I’m going to Netaudio ‘06, on behalf of Furthernoise. If you read my blog, want to meet up for a drink during the festivities, let me know via my contact form. Especially if you’re a netlabel/creative commons musician who wants something reviewed!

There’s a lot going on at the festival, which runs from Friday 15th September to Saturday 16th, with music in the daytime and evening, as well as various discussions and events. Of particular note are the Pure Data workshops.
