Two exciting things to tell you about. First, you remember a few weeks ago I wrote about this:
"KOCH Records released the latest compilation in its "ReGrooved" electronic music series, "Beatles ReGrooved," on June 7, 2005. So it is fitting to find 14 classic Beatles songs re-imagined and "ReGrooved" by some of the biggest names in the electronic world on this unique and fascinating compilation. "Beatles ReGrooved" is the follow-up to 2004's critically praised and successful "Classics ReGrooved," which upon release immediately shot to #1 on the iTunes Music Store Electronic Chart. Featuring electronic kingpins such as John Selway, skylab2000, MystiQuintet, EROS and Jay Atwood, "Beatles ReGrooved" will appeal to longtime fans as well as aficionados of the chill out and down tempo scenes." Well. it went to number ONE on iTunes and stayed there for quite a while. Thanks to many of you for listening and downloading. Of course you can still get the CD in stores, so grab one! Number two... Every few years I tell people about how we got the name "skylab2000". If you are old like me, you may remember the NASA space station we had in the seventies called "skylab". It was up there in orbit for a quite a long time and taught us lots of great space stuff. One day, after some major problems, NASA told us that space station "skylab" was going to crash into earth, but they didn't know where it would hit! Yikes! There was widespread worldwide panic as no one really knew where the 78 ton ship would crash!!!! People did all kinds of crazy things to protect themselves against it. Ah, fun times.. It finally did crash in an uninhabited area of Australia, and we were all safe. Thas was July 12th 1979, 26 years ago TODAY!! Back here today, Dennis of skylab2000 is well out of orbit and is safe in the studio working on new music, and actualy taking July off for vacation, so no show news to report. Yes, there are shows in August, but we'll tell ya about them later. So, stay safe and look to the skies. Lastly, since there's always new folks on the net, I'm gonna slip some quick bio info in here for the folks who don't know about us. If you are familiar with the band, thanks for reading this! Mission control out. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ BIO: skylab2000 has played live in Mexico, Japan, Russia, Turkey, Istanbul, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Puerto Rico, Alaska, Vancouver, Montreal, and literally hundreds more cities worldwide. skylab2000 is not a DJ or a 'laptop' band.
