BOOKS
I prefer thought provoking philosophical books that revolve around the human elements rather then using props or gimmicks to keep a plot line going. Most of the books listed below revolve around the concept of consciousness and identity and tend to explore those concepts through plot lines that stretch the idea of what it means to be human.

Really pleased to hear from you Ben - been missing you too my friend - more than you might realise.


I noticed your player wasn't up-dated, so I've done it for you Ben ... your music is far to good to miss, and not just for myself - members & visitors too


Last year you featured on the Chris & Lisa Radio show - we're going to record a few more shows this year, and Soul Summation is on our listing once again


You might not know, but Lisa & I got married - best thing I ever did


Anyway Ben, so pleased to hear from you - really hope your visits to `POP` in the future are not so long & distant as you're one of the family here without doubt!

Ben, your new works with Tony is superb ... "Mind & Soul" is a quality example of polished Electronica - its also what I would term `Intelligent` Electronica too, which is no surprise from you guys.


I've included this new works in `POP's pick of the month` for Steve Gilmore's reviews.


Well done Ben & Tony!

Hi Ben, great to see you ... how's things going your side of the world - I guess work is still the main issue (as with most of us)


I'm making a new version of the original film that included your awesome track ... this time I'm keeping Tony's and yours as independent films.

Tony's is complete, yours should be finished soon bro.

First of all, I will second Chris's congratulations on having a number 1 over on the main site. I haven't actually heard ti yet, but I will have a listen as soon as I finish up a few things on my page...another blog entry underway.

Anyway, I thank you for your comment to the message posted on Chris's profile. Yes, life is what you make of it. Mind you, it took me a helluva long time to see that myself, lol. We all get down in the doldrums every nowe and then, I am afraid to say, but it's whether we stay there or rise up out of it that is going to make the difference, I think.

How come it is so much easier to say "I can't" instead of "I can"? It's so much easier to say "it ain't gonna work" than to say "it is gonna work", or, at the very least, "it could work, but I won't know until I give it a try". We can be our worst ene3mies, self defeating as we talk ourselves out of doing what we know we want to do.

Well, obviously, to get that number 1, you did something, cos you wouldn't have gotten it otherwise. If you're anything like me, you probably did it for your own satisfaction, first and foremost, thinking that anything else that comes in addition is a bonus.That's the way I look at it now, self satisfaction first, and if it pleases others, wow, great, even if the music industry might ignore it.

So, yeah, I suppose you could adopt a "life is a bitch and then you die" attitude, cos life does have a tendency to throw a few curves at us. Nevertheless, as I am discovering, after crawling out of my own deep dark pit, life is still worthiwhile after all, if you just smile. Charlie Chaplin was right when he wrote that song SMILE. You know, it actually takes more effort to frown.

Anyway, thanks for the comment and sure do hope things going well in your neck of the woods. Stay productive. It's all worth it.
