Howdy Rizznites. This is the place where I publish my CDs. That's right! Free downloads for you leaches out there.
Right now, I'm trying a new distribution method called Hamachi. You can read more about it right here, but here's the directions on how to download the stuff quick and dirty:
Download Instructions
1) Go to www.hamachi.cc and download the latest version here.
2) Next (once it's completely installed and set up), click on the following URL: file:////5.4.205.233/djRizznSTTMC for the latest CD, or right-click and save the files from the detailed track listing below.
1 & 2) Hamachi Sucks. Download the zip file here for the full cd.
3) Listen to the MP3s
4) Comment and/or email me and tell me what you think.
New Single as of 10.09.05 : Basket Case (Kool Kannon Remix)
Soundtrack To My Car : DJ Rizzn (download full album here)
Contains tracks by DJ Rizzn, Meigh, Laurent Strickland, Louis Hebb & Peter Hitt.
1. My Fury: A remix I did for a contest that ended up coming out quite original. The vocals were uncredit public domain, all instrumentation is my own.
2. Southeast: A mix I made back in 1999 or 2000, with some assistance from Peter Hitt and Louis Hebb. My first foray into acoustic djing.
3. End Takes Care: Another song that was acoustically inspired by Southeast. I get accused of mocking a lot of 80's music with this tune.
4. Take You There: A mix I made to go with the lyrics written and sung by a girl named Meigh. She's got a good voice and mysterious writing style. She told me that she wrote these lyrics when she was a little girl, and used to sing it to herself when she was on the playground.
5. Far North: Yet another song inspired by Southeast. As you can tell at the time I was a little hard up for song titles, but the song itself is fairly original. It has a familiar ring to it for most people, they can't quite place it where they've heard it before. I don't know why since it's completly an original piece.
6. Yellow Ghost: This is what I like to call electronic emo. I'm not sure where the style came from, but once again the lyrics and singing came from the beautiful talent known only as Meigh.
7. Discernment: Of all the songs on the CD, this one had the most collaborators and spent the longest time on the shelf before I finally ended up producing it last year. On vocals is a girl that made my six month stay in Ft. Worth in 2001 non-maddening, Lauren Strickland. The author of the lyrics is a great friend of my old Dallas clique named 'Rissa Winland. Of course, I did the mixing. The original recording was so bad that I shelved it until I could improve my mastering skills enough to make a good version of the song. I think, all in all, it turned out great.
8. Leylines: This is actually the title track off of Riz Mix 2: Leylines, the one that had the blue porno chick on the front (for you long time collectors, you know the one I'm talking about). The ending of it has actually been modified from the original CD, as the voices used to be up in a higher pitch to allow for a smooth transition into Halcyon On and On, but I think as a standalone it sounds better with it down low.
9. Slimee Is a Flatworm: I've dated some crazy-ass women, but this crazy song was dedicated to the craziest woman I EVER dated. Ever. I sang the vocoded lyrics on the CD.
10. Outback: the only song I've ever mixed using a Digeree-doo.
11. Black Beans: a mashup of a couple obscure ambient tunes.
12. You Didn't Think I Was Listening, Did You?: a hidden track from the CD. I recorded it off a hidden mike in Ricky McGill's office (Ricky is a partner in AACS).

FlyDLUX Collection
Over time, it has become apparent that I will not stop getting requests for FlyDLUX information. I have collected here all the FlyDLUX info from my blog, and I will occasionally add things as I learn about them. It is important to note that I'm not the best source of information, but I do understand that I might be the only one for most people. I don't mind discussing it with the occasional random caller, but keep in mind I don't keep in close contact with Rabbi Finkelstein any longer.

Virus Warning from Matthew Johnston
Today at work we got slammed by a new virus, this is no joke, not a chain letter.
I don’t care if you pass it on to anyone.
It will be mailed to you by a friend, someone already infected, with you in their contact list.
It doesn’t do anything too bad that we know of, but, what It does do is mail itself to everyone in your contact list, every 30 min. on the dot. This can be quite annoying, and it will fill up your mailbox on the server until you can receive no more email.
When you get it, it will come as an attachment, the name of the attachment will be "prettypark.exe"
But it wont look like an .exe file. It will look like a .zip file
DO NOT BE MISLED
Don’t open the attachment, it will infect your computer.
It is hard to remove and most anti-virus software will not pick it up.
Just delete the message, and reply to the person who sent it to you
And tell them "Hey man, your computer is sick!"
If you think you got it you can send me an email asking me for help removing it.
Its tricky you have to go into the registry to do it

If You Have Already Opened Pretty.Park.exe
Mary, et. al.:
I do not normally reply to all with emails, but in this case I felt it appropriate.
PrettyPark.Worm (aka Trojan Horse, aka W32.PrettyPark) is an email worm affecting Windows 95, 98, and NT machines. Recipients receive a message from an associate and open the attached file, which many have reported believing to be an animation based on the popular "South Park" television series. (I cannot confirm this at this time.)
PrettyPark.Worm originally surfaced in late May of this year in France, and quickly spread across Europe and to the States.
PrettyPark.Worm installs a file named FILES32.VXD in the \Windows\System directory, and modifies the Windows registry key used to control how .EXE files are launched so that the .VXD file is used when launching the .EXE, insuring the infection is active.
When active, PrettyPark.Worm will attempt to email itself (the file
PRETTYPARK.EXE) to everyone in the user's address book every 30 minutes.
Also, PRETTYPARK.EXE will attempt to initiates a connection to an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channel every 30 seconds, where information about the infected computer may be retrieved covertly.
The online scanners from antivirus.com and mcafee.com, as well as most recently-updated virus scanners, will detect PrettyPark.Worm. Removal (especially when using the online scanners) is complicated by the fact that Windows is using the infected file, thus preventing removal.
A number of sites have listed instructions for removal of PrettyPark.Worm; however, in my own experience with cleanup operations this morning, the instructions given should be modified. Here are the modified instructions.
DO NOT attempt them yourself unless you feel comfortable working with the Windows registry.
1) Using regedit (which may be launched by selecting Start->Run, and entering "regedit" in the line), find the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\Software
\Classes
\exefile
\shell
\open
\command
For the value for the key listed as "(Default)", you will see >FILES32.VXD "%1" %*< (the value is that between the ">" and the "<").
2) Edit the value for (Default) to remove "FILES32.VXD" AND THE SPACE THAT FOLLOWS, so that the new value is >"%1" %*< (the value between the ">" and the "<", including the quotes around the first item).
3) Close regedit.
4) Exit to MS-DOS mode
(For the next steps, which all occur at an MS-DOS prompt, enter the command given between the quotes.)
5) "cd c:\windows\system"
6) "del FILES32.VXD"
7) "exit"
