Moving my blog over to shawnmativetsky.com

Dear friends,

With the recent update of my website, I now have the ability to integrate the blog directly into the website, so that is what I am doing; it just makes sense. I will no longer be posting updates here. Thank you to all of you for your interest in my musical adventures. Please click along to my website for the continuation of this blog in the future! If you would like to update your RSS subscription, this is the new RSS URL: http://shawnmativetsky.com/blogs/blog.atom

I hope to see you over at shawnmativetsky.com!

Thanks for the information, I just love instrumental music, I have collection of various cds like Transcend, Indian Core, Fusion Mantra, in which Indian classical instruments like Sitar, Tabla, Flute etc., have been used in an innovative way.
