Playing With Machines
I'd rather be Playing With Humans, but... My wife and I are living in, and building, a passive solar, off the grid, home, music & art studio, and retreat center, 20 miles from the nearest city, in southeastern Wyoming. Consequently I'm playing with machines... If you have an interest in alternative building, living with the planet instead of against it, and playing music, you are welcome to contact me at brian@9mileskid.com To see some pictures of the project, go to www.dawneaglewoman.com and see the Earthship Page...
All of the music below has been performed by myself on the guitar, bass, some drums, and the Korg Karma Synthesizer (sometimes playing solely with itself). Most of the pieces are one-shot, first take recordings... none of the mistakes are overdubbed, although occasionally I'll turn the volumn down on a big one, just to ease the pain... and many times it's the first time I've heard the piece, improvised all at once.
