In any case, Amato's music holds its own with or without the events which lead up to his recently released "Full Circle" album. Elements of the most diverse genres are pressurised in a romantic combustion engine. Tobias Fischer

    Music is Living in Motion !

    By conceptual design I've successfully incorporated an obscure semi-random artificially intelligent element of transitional potential throughout every applicable aspect of my artistic creativity.

    I am providing this optimal psychological communication, & therefore developing an ideal situational environment that will facilitate the sustained future transformational possibilities in relation to all of my musical compositions.

    This is truly a new revelation!

    I do this in order to allow the music to forever move forward , to refresh, to remain in transition, in perpetual motion, to organically grow, to become something that's always different from what it just was, to evolve beyond what it is now & to constantly change into what it eventually inevitably might someday become.

    I am bringing the music to life !!!!!

    Congrats to "Rantings of Eva"!!!

    I also wanna say congrats to everyone in this comp for getting heard and getting the recognition that you all deserve. I know I at times displayed my emotions in ways that was not cool. But it's all in the growing up department, and we all evolved from this.

    Just keep keeping it real, and we will once again (soon I hope), be side by side in our quest for success and being HEARD!

    Here's another idea for being heard!

    There's a new page on MN called "Collaboration Nation" for the listing of music that are collabs between 2 or more artists on MN.
    It's not just there you can be heard, but if you collaborate with other artists in other genres, then your limitations to which contests you can enter just opened up to an endless selection. Use whatever you can to BE HEARD!!!!!

    I
    love you all to DEATH!
