The UMRK Info Center - Technical info on Frank Zappa's Studio & techniques.
This site has been in my head for about a year now. I thought i'd try it out for real on the web where we could batch together lot's of information about Frank Zappa's work in the studio. There's plenty of sites out there covering the many aspects of this great man but not really anything that deals strictly with his techniques in the studio.
Like many, I have been very impressed by Zappa's recording techniques. From the genius tape edits of his early career to the remastering of his entire catalog in later life, Zappa never seizes to amazing me with his attention to detail.
So, the plan is to use this site as a resource and library of information that might help us folks learn a bit more about where Frank Zappa was at.
This site also intends to be a shrine to his studio the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen, detailing the equipment used there and hopefully giving us more of an insight to this special place.

2. Slipcue
Welcome to SLIPCUE, the website of San Francisco Bay Area DJ, Joe Sixpack. Equal parts e-zine, music guide and wacky carnival mirror for my overstuffed, overly musical brain... If you like international music, country and folk, power-pop and melodic punk (and an occasional good laugh), this low-tech, content-heavy labyrinth might be your cup of tea.
"All Substance, No Style"
Our motto. This reflects my quaintly outdated interest in using the internet as a way to simply provide information, as well as the primitive level of technical skill I am able to apply to the job. True to the old-fashioned 'zine ethos, Slipcue has been consciously designed to be as low-tech as possible, partly to make it easy to navigate, and also because designing complex HTML programming seems like more hassle than it's worth.
Framing the argument more negatively, when I personally surf the web I have found that I generally don't enjoy visiting most of the more elaborately-structured webpages... I think these sites are often designed more to interest the programmers who design them, than to serve the people who might visit them. Years ago, when I was looking for information about music and artists that interest me, I frequently ran into slow, hard-to-navigate websites, most of which had more advertising space than intellectual content. It was a drag. But rather than just complain about it, I decided to make the kind of website that I was looking for to begin with, and I offer it to like-minded folks, free of charge. Whoo-hoo ...
