Welcome back again.
First up, check out this review for our most recent release, Lapis' A Path Toward Solace. It's from IMPROVIJAZZATION Nation and you can click here to read it.You'll have to scroll down, but it gets the site's Highest Recommendation. New podcasts this week, first the Painful Leg Injuries conclude our latest series of 8bit Gameboy music, Composed Gameboy with CGB 6. El Plan De Aguavodka's latest, the very cool, electro-acoustic improv piece 3.5 Millimeter Metal Lollipop. When John uses the word "metal" in that title think more piezo than heavy. Barry Seroff features the work of singer/accordionist Kamala Sankaram in Sleep as the concluding episode of his Self Accompaniment series. Enjoy. I'll be away for a bit, so there will a break from weekly updates for the next two weeks, the podcasts will return on October 6th. Until then, take care. Tuesday, September 08, 2009 Welcome back, hope you enjoyed the Labor Day holiday.This week, we've got our latest podcasts starting with The Painful Leg Injuries' latest episode of their third Gameboy music series, CGB 5. The PLI have focused on compositions creaded using the LSDJ software, on a modified Gameboy with full pitch control. This comes thanks to the GetLoFi.com's LTC 1799 precision oscillator. Enjoy. Next is Nature Imitates Tape, the latest podcast from El Plan De Aguavodka. This makes it two weeks in a row that John has released something austerely beautiful, low-fi but better for it, and completely organic and not the least bit contrived. It's another field recording that receives John's processing, It's fantastic, reminds me a lot of David Tudor's work. Also this week, Barry Seroff returns with the latest episode of his Self-Accompaniment series featuring the synth looping-vocoded work of Jeff Cedrone, called Low. Until next week, take care. Tuesday, September 01, 2009Update 9/1 This week our latest round of podcasts begins with the latest from El Plan De Aguavodka, called Vacuuming the Glitter from Your Sleepy Head. A processed recording of a music box recorded through a pickup, that features some gorgeous, delicately handled sounds, mind-blowing.Also this week the latest round of Barry Seroff's Self-Accompaniment series, this time featuring the work of Nate Trier, this piece is called Self Improvment. I do think that spelling is intentional. CGB 4 is latest episode of the current series by The Painful Leg Injuries of composed works for Gameboy. In other news our good friend Marco Oppedisano has been jamming with drummer of late, and he's starting to put out some new material check out this clip from a recent set in NYC. Marco wrote "...Just letting you know about a video I just posted on You Tube from a performance I did with percussionist Martin Urbach last Sunday at the Chair and The Maiden Gallery in NYC. This is just a short excerpt from an hour set." Click this link to check it out.
