What is Mu-Kau Methane Industries, Inc., you ask? It is many things. It is the worldwide corporation which owns the Pakistani Pizza and Auto Parts chain. It is a team at distributed.net which you can join. It is the record label to which are signed such nation-acclaimed artists as tsb, Rosa Negra, and many more. It is also a project put together by the illustrious Dan McCormack, and it is this project on which this webpage will focus.

There is not much currently up, as we are still in the writing stage. Here's a few things you should know about the project:

• The music will probably be primarily metal and prog metal.
• The drums will not be midi! Scott Sturdivant will be playing drums on the CD.
• It would be cool to be able to work out something where my brother plays drums on some of the tracks too, cuz I like his style a lot too. Perhaps I will record his parts sometime when i go home for vacation.
• It looks like the planned collaboration with KorgX3 and Bogie wont work, so we're going back to the original idea of me doing most of it and Scott doing drums. Which really, I like more anyways.
• It will be sold on CD-Rs with computer-printed liner notes (looking at the possibility of getting both the liner notes and the CD printed for real) for $5 or so. Nothing much, mostly just to cover the blank and the printing.
• The album cover is pretty much finished:

Here are some sound clips from the three of us. These are not necessarily going to appear on the CD; they're simply so you can get an idea what we sound like. Most of these are utterly embarassing, since we weren't planning on putting them online (sorry Scott :). So take them with a grain of salt.

Keep checking back, though, because, unlike my other webpages, I plan to update this page regularly as the project progresses.
