Thanks for the support everyone!

Just posted mudfuzz's awesome article up and I'm still working out more features from various builders from ILF and I'm trying to expand to builders we maybe don't hear from on this site.

The review sessions will begin tomorrow, sadly I left my SM57 at home so soundclips may take a bit longer to come up :mad:

But I've had plenty of time with the first three I'm reviewing so the process should be quick, I just need to snag a screwdriver for gut shots :idea:

Just an update, for those who haven't checked it out yet, I just posted an interview with our very own McSpunckle featured, its quite entertaining to say the least so check it out!

An interview with Matt from Noisemaker should be up in a day or two as well so keep looking for that.

And tonight I'll be posting my review of the ISP Technologies Decimator, not the most exciting thing in the world but maybe someone wants to hear about it :idk:

Well I feel like I should try to reach more than just ILFers so other non-ILFers can get to know some of these excellent builders.

I'm thinking of posting on other forums but the only prominent one I'm familiar with is Harmony Central and I must say from my past experience there from a few years ago, there's a ton of elitist dicks, maybe it's different.

Any others I should check out?

You might be more successful trying to build support from other bloggers. A good way is to comment on other blogs with links back to yours, though you have to substantially contribute to the conversation, not just linkspam.
Here are some:

Well the blog has kept me plenty busy!

I'll have a review and clips of the Catalinbread Montavillian Echo up Wednesday or Thursday! Then it's on to the Noise Invaders!

For now how about you all enjoy an interview with Brian of smallsound/bigsound!
