What Is Music? Pimmon & Oren

[Chris Tourgelis <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

/delurk - hi!

Oren Ambarchi's CD on Touch is excellent - lovely stuff. You could say that
the guitar is the source of all the sounds and I'm sure some multi-tracking
if not actually dsp editing was involved in the creation of the tracks. Matt
Thomas definitely added computer treatments to the tracks he's on.

Live Oren usually crouches with his guitar in his lap surrounded by a gaggle
of guitar effects pedals.

He organises the annual What Is Music? festival. The url for details:

If you can find it (Mark at Synaesthesia might have it) check out the last
CD of the band he's in: Phlegm "Poppin' & Milkin". Cool stuff but hardly
"microsound".

Pimmon's stuff is also excellent. I'm currently getting into the ERS 12",
but the Meme CD keeps opening up in different directions so I'm still
listening to that. The track Paul has contributed to the compilation I'm
putting together (Oren's on it too) is awesome - but I would say that... :P
