2nd calling for untitled compilation of sound

if you meet these requirements then please contact me -

1.) you feel that you create unique , unusual , original  , strange , wierd ,
out of the ordinary  music/sound/noise

2.) original not meaning that you mix two styles of music , like a hybrid , 
 for example ; trip-hop , break-beat techno , noise-core , acid house .

3.) and obviously not meaning that you make a "style" of music , like drum &
 bass , or ambient dub , because that would not be original 

4.) you do not use written lyrics in the music/sound/noise.  vocals are fine
 when they are not making actual words or sentences. ( may make exceptions ,
 ask me)

5.) and of course , you do not copy the distinct style of any artist

(sorry for sounding all systematic , I just want to be clear as possible )

your material CAN  be - structured ,unstructured , rythmatic , non-rythmatic
, 
 harsh , calm , minimal , dense , layered , colorful , dark , light ,
 atmospheric  , electronic , acustic , analogue , digital 

there are no restrictions except for 1 - 5

I will decide what format to put this comp on when I get all the submissions
in
 and the track listing finished.  It will not be on cassete , that is
definite.
  it will either be on 2xLP or CD .  The deadline  for submitting is -
January
 1st 1998.  I felt this gave enough time to record an exclusive track and/or
 organize some kind of audible format to send ( if you need more time for any
 reason tell me). I can only take (as of right now) - cds , cassetes , vinyl
,
 or  - wav files , mp3 ( I would prefer a physical format though).   I have
 limited distribution capabilites so I will need a small amount of help with
 that .  contributers accepeted will recieve at least 2 copies of the comp.
 or
 if contributers volunteer to help distribute they will get more. 

No profit is planned to be made from this comp , any money made will be to
pay
 back for manufacturing costs.  I may  possibly take orders before the
pressing
 so I can know for sure how many to make on the first run. the purpose of
this
 compilation was to help get artists that do something different more
exposure.
 I really get tired of most comps only have one type of sound , which is what
 most of them  do.  So I wanted to try something new.  

please tell your friends or bands that you feel might meet these requirements
 that don't have internet or newsgroup access.  

I am only going to give me e-mail address and not mailing address on this
post
 because I want to know more about you before you submit.
