black
>Dog Productions.
>
>We know not to tar a nation with it's government's brush, but feel
>that tibet is ignored, because it lacks the wealthy oil resources
>of kuwait.
>
>To draw attention to the plight of tibetans, the Black Dog is
>going to record a 'Free Tibet' album, and rally ethical ravers.
>
>---------------------------------------------------------
>There is more, much more, but that's enough for now..
>Thanks for your time and patience,
>A big wag of the tail to ya..
