This is not to be considered a pro drug statement in any way shape or form, but a LOT of my favorite popular music was written, recorded, and produced by people by people on blow. In fact, it's probably safe to assume that at least one person involved in the process was on coke for any of my favorite albums. I doubt that any of them are among the "artists" releasing sped up versions of their material, so I wouldn't blame this on coke. Drugs are bad, but people are worse.

Accept. They have been doing quite well with Mark Tornillo. It's also one of the most extraordinary comebacks I can think of (thanks in no small part to Andy Sneap who has a way of rejuvenating those old bands and getting the best out of them). 12 years since that comeback started and they show no sign of slowing down. Although the old classics will always stand, imho, this version of the band released much more consistently good music than the original line up with Udo.

The year I moved into my first appartment all by myself - no roommates, no wife, no permanent gf. I wrote quite a bit of music that year, although for some reason I don't remember working with Sonar 2 , so I must be thinking late 2003. Version 3 is where I felt it really came into its own, with the updated console, the new channel inspector, Speedoft VSampler and the Sonitus plug-ins (I'd been a big fan of the Sonitus bundle from way back in the days of Ultrafunk). At that point, it felt like Cakewalk really was working hard on building my dream DAW. I LOVED that new console.
