Operation Ivy (band) Members
Operation Ivy was the eighth series of American nuclear tests, coming after '' Tumbler-Snapper'' and before '' Upshot–Knothole''. The two explosions were staged in late 1952 at Enewetak Atoll in the Pacific Proving Ground in the Marshall Islands. Background The Operation Ivy test series was the first to involve a hydrogen bomb rather than an atomic bomb, further to the order of President Harry S. Truman made on January 31, 1950 that the US should continue research into all forms of nuclear weapons. The bombs were prepared by the US Atomic Energy Commission and Defense Department aboard naval vessels, and were capable of being detonated remotely from the control ship Estes.

Twotone Drumsticks
Ryan Gobbe (born 1980), also known as Mieli or Twostone, is an Australian electronic musician. He studied Music Production at Southern Cross University and graduated in 2000. Mieli Mieli's music has a downtempo quality, and features traditional synthesis mixed with "clicks and cuts" -type sounds. Texturally, the music is varied, with both sparse ambient-type songs, and other more complex and gradual musical layering. Further characteristics are throbbing bass and crackle of ongs such as"Fly-over" and shuffling gentle house tones of "Eighty-hour Sequence". Further description of the music has been made as fluttering and beautifully intricate, shimmering minimal electronics with a deep dub pulse that will delight fans of the likes of Pole, Vladislav Delay and Mille Plateaux. Mieli's debut album ''Version'' was released in 2004 by Australian independent record label Feral Media. It generally received favourable reviews and relatively significant attention with coverage on nationa ...
