Have no fear, brethen. The cannot loop like
us. They have no insert and multiply. They cannot time-stretch like a
repeater. There is no footpedal for the akai.
Let them pave the way for us to take over the
world.

Subject: Bjork loop sample
shenanigans
While non loopers may not generally understand
the loop concept/sound, it seems to me some in the media, especially
those who describe music in a way we may act upon ( ie go see, or go buy
) can distinguish it. The might not yet know it's a loop, but they're
happy with the idea of the 'sample', and occasionally use
it to describe sounds they can't actually see being played.
From the UK paper the Guardian today, review of
Bjork at the Hammersmith Apollo ( nee Odeon )
"Bjork is joined by maverick long time
collaborator Leila for Nameless, an unearthly swoon of refracted wails,
sampled live and played back to create a choir of keeing Bjorks"
( a 'plex sampler is it I wonder ? )
I'm worried now there might be a 'live sample'
crowd somewhere to contend with. Them with their max'ed out Akais, could be
nasty.

ps - I've already copyrighted 'An unearthly
swoon' to descibe my loopjohn-ra, before you ask.
