Tape Op: The Book About Creative Music Recording

What magazines do you subscribe to, and why? TapeOp because it makes me feel less-inadequate about low budget recording. Because it attempts to distill all the vinegar from the varied and profound experiences of those greatest minds of cre...

Kaki King - New Song (Live) Kotaro Oshio - Tension Michael Hedges - Aerial Boundaries

Kaki King sent me a "personal" message today informing me of her new album "...Until We Felt Red". The only way to preview the songs in full is to install ActiveX to which I am morally opposed. I will find it on lunch and hear it properly (that...
