I'm Tyrone Glenn Martell and this site is
the voice of my thoughts, the speaker of my music, and the output of my ....mmmm...whatever ...
let's move on. I live in
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada....downtown. Where the grass is green
and the girls are pretty..well maybe except for that 5 dollar whore that walks by every midnight
...anyway...Though it is great to live here where I can pretty much walk everywhere,
(I need the exercise anyways), I still would like to live in the country side
where waking up early morning, sipping your coffee by the porch, and listening to the birds singing.
...aahhhhh..can't go wrong with that.
***UPDATE*** See "AD LIB" update - Aug. 24, 2002 -
I attended Don Bosco
Technical College in Mandaluyong City, an exclusive all-boy school, where it has
helped me build my character. Where our Founder St. John Bosco has imprinted in our youthful
hearts.. "RUN, JUMP, MAKE NOISE..BUT DO NOT SIN".
The great camaraderie of
DBTC Batch '91
will forever echo in our lives.
I took three years of Mechanical Engineering before I migrated to Canada.
Landed here in April of 1994, and talk about "Culture Shock"! From being a majority to a
minority in just a day. We are pretty westernized back home..but it is not what I expected.
I have been an observer through my first few months..and I have finally learned how to blend in..
I let the government kick my ass, do nothing about it, and pay taxes.
And what the hell is this GST 900 percent tax bullcrap?..Oh yeah..I forgot..I have to work hard
because millions on welfare depend on me.
I tried to finish my engineering career at
Algonquin College, while working as a cleaner at a
Pool and Fitness Centre,....I just want to say to those who work and go to school full time..
I salute you!!. I totally know how hard that can be.
Here's the killer though...My 3 years of schooling back home does not count for transfer credits.
Apparently, the Math and Physics that I have learned are not recognized here..I think it
has something to do with the climate and weather...see..where I came from..5 and 5 equals 10.
Here...5 and 5 is 10 with a 75% chance that it might be 11 and a windchill factor of -15.
I still managed to complete one year..then my brain finally said....EENNOOUUUGGH!!!!...nnaah
actually I bought a car..and that was the last day I had money. I was out of school for a while..
then I tried MUSIC at Ottawa University. (Big Mistake)
I only lasted for a month...for a brief time in my life...music was not fun.
Then I tried computers ..actually I didn't really try..My Mother bought this old 286 piece
of crap from a yard sale. When I finally learned it's worth..I took it apart (coz I needed a paperweight)..did some reading..upgraded it...and I enjoyed it.
Attended
CDI College, and that was the best decision I have ever made.
I am finally able to mix my love for Music and my love for technology.
I now currently work for CDI as a Networking Instructor. Being able to share the knowledge is
really great. I have met so many cool people and personalities. I have met new friends...
and meeting new ones everytime. They are now part of the great musical stew in my life.
It has been a pretty cool ride so far.....but this time.. I am with my chick.

In conclusion, There so many people I would like to thank, though they are all just
jealous because the voices only talk to me. Thanks for checking out my site. I'll try to update
it as often as I can.
If we try to communicate our inner music with each other, I believe the world would become
a better place.
DENDEN
We moved and will be staying away from downtown.
Denden is my nickname,
hence the site denofmusic.com. My mother said, when I was a kid,
everybody calls me Glenn. But my brother calls me Den...maybe it's the cuteness of him being
a toddler and trying to pronounce my name...or it's that damn speech impediment..I don't know.
Elmusikero ("The Musicman" in Spanish) is my alias on the
internet. I have been playing guitar since I was 13. I think it was August of 1987 where I picked up
a guitar and said to myself..I would like to give my contribution to the magical world of music,
be able to express it's magnificent....aahhh screw it..I just wanted to get chicks.
I am finally able to express myself more and expound on the capabilities of my...ahhh screw it..
I still wanted to get chicks.
