Hey guys I produce electronic music under the alias 'Biko,' and I've just released a full-length album called 'Solastalgia/The Place of Indigo. biko.bandcamp.com/It is a collection of material from the past 3-4 years, and is something I'm currently focusing all my efforts on promoting. If you're interested in ambient/chillout/experimental electronic music, then you might like this. Many thanks to anyone who takes the time to have a listen. Regards, Shannon Attachments:

The artwork is by Japanese artist Hokusai Katsushika, who is most well known for his woodblock prints. |

Nah, the image is part of the public domain, I believe. I did want to use another painting that had been published in the 1940's, but I couldn't find out if it was still under copyright or not. btw, you do realise that biko means pretty girl in Japanese, right? Oh really? I didn't know that. |

Oh really? I didn't know that. To be completely accurate it means "pretty child", but, since 90% of Japanese female names END in "ko", the suffix has become a synonym for girl. |

So if '-ko' is a synonym for a girl, does that mean that 'Bi-' means pretty? |
