New Music

October 30, 2006

I’ve started in on some new music – looking at longer shifting drones … creating pieces, then mixing them so the soundscape changes.  Lots of layers and building to do.  abyssos CDs should be here any day soon – I can’t wait to get them out there.

Stun

October 26, 2006

Another busy week.  Marking is backing up again, thankfully the last lot for the year.  Must have been a hold-up ‘cos stuff that arrived at the Uni last thursday/friday didn’t get to me until yesterday – a bit frustrated ‘cos I’d cleared time in the weekend to work on it.  Oh well, just got to get on with it now.  Hoping the proof for the new Venus Vulture album will be with me soon – will approve it, then get the stack of disks soon after – then can start distributing them …

NIMH

October 17, 2006

I’ve been listening to the album The Impossible Days by Nimh.    A kind of busy type of ambient – lots of field recordings and voices.  Very stylish and engaging.  Another one I bought through www.ambientmusic.co.uk

Jerry

October 9, 2006

I’ve just finished a Jerry Lewis (auto)biography – Dean and Me – a very engaging, moving and entertaining read.  Amazing to think that their entire partnership was over almost a decade before I was even born.
