Hell yes. Ever since it suddenly became cool to 'play in cyberspace' (ooooh),
the music media is just ripe for something like this.

Ahh. Nice spin on that one. Here's some more:
"Dream of the Cybernauts"
"Virtual Music from Cyberspace"
"Soundtrack for Cyberspace"
You get the idea. Just pile a whole lot of media-hot-button buzz words
together and they're likely to bite. There's a lot of hype potential here.

I'll be happy to try, but if I had solid connections with a label, then I
wouldn't be unsigned. Well, ideally, anyway... We need to multiply
our influence by leveraging the hype factor with the collective
influences of the few IDM'ers who *are* in tight with the labels, and
with magazines like SPIN, WiRED, etc.
I like this idea!
