September 3rd - Planet Of The Loops

This edition of the Planet Of The Loops' bi­monthly looping series
features Derek Andrew Orford (Thin Buckle, Look People) and
Andrew Aldridge (Sarah Slean, Kathryn Rose) on guitars, treatments
and (of course) loops. If the word "Frippertronics" means something
to you - don't miss this episode of The Planet's looping improv series.

Between Sets CD - "Evening Star" by Fripp & Eno (Editions EG)
Speaking of "Frippertronics", this 1975 collaboration between Robert
Fripp and Brian Eno (who introduced Fripp to the tape looping system
he later dubbed "Frippertronics") displays the delicate ambient side
of looping on side 1 (which we'll hear) and the dense, aggressive side
on side 2's "An Index Of Metals" (which we'll hear a bit of).

Coming Tuesday Sept. 10th - Wally Jericho & Michael Rockwood

James Johnson's Sept. 10th show has had to be rescheduled for
November. The good news - Wally Jericho *will* be performing
and will be joined by fellow looper Michael Rockwood, who
has not graced the Ping's stage since the 2nd Anniversary show.

It's a night of electro-acoustic explorations with a passion for
the sweet spots as guitarist/loopist Michael Rockwood joins
the mighty Wally Jericho on trumpet, bass, samples and loops.
Both artists are expert with "Boomerang" looping devices in
creating floating ambience and thoughtful walls of sonic goo.

recorded live in Toronto in 2000 at The Ambient Ping,
sound:escape and dreamSTATE's Sunspot Studio.
