Welcome

elcome to the Digital Meltd0wn Music Blog. The aim of this blog is to introduce the readers to music that is out of print, commercially unavailable, released under a creative commons license, or with approval by the featured artist. The majority of the music posted here would be considered underground. Don't let that fool you into thinking that the music featured here might be any less enjoyable than that of the mainstream artists you hear on the radio, as this couldn't be further from the truth. Please keep in mind that the majority of the artists that appear on this blog, along with their respective record labels, are not wealthy and need your support. If you enjoy the material that you find here, please support the artists/labels by purchasing their material afterwards. If you are an artist/label that would prefer to have your material removed from this blog, simply leave me a comment, and I would be more than happy to promptly remove the offending post. In addition to running this blog, I also work on a few other projects during my spare time. You can find links to those, as well as a few other important links associated with Digital Meltd0wn in the menu bar above.

I bought this [the 1981 reissue] when it came out, and it's nice to have it in digital format as well. Looking forward to what else you'll be posting...hoping for SOMEthing by him i don't have. If what you're doing gets people to buy his books, i envy those who are experiencing HE for the first time. I own about 50 of them [!] and i'm sure you'd agree: it's money well spent. Get a taste here, get The Feast in his books! A remarkable man, a remarkable writer. Thanx for doing this! :)

Ira Seigel: I'm glad that I could present an Ellison fan with something that they hadn't had the pleasure of experiencing yet. Please let me know how you liked it.

@apollojams: I couldn't agree with you more my friend. I remember how I was blown away the first time I read his work. When you mentioned that you owned 50 of "them", were you referring to books or audiobooks? If you own 50 audiobooks I can almost assure you that I won't be able to post something that you don't have. Here is what I do have though (which doesn't amount to much):

Individual Recordings of Stories:
Jeffty Is Five
I'm Looking For Kadak
Run For The Stars

Compilations:
Angry Candy
The Voice From The Edge Vol. 1
The Greatest Science-Fiction Stories of the 20th Century (Features Ellison and many others)

I would also have to check and see which of these are still in print. I'm not willing to post anything that is for obvious reasons. Please let me know if you're interested in seeing any of these posted.

Thank you so much for posting this! Not only am I now a raving Ellison, but (thanks to you) I got to hear him read his own words. You guys have an awesome blog going, keep up the outstanding work!
