The Polish Ambassador composes music that is a pleasure for your ears and a sensory experience for your mind and body. He has been compared to many top electronic artists as having an irresistibly danceable beat, and that is spot on…his music is fun, and catchy, and downright awesome.

I dunno, there may just be something magical in that yellow jumpsuit he wears. I asked TPA a variety of weird questions, and he, in turn, gave me a variety of surreal answers. So, check out his music, read this, and then check out more of his music.

Interview by Peggy Mintun

In this Omnibucket Magazine interview we had the distinct pleasure of speaking with one of the preeminent astrophysicists in the known universe, Dr. Neil deGrass Tyson. Dr. Tyson is the director of the Hayden Planetarium. You may be familiar with a number of the books he’s written.

He is also the host of “NOVA Science Now”, and has appeared on History Channel‘s science program, ‘The Universe’. Dr. deGrasse Tyson has also appeared numerous times on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the Colbert Report, and the Conan O’Brien show.

Some time in the near distant recent faraway past we were able to catch up to Aaron Funk of Venetian Snares for a little interview. If you don’t know who he is, you should discover who he is and listen to some of his music. Funk, who is from Canada, has a passion, or maybe an addiction, for creating a prolific amount of mind-blowing electronic music and is a brilliant composer.

We were able to drag him away from making music long enough to answer some of our questions, some serious, and some seriously stupid. But he played along and gave us a little glimpse into his world.

When we met with Amanda, she was working on a release planned for the spring of 2008. We connected with Amanda at the 2007 Festival Fringe in Scotland and asked her about what she’s been working on and some of her 2007 tours.

Try not to stop if you are ever driving down a dark, deserted highway at night, even when it seems like the right thing to do. You never know what may happen…
