Artist History I'm an amatuer guitarist and have been composing Midi songs since 1995. I've always enjoyed creating catchy riffs on the guitar and find midi composing a great way to take these "riffs" and create songs from them. I originally joined MP3 as Bob's Midi Jukebox (my web site title) but have since decided to change the name to something more "band-like". So the new name is "Sum of the Parts", which sort of describes my composing style (any song is a "Sum of the Parts"). Don't know if it'll stick but it's better than Bob's Midi Jukebox.
