>> Hello Roberto and Robert! :-)
>>  This was again an enjoyable read. At a few points I had the feeling, that
>> the last editing was done in greater hurry.
>
> There might be some truth to that, Roberto is getting married soon he
> told me, that might take up quite a chunk of his time I imagine ;)
> And congratulations again Roberto! \\//
>
>> I also ad the feeling, that this
>> episode gave the appearance of being rather short.
>>  It was interesting to get the guitarists view. the typical hands-on
>> experience. Though in a way, this is wrong, sicne Robert was engaged in
>> Muse. I didn't know that.
>
> Oh, you didn't? I am though and has been for a very long time. :)
>
> Not sure what you mean with it being wrong, I do work with MusE (and
> develop to some extent) but I am a guitarist, I don't think musically
> like a keyboard player, that's what I believe anyway.
>
>> It would have been nice to read a little more
>> about practicalities. Though I expect, that after a while, it might get
>> slightly repetitive in details, when people don't use some extraordinary
>> piece of software. :-)
>>  Robert: I don't even remember, if I ever commented on either Timmar or
>> Kilva Av. I've listened to both of them again and found, that I enjoyed it
>> very much. I like the drum sound of timmar a lot.
>
> Thanks!
> It is really a very dirty sound but it works very well in that song.
>
>> Kliva Av's drums aren't
>> bad either, but somehow Timmar was more engaging that way. I do prefer the
>> guitars and the ORGAN :-) in Kliva Av. The singing too is wonderful. It has
>> a slight menace in the verses and a good driving ring in the chorus. Well, I
>> am a sucker for good funk. Ever snce my first encounter with Eddie Harris, I
>> loved good funk. Especially those areas of the genre, where it crosses
>> instruments and ideas with other genres and gets a little more substance to
>> it.
>
> Phew, thanks :)
>
>>  Both of you: A nice job and a good read. It's always enjoyable to readabout
>> other artists, how they use Linux. Even more interesting to me though: Just
>> how they think about music, approach their own creativity and where they
>> come from. The good old idle curiousity, that killed the cat. :-)
>>  Warmly yours
>>           Julien

> Indeed, it's good to get different perspectives, we all try to make
> music but the approach varies enormously.

Thanks Roberto for another great delivery of this series that try to
promote some of our dear co-listers and great floss-tech-musicians.
(... and Congratulations too!)

And thanks Robert, I enjoyed you're different projects and your music.
Do you get to make a living on any of them? Hope so.

Thanks.
