SoundGod Story
--------------
Chris Snyder and Evan Korzon: Partners In Crime
-----------------------------------------------
        I have been a keyboard player for most of my brief existence
on this little blue ball surrounded with smog we like to call earth. I
have always loved to play comedy and jazz. I don't mean the jazz for
when you're feeling kind of brain-dead, I mean funky jazz, happy swinging
jazz, the jazz with a personality.
        When I met Evan in my junior, his freshman year of high-school,
he found out that I also love to work with sound effects and I was the
mixing engineer on the CD we made of our favorite s3ms and mods. It
was around that point that from somewhere, the name SoundGod sprung
into existence. Evan and a few of our friends called me by that name,
and then he turned me on to PC music. We liked what we heard mostly,
and we wanted more. But apart from the few exceptions to the rule like
Necros, Bert, and others, all we heard were variations on techno.
Apparently that was the easiest to make. Some techno is fine, but Evan
and I thought that PC music could go far beyond that. So we decided to
try and track some songs. It seemed only natural that we call ourselves
SoundGod. It just fit.
        At first, we weren't sure how they would turn out, but the basis
of our PC philosophy was and remains "No techno!" Our first song,
Improvization got some positive feedback and some helpful hints. Those,
by the way, were greatly appreciated. Dirty Old Man is our second attempt
at jazz, this time in funk. Evan stumbled on PC music by mistake in one
of the computer games he was playing at the time. He also discovered
Cubic Player which is the ultimate in PC music players. You should listen
to all of our songs in either CP or FT2 which is the program we used to
track them. If it hadn't been for Evan's persistence and diligence, we
would have never gotten started tracking. He is a truly brilliant tracker,
and since I'm blind as a bat, and there are no trackers out there which
don't depend on a mouse for use (that we can figure out), we have developed
our own system. I tell him the notes and the approximate timing, and he
tracks it. He never admits it, but he has a real ear for timing. I have 
perfect pitch, so we find a happy balance here in lunch lady land. I write
and play it, and Evan tracks and refines it. Since we create these songs,
and plan their existences for them, it seems only natural that we call
ourselves SoundGod.
        When you think of SoundGod, think of one entity, for that is what
we are. When you look for us on the net, look for the prefix "SG" instead
of SoundGod. You'll find us easier that way. This file should have been
"sg-oldmn.zip" like our future releases will be.  Our first release,
Improvization, was just "Imprvztn.zip" so look for it under that name.
I've babbled enough here. Listen to the song, and if you have time, let us
know what you think. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. We love to
hear from those who care to write.

Look for these songs to come out when we're done tracking them.

Four-handed blues: Based on a song played by a fourhanded piano player
and Commander William Riker in a bar on Startrek: The next Generation
Episode: Unification part II.

Voyager: The Startrek: Voyager Theme in a slightly different format.

No I Don't Wanna Do Dat: A comedy song written by the Happy Schnapps
Combo. In memory of Jim Kreiger A.K.A. Count.

The Tick Theme: It's self explanitory. Our favorite present day cartoon
is the tick because of his comedy. If you haven't seen it, you can check
out our amigo azul on Comedy Central.

Our songs may not necessarily be in that order, but keep an eye out if
you like our stuff so far.
