The online digital music revolution was started on this day exactly 28 years today when, on August 8, 1988, revered inventor Andre Gray uploaded the very first
complete song on the Internet titled "Internet Killed The Video Star", a song he composed on a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer and in the MIDI format. Within hours the song
spread across many disparate Usenet groups and BBS: bulletin board systems signaling the official birth of online/Internet music and served as a calling card for the
digital music revolution. The song "Internet Killed The video Star" by Andre Gray is now acknowledged by historians as the big bang and Rosetta Stone of digital music
and the birth of online entertainment in general.
But in order to understand the impact and influence of "Internet Killed The Video Star", people must understand what the Internet was like before Andre Gray came
along. Commissioned by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA for short, the ARPANET was launched on August 30, 1969, when the first
Interface Message Processor (IMP) was delivered by the BBN to Leonard Kleinrock's Network Measurements Center at UCLA. Built from a Honeywell DDP 516 computer with a
12K memory, the IMP was specifically designed to handle the ARPANET network interface, and so began the humble birth of what was originally conceived as primarily a
military and academic research network. It would remain a hardcore academic research and military platform for the next 19 years attracting mostly academics and
thousands of people from around the world who understood the arcane aspects of accessing and navigating the Internet.
Andre Gray went online for the first time in 1985 and was immediately hooked. One of the first things he tried to do was to access music online only to discover that
there was no music on his network or any of the other disparate online networks. The netizens of that era were more than contented the merely form various music
discussion groups and provide armchair music criticism. Being quite proficient in MIDI, computers and the burgeoning Internet, Gray felt as if he was onto something
special. He quickly realized that MIDI did not produce music but rather it is a protocol that allowed instruments to speak to each other or a computer. The information
generated were instructions that when played back on a computer was translated into music. Armed with this information, Gray set out on a mission to record and upload
music to the Internet. Composing both the instrumental and vocal versions of what the world would eventually come to know as "Internet Killed The Video Star" and
making a scratch demo on his Teac 144 Portastudio in his college dorm room in March of 1988, Gray came back home to New York City that same summer and recorded both
versions of the song in a three-hour recording session using a Yamaha DX7 to great effect.
The response to Gray's uploading of the instrumental version of "Internet Killed The Video Star" on August 8, 1988 was immediate and overwhelming. Within a few days,
the song was posted on disparate Usenet groups and BBS: bulletin board systems. If you are listening to the song in order to determine whether or not Andre Gray is the
next Mozart, then you have completely missed the meaning & intent of the song. The true importance and intension of the song rested in the fact that it clearly
articulated what everybody online at the time was grappling with: how to upload, access and enjoy music on the Internet. The epochal event, often referred to as the
big bang of digital music, transformed the Internet from what was primarily a military and academic research platform into a digital media entertainment platform and,
in the process, he has done more to democratize music and entertainment than any person or corporation in world history.
Today, digital media entertainment comprises more than 98% of all web-indexed pages and academic research makes up less than one percent. As for the song itself,
"Internet Killed The Video Star" surpassed the 50 millionth download/play mark on April 4, 2000. The song has been re-mixed, imitated, interpolated, completely re-
imaged and packaged in numerous compilation albums and sold. It has also spawned a cottage industry that sells books, tee shirts, sweatshirts, mugs and other
merchandising items bearing the slogan that is a universally recognized synonym for the democratization & freedom all citizens of the world wide web.
After single-handedly transforming the Internet from an academic and military medium into a digital media sandbox for the world to play in, Andre Gray could have
easily rested on his laurels and travel around the world giving speeches and still be regarded as one of history's greatest inventors. Instead, the restless genius
would go on to release a stunning series of revolutionary inventions that killed industries, gave birth to new industries and changed the world at least six times. For
instance, in 1994, Andre Gray invented ringtones & ringbacks (SYNC Programming Language) and single-handedly transformed the mobile phone from a mere communication
device into a digital media entertainment device that is the most popular and preferred device for multimedia consumption. The SYNC Programming Language, the world's
first third party downloadable app, gave birth to the multi-trillion dollar app industry we know today. Gray is one of the most important inventors of the modern era
whose direct impact touches, in one way or another, all seven plus billion people in the world on a minute/hourly basis and generates trillions of bits of data on a
daily basis. He is truly the undisputed Godfather of Digital Music.

New Release "Bongo Boy Records Out Of The Garage Vol 2" Comes Full Speed, Motor Running, With 60's Garage And Punk Rock
Bongo Boy Records Out Of The Garage Volume Two.
ASIA RELEASE: 7.19.16 | WORLDWIDE: 7.26.16 | UPC 686751362033 | ISRC: USPXQ
Step away from those power tools, dudes and dudettes - this garage is gonna rock without 'em. The mavens from Bongo Boy Records have ginned up a brand new batch of the
ultimate American homegrown sound - jangly reverb'd guitars, Vox-Velveeta cheesy organ sounds and untuned drums slapping back from the close quarters where your old
man stored his never-ending car restoration projects and dirty mags. Out Of The Garage, Volume Two picks up where Volume One left off, and it's hitting on all ten
cylinders here. Check 'em out and lighten up on the accelerator, just enjoy the ride.
Mark "Ponytail" Lindsay gets the party in gear with Show Me The Love - muy macho and the most authentic balls-out strut from the '60s you'd ever expect. Fist-pumping
rumpity bumping - dare you not to shake your groove thing.
Somewhere a swamp garage is missing a bunch of gassed-up gators - that's the vibe on So Fine by The Nolas. Big spoiler alert - these croc-o-dialers turn on a dime and
make surf's-up waves that zap you right back to the '60s.
A revved-up raveup classic: cars, girls and Cheap Perfume's take on Boys, a B-side for The Shirelles and a Ringo sing-song on a record by his old side group, The
Beatles. Cheap Perfume makes the case for high-octane rocking with four on the floor for this Motown classic.
Can't say I agree with the sentiment (even with its parenthetical disclaimer), but that doesn't stop the oil pan slickness of Mike Daly & The Planets motoring through
Kill A Clown (No, Not Really). These guys make music that purrs like a kitten with a tiger in its tank, meanwhile apparently knowing a million ways to kill clowns
wherever they are encountered.
I love my car, I love my guitar, I love you but you broke my heart when you took me to the beach and didn't give me what you promised - the story in a nutshell in A
Little Bit Lied To from Susan SurfTone. A rock-blocked engine drop on love's lost highway, with heartache in the rearview.
Mia Moravis and her tune A Spy For Love makes me feel like I'm in a cartoon car from the past, slinking around corners late at night, doing the perviest things in the
nicest way. I've never met her, but I feel like she's got her eye on me, just poised to snatch me up and wrap her cuffs around me.
In Pamela Davis' Don't Look Back, her overdriven fuzz-drenched guitar reacquaints me with the feeling I have every time I see the blue lights blazing behind me. I try
her advice, but you know what they say: if you make eye contact, they've got you. License and registration, please!
I may have noted previously that hooyoosay sound like they're at some kind of eternal dance party in their minds. The Wrong Kind Of People is a happy-go-larky tune,
driven by artists who thought they had a map, but damned if they can find the glove box to check it.
The Accelerators invite us to their drop-top drive-along, on the lookout for Sun Surf And Sand. Mind your MPH, fellows - and keep the SPF handy.
Imagine if Neil Young had sung about The Ramones instead of Johnny Rotten. That's the point of departure for The OneNeeders' Ramones Rock. Three gears and a dream,
barreling down the lost highway, eyes peeled for the last chance gas.
Happy motoring, from yours truly, Gatemouth Wighat
