Thanks to rhthesinner for changing my artist name to Troxum for me! Now tag stuff should all be in order. I've uploaded 4 tracks. Megafauna, Apojove, Perikrone, and Red Bird.

I'm making a new dmusic page. I don't want to put up tracks under Jan-Tosh anymore. Updates later.

Okay so I've been focusing too much on my myspace page recently. I'll be sure to update dmusic with more new music soon. I put up a recent track I've worked on called Megafauna.

Bluenevus did a wonderful orchestral and piano arrangement to Craters. With the strings, woodwinds, I think that's how Craters is meant to be. Thanks again Blue.

I’m unsure at first, but I see him jumping around like a fool. It does look fun. We’re alone here. Tycho Crater is for our amusement. He just made a bound. 100 meters at least. Soaring above the shiny gray. I track him against the black sky. He falls past Earth’s marble. He lands and looks back at me, hoping I’m impressed. I give a thumb up.

I put my best foot forward. A small poof of gray dust shoots out where the boot lands. I stomp again. Poof.

He gestures to me in the distance. I shield my protected eyes from the sun and the bright dust on the ground, reflecting like glass. Earth hangs low to the horizon.

He puts his hands on his suited hips still watching me. I’ll show him. I fall down on one knee. It’s a slow purposeful motion. Like I’m underwater. My knee kicks up gray. I feel muscles charging. They’re free here. I’m free here. Everything in me shoots to stand.

I jump. I fly. So does he. We meet halfway and he grabs me. Pulls me around. The crater spins under me. Slow motion. I see his eyes through the tint. They’re smiling.

And we fly.

"Come on just let go and fly," Alzur said. He nodded to the white fuzzball next to him. The fuzzball looked at the gravitomic ice fields speeding down hundreds of meters below him with dismay. They were blue and sparkled.

"But I can't. I'm afraid to fly on my own," Mobas said, clinging to Alzur's large perfectly round furry body.

"I'll tell you the experience is quite unique," Alzur said. "Absolutely Plutonique."

"What do I have to do?"

"Just sing."

Mobas started ululating like Alzur, and the ice crystals far below resonated and shimmered and sent out pulses of energy that ran through his fur. He let go of Alzur and was lifted higher, hundreds of meters above the Pluto landscape. The sun was a blip in the sky. Suddenly he could see the city’s tall glass towers catching the starlight on the horizon. Mobas smiled and held his arms out. Argon gas crystallized on his fur as he went higher. Alzur dip a loop far below him. Mobas spun around and looked down and saw jagged blue ice canyons and he pointed himself downward and ululated and flew through them, close to the walls. He changed pitch and shot out like a furry cannonball up into the stars.

The album, Pluto/Charon Expressway, I'm working on is actually coming along really well. A friend listened to a real rough cut and suggested I check out some indie electronic labels and net-labels online and says he can easily see some being interested. I don't know if I'm really interested in trying that out. My stuff is still amateurish. I'd rather it was just all on here for free or CD Baby.

Here's a working track list. Writing this out won't mean much, but it feeds my ego and makes me feel cool that I have a 'working track list.' Complete with pretentious subtitles in parentheses.

Ixion (We are drifters where the sun feels cold) 2:56

Robotic Titan Marchers (And down into the valley) 5:47

The Martian Revolution is about a daring clickbot army that rises up and destroys the tyrannical human cities of millions, if you must know.

2003 UB313 is now named Eris, after the Greek goddess of chaos.

While it's nice for 'Eris' to have a real name now, I'm still mad at the IAU for taking away Pluto's planetary status.
