I love Cantaloupe Records. David Lang's <I>The Passing Measures</I> is one of the most beautiful compositions I've heard this millennium and Phil Kline's <I>Zippo Songs</I> was my hit of CES2006. While supplies last, you can order a <I>free</I> Bang On A Can/Cantaloupe Records sampler and find out for yourself how good their recordings are. Adventurous and different—and did I mention <I>free</I>?

Okay, now that we've sent the March issue off to become beautiful and real, it's time to move on to the April issue.
