12/18/2005 - After alot of contemplation I have decided not to re-release all my old albums. I will however release "The Winds Of Mars" that I have finally put together.

I will most likely not name it the "Best of Dj D'Artagnan" The first time around I only had a small following in Australia and most of the known universe has never even heard of me.
