new music online
Saturday, November 9, 2002 4:20 PM
I recently started working on some electronic music using MIDI sequencing, samples, and other digital music tools. A couple of those songs are now available for download in the open-source Ogg Vorbis format. If anyone has input about open-source music development or audio licenses, please visit the forums - registration is really easy and it's free.

With this new disc, the server is now full. There is a lot of new music that I am not able to put online until I get some disk space and bandwidth sorted out, so if you or anyone you know can donate some of these services on a stable, reliable, high-capacity system, please contact me!
Thanks,
willi

the forums have had a number of interesting threads lately, including some discussions about solar power, hiking on O'ahu, and open-source audio licenses.

registration is really fast and easy, and of course it's free, so check out some of the other interesting threads. if you are a musician drop by the songwriters conjunction junction and share some ideas. of course there are always some games or projects going on in the games forum and some tasty recipes and other stuff, so i hope to see you around in the forums!

gridrunner++ released
Thursday, October 24, 2002 12:10 AM

i've recently had the pleasure of working with the famous game programmer Jeff 'Yak' Minter of Llamasoft on his latest game, GridRunner++. This retro-style shooter is full of fast action and some very cool and unique graphics. originally intended for the handheld PocketPC computer, the game was actually just released for Windows PCs. There is a fair amount of gameplay and depth to the game and can be quite fun, so click here for more pictures, information, and links.

while you are in the Games Section, don't forget to check out Quake 3 Fortress page, or stop by the games forum to see what other projects are going on, read some reviews, or if you just have thoughts, comments, or suggestions.. At any rate, there is a lot of interesting discussion going there as well as some tasty recipes and other stuff, so i hope to see you around in the forums!

Monday, July 22, 2002 6:03 AM

there are 3 discs of music available online again. Everything is a direct download link now so it should hopefully clear up any problems people were having accessing the files. The albums are:

Be sure to download them all and discuss them in the forum! I would love to hear your thoughts, comments, and suggestions.

Hope you like them,

about the new site
Monday, July 22, 2002 4:20 AM

the new site is running mostly customized php and html, with the forum being driven by phpBB. the site really needs at least 800x600 resolution and its recommended to have javascript on and cookies enabled for the best experience on phpBB forums. everything should be pretty functional but if you find any errors on the site or broken links or whatever, please email me.

earth2willi.com is back online!
Monday, July 22, 2002 0:01 AM

yes it's good to be back! I apologize for the lack of site updates for so long but I ran into some technical troubles and lame hackers with the previous version of the site and as a result I ended up doing this redesign. I have not yet moved the old user logins into the new system, and to be honest with you I am not sure if I will be able to for a variety of reasons.. So I really do apologize, but at this time you will have to recreate your account. That said, registration is now a lot easier than it used to be, and the forums are much more open than they were before. Please take a moment to register and say 'hi' or post a question/comment on the forums! And be sure to watch for new uploads -- I have a lot of music and other stuff coming online soon! Thanks a lot to everyone for their help and patience, and have fun!

Best wishes,
willi
