Website is Down
As most of you are now aware our website was shut down this past weekend for reasons which still are a bit unclear. We have been receiving a large amount of messages via MySpace.com and other forums on which we are registered about the site being down. Thanks to all for the messages, and of course the site will be back up soon ;)To make things easier, we decided to answer the most common questions from the emails, here in our blog.
The main question we have been receiving is what happened? Basically the reason the site was shut down resulted from certain transfers that were supposed to be made when we moved our site to a new server a couple months ago. Apparently the site was transferred but the domain was not. This lead to issues in the ownership of our domain name. Once we no longer owned our elucidatemusic.com domain name, some enterprising company immediately snatched it up and was attempting to sell our name back to us for a considerable amount of money. We contemplated several methods of handling the situation, and the solution finally came from our webmaster who really handled the whole situation for us very well. He spoke with the previous hosting company and explained the situation. After hours of discussion with the hosting company he was able to get our elucidatemusic.com domain name back.
Another question we have received a large amount of, is when will the site be back up? According to the hosting company it should be up within 1 or 2 business days. So that should be tomorrow (Tuesday).
Additionally many people have been asking us if we had stopped making music. No, we have not stopped making music under the name Elucidate, we will continue providing mixes, shows, songs, remixes, and other fun stuff for all of you until we either die or become so senile we can't tell the difference between a turntable and our feet.
Hope that answers everyone’s questions about the site being down. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Cheers,
Elucidate
