Hi Paulo, all! Your off-topic mail is an excellent idea ... so now let's take some minutes for a reply, since I love music :-) Okay, I'm not a musician, but I really enjoy to listen to music if there is some time.

At the very moment, it's just radio ... although I have to say that I quickly get annoyed by most of the radio stations, especially the moderators. Although it is a really tough job to "entertain" the crowd 24 hours a day, sometimes it would be helpful to limit time for moderators, and instead spend it on broadcasting good music :-) But, there are a few excellent public network radio stations in Germany, with a great variety of (not so often repeated) music, and well educated moderators. > But in the last months I've been listening many of my ever preferred > artists.

Nice collection ;-) In general, there are always songs / artists performing different music styles I tend to like - whether it is Pop, Heavy Metal, Classical Music. But here are the ones that really had some impact on me during the last months ... Sa Dingding: A Chinese artist doing almost "everything". The song I've got addicted to (first) was "Alive". And I had the chance to see her in Germany last year ... that required quite some traveling. The funny thing: Nobody else knew her, so I had the chance to be in the first row, and to chat with her band after the show. Rupa and the April Fishes: Rupa performs in different languages and easily switches between different styles. Amazing, so to say. And, if this matters to you, the recordings of these artists are just superb. Excellent mixing without any artificial sound ... Currently I've also re-discovered Loreena McKennitt who performs "world music" - something to really relax ... I really love all the Celtic stuff :-) > *Maybe it can be part of the third step of our Kick-Off...
