Today I would like to bring to your attention an artist of the highest caliber. A creator not just of beauty, but of auditory magic. A musician of such talent and rhythmic audacity that I am humbled to even mention his name in print.
In fact, due to certain ancient customs and several international treaties, I am forbidden to mention his name in print and must refer to him instead by his state approved pseudonym of SPF-100.
SPF-100, or SpiffCent as I like to call him, is a legend in the underground music scene. He not only rocks the Kasbah and surrounding areas with shimming waves of melodic grandeur, he also has been known to rouse the comatose with testosterone-laden beats and spleen-pounding rhythms of pure joy.
In laymen terms, his chops have chops of their own.
The fact that I raised SPF from a cub in no way limits my unbiased objectivity and unquestioned capacity for music appreciation. If anything, my judgment of his compositional skill is too conservative, as attested to by the following track called Believer.

I know what you are thinking; all 6.2 million of you currently traveling the internet at this moment, a track of such sublime inspiration must be a fluke. No one could continue to function at this level of creative geniusity. Oh, but you’re wrong. Feast your tympani upon this number called Underwater.

Click this second triangle to summon greatness once more.
Of all the revelations revealed today, possibly the greatest news of all is that you can listen to SPF-100’s already respectable body of work all day long via your favorite web browser and the SpiffCent musical reservoir located at Last.fm or even the secondary reserve residing at MySpace.
It’s a lot to absorb I know, but just take it one song at a time and everything will be fine.

Love the music. He’s very good. I’m going to dl it to my iPod. Thanks for sharing! He’s great!
He should do movie soundtracks and be the new Danny Elfman!
Chunks of Reality -I think so too. Remember there is a lot more to download at his last.fm page.
Debbie -That’s not a bad idea. I guess I do know some film people, hmmmm……
Thats some nice work, what program or equipment is he using.
Alex L. -He’s got a lot of equipment but I believe that these tracks were made entirely with FLstudio.
Good reviews huh. Very enough for someone to immediately check it out. I’m a great fan of good music and might as well try this.
Nice. Rhythmic harmony indeed. Well found/spotted/aurally noticed.
I liked underwater the best. Yes, I like being underwater too.
SAS Sylt -You won’t be disappointed.
Chris -Yes, it would make for a wonderful afternoon break. At least I think so.
rjlight -Excellent taste in both, I must say. But try to remember to surface for air from time to time, it adds to the enjoyment as well as the lifespan.
Never heard before, if i found this on Last.fm, i will be happy.
Really? I crawled up in my turtle shell waiting for it to be over. Maybe I’m not much of a techno kinda guy.

GraveDancer -This my friend is why they call America the land of opportunity to rock.
blackdog -Digging the Pink Alligator. It’s okay to not like techno, after all no one’s perfect.
