62.37.130.202 10:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC) Roy Newell, American abstract painter, was born in Manhattan Lower East side on May, 10th 1914 and died on November, 22th 2006 in New York. His paintings show great coloured rectangles in agreeable chromatic harmony. He took part in the Group of American Abstract Expressionists and was also a founding member of 8th Street Artist Club, which also included de Kooning, Aeshile Gorky, Franz Kline and Philip Pavia.
He was not a very prolific painter. The number of his works is less than 100, because he constantly repainted the coloured areas with new colours, until he was satisfied with the result, which seldom happened. For this same reason, he sold very few of his paintings. However, his works are part of the collections of important museums: the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Seymour Hacker, the New York University Art Collection, the de Kooning Estate and Edvard Leiber among others.
Due to his particular way of life, he never got involved in the promotion of his art neither got much economical benefit from it.

[edit] Dj Arcane
Markus N. aka Dj-Arcane - born in Soldau (Poland) - was fascinated with the techno culture. At age of 5 he moved to Germany with his parents and his brother. At the beginning it was very hard to understand anyone, but after a short time he found some close friends. They were very keen on Hip Hop music. Markus liked it as well. But some time later he found out that Hip Hop culture is not enough for him. He discovered techno.Everything started with famous Thunderdome series. Rave Base and other Techno Cds came along. Some time later he discovered "Schranz" and found out that the search for "the music of his life" is over. He bought a turntable set and started to mix. 2 years later Markus published his first mix: "Schranzbox". It appeared to be one of the most spectacular schranz sets to date. Great marks made him practice even more.Markus has made many connections with some of the biggest Schranz djs in the world. Many people around the World recognize him as one of the hardest track spinners todate! Dj Arcane has invented his own style to show people what techno is really about.

[edit] Critical Mass (New Wave, Punk)
[edit] History
Formed in the early 70's in Miami, Florida, Critical Mass brandishes their version of melodic power pop from roots in The Sex Pistols, The Ramones, The Stranglers to The Beatles and Cheap Trick. The band's first self produced demo, a two song 45 of "Silver Screen" backed with "No One Left To Blame" released in 1978, has become a sought after example of Florida's first punk band. Underground punk aficionados craving rare unheard late 70's punk rock can find copies on eBay commanding hundreds of dollars. Ryan Richardson of BreakMyFace.com calls it a swamplands gem". Since its inception Critical Mass developed a reputation as the band to see as well as hear. Band founder and singer songwriter Mick Fazz became famous for not only rocking crowds with eclectic mixes of strong original material but also performances of tunes by “The Sex Pistols“, “The Stranglers“, and “Jethro Tull“, material considered very unconventional for bar bands of the day. Fazz also became famous for his captivating on stage persona and in crowd antics including being chased by the nightclubs chef with a meat cleaver as he ran through the audience with a T-Bone hanging from his mouth. After a couple of years of self promoted concerts, gigs at local Big Daddy's night clubs and sending out tapes by the dozens interest soon followed.
The band began playing showcases for major record labels like Capitol, RCA, RSO and MCA. These showcases included a gig at Tramp's in New York City arranged by legendary Beatles promoter Sid Bernstein. This showcase led to a debut album deal with a five album option on MCA records. Recording began at Chris Squire's Studio in England in the fall of ’79 with production by Onward US, a company jointly owned by radio mover and shaker Lee Abrams and Yes bassist Chris Squire.That album, ”It's What's Inside That Counts“, layered Mick Fazz's melodic vocals and the dual-guitar assault of Mick Fazz and Dave Owen for a classic power pop, or what might then have been considered New Wave-ish, sound with a hard rock edge and pop songwriting components.
The album was released on the MCA label Oct 3, 1980. The group spent the rest of that year and much of 1981 touring. Critical Mass then changed its band line up as guitarist Dave Owen and drummer Mike Barone left the band, with bassist Henry LaPlume staying on board. Added to the line up were Frank Prinzel and Tom Vasquez respectively. Prinzel having been a previous member and part of the 1978 two song 45 quartet which had included Tom McWilliams on drums and Al Schwartz on bass.
This iteration of Critical Mass did some touring and headed into Criteria Studios to begin recording material for a follow up album to “It's What's Outside That Counts“ .
Critical Mass was paired with the sibling production and engineering team of Ron and Howard Albert. Atlantic and Polydor records had expressed interest in the band but the music scene was changing and the hard edge of punk and new wave was succumbing to the more processed sound of hair bands and Sade. The band produced some respectable offerings but alas, the “industry” wasn't biting.
Over the years the Critical Mass line up has varied widely with the one consistent ingredient being the creative mastermind Mick Fazz. Now based in the Orlando, Florida area, "The Mass" has been gigging and recording off and on for years. Mick Fazz had partnered with local radio personality Mark Samansky on several projects and in addition, stepped out with an innovative project called “The Basements” , a musical trio consisting of only a drummer (Phil Fleetwood) and two bassist's one being commanded by Fazz who handled the vocals as well.
[edit] Today's Critical Mass
The Critical Mass lineup as of January 2007 features Frank Patterson on Bass. Frank has been playing in the Central Florida area for about 20 years. The bulk of that time as a guitarist and bassist for Jill Towers & Heat. One of the most popular bands in Central Florida during the 80s and 90s. The drummer for The Mass is Phil Fleetwood, who's background includes The Generators, a band that recorded 3 albums and was featured on the nationally released Breakout USA CD. Issued by The Westwood One Radio Network, the project featured the top 15 unsigned bands in the country in 1991.
After a quarter century Mick and the Mass are releasing another self produced offering entitled, “It’s What Counts That’s Inside“ . The project is a result of a partnering of Mick and former Mass alum Frank Prinzel. Using the resources of the Internet as a vehicle to once again present Critical Mass’ music to the world, "It’s What Counts That’s Inside" serves up more of that hard rock edge and pop songwriting style in a scorching, head banging, moshing, frenzy.
