Nick Grainger, a young college student working on an archaeological dig in Egypt, accidentally activates a gate to a different universe. He, along with three of his companions, are thrown into the ancient alien gateway system between parallel worlds. Lost in the multiverse, they must search for a way home. On their journey, their gateway opens into strange new worlds, similar to their Earth, but in different times and in places, where life has been changed by one simple event in the course of evolution. It is on one such Earth, they arrive in Egypt, not as it was in the days of the ancients. Now, it is a place where a technologically advanced race of gods rule. Nick is claimed as a host for the god of death and the afterlife, Anubis. He and his friends flee through the gate, but Nick harbors a dark secret. Anubis still inhabits his body. As the group travels through the multiverse, they begin a search for a possible way home, located in the fabled Atlantis.

Musicians are always quick to adopt and explore new technologies. The fast-paced changes wrought by electrification, from the microphone via the analogue synthesiser to the laptop computer, have led to a wide range of new musical styles and techniques. Electronic music has grown to a broad field of investigation, taking in historical movements such as musique concrète and elektronische Musik, and contemporary trends such as electronic dance music and electronica. The first edition of this book won the 2009 Nicolas Bessaraboff Prize as it brought together researchers at the forefront of the sonic explorations empowered by electronic technology to provide accessible and insightful overviews of core topics and uncover some hitherto less publicised corners of worldwide movements. This updated and expanded second edition includes four entirely new chapters, as well as new original statements from globally renowned artists of the electronic music scene, and celebrates a diverse array of technologies, practices and music.

Before the time of books, computers, and recording devices, history was passed down, by word of mouth. The rich histories of so many people were told in songs, and stories. This was the way of Native American tribes. By reliving these stories and songs, we have the opportunity to bring life back to the ancient spirits that created them.
