| It was the summer of 2003 and MP3.com's active message board community was heating up as well -- with flame wars.
Along came Chaz Fanaro, looking to cut through the negative noise. He began to interview many of the musical artists who pitched a tent on the popular indie music forum. Others pitched in with questions of their own. July of 2003 could have turned ugly, but thanks to the interviews blanketing the forum, it became a home for insight and mutual respect.
The forums were wiped clean by Vivendi in December, 2003. The interviews live on.
I.M. Kulardenu
Artist description
Out of the sanctuary of a mid-west insane asylum comes The music of Kulardenu (cooler den you)... A tripnotic slide into the sense less and out of sync Alternative Blues music that made you expel bodily fluids... Remember this can be very therapeutic too! And let it be known the voices made me do this! The sweet sounds of LSD flashbacks have never flashed as brilliant as they shine here. I have not come here to bury the Blues! Just to drag it through the gutter where it must evolve and breathe again!

Press Reviews
Hey kids! Keep those cards & letters coming!From a fan: Hey man your mucic is so f**king cool. Please tell me how are ya doing this weard music, smoking a kg of opium before u start?????Please tell me are u trying to look like Einstein or Lincon I just cant figure it out, please respond to me soon your local fan Xxxxx. (x'Ed tO pRoTeCt tHe iNoCeNt!) Kulardenu always answers his fans mail: Dude!~ Thanx 4 tuning in! Oh and if your ears start to bleed in the next month or so I know nothing about it... As for the weird music and what is the driving force behind it, While I do not condone the use of powerful hideous drugs (at least not right at this moment)! I will admit some of this may be a by product of several Miller Genuine Drafts enhanced with the soothing ambience of peyote scented potpourri in the burner and just a small, very small whiff of a scented ammonia cap to provide clarity... And the rest just pours out of me! I know you may have thought head trauma, but no, that is my secret of weird out of sync tunes! Thanx again for listening in stay cool and check back soon I have other projects I am working on to rule the planet soon! Remember I.M. Kulardenu and U know it!P.S. The picture is of me several years ago I was going for neither an Einstein or Lincoln look! It is Harpo Marx the un-dead... very close likeness huh?

How would you describe your sense of humor?
I.M. Kulardenu & U Know It!
My current crop of T-Shirts consist of spectacular quotes "Wenches Want Me" & my current fav "Necrophiliac"! Anyone that really knows me can tell you that humor is the essence of my life. It's the thread that holds it all together! I mean if you can't laugh at other people who can you laugh at?
I.M. Kulardenu & U Know It!
Where the hell have you been?
Well I have somehow acquired a gorgeous ladyfriend that's 18 years my junior so I have been very very busy if you know what I mean?
Hi Les! Hope things are going well for you & Dixey!

I.M. Kulardenu & U Know It!
How did you first become interested in music?
The first time I heard Twist & Shout by the Beatles on a juke I was hooked. Man that sound kicked yo ass!
I went out and did my first performance on a corn broom (before air guitar was invented )!
See from the very start there was always Karoke!
What are your goals and what do you have planned for your music?
First I would like to quit procrastinating & finish up the library I have started!
As far as plans? Music is an outlet for me! It's fun! As long as I can keep it that way what could be better?
And where can you find a better medium to express your weirdness & NOT get arrested?
