jeff
fennesz "field recordings" is one of his least inspiring cds. its a
collection of odd tracks
if i remember correctly.
try endless summer
venice or live in japan.
or the 2 song ep plays.
that latter might be my favorite.

Subject: Re: [microsound] oren ambarchi stuffs
i like oren's work generally. and i like that gear
stands out in the open. a lot of what we do depends on
what we can afford and how far we will tweak it. the
rafael toral i have heard did not seem to use effects
or computers much. i have to admit i don't understand
the massive popularity of mr. fennesz however. i have
the so-called "field recordings" but find it mostly to
sound a lot like the grizzly fizzly drizzly stuff i
have made with guitar & computer in the first moments
that i don't find very interesting. (which is not to
say i haven't had some breakthroughs in the past
months...)

with the mention of oren ambarchi, i can't ignore
the opportunity to inquire if anybody else on this
list is taken by the work of rafael toral? I
personally think that "the violence of discovery,
calm of acceptance" is a brilliant record. I seem
to recall some discussion of the
ephemerality/desirability/subjectivity of "beauty"
on this list some time ago. I would argue that mr.
toral's work, as well as that of fennesz, and keith
fullerton whitman, manages to be "beautiful" and
intellectually engaging at the same time. Up until
recently, in my own work, guitar playing and digital
signal processing remained discrete practices. But, recently, I
purchased a new sound card and I am
now attempting to find something that works
utilizing both tools. Anybody else here a user of
audiomulch?
