Internationally acclaimed UK artist DJ Andy Hunter released the six-song EP Life on May 24, to critical acclaim. His follow-up to 2002’s full-length album Exodus is a new collection of his signature ambient sound, supported by a greater use of guitars and live stringed instrumentation, and offers sonic images of Christ bringing new life to barren wasteland.

Hunter says,

For me, being a DJ isn’t about being trendy. It’s an act of worship and inviting people to enter in. The focus is on God. It’s about leading people into new places with music they haven’t heard before

Hunter’s breakout success came with 2002’s Exodus, which produced major film, TV and video game placements for his songs ‘Go’ and ‘The Wonders of You’ on The Matrix: Reloaded (trailer), the movie The Italian Job, ABC’s Alias and the Black Hawk Down video game, among others. Hunter recently performed at the Microsoft-sponsored opening night party for Midem in Cannes, France, and he was featured at the Digital Entertainment Anywhere Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 launch event in Los Angeles, hosted by Microsoft Corp. chairman and chief software architect Bill Gates.

AFA chief has work ahead tackling “Team Jesus” climate

Air Force Academy superintendent John Rosa “said he will approach problems of religious intolerance with the same urgency and seriousness he has applied to the academy’s sexual-assault scandal and troubles with alcohol abuse. “

Whew… that’s a relief. It’s good to know that someone is finally dealing with we Christians using the severity we deserve. We’re a real problem… right up there with sexual-assault and alcohol abuse! I don’t know whether to feel angry or flattered! And what are these alleged incidences of religious intolerance?

The general called DeBerry’s posting of the “Team Jesus Christ” banner “clearly over the line.”

He said academy commandant Johnny Weida was wrong to send a “Commander’s Guidance” e-mail to cadets saying “you are accountable first to your God.”

Rosa also said campus fliers supporting Mel Gibson’s controversial - and some would say anti-Semitic - movie “The Passion of the Christ” were not appropriate.

This issue,” he said, “is very insidious.”

Oh yes, clearly. (sarcasm courtesy of my jaded subconscious)

“When I say we have a problem,” Rosa admitted to the ADL, “a large majority of people don’t agree.”

Our Democracy at work. The view of the majority is clearly wrong and should therefore be subjugated to that of the minority!
