MUSICIANS SEARCHING

I'm  searching  musicians  for  simply  projects (little games, music disk,
etc.).   Concerns  me  every type of ProTracker modules, especially modules
with  only  two/three voices (especially two) for games.  Each modules used
in  my  projects, will have the author's name in the credits obviously, and
for those who want, their home/e-mail address and a short message



Thanks to:
