I find the way this topic has gone to be really interesting. One thing I've noticed is that if you tend to be somewhat conventional in your music, the LD list is not your audience for the most part. I've been to a lot of the loopfests and it always seems like the odder stuff gets the lion's share of the attention. I think I notice it because I always wonder, "Why didn't people dig X's performance? I loved it!" Now me, I like weird odd stuff, but I'll be the first to put on a Cheap Trick album if the mood moves me. I just notice that anything that leans into pop or traditional music seems to be tossed aside in favor of someone blowing into a $6 electronic toy trumpet made of dayglow green plastic. (Hi RICK!) Art can be very hard to experience. Entertainment never is. Art can be entertaining. Entertainment can be artistic. It's a big mess. Enjoy it. I'm not saying either approach to looping is better. I just see that the things that get the most interest tend to be more "cutting edge." Be prepared to see a lot more Lidellesque stuff as looping hits the mainstream. Franky, I didn't think the video was amazing, but I loves me some good beat boxing. Hell, I hired a looping beat boxer to perform my wedding ceremony in Sept! I hope he's not too artistic for my guests. Mark --- Jeff Kaiser <loopersdelight@pfmentum.com> wrote: > Hi Andrew, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
