---- CHANGE OF ADDRESS If you'd like to send me music for review/airplay/clubplay consideration, please note the address change at the end of this circular in order for you to update your contact list. NEWS Well, well, well....high time I'm back yes? I've actually gone through two new shows since my return to Miami, but there's been quite a bit going on so things weren't exactly smooth saling. More in a bit. First, you can find all the info you need for the two post-Miami shows. Urban Landscapes Radioshow 8.12 and 8.13. You can also check out my picks for April, also below. MIAMI My second visit to sunny Miami didn't turned out that bad. For the most part, it's been fun. It was cool to catch up with people old and new, as well as dope DJ and live performances all over the place. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to catch everyone that I've wanted to meet, but that's how it goes. I've taken quite a number of pictures, which I'm happy to say are now available. To view them, go ahead and visit http://www.urbanlandscapes.org/gallery. Check the top navigation bar, because you can choose to have the pics do the slideshow thingie. Easy, me hopes! Big shouts to Micah, once again, for finding this dandy tool. On the last night of Miami, I was stricken with a bug that had worsened over a period of a few days--lasting over a week. On top of all of that, I was busy moving and cleaning. I'm moved for the moment, and I'm happy to say that I'm nearing full recovery. You'll have to excuse me as I'm a bit behind on everything from music feedback to prepping my chart to contacting all the peeps I've met in Miami. I'm slowly but surely working on it. MIAMI SHOUTS... ...must go to Jessica from SPECTRE, Garo from Rooftop Promotions, Nate from Lift Promotions (though only seen Eric while there), Tom from Switchstance, Rusty from the All Good Funk Alliance, Nate from the First Floor Brothers, Vicci from On Point, Daniel Best from Sonar Kollektiv, Luke from Sunny Side Up, Nick from Best Kept Secret, Missy from Re:Up, and Miche from Canada among others. Big thanks also goes to those who weren't there, including Tomas from XLR8R, Adam from Giant Step, Eric from Lift, and Matthhias from Sonar Kollektiv. Those not on the UL list that need props include Orin & Daz from the Bugz crew, Juergen from Jazzanova, Louie Vega from Masters at Work, and Peter Kruder. Most of all, I'd like to thank Christina and Greg from Citrona. Cool peeps, and they know how cool they are. Oh, and sorry to have missed you Cynthia. We'll have to meet up at some other point on the time horizon. THE URBAN LANDSCAPES GUESTMIX PRESENTS: INTUIT Last week's Urban Landscapes Guestmix came from the duo known as Intuit. One of Compost Records' oldest acts, Intuit dropped its debut album last year. They've recently put together a new mix, and you can listen to it as part of last week's broadcast. Website: http://www.compost-rec.com CHANGES WITH KCPR'S LIVE STREAM As of this week, we've decided to bump up the quality of KCPR's live stream. With it comes some changes in the requirements in order to listen to us. From what I've heard via the DJs at the station who have listened, the sound is much better. So in order to listen to us, you'll need either the RealPlayer 10 (Windows/Mac/Linux) or Quicktime 6.x (Windows/Mac). You'll then need to access the following location to pick up our live stream: rtsp://129.65.35.106:8000/stream.sdp This should work out for you, me hopes....happy listening! Send me email, by the way, to let me know your thoughts on the sound quality. FIN Now that you've digested all of this, it's time for you to enjoy your weekend. I will enjoy mine, however busy it'll be. Stay cool. ---- VELANCHE'S SOUNDSCAPES April 2005 (in no particular order) 1. Mark de Clive-Lowe - Tides Arising CD (Antipodean/ABB) 2.
