    Guys, my hard drive exploded. (this is bad, please read)

    One of my harddrives (a Quantum Fireball, at that - the irony) caught fire.
    The logic board is dead.

    I am thus missing a lot of my own music.
    If any of you have ANY pandable, some disputed barricade, the rhapsody, etc tracks that aren't on the following albums, please tell me:

    albums I still have:

    lunaris
    music for four synthesizers
    mirrors
    the visitant

    I am thus missing...

    old henderson (the dogtown album)
    the marburg ep
    the recording of the first TR show
    the recording of the second TR show
    alchemy and transmutation

    and many, many tracks, including but not limited to sky fish and midnight sun.

    If any of you have any material released by me - even if its just a single song - please post and tell me the name of it. I really need a lot of this back.

    Also, if any of you feel like donating a dollar or two (seriously a little does go a long way - replacements aren't expensive) towards me finding another Quantum Fireball with the same firmware, so I can swap the logic boards and hopefully get my data back... please tell me. Even a dollar or two would be much appreciated. I know I don't know a lot of you that well, but I've got old friends here, and some of them like my music, so.. I thought I'd ask.

    In other news, one of our cats, Almond, needs surgery for his eyes, and I'm trying to raise some money to help him out...
    I have a few unopened copies of Alchemy and Transmutation, the ep I released in november, left. (I'd rather not open one in order to rip it, even though I lost the master tapes.) There are only 23 of these in existence. It's a CD-R release, as are many relases in the ambient music sector, with a lable on the CD-R (you can still kinda see the cd-r logo, sadly, under the lable) - but it is the first release on my ambient lable, Hidden Stream Records, and it's also the only release Alchemy and Transmutation will ever see.

    I know there are a few die hard pandable fans out there among my friends, so I say this: far beyond donating a dollar or two to help get my hard drive back, the pressing problem is Almond and his eyes. If any of you want one of the last copies of Alchemy & Transmutation, post and let me know what you'd be willing to pay for it. All of the money will go towards almond's surgery (his eyelashes are backwards and cut his eyes), and you'll be getting one of 23 copies of a pandable album never to be reprinted.

    Consider it.

    Anyway, yeah.
    This sucks.
    man your own jackhammer
    man your battle stations
    we'll have you dead pretty soon...

    I have some of your stuff in a folder on my home PC, I'll check soon.

    I don't have any money left right now, since one of my own cats is sick from that pet food that was recalled. Irony abounds, since the food I was feeding him before I took him to the vet was fine (it's one of the best formulas), and the vet prescribed new food (prescription C/D, just recalled a week ago) for him. Ugh. UGH.

      I have a 19.5GB Quantum Fireball Plus AS Series 3.5 HD I don't need anymore

      I paid $40 for it, if you arrange the shipping and everything you can have it, I dont need it as I have a 180GB HD now, thats all I can afford to donate...I need all the $ I can get in the upcoming weeks, otherwise I would pay for shipping or donate to your kitty...

      Sorry to hear about the loss of your stuff, that sucks

      PM me if youre interested

              Hito, is that the You Could Hear the Stars single with the Amniotic Sea (ambient mix) b-side? If so - yeah, I really need that and the cover art that came with it, too, if you still have it. If you could zip that up.. that'd be excellent. I can't remember if I put liner notes in there too, but if I did, throw them in, too.

              JPS: could you type up all the data on the lables on the back of that HD? I need to make sure the logic board will work with my hard drive.. x.x

                Not sure if those are barcodes for the store or the manufacturer, just decided to throw them in anyway

                  I have the "you could hear the stars (single version)" and the "amniotic sea (ambient mix)" + the cover. I also have some of those song samples you shared. If I find anything else, I'll let you know.
