Deals with the Devil: A Brief Musical History
It has been long rumored that The Devil and musicians sometimes go hand in hand. Some music fans may be surprised that this belief goes back much further than you think! And is there proof that Satan had a hand in creating some of the most memorable tunes?

UPDATE: After uploading the video, it occurred to to that Sony have in fact revisited their back catalogue recently with the re-launch of the Aibo robotic dog. Hopefully this will continue and we’ll get to see some more modern reinterpretations of classic Sony products.
OMISSION: I forgot to mention that I pulled out any remnants of the old felt washer that was protruding from between the cogs before installing my replacement cloth tape.
Also perhaps I should have clarified that the gears unit was welded on at both ends, there were no retaining washers or e-clips that could be removed to disassemble it.
There’s also a fan website dedicated to the Sony PS-F5 that has some additional information – https://www.ps-f5.com

Cowboy Bebop Theme Song: Tank! on Eight Floppy Drives
One more anime cover before the month’s over! It’s one of my favorites for sure, but I have to admit the ending was a real let down for me personally. Either way, doesn’t detract from the fantastic music the series has.

Metal / Jazz / ProgRock Fusion : Nova Collective “Ripped Apart and Reassembled” (FULL BAND PLAY THROUGH)
Nova Collective performs “Dancing Machines” from their debut album “The Further Side.”
Nova Collective began in 2014 when bassist Dan Briggs (Between the Buried and Me, Trioscapes) and guitarist Richard Henshall (Haken) began exchanging emails about music; before long, a few demos were fleshed out into full arrangements. Drummer Matt Lynch (Trioscapes, Cynic) and keyboardist Pete Jones (ex-Haken) came on board shortly after to finish writing the album. The Further Side was written on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, with Briggs and Lynch in America and Henshall and Jones in England, sharing session files until the group could get together at the beginning of 2015 to record with engineer Jamie King (Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist). Mixed by Rich Mouser (Neal Morse, Transatlantic), it is immediately
clear that The Further Side is a labor of love for all involved, and that enthusiasm shines throughout.
