Evacuation for @AndrewMichler and @newpractice from the hot and dangerous High Park Fire. Hoping for the best. #
New iPod shuffle has a voice that announces the song info. It sometimes seems surprised at what I'm playing: He Can Jog!?! @hecanjog #
Also: weird pronounciations! Eye-anise Zeena-Keys #
I'm catching up on netlabel listenings and having more than a few experiences of "what in the hell drove me to download this?" #
@dpnem You could but it'd be incomplete. in reply to dpnem #
@tobiasreber Form is a subjective cultural construct. Nature makes fine unformed music. in reply to tobiasreber #
@dpnem Yes, however this lineage is unavoidable. It is what it is. in reply to dpnem #
@tobiasreber Where is that border? in reply to tobiasreber #
That new release that I mentioned by He Can Jog is really good: http://t.co/cIpVMGh2 #
@Steve_Hamann Oof, that's a harsh criticism. I could barely stand that show, except for the season & a quarter that it was alright. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
Oh shit. I just realized that Mitt Romney reminds me of Jack Shephard from the show Lost. No wonder I think he looks like a creep. #
@Steve_Hamann Then again, that tweet could describe, say "2001: A Space Odyssey" in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@jinjurly That looks yummy — even though I love fernet by itself. in reply to jinjurly #
Many water-laden airbombers flying overhead. I suppose I should try to record one of them. #

A good sound practice session. A terrifying sound. I need a bigger mixing board. #

@mrkvm Dude, sadly I know what you mean. in reply to mrkvm #
@mrkvm Last show I went to, there was a kick-ass chick who went and confronted every asshole who was talking… still very distracting. in reply to mrkvm #
@mrkvm It didn't used to be so bad. I'm not sure what changed in the last 5 years or so. in reply to mrkvm #
New release on Vuzh Music is live, official announcement tomorrow. #
@mrkvm Okay, actually, now that I think about it, I was complaining about this back in the 90s, so it's probably always been like that. in reply to mrkvm #
@dpnem Geez, no I missed that. Thanks! in reply to dpnem #
Day three. RT: @LarimerSheriff: #HighParkFire is now at 36,930 acres. (that's 58 square miles) #

@dpnem I don't know if there's too much benefit to it though, other than a backup in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I guess in general I'd prefer people come to the website, because they're more likely to listen to more than one release. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Archive is great for a single release, but not so great for nudging someone to get more than one thing. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem It goes without saying that yes, you are a rare bird that will do that. in reply to dpnem #
Surprised at how many no-derivative CC licenses there are for netlabel releases. #
@dpnem Yeah, I know! in reply to dpnem #
I'm formatting a bunch of mini-reviews, will probably publish on my blog this weekend. #
@djunto I had been thinking about remixing some tracks too… in reply to djunto #
@djunto I hadn't specifically looked there. in reply to djunto #
No derivatives = a monologue. There are other CC licenses that allow a dialogue. What are you afraid of? #
Tonight, I am remixing a track for the Implicit Order. It is going in a different direction than I had planned. Intuitive composition FTW. #
Remix done… ended up prettier than I wanted, but hey… Off to the pub for a pint. #
@djunto Yes, they almost seem like remix "stems" or sample food. in reply to djunto #
BEWARE: Town is full of soulful guitar-jangling folk singers. #
Apparently a few people are having issues with un-zipping the new release on Vuzh Music by Jeph Jerman. Look for a fresh file later tonight. #
@alextemplemusic I was attending a symposium on sound art at SAIC. I'd love to go back, but no plans. in reply to alextemplemusic #
The #highparkfire is now rated the most destructive in state history. At least 112 homes have been destroyed, 1 dead, 20% containment. #

43’41” for Chris Reider

Monday, 11 June 2012

Jeph Jerman is a deservedly well-respected figure in the world of experimental music. His 35+ year career has touched on many interesting paths, from industrial noise to freakout skronk to his more recent interest in interacting with man-made and natural objects to produce quiet acoustic sound environments. His practice is about “what happens when we listen”.
–
Vuzh Music is very happy indeed to release this set of drones, two pieces based on gongs and one from an e-bowed psaltery.

Next Year Geometry

Monday, 11 June 2012

I’m a little late to post this notification, but I’d like to announce a new node to the ever expanding line of in-between experimental music housed at the Dystimbria netlabel.
–
Every release on Dystimbria samples from and builds upon the previous releases, the idea is to find a space to occupy between ambient and noise music. Anyone can approach me if they want to participate.
–
The newest artist to do so is David Nemeth, who uses all previous Dystimbria releases to cobble together his stupendous “Next Year Geometry”.
–
This and all other releases can be downloaded for free at Dystimbria.cc

@Steve_Hamann My thought is that there is no other print magazine in which the lack of netlabel coverage stands out more. in reply to Steve_Hamann #

Gravity Is Very Compelling

Monday, 14 May 2012

The April release from Vuzh Music is by the Utah composer Ross Hagen known by the recording name Encomiast.
–

–
This dark, atmospheric plunge into an unending abyss was composed as the backing music to a staged production of the play “Eurydice”. The artist describes: “The play is retelling of the Orpheus myth from the point of view of Eurydice. The piece attempts to roughly parallel the play’s 3-movement plot structure, moving from our world, to the underworld, and finally to the tragic meeting of the two.”
