Re: livelooping. organic
Your project is really interesting Phillip! Thanks for sharing it.
I'm with Andy Butler when he says that this group was created originally
to talk about looping music in general
........not live looping specifically.
Naturally, out of this came a group of people who were more interested
in live looping than in
looping music per se. A lot of them, including me, are pretty active
on this mailing list.
but this particular thread has been with those people and started out
because I specifically talked
about what had happened at recent live looping festivals.
However, I want to go on record that I support the discussion of ALL
musics that involve looping or inform looping.
This is just a thread and we are NOT trying to define a mission
statement for this community.
That's very important to stress, I think.
Your approach is fascinating and I'm sure we can all learn from what
you've learned on your journey.
If truth be known, it was the repetitive, parts oriented quality of West
African and Indonesian musics
that led me here in the first place. That's a whole lot of looping and
not a single piece of technology, save the
acoustic instruments that they play. I want to be able to talk about
that here, too.
I hope you stay and keep contributing.
respectfully, Rick Walker

Im sorry if this ends up being a double post...it seems that more
often then not I don't seem to recieve my own posts to group...
anyway, live creation of music using midi recording devices played
live is the hub of my current setup. and this thread has really
re-ignited my interest within a group who didn't feel i was still part of.
My work is contructed on a custom midi controller , Korg ESX, ER, and
EMU MP7 along with a host of other tweak gear...its all unplanned and
live in realtime, and i dont use a laptop / mac setup, its all hardware.
