A Peice of Music for 365 Days or Sixty Seconds A Day

NPR had a cool piece on composer David Morneau.  If you follow the link you can listen to the story and a few pieces of his music.  Basically he he set out to create 60 seconds of music a day for an entire year.  He somehow succeed.  OK, digging out garage band samples and the Amen Break might be a little cheap but it had to be hard just due to the nature of life if nothing else.

Once I get settled I want to try something similar only more like a piece of music a week.  I have no trouble starting it is finishing that is the problem. I will give it a go when I able.

End of Week Links or Lot of Wires In Boxes

You can find this strange delay effect and other DIY audio goodness at WRONGROOM.

Along the same lines is this great video I found.  Analog sequencer in a cigar box is cool enough but controlling other circuit bent gadget is just beautiful noise.

From Kendall Scott is a Basic Guide to Understanding EQ.  A good graphics for visual learners.  You also can check out my EQ Guidelines & Free Tools.

Robin Schmidt’s Music Engineering Tools has a every practical and useful VST ptich shifter if you scroll down the page.  ANd check out the other stuff also.

Euphoria Magazine has this list of strange and wonderful instruments.

Found this cool video on EtherBomb. The one man band is alive.

For those of you that want to turn back the clock and stopping buy the new versions of music software every and just happen to have a old ST in the closet should check out Tim’s Atari Midi World. A nice page on Cubase on Atari.  It is where most of this computer music business started.  It really is not as diffent as you would think after such a long evelotion.  I now a lot of people still use it squence.  Why not?
