Welcome:
I'm back from my little trip to the sands and mountains of Afghanistan and looking forward to doing a live show in the next few weeks. In the meantime, DJ Anubis is back and playing your favorite Rock and Metal tunes. Hordes of Chaos and A Rock and Hard Place were live last weekend and the shows were awesome. I thank our members and guest for keeping the site and station alive and kicking while I was away. My son just celebrated his 2nd Birthday, epic and have not seen my Sons, Wife, Friends and Family in over 7 months. Good to be home so let's crank it!

Here are the recent bands that joined IAAM since I was away, all stellar!
Band/Artist 0017 is Yves Potin
http://www.jazzcomputer.org/about
My name is Yves Potin. I play guitar since I was 15, and I listened to a lot of music at this time : Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, and also the rock and roll of the Rolling Stones among many others. I'm proud of having bought albums such as Wish you were here, Going for the one or Klaus Shulze's Timewind when they were released.
Jazz was for me like a revelation, especially the fusion styles. The first Chick Corea Elecktric Band remains one of the best groups I've ever heard and seen, with Scott Henderson playing guitar. Scott is my major influence on improvising techniques. But how could I avoid to mention Michael Brecker, Herbie Hancock, Allan Holdsworth and Weather Report among many others ? I finally had a year of Jazz classes at the CIM.

I've always been interested in computer science. During the eighties, I wrote the music you can hear on my first album, using an Atari ST with a couple of synths ; the spreading of the internet in the late nineties made me learn many things about networks and computers, especially using Linux.
During 2005, I've decided to plug my guitar again after a long break. Computers were yet powerful enough to make quite everything in electronic music ; the possibilities offered by the Internet to release albums from home, without the hassle of searching for labels, marketing, and all that stuff, gave me a real new start.
So here am I, gathering what I like the most : tweaking synths and climates and melting the results with guitar improvisations, and hoping you to enjoy my albums
🙂.

From a review : Jazzcomputer.org's music « reveals new variations and an astonishing-sensual combination of elements, motives, sounds and textures. The musical orchestration seems to flow into deep spaces, dissolving material rules to reach the listener into an unique mind travel, full of reveries and mystical projections.»

What's Hot:
Ever heard of Grooveshark.com? We now have the ability to add players to each artist's topic so you do not just see a video, but you may also listen to the songs we have loaded for the artist. Members who also join Grooveshark.com may share their playlists for a given artist on IAAM. The more players shared the better
🙂 We are strong supporters of the Grooveshark Team and we have over 600 players shared on IAAM and we expect more to come.
We do have our very own gift shop, stop by and give it a look. We have found the lighter clothing up to grey is best with the images we have, so let us know what you think, if you order let is know as well:
Take Me There
