The loop-police will be by to revoke your looping license ASAP. Just joking, actually, I'd love to hear your CD, wanna trade? Your process sounds like it was a lot of fun, and it'd be interesting to hear the results now that I know the process! I kind of hesitate to call my new CD looping music as well, though it's the loopiest thing I've ever done. There's some real-time looping, a bit of "accidental" looping, one honest-to-god analog tape loop, analog sequencer loops, digital sequencer loops, drum loops, feedback loops galore and a whole lotta computer-based looping, but I'm not exactly comfortable with the idea of "looping music" as a genre. I'm not all that comfortable with the idea of genres in general. Nor am I that fond of Generals, in general.... Looping is a technique, and there's a million different ways to do it. If, as you say, you're enjoying the results, and the music is saying what you wanted to say, who cares how you did it. Anyway, e-mail me your address, and I'll send you a copy of my disc. Same goes for anybody else who wants to trade tunes. ____________________________________________ Dave Trenkel : improv@peak.org New & Improv Media http://www.newandimprov.com Now available: Admiral Twinkle Devil: Wabi Dub ____________________________________________
