The Ambient Ping is happy to announce that the "Ping Thing" has now been officially launched. This will be a weekly "boutique" of ambient and experimental music CDs and related products available each week at the Ping. This will be a source of hard-to-find music from the Toronto scene and artists from across the continent. Hosting the Ping Thing weekly will be rik maclean of Mara's Torment - a creative electronic musician himself and very knowledegable about the music presented. A big "THANKS" to rik for taking the initiative to get the Ping Thing launched over a month ahead of schedule. Artists interested in having their music sold through the Ping Thing can talk to rik at the Ping or at torment@corpusnet.com Drop by to buy CDs, have a cool microbrew, chat with rik and the Ping regulars & get a free live ambient/experimental music concert. ;o) See you there...
