                                      INFO:
        Onyx is a tracking group dedicated to bringing you the best in
        trance, techno, acid, and goa trance the internet has to offer.   
      Founded by two members of chill, onyx exists in a co-relation with
        chill. This relationship allows chill members to release more main
        stream music styles whilst keeping their dedication with chill.
         Just no one in chill likes goa trance, so they wont bother :)

                                      WEB:
               Onyx's site is still recovering from it's face lift
      However, it's nearly finished, and new releases will become available
                           when they are finished.
                                    Check out
                        http://orbit.simplenet.com/onyx

                                 TALENT WANTED:
     We now have our quota of musicians, onyx wants to remain a small group, 
      not like kosmic, advance etc :) But, we are always looking for coders
           and artists. We'd like to a demo some day, can you help?
     Having said that.. the members list is growing, and more musicians are
    joining our cause. We will accept only the best artists, so if you think
                 you have what it takes then drop us an email.

                                  DISTRO SITES:
    Currently onyx must be the only mod group in existance not to have any
     distribution sites. Simplenet does provide great service, but only if
          you have are using an ISP with fast connections to america.
    So, do you know of anyone offering ftp, http or bbs space thats willing
            to accomodate us? contact Jrb (jrb-onyx@netcomuk.co.uk)
