>>I know some of the people on the list like the Ex. I only own a few discs mainly with Tom Cora. And although not interested at first, I finally picked up a copy of the "In the Fishtank" disc with Tortoise for further listening. I also picked up a copy of "Instant". Does anyone have info about this release? It has some great guests Han, Ab, Walter etc. Comments? Was it only available through them? What other releases would some of you suggest, although probably not available.<< (Andrew) I don't have any info on "Instant" other than what's written on the cd. I like it a lot and it was (is?) available through Cadence (where I got mine). I also really like Ex Orkest's " Een Rondje Holland" (A Dutch Trip) which is the Ex as part of a 20 piece ensemble. It has a lot of the ICP crowd plus others such as Joost Buis, Jaap Blonk, and Michael Vatcher. A definite must if you have any interest in these musicians. It looks like the Ex is rereleasing a whole slew of old titles and and vergemusic.com is carrying them. They're good to deal with even though a lot of things have to be backordered. >>I am very excited about the Sonic Youth installment with ICP. << I didn't hear about this. Could you provide details? Cheers, John Threadgould

Since he came up infrequently in the recent posts about Alan Bloom's Closing of the American Mind, some of y'all may be interested in this general introductory article on Adorno, prompted by a recent collection of his essays on music: <http://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/14/arts/music/14CONN.html>.

Mark Feldman
by Emmanouil Papagiannakis 13 Sep '02

13 Sep '02

hi, last weekend I saw a great show with Feldman/DeJoode/Vatcher, playing mostly free. Really intense with excellent communication between them. I had the feeling that a lot of the passages and phrases of Feldman were reminiscent of his Masada string trio contributions. I really had the feeling at some points that he was playing knwn phrases! So, I would like to raise a question and maybe people who have seen him more times and in different groupings might have a better insight: Has he been a big influence on the Masada pieces, marking them with his own style, or is it that the Masada string trio has influenced him so much that even in a relatively free setting he sounds close to it? manolis

Re: Tibetan Chants

Are there instrumentalists that have used these >chants as a guide for improvisation? Without knowing what aspects of the performance and/or recordings were most compelling for you (though the sounds are extremely different, most of the use of percussion and wind instruments in Tibetan chants are as striking as the vocal approaches themselves), it's not a sure thing, but some of the circular breathing reed players like Evan Parker and Ned Rothenberg sometimes achieve similar effects; some aspects of what Pauline Oliveros and Stuart Dempster do, both as solos and as members of Deep Listening Band, also have resonance with Tibetan chanting; some of Elliott Sharp's denser pieces seem similar to me as well; and many of the electronic works by Eliane Radigue are also related (often directly as she is quite involved in Tibetan Buddhism). For me, very few Westernized uses of throat-singing by vocalists (& I'd include most of the more poppish "World Music" recordings in this category) have the depth of the Tibetan religious stuff. A couple of improvisors, Sainkho Namtchylak & Jaap Blonk for two, use some of the technique from time to time to very different effect. -- Herb Levy P O Box 9369 Fort Worth, TX 76147 herb(a)eskimo.com

Elephants again
by Robert Pleshar 12 Sep '02

12 Sep '02

Hi all, I saw a little link for a video on cnn.com, but you have to subscribe to actually see the video and no way am i paying for that. the blurb is: Elephants playing xylophones and drums? In Thailand, the pachyderm orchestra is set to release its second CD. I assume this is the Thai Elephant Orchestra, but the mulatta website had no info. Anyone know anything about this? It was one of my favorite discs of last year. rob
