After a few listens, I'm starting to think this is one of the best CDs of electronic music that I've *ever* heard. In places there's so much going on that it...
... I agree. More improv! Maybe the performance could include small sections doing semi-composed pieces (like this year) as well as the whole "orchestra"...
Agreed; I think it's pretty stunning. ... It occurred to me that it might be interesting to ask someone who's listening to it, but didn't know anything else...
Been listening to the Arcs & Angles CD too. Very motivating stuff. And I agree with earlier remarks about everyone knowing their instruments, and everyone...
From my vantage point, DS2005 was best for the Saturday concert audience, and DS2004 was best for the musicians. So my humble suggestion would be to: 1) Not...
A few key stats for the month: 1313 different IPs accessed the site 125,764,838KBytes of info was downloaded (mostly Giles' video) 2127 visits were made to the...
Congratulations Jim! ... G. Neal Merrick Merrick Music Productions http://www.merrickmusic.com (615)335-6760 __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail -...
... my $.02 I agree, with the following exception. I think if we jam that much we will burn out. And conversely, if we DON'T rehearse that much, the concert...
not enough jamming this year IMO. The jams were magic in 2k4, and what I have heard of them is pretty good this year, too. They do in general suffer from...
I actually enjoyed this year more. I really liked working on compositions and getting them together--like one of those old musicals where they find some old...
I highly recommend that everyone, especially David T., go see MIRRORMASK while it's still in theaters (which, in SF, is just this week). It has by far the most...
... Looks like we get two showings in the London Film Festival at the end of the month. I'll try and catch it. (I've not seen Howl's Moving Castle yet...
... If we're very lucky, it'll appear at one theatre in Denver during the time I'm in New York City for AES and be gone by the time I'm back. Maybe I can catch...
... If each jam were to have a director like the prepared pieces do, then jams could be extended arx between prepared pieces. I missed the jams. If Doug could...
Dear Jeff, My package arrived. Thanks for getting it to me in time. Mark Jenkins is visiting me right now and I plan on making him watch the Arcs & Angles...
Hey Bill, ... Well, since we had no shows on audio help both times I brought my rig, I have already brought up the idea of bringing my own assistant next year ...
... Amen to that. For me jamming and socialising are practically the same thing: my favourite pastime. Getting to jam with you all is why I come - so I missed...
There should be a balance between jams and rehearsals of prepared pieces. Ideally, the jams would happen mostly early in the week, so people can get it out of...
I agree, Jam early jam often. But..... It really was nice being part of a larger whole. I had ideas when I came to DS2005 and I dropped all of them because I...
... I agree with you here, I guess I was considering the CD buying public as well. Considering all the music from the CD last year came from the jams, I'd like...
After years of road work and fair and festivals, having the front line set up and ready to go is worth more than gold. I'd be willing to kick in lot's 'o bucks...
Here is the company I belive did the sound for Lila Downs a couple of years ago. http://www.livearizona.com/ They had a full PA/monitors with 4 turbo sound...
