I have started a website called InDeepEndAnts (aka Ants) which will
showcase all types of music, including blues & jazz, for _independent_ labels.
(The big guys don't need any help!) Any indie label or band with past or
present compact disc releases interested in _distribution_ on the Net
should definitely contact me. (i'm just not set up for vinyl or cassette,
sorry - don't
hate me!)

I am also putting together an Ants review staff of radio personnel and/or
music publication personnel. Experts in the field, if you will, who are
interested in new music. -Anybody out there interested?

Compact discs will be sent directly to the reviewers - arriving sort of
like Columbia House except you don't pay $4 kabillion dollars for it and
it's actually a genre you want! The reviews will be posted on the website
and reviewers will be listed - complete with photos of the non-shy. (Sound
like you? Or the guy next to you? Your mom maybe?)

Please check the site out at <http://www.elwood.com/ants>
and send me your thoughts and comments.
The first band on the site is a bluesy jazz (or is it a jazzy blues?)
player named H.M. Johnson.

Please feel free to respond to me personally at patti@elwood.com.
Thanks.
