Although This side is now soooo painfully slow that it is no longer a real funny thing to upload something - here is a new song. Welcome to any visitor who wants to leave a comment about the music. This title features Sara England on vocals - she as well as myself have discovered what it means when you a re trying to build a "house of love" with the wrong person. That's what this song is about.

- Raven — Calling All Interested mi7 Musicians
-
-
As all of you know, I am a devoted mom as well as a composer and musician. And as all of you know, I am a very vocal advocate for Autism Rights.
I enjoyed participating in Mindmovie's CCC project so much a few months ago that I was thinking it would be interesting to create a similar recording with snippets of my son's insights regarding Autism from an interview done with him in July 2007 and the update interview that was done with him last month.
What I am thinking of doing is using his comments along the lines of a hip hop / vocal dance mix composition. The purpose of the song would be to bring a better, more positive understanding of how children with Autism perceive the world in which they live ... our world, not their world.
I can only offer credits in lieu of money unfortunately. All of you are such incredible artists and all of you have been such good online friends to me in good times and in the most troubling times these past few months.
If you are interested in participating in this project (which would be promoted globally with links back to your websites or to your mi7 profile page just as our MIC Audio Podcasts on Autism are global), please email me at ravenmagic2003@yahoo.ca.
Thanks.
Raven :-)

-
-
In spite of the fact that the past two months have been exceedingly difficult for me, I have nonetheless updated the MIDNIGHT IN CHICAGO website and uploaded it as of yesterday evening. Stop by at http://www.midnightinchicago.com and wander about the new digs.
This time, I've added 7 ringtones (one that is free to download for the summer) along with other interesting things. There's an MIC blog that's co-written with the American Artist, Thomas D. Taylor, who is also the MIC Artist. There's a "Dime A Day Inspirational Quotes" service visitors can sign up to receive and information on the "Art from the Heart" and "De la part des beaux arts" events this summer.
It's worth taking a peak without a doubt.
Also, the two-part audio podcast on Autism and Vaccines has been uploaded. The podcast discusses Autism, mercury, thimerosal, vaccines and separates fact from fearmongering fiction. You can find those at the website as well by clicking on the PODCAST tab.
Drop me a line and let me know what you think of the redesign and the podcast.
Raven :-)

The world is spinning too fast right now. Too much violence, too much greed. It is just too much of everything right now. I can´t find any pleasure in making music anymore. Every song is already written. Every new site on internet is just a bad copy of a site thats already out there in cyberspace. It is just too much of everything.

-
- Holy Contractual Matrimony Batman! MATT REA$0R and the MADNE$$ just signed a deal with the best Southern Artist Oriented Record Label On Earth, DUALTONE! Holy Crap this is huge. My first introduction to the music presented by Dualtone was Jim Lauderdales’ hugely influential "Other Sessions" album, and Hayseed Dixie’s "Hillbilly Tribute to AC/DC". I was reviewing alt country albums for all music guide, and frankly Dualtone knew the deep fried trend was coming by way of left of center. So it makes complete sense that the best label stuck out their paper hand and picked Nashville’s "Best Looking Golden Psychobilly Emerging Legend of Country and Punk" , none other than yours truely, Matt Reasor featuring Tucker Tamble and Barry Daniel. What does this mean wise jelly bean, you ask. Well this means "Pentecostal Pasta Salad" will now be available for digital download on all the major digital distribution services and networks like iTunes and Amazon and way way beyond..I’m talking Inter-planetary-internet man, stuff we don’t even know about yet, dude! To add a cherry to the top of the float that your granny got you for being so sweet, is that Dualtone has also picked up the High or Hellwater catalog(Matt’s old band from when he lived in California, groovy high cotton times). So be looking for "High or Hellwater", "Living the Good Lie", and "Legends and Hall of Famers" available from Dualtone records. Getting this deal is a huge homage to independent music and the lifestyle behind it. All of these projects have been self funded and promoted up to this point, to have the great honor of being in business with the leader in world of independent country music is as big as an honor as I have ever experienced. This completely rocks! read more...

- mattreasor — Performer Magazine Album Review!
-
- Don’t let the scattershot artwork of Pentecostal Pasta Salad fool you or the album title belie what’s on the disc. Nashville’s Matt Reasor and the Madness conjure up moody and fuzzy melodies on the album, blending Roky Erickson atmospherics and garage guitar riffing to craft a wide variety of material ranging from country to rock to even a little soul. "Get Weird" pumps with honky-tonk strut and juke joint cool, breaking midway to rave up and politely come back down. Reasor’s vocals radiate somewhere between Izzy Stradlin and Kevn Kinney and on "Apathy" Reasor recalls music from the Epitaph Records days. Burying vocals against the calamity of guitars crashing against one another works well. Reasor’s yin and yang vocals make for a larger album sensibility. "Some Stand, Smile and Wave" is gentle country meets Roky Erickson and "3 Reasons the 2 of Us Aren’t 1" is all country and perhaps the albums best song title next to "Thunder Mistlefist", a barnburner that closes the album. An excellent surprise is "Ronnie’s Looking Good", sung by Sarah Wynn. Wynn’s deep and sultry voice is hypnotic, a sexier and throatier Narah Jones and worth buying the album alone. But Pentecostal Pasta Salad is rife with surprises, from "Ronnie’s Looking Good" to the spoken work "Tuesday Night Garbage Swindle" or the John Lennon flavored lovely "I Don’t Miss Us At All", an achingly sad number that, while short, is divine.
