ISSUE#3::
{interview}Pimmon
Paul Gough aka Pimmon is one of the most interesting, challenging,
original and experimental cutting edge electronic artists today. Hes an
artist who plays with the sound itself and doesn't get close to the
traditional meaning of the word music.

{interview}Frenchbloke
Frenchbloke is a prolific creator of what have been interchangeably
called "bootlegs," "mashups," and "bastard pop". Gaining a bit of
notoriety from "David Fischer," which featured the marriage of
Fischerspooner's music and singing by David Craig, he continues to revel
in the questionable glory of ruining people's enjoyment of their favorite
pop music.

{interview}8 Bit Construction Set
The 8 Bit Construction Set and the Beige Programming Ensemble have
completed such projects as a 12" containing software executable on Atari
and Commodore computers, re-programmed Nintendo cartridges, collaborated
with Bodenstandig 2000, and initiated the World Cassette Jockey
Championship competition. Scott Shelhamer takes on the Beige boys in an
email interview in which they disclose their favorite kernal routines,
debates the importance of hardware and software, and discusses the degree
to which their 8-Bit basslines made his booty shake.

{interview}Enduser
Lynn Standafer discusses his music project, Enduser, chats about his
label, Sonic Terror, and wows Tim Gideon with his impeccable table
manners.

{interview}Bud Melvin
Bud Melvin sounds like a Doc Watson video game complete with power ups
and end screen songs. In November, Bud rocked the house at the First
Annual Game Boy Challenge with his 8-bit folk.
