yeah, Steve Reich
Yeah!!!! Steve Reich.
His amazing piece Music for Mallet Instruments, Voices and Organ had as much impact on my life as hearing Gamelan music or the invented percussion of Harry Partch. It just opened up new vistas. It's funny but that piece is not mentioned much journalists talking about his music but I think that modern electronica enthusiasts (abstract, IDM, minimalist techno, glitch, etc.) would just love this piece that so heavily forshadows what is going on today in modern electronica. Wish I had time to remix this myself but I"m trying to finish this new record and produce the Y2K6 International Live Looping Festival and there just isn't enough time. Thanks for posting, though................it really sent me down nostalgia lane to think about his wonderful artistry. |

Wow
I'm moving to New York in August and this is the best way I could imagine immersing myself there. Thanks for the information!
