Ubuntu for my recording projects.
Before you settle on Ubuntu, _especially_ if music is your main
application for this machine, have a look at the various audio
optimized distributions.
Try here:
http://www.ubuntustudio.org/ -- much like your choice
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/ -- well supported
http://www.mandriva.com/ -- my choice
http://www.64studio.com/ -- 64-bit option
http://www.dynebolic.org/ -- I looked at it once
http://demudi.agnula.org/
Good luck....
