Matthias Grob is already a pioneer in bridging the gap between the old and the new, he plays with rhythm and feedback together. ...but yes, it would be very nice to hear him trying out some of the "newer" techniques. It would also be nice if Andre Lafosse would let some of his glitchy rhythms fade out once in a while, while building up a wash over them. To make a split between feedback-looping and sample-looping maybe helps in discussion, but there's actually not a distinct barrier between those two styles, other than the one produced by lack of imagination. With new technology, there's always the opportunity to make "old" music quicker and easier, and usually that's the first use it gets put to, but there's also the possibility to make a new music that no-one heard before, that's something I find interesting. andy butler ps Recently I've been using feedback in a different way, using rapid drops in feedback level to replace small sections of what is essentially a "sample" based loop.....so that's feedback, but it's hardly "echoing".
