All About Roadkill;
Okay, Roadkill was originally a band I founded. It consisted of me, Murray, playing rhythm guitar (both acoustic and electric), and performing backing vocals and all electronic elements (keyboard). A friend of mine Michael (now artists/skateboard demo) as the lyric writer, and bassist. A pshycho chick called Devina who played electric guitar, and the drummer/vocalist/acoustic guitarist accurately nick-named "Dexy". Together we burped out several funky tunes, blew many a speaker, killed many a P.A., destroyed many a drum-kit and got busted for making too much noise on a regular basis.
Those were the early days, we were all really young and just wanting to make some noise.... I do recall actually getting $25.00 busking in the main street (for a whole 15 minutes or so), but other than that and a failed shopping centre gig we didn't make it to the public scene. Soon examinations at school began, and the band quickly lost interest and broke up. Michael and I still used to jam on a regular basis, but thats as far as Roadkill goes. Michael and I did write a few other more electronic tracks including Metallica and Pantera remixes under the name "Plastica", and briefly performed Metallica covers under the name "Gothica", but none really made it.
So Roadkill remain dead and buried for now while we all pursue or our lives - we may re-unite and actually professional record our tracks... but unlikely.
After a few years Roadkill soon became my "dunp" site... at the time I didn't have an account on an ISP that I could stick stuff, so I used FortuneCity. Stuff on the site included MP3 versions of a few songs Roadkill made, now only existing lost in cyberspace, and a few cool applications I hosted as a mirror to the main site, these included the DOS6-6.22 update, Microsoft DOS networking, the disk sources of Microsoft Windows 3.11, and the Calmira application - which made Windows 3.11 look mostly like Windows 95. Mostly harless stuff, but it appears FortuneCity turfed the lot of it, all well.
So, in conclusion - this site is dead.... funny that....
What you can expect in the future is a redirect to my new band name "Ultima-Nova" (electronic Music), another band I am associated with called "Too Far Gone!", and my DJ stuff under the name "NKX". But I seriously doubt Roadkill will re-emerge anytime soon.
Catcha in a few years
