I do believe you fulfill your design rules incredibly well 
I've actually got a sweet plan to change up my site already, which will probably be complete within a few days...

Natty, that's really interesting. The Himalayas, really? Intense. Do you have any plans for the material you did put together, however incomplete?

Re: Chip Music Magazine (22 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I could write for it, though I have zero experience writing for any publications. I could write concert & album reviews, or little experiments in chip theory & culture.
print version would be more difficult but also way more rad.

http://chipflip.wordpress.com/ <-- would be a valuable source of info in this endeavour
again, sorry for the initial skepticism/negativity. it just seemed out of the blue. writing a book is a big undertaking. best of luck though, and if there ever is an english version, it would be rad.

Haters always gunna hate.
Anyway sounds like a cool idea
I'm not hating. Just look at the first post. Barely anything is said or explained. That's all.
I guess I'm skeptical. Sorry! I shouldn't be negative.
Btw, I would buy a good book on chip music in a second.

Topic: battlelava.com now exists! (10 replies, posted in Graphics, Artwork & Design)
Before I get to the point of this post:
I've started going to school at Concordia University in Computation Arts and as a requirement (for most courses in the program apparently) students have to keep a site where they post assignments and other classwork related things.
So I finally decided now was the time to buy the domain battlelava.com and start a legit website. I chose Blue Host for hosting. Along with the site I also set up a wordpress blog: battlelava.com/blog. That's mostly the school part.
The point of this post: Design choices.
As of now the site is very new and simple but I would love any considerations from any/all of you as it grows and even as of now. Let me know what you think, and let's just talk about web design in general too, 'cause I feel like I want to have a lot fo fun with this :>

If anyone cares at all about how I operate, or how to get shows in Australia this is how... I am tight with a few venue bookers (mainly warehouses) a few events directors and a few genre-savvy promoters in the cities I tend to play in. That way, I can literally say "hey, I am keen to play somewhere around this date, what can we do?" and something tends to happen.
This is how I get any non-Toy Company show in MTL, except I am not even tight with venue bookers- I just approach them.
If you wanna play in MTL you make friends with the TC crew though, 'cause they're the best right now for a chip music show.
But, hey, Decktonic, I have a buddy who makes a living completely off of dj'ing. Know how he started? Doing one free gig after another until shit fell together. At first, you really shouldn't need an agency to book shows. I wouldn't ever contact an agency unless I was gonna tour another country, or something in that respect... but maybe that's just me. Of course, I'm not a DJ, so that comes into play also...
