JUDY MARKWORTH
"Throughout my life, it has been my dream to compose music which would lift the spirits of others just as my favorite artists have done for me.  I have been fortunate enough to have done this for a few people and it is my hope that I can connect with a few more via the Internet."

Playing a strange hybrid of music... their compositions have been played at weddings, funerals, raves, at healing sessions and in meditation. How's that for versatile?

Their long awaited, new album, Psychedelicatessen , is out now.

OSAMU
Higher Octave Music wrote "Osamu Kitajima's 14th album, "Beyond the Circle," is a departure even for the adventurous Japanese-born instrumental composer. As the title suggests, Kitajima ventures beyond his previous pioneering explorations of ambient sound and textures on this release for the new Higher Octave Music custom label, Cyber Octave."

His most recent album of new material is Inscape and Landscape, named after the 1975 book by Pierre Dansareau, a now out-of-print meditation on the human spirit blending with what at the time was a rapidly rising movement in consciousness about the ecology of the planet.

MARK SLONIKER
Ken StitzeI (ks@fc.hp.com) recently saw Mark playing live. "He does a regular gig at one of the nicest restaurants in town, and it's really a pleasure to have a great meal while Mark mixes his own compositions with jazz standards and all kinds of miscellaneous tunes. (One highlight: Mark's keyboard arrangement of "Cavatina", the lovely guitar theme from the movie "The Deer Hunter".)"

Mark has recently collaborated with a videographer to create a video that portrays the loveliness of the Rocky Mountains, set to Mark's music. It's called Rocky Mountain Mystique. Available for $19.95 from Integrated Media (970-484-3016). You can check out more info at this web site:

Its' primary instrument is the synthesizer. Or, the human as synthesizer.

SAUL STOKES
Recording his own particular, and very atmospheric, style of electronic music based 'round a modular anoalogue synth that he built himself.
