Model Of The Invisible band is originally from Diracabad, a small coastal village near the ancient calcite mines on the south shore of the Dirac Sea. After after some years working the cruise ships and resorts of the Dirac Sea, they were rounded up, arrested and held in a secret prison cell for 3 years in Albania before being offered a deal in USA cleaning parking lots.

This music is influenced mostly by a wide variety of musics that exist well outside the mass marketing of the rock/pop/rap world. It's like, totally Blingless .. dig? :shock:

Sunken Treasure is really good.
Are there real musicians in this or is it just computer wizards? It's getting harder to tell these days.
Cool sounds though.

Thanks to you all for listening and the kind comments!

Jahva - Thank you. It is one human playing real instruments, electric guitars & bass, drum set, sakara drum, Farfisa organ, vibes ( the vibraphone sound is really from a Casio :oops: ) each recorded on different tracks. Pretty much using a DAW as a tape recorder .. old school style, don't even use "punch-ins"

Etu Malku - Thanks. I was especially inspired by Miles's keyboard playing.

JCP61 - Thank you.

MikeTalbot - Thanks ... and I didn't even get to mentioning the parts of the story about why we were arrested and the rendition tour to Ethiopia! :lol:

All the more impressing.
Loved the guitar effects... definetley fitting. Especially the reverse sounds on some of the leads.
So how was the fishing in the Dirac... they're usually biting this time of year...

Jahva - More thanks!
The guitar is going through a old Roland SPH 323 Phase Shifter, Chandler/Butler Tube Driver, Mu-Tron wah pedal to a Gilmore Jr. 1/2 watt amplifier driving an old Jensen PA speaker.

Funny you should ask about the fishing! Since the cruise ships did not always provide meals as we had agreed upon, only maybe some raw cabbage, so we had to go fish for food sometimes. Only one day the bass player had something heavy on his line and we all dreamed of the feast before us as we helped reel it in. But what we pulled from the water was not fish! It was a shipping trunk containing some ornate brass boxes with hundreds of USA Federal Reserve Bonds from 1934 in them! At first we thought we might be able to use them to buy our dinner, but considering each bond had a face value of $1 Billion dollars we decided it would be more appropriate to offer to buy the entire cruise ship. After a few preliminary negotiations, the bonds were confiscated from us. Unable to pay the necessary bribes, we were sent to Ethiopia to be interrogated by USA intelligence agencies and then on to their private contractors in Albania. After some years nobody could find the boxes of those bonds anywhere, so without that evidence they had to release us. The station chief said he could get us a record deal in America on his cousin's label and loaned us airline tickets here. But it turned out that it was not really his cousin and so things get so complicated from there. 8)

Chief Engineer Scott - A deep sinker! :wink:
