@mrdankelly sleepytime gorilla museum in reply to mrdankelly #
@c_a_harebell http://t.co/oRM3JRfD #
Every bike tire pump I've ever bought is complete BS. The part under most stress made of plastic, so it breaks too easily. #
The only regret I have about not having TV is when it's Wimbledon / US Open season. Congrats Roger Federer! Unbelievable. #
I think this latest @djunto has produced some of my favorite results yet. http://t.co/sGUFi8gP #
@ergophizmiz I'm pretty sure @greencine has it. @dpnem in reply to dpnem #
Ho-lee shit! The new synths that arrived are HEAVY like a sledgehammer. #
I'm writing a few handwritten letters to go in packages that will be going out – haven't done that in a while. #
Forget it, I guess I'll upload to @soundcloud later. Their upload speed is basically nil right now. #
@Gurdonark Heavy in the "HEAD FOR THE SHELTERS THE MOTHERSHIP IS LANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" kind of way. in reply to Gurdonark #
RT @mrdankelly Ernest Borgnine was awesome. #
@tobiasreber That's actually quite exciting to look at. I'm glad there's at least one girl involved! I'll bet you're proud! in reply to tobiasreber #
A good practice today incorporating the new drone synths and glass harp. Unconvinced this is a good setup though – More play required. #
@Gurdonark It's just a wine glass + water. Not anything fancy like an actual glass armonium. in reply to Gurdonark #
"If you could only play a record once, imagine the intensity you'd have to bring to the listening!" -Derek Bailey #
@Gurdonark I'm working on a challenge to perform live w/ glass harp for a concert representing the @disquiet Junto in Denver-Difficulty high in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark No restrictions on looping, but I would like to avoid looping and laptops if possible. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark I'd like to keep it simple (don't want lots of glass onstage) Still thinking though options. in reply to Gurdonark #
I need a new internet service provider #
Spend an hour and a half on the phone w/ tech support only to have them tell me to upgrade my service. That after upping my bill w/o notice #
Ubiquity of blue-eyed white people in marketing is a sign of the apocalypse. http://t.co/1pc2DBZk #
Ubiquity of blue-eyed white people in stock photos on every website I go to is a sign of the apocalypse. http://t.co/Uli0CZy0 #
These people might either kill you and eat you, or help you with your router. #
Leaving you as hollow as they are. With a working router. And no soul. #
Dear glob. These are the stock photos belonging to the company I'm *fleeing to* – Is this really the only other option? Pale blue emptiness #
Two crappy companies competing for a tiny market they don't really pay attention to otherwise. Is that really competition? #
I haven't yet found a non-white person depicted on the website for centurylink. Mustn't there be one? At least one? Isn't that the standard? #
Good grief. http://t.co/SXye0qnH #
@CenturyFuck alright, I demand that you fistfight @ShittySkybeam whoever wins is my new ISP, and needless to say, whoever wins, I lose. #
Buddha Reduction is being featured by FM3 @buddhamachine as their remix of the week! http://t.co/7oRNVpLf #
@tobiasreber I'm not sure I would do a performance with just a laptop, but I have no huge problem with it as an audient. in reply to tobiasreber #
Buddha Reduction is the remix of the week for @buddhamachine's @soundcloud: http://t.co/7oRNVpLf #
"Reducing the Buddha" article in @disquiet by Marc Weidenbaum about Buddha Reduction: http://t.co/YXlrAXJo #
I just want to say that the fact that Skybeam raised my monthly rate w/o notification and then throttled my upload speed makes me furious. #
@Gurdonark If Skybeam were a person, I would feel tempted to punch him in the face. I would refrain of course, but I would feel this. in reply to Gurdonark #
@PBK_ I'm also using synths. New to live performance and new to synths! Adventure time! in reply to PBK_ #
Very soon a gin and tonic & some fresh melon will cool my temper. A telephone call to Skybeam's competitor will also help. #
C. Reider – July 5, 2012 at Bizarre Bazaar (live) by @vuzhmusic via #soundcloud http://t.co/AmZjxe6R #
@newpractice Did you forget the apostrophe? Painting's about painting. in reply to newpractice #
Oregon Public Broadcasting spot on circuit bending: http://t.co/mLVkQILP I remember when I 1st heard of this in the 90s – blew my mind! #
Qubais Reed Ghazala is the name to know. #
@birdsbreath Yup! in reply to birdsbreath #
Here's a recording of my live performance last week: http://t.co/0IWgjsGE Video coming soon (although I've heard it's very dark video) #
@snooksarmy Pretty much! ;0E in reply to snooksarmy #
I found a very promising (and simple) signal chain for the resonant wine-glass set up for the Denver Junto in August. #
@djunto I was going to say something about that, very interesting! in reply to djunto #
@cinchel Are you playing w/ Andrew? Say hi to him & Ensemble Eric! in reply to cinchel #
A brief article on the auroral sounds associated w/ the Northern Lights: http://t.co/rOWnFbO5 via @c_a_harebell #
@DaveSeidel We have two. Just arrived. in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel If I can figure patching out with 2, then we can string all 3 together in reply to DaveSeidel #
@jinjurly Dude, seriously. That's pissing ME off and I don't even make fanfic. in reply to jinjurly #
@jinjurly There must be some sort of special way of collectively and creatively giving the middle finger to Random House for that. in reply to jinjurly #
@DaveSeidel Some sort of modulation helps. And long delay. in reply to DaveSeidel #
@Gurdonark Most video games' gender representations are beyond unrealistic and shitty. No surprise that many of them are misogynistic too in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark Also, I guess it just proves that the misogyny in the game was marketed at the right audience. in reply to Gurdonark #
@jinjurly agreed! and agreed! in reply to jinjurly #
@dpnem I was just thinking today about how all English people sound like Alan Partridge. in reply to dpnem #
@jinjurly Well then. in reply to jinjurly #
A true hero of political bullshit. RT @repcorygardner members debating repeal of #Obamacare Dems expected to join GOP in vote to repeal #
@Le_Berger Let me be the first to give you jack shit. in reply to Le_Berger #
@snooksarmy Shave them pussy. in reply to snooksarmy #
Make it public. RT: @_stretts: may have discovered some plagiarism in some netlabel music #ughhhhh #
Make it public. RT: @_stretts: even worse is that the perp released the album commercially #netlabel #plagiarism #
@DaveSeidel Great idea about stabilizing the glass, I'm going to give that some thought. @falsereactions in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel I was using Audible Disease convulsion, which has some weird modulations to it into a 2 second delay. Might double contact mic. in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel Doesn't the Drone Lab have a side input? in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel Might also try one of those ribbon piezo mics. I have some but I haven't put them together yet. #
@DaveSeidel Might be easier to get a good contact with the round glass than the flat brass discs. #
@falsereactions Hmm, I suspect duct tape won't hold it down securely enough for my preferences. in reply to falsereactions #
@DaveSeidel Cool. It must be the same deal. Is the breadboard labeled? There's a kind of guide for the novadrone printed on the board in reply to DaveSeidel #
@c_a_harebell @snooksarmy Total lie! she was just telling me what an asshole Snooks is, and I was wondering what she was talking about??? in reply to c_a_harebell #
@jinjurly @Skud I suggest countering the power structure with intentional subversion. But that's me. Subversion is the opposite of power. in reply to jinjurly #
@Skud Sorry, too many g&t's and the stuff I've been obsessing about spills out! It's probably not germane to your conversation. in reply to Skud #
Got any non blockbusters coming? RT @DenverArtMuseum #YSLDenver is gone but #VanGoghDenver is coming this fall! http://t.co/spkePJOa #
@Le_Berger … and jack shit IS especially special! in reply to Le_Berger #
@Gurdonark I think there's some springs down there. That's in the part of Colorado where every little town has its hot spring. in reply to Gurdonark #
Very important netlabel connectiveness commentary on the new Acts of Silence article: http://t.co/0oYZPR0b #
@dpnem Spain has a very admirable acousmatic scene, happy to enjoy it from afar! in reply to dpnem #
Please stay out of my head Paul McCartney songs. Like, forever. #
@jiyahkelly Maybe I'm Amazed, sadly. in reply to jiyahkelly #
@jiyahkelly It makes me say to myself "my glob, I could be thinking of any song in the world, and I'm thinking of this one?" Do not want. in reply to jiyahkelly #
@jiyahkelly Your mileage may vary, of course. in reply to jiyahkelly #
Squeeking brakes on a passing car merge delightfully w/ wifey playing on the music stuff in the next room. #
Wifey keeps shaming me with how much better her practices are than mine w/ the same equipment! #
@dpnem I'm happy the audience put in the effort to listen through the quietness. Yes, I should've worked on live improv long ago. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Also thanks! in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem It actually sounds pretty good when turned way up. It can move some air (and leaves room for air movement) in reply to dpnem #
Good grief. RT @danspock You knew this was coming: Bible museum planned for Washington, D.C. http://t.co/2ZaqsmJk Blue-eyed Jesus ahoy! #
@Gurdonark Thanks. That was my first ever floaty ambient track. '91 in reply to Gurdonark #
Occupational hazard: finger cramp from playing wine-glass @djunto @mystery_bear @falsereactions #firstworldproblems #
@tobiasreber Have you already checked @ubuweb ? in reply to tobiasreber #
@DaveSeidel New synths! in reply to DaveSeidel #
Thanks for wasting your time & not doing anything that will actually do damage. RT @repcorygardner #FullRepeal of ACA happening in 15 mins #
@dpnem In the cassette days I had an "alternative soundtrack series" I wanted to do a silent film, but didn't make it past the 1st in series in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem We did an alternative soundtrack to Altered States. It was a learning experience, but I don't like it, won't re-release it. in reply to dpnem #
RT @BoingBoing Letter to Chuck Close from the digital artist whom he threatened with a lawsuit http://t.co/Mi5zFon3 #
C. Reider is the remixer of the week at @buddhamachine's site, go give it a listen! http://t.co/uQM9rE3M #
I like that @MMFlint is encouraging people to go on a walk. Thanks Mike! Have to practice now, will try to walk later. #
Plans are coming together for a live collaboration between C. Reider and Mysterybear. Or as they say in Twitterlandia: @mystery_bear #
So if you want to hear it, book your flights to Colorado for the August Denver Junto now! 😉 #
Suggestions for very inexpensive but good powered studio monitors? My Roland MA-8's are lousy… they're ridiculous, really. #
Quick! Everyone, let's go to bed, so we can wake up and go to work tomorrow!! #
@tobiasreber Thanks! I've seen some good prices on KRK, but haven't looked at reviews yet. in reply to tobiasreber #

@hecanjog Nice! Say hi to Andrew & Ensemble Eric. in reply to hecanjog #
@DaveSeidel Nice! How are your new pieces of kit? in reply to DaveSeidel #
No netlabel is forever. Archive what you love. #
Best article about shit you'll read all day: http://t.co/9pwUePaZ The Copro-Lites would be a great band name. #
This whole "enigma of John Roberts" furor is ridiculous. A conservative goes against the grain once & he's a fascinating mystery? Bullshit. #
I find much to agree with here. RT: @jupitterlarsen: Discogs sucks! Most of the info on it about my stuff is wrong. The site is useless. #

@ENE_RVA That sounds great! in reply to ENE_RVA #
Junto ideas: for live show I think I might try a pre-recorded glass piece plus live glass playing mixed together. #
For the newest Junto project (need to re-read the rules) I might use the specified release and combine samples from other CC releases #

Weekly Twitter Update

@dpnem Yes it's overpriced. I have an old OS 9 version of it that I used w/ my early computer music like this: http://t.co/SgiVuop1 in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I'd find it hard to think of Tore Boe as pompous. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem That's too bad. He's good at what he does, but his stuff is far too smooth for my taste. in reply to dpnem #
Huh. The Escala netlabel has let their domain expire. Another netlabel down? @escalared #
@dpnem Yes, he's great. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Also, why do musicians call their tunes "sound art" sometimes? I suspect they gravitate toward the 'cooler' term – accuracy be damned in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Marketing is stupid. I've died a little bit inside everytime I typed "dark ambient" into the descriptors at Vuzh in reply to dpnem #
@happypuppyrecs @dpnem it makes no sense to change the nomenclature when the musical approach is the same. in reply to happypuppyrecs #
Working on the webpage for the new C. Reider release. Wondering what my planned blog post is going to say about it. #
@dpnem Oh, I promise you, it's experimental. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem That is a nicely designed netlabel website. in reply to dpnem #
I waited until after reading everyone's bad reactions to Prometheus to watch it with lowered expectations today. Enjoyed it. #

Dude. Gin and tonic with fresh Japanese cucumber from the garden. Dude. #

@Le_Berger In music "know-how" means you can skillfully act within acceptable limitations of Western music tradition. That's not what I want in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger That opinion exists outside of Western musical tradition. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger Yes. Is skill and technique necessary? How about listening and experimenting? in reply to Le_Berger #
On David Grubbs, Don Campau, @ubuweb, cassette culture / mail art & netlabel archiving. http://t.co/3ugRRm8j #
@Gurdonark @Le_Berger Skill is being able to work within a structure. Subversive music doesn't acknowledge that there is a structure. in reply to Gurdonark #

@Le_Berger *SNORT* in reply to Le_Berger #
Tool are irrelevant. Jeph Jerman makes beautiful music with rocks and sticks and stuff. @Le_Berger #

I don't know how the audio & video recordings turned out. #
A couple of people afterward were describing the visions they had while listening. Sharks in a desert, a tunnel of lights… #
RT @snooksarmy Wish good luck to @vuzhmusic, my favorite cam girl, as she performs her first ever public pole dance to experimental music! #
Thanks Radere & Andrew Weathers (and Ensemble) for rocking FC! @falsereactions / @andrewweathers / @ensemble #
@pwdreser BAH HA HA HA!!!! in reply to pwdreser #
Yes, there is a good quality recording of my performance last night. No clipping – which is amazing luck because I did not check levels. #
Another very good rain. #
@cinchel Yes. I'll probably need to either buy a Soundcloud upgrade, get a new SC or if a netlabel wants to release it tomorrow, fine. in reply to cinchel #
@djunto Wow. I like that you were worried that this one was going to be a failure! 🙂 I'm researching ways to participate in this project. in reply to djunto #
@djunto I'd say worry is a comfortable state to be in, if you're working in experimental art. in reply to djunto #
GREAT Freudian slip on @morningedition this morning from Jean Cochran: "nation's midsection" became "naked midsection". #

@alextemplemusic Is that a Korg MS 20? in reply to alextemplemusic #
Now to figure out what to do with a glass harp for the @djunto Denver performance. #
Also this weekend, we might go check out the Dorothea Lange exhibit at the Loveland Museum. #
Ah Skybeam. I don't recall getting notification that my monthly bill was going to shoot way up. #
I just called Twitter, SoundCloud and RSS the holy trinity of #netlabels in an email. #

@disquiet 🙂 Environmental interaction FTW. in reply to disquiet #
@DaveSeidel @falsereactions @djunto Carl was talking about pre-recording, a plausible strategy. Glass onstage is a dangerous proposition. in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel @falsereactions @djunto Then again, danger is exciting! in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel That's another challenge. I was surprised at the fragile stuff Cheryl Leonard managed to travel with. Long pieces of dried kelp! in reply to DaveSeidel #
@DaveSeidel @falsereactions @djunto The temptation of performing acoustically has also crossed my mind. in reply to DaveSeidel #
@falsereactions @DaveSeidel @djunto I've also considered composing something that I could play along with. in reply to falsereactions #

I'm probably going to do a cull of my SoundCloud tracks. #
Dude. That is a serious storm. I just saw that it was hammering Denver only 1 hour ago, and headed due North at what must've been over 70mph #

@dpnem Ah. The important people don't use it, therefore it's not important. Classic. in reply to dpnem #
I think maybe academia views Creative Commons in the same light as Esperanto. #
@Steve_Hamann I think we do need to. I think raising the awareness of CC & netlabels benefits each individual working in that framework. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann Otherwise it's just each man for himself, which is a bullshit model, IMO. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann The benefit of cc over copyright is the removal of an archaic beaurocratic system between artist & user. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@dpnem Music departments are stewing in their own juices. in reply to dpnem #
@Steve_Hamann In practice now, yes. It is my view that should change and it's something I've been shouting about for years. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann Hm. What do you feel is missing? in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I am 100% with you, there's a cultural shift that needs to happen. I think that's why @dpnem gets worked up about it. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann The culture needs to change. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I've been thinking about undertaking an appropriative project. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann If you take off the CC license that just leaves a void. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann Yes mine too. I console myself about that thinking that if I couldn't sell my work (back when I tried) then they can't either. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann There's the benefit. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I agree. CC is a starting point. Getting culture to shift in CCs favor is part of the solution to the problems you see. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@dpnem @Steve_Hamann I agree, and I hope that will change. I don't know why musicians don't actively listen to their peers. in reply to dpnem #
@Steve_Hamann I have, very happily, had artists use my work as a basis for their work due to CC license without invitation or permission. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann Example: http://t.co/Wiz6CpYX in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@dpnem I don't think everyone has to be that pure, though. I love lots of copyrighted commercial stuff. in reply to dpnem #
@Steve_Hamann No, I'd never heard of him! in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann Actually, I think the first time I met @mystified131 was when he appropriated some stuff I had on my site for use (pre CC) in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann We'll have to fix that. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I dunno what the trick is there either. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I'm sure it's just the normal stuff, social networks, email. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I try to take P Christopherson's advice about being nice & interesting to everyone – hard for me because I'm a jerk by default in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@dpnem Everywhere. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem The better question is why isn't anyone listening to it? in reply to dpnem #
It's one hundred and HOW MANY degrees? Holy crap it's hot. #
Wifey's doom-ambient-noise track is almost done. #
13 drops and lots of lightning. Tomorrow there will be even more fires. #
Someone stop me from buying more limited edition handmade synths. #
Another practice. It still sounds much better when it's the wifey and I together. Interplay, listening, variety. #
@Gurdonark Yes, I won one in a giveaway, and now I'm acquiring more. They can be found at various prices. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark After my long hiatus, I seem to be looking less for computer music and more for performance strategies. in reply to Gurdonark #
RT @c_a_harebell DOOM MOTHER FUCKER DOOM #
@Gurdonark There is one on July 5 and then if the @djunto Denver concert actually happens then that would be August 19 in reply to Gurdonark #
@jshell Seriously. Noise people shouldn't suffer from gear lust. Contact mic plus junk should equal awesome. So WTF is wrong w/ me? in reply to jshell #
@Gurdonark I'll just sing "Thank you Hollywoooood" in between refrains of "Here I am! Rock you like hurricane!!!!" in reply to Gurdonark #
@dpnem Linear Obsessional, Green Field Recordings in reply to dpnem #
Rumor is, today's the day we'll all be unsurprised that SCOTUS is as political as the rest of gov't. Doing their part in election 2012. #

@ENE_RVA Oh yeah, it's already dark there. in reply to ENE_RVA #
Hm. Samples of the new one by Fort Collins' Biota sound kind of good, and also kind of "normal"? Kind of? Never 100% certain about them. #
Funny how the people in Colorado doing interesting stuff tend to not focus much on Colorado as their target audience. #

Wow. Okay, not only has my website gone down, @dreamhost itself is totally inaccessible. This happens too often. #

I started to write a drone music ethos, and then it changed into a subversive music ethos, and then it collapsed in on itself. #
This is where the people who run @soundcloud live http://t.co/i24aT0LJ #

Something about free netlabels distributing via Bandcamp seems weird. Probably just me though. #

I feel a twitter litany coming on. #mustresist #
I suspect I am becoming a bit more radical in my views of music. This obviously affects what I want to make and what I want to listen to. #
No. I will resist a twitter lecture. Instead I'm going to the brewery to read my book. #
@Steve_Hamann Tempt me not! Just dwelling on an idea of subversive music.Was about to damn guitars & realized I was flogging a dead horse. in reply to Steve_Hamann #

@Gurdonark Yes, I'm going through a soundcloud purge right now. LJ is a major contrast-one of its downfalls. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark Thanks for the tweet. Abstract music "about" things is getting some thought lately… so far surviving my re-alignment. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark LJ was ridiculously flawed, but I cannot say I miss any social network more than LJ at its peak. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark Yes… however, I think we diverge in my aversion to pastoral poetics and attraction to relational meaning. in reply to Gurdonark #

Yup. RT: @Steve_Hamann: @Le_Berger A lot of purveyors of the ambient swing to the sucking-on-mama's-teat side of things a little too often. #
@leonrosado @Steve_Hamann @Le_Berger I think ambient is a fine over-arching term, but it has to be qualified. in reply to leonrosado #
@Steve_Hamann @leonrosado @Le_Berger I do have to say that people who describe themselves as fans of 'ambient' usually don't like my music. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Le_Berger Depends. Is it unreleased because it's not your best material? If so then let it be forgotten (it will be eventually anyway). in reply to Le_Berger #

Man, a lot of netlabels have really ugly, hard-to-use websites. #
Tiny, dark colored fonts on a black background, dark blue links on black background, no release date info = frustrating netlabel experience. #

@countrymarxist @dpnem I think the main point of my tweet is that I'm increasing uncomfortable with the very idea of background music. in reply to countrymarxist #

@Steve_Hamann I gave them the benefit of the doubt that I missed the coverage, but I also haven't ever seen any @thewiremagazine in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann @cinchel I think if they purport to cover "adventures in modern music", how can they ignore netlabels? @thewiremagazine in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann That's no excuse. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann My thought is that there is no other print magazine in which the lack of netlabel coverage stands out more. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann For better or worse they are the key print publication that is covering the 'kind of music' that many of us are involved with in reply to Steve_Hamann #

I'm not a fine artist, I'm a very coarse one. #
There needs to be another Auzel album. (NP: Auzel playing with a looper and Convulsion pedal by @audibledisease) #
@jinjurly In the 80s I was equally fascinated by sulky new wave girls & sulky heavy metal girls. The latter were slightly more approachable in reply to jinjurly #
@jinjurly Though neither group was equally fascinated with me! :/ in reply to jinjurly #
Trimpin's new work is about the Holocaust. His work has been so joyous and occasionally whimsical up until now, so I'm curious about this. #
RT: @liminallistener: Trimpin's new work "Gurs Zyklus"! Seattle, May 17-20. http://t.co/zx0w5LH4 #
Down economy-museum revenue down across US, & yet Denver opens three new museums this year: @HistoryColorado, @Still_Museum & Anschutz Coll. #
This is one hell of a search term that just led someone to my site: https://t.co/WzEPR2FN Hope they found what they were looking for. #
@tobiasreber I was deeply into them in the 90s / early 00s. Now they bore me, except that Deathprod one & Substrata. in reply to tobiasreber #
In case you missed it: Ambient music by Encomiast "gravity is very compelling" http://t.co/zfXv8eMG #
Me too. RT @jshell Still pretty happy with how the "Southern Muscle" tape turned out.

@Steve_Hamann Something that rigorous is tough. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I was doing mini reviews throughout last year. Not monthly though. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
@Steve_Hamann I have listened to almost nothing for most of this year though. Will remedy soon. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
A couple of tweets about the Nick Cave talk tonight over at @liminallistener. #
I'm too big for one twitter account. #
This quiet time after America is asleep and before Europe wakes up. #
Got my second @audibledisease pedal today! Gruhhh…. #
Seriously, the less you have to rely on flakes, the better. #
Alright! RT @leonrosado: bought my laptop (Macbook Pro 15") today thanks to all of you #eternallygratefull #
Tonight we're going to see Ed Ka-Spel & the Silverman in Denver. Tomorrow, the same! 😀 #
@mrkvm They haven't been through town in a little while… in reply to mrkvm #
If I can find the time this weekend, I'm going to give that new Junto a shot. #
@denverartmuseum The new exhibition from the Herbert Bayer collection is fantastic! I'm looking forward to studying it some more. #
Tom Ellard talks games: http://t.co/aj02RVXI #
Ed Ka-Spel & the Silverman last night, good show, tiny (but disagreeable) crowd. Going again tonight. #
… also, Carrie got 1 of 4 hand written sets of song lyrics by Ed Ka-Spel that he threw into the crowd! #
Gah! I know what record I'm putting on next! RT @chris_carter_ WTF! "Just read it was 30 years ago this week that Trance was released" #
@saffronslumber So you'll be able to see it? We're just out of its path. If we go over the mountains I think we could see partial. in reply to saffronslumber #
Just spent over an hour dealing with an elicensing / validation process instead of making music. Thanks DRM. #

@nszcz @cinchel I can think of so many exceptions. Sunn O))) would be a high profile one. in reply to cinchel #
Transcoding Backlog would be a good name for a band. @soundcloud #
Speaking of http://t.co/tE7ASdCp I'm still looking for adventurous artists to stake a claim in between ambient and noise music. #
Must mow lawn. Do not want. #
Still available at http://t.co/vRaoiKcm RT: @t0rphy: De Fabriek / C. Reider / Implicit Order, The – Triple Occupancy – http://t.co/zQWRVViu #
@disquiet With these data we can predict when Junto will involve the entire population. in reply to disquiet #
Given the search terms I find in the statistics for http://t.co/k7XBdgKR, I expect to be plagiarized in many underwhelming college papers. #
@g_stefanou Oh, ha ha! This will give me a reminder to listen more! in reply to g_stefanou #
Sure would like to find the sombich who sold my email address to all these spammers. More than a decade with minimal spam & now blammo. #
@mrkvm Hiya! #
@mrkvm Likewise. Longmont, huh? I know of a few folks doing experimental noise out in the Longmont area. I'm just up the road, in Berthoud. in reply to mrkvm #
I have to keep telling myself that a website update as big as this can't be finished in one sitting. Coding for hours longer than I ought. #
@mrkvm I was too busy with the sound art exhibition I curated in FC to catch most of it, but I did go to Morton Subotnik & Leslie Flanigan. in reply to mrkvm #
@mrkvm Listening is the first order of any sound practicioner, so you're on the right track. in reply to mrkvm #
@mrkvm I really wanted to see Biosphere, but I had friends to see at the Denver Noise Fest that evening! in reply to mrkvm #
Deinstallation (moving pedestals) 4/30/2012 by @liminallistener via #soundcloud http://t.co/bZTI7f9j #
My Top 3 #lastfm Artists: Robert Wyatt (41), Kate Bush (10) & Genesis (6) http://t.co/tvPbaNRK #
Thinking about what the last year means for my personal practice. #
If art is ego made real, and meditation is reducing or quieting the ego, then "meditative art" is as internally conflicted as "noise music". #
@computerneix I agree. in reply to computerneix #
@darrenjharper Hey man, got any plans in August? @disquiet @falsereactions #
G&T #
People rallying to help @leonrosado gives me hope for the netlabel community! #
@darrenjharper Nice! It'll be good to actually meet. We'll be in touch. @falsereactions @disquiet in reply to darrenjharper #
I don't remember ever wanting to go to North Carolina. I don't foresee ever wanting to go there in the future. #
I'm embarrassed to admit how often I use an operating system that stopped being developed in 2002. http://t.co/WREiSCyN #
Colorado's gay civil unions bill was killed (not brought to a vote where it would've passed) with ugly partisan games. http://t.co/MP58w6Wl #
Not that Nick Cave-The one with the soundsuits RT @DenverArtMuseum DAM announces major Nick Cave exhibition summer 2013 http://t.co/QuaSlji8 #
@cinchel Who did you use for pressing? I couldn't find any place that would do under 200 when I pressed Amy's Arms / Metacollage. in reply to cinchel #
@cinchel Do you already have my 12"? Wanna trade? in reply to cinchel #

@jinjurly We keep talking about making a quilt out of old concert Tshirts that have gotten too ratty to wear. Probably won't. #lazinessRULES in reply to jinjurly #
This coming weekend I promise I will work on the new Vuzh Music release that I put off last month! #
@_stretts I haven't heard it yet, but Restive from South Africa emailed saying he has a new one out. I have liked his stuff pretty well… in reply to _stretts #
Ed & Silverman are touring, but not as the Legendary Pink Dots? http://t.co/610lbtF8 #
@DenverArtMuseum I actually only know this Nick Cave because I spent the last year researching sound art for an exhibition in Fort Collins. in reply to DenverArtMuseum #
Just bought tix to 2 nights of Ed Ka-Spel & the Silverman -next week! Woot! The Dots are like our version of the Grateful Dead. Or something #
"it sends a message that those who pray are favored members of Colorado's political community" // yup http://t.co/kWrgIung #
@tobiasreber @eeeskildsen @hecanjog Which one's the viking? in reply to tobiasreber #
Lotsa pictures of Cheryl Leonard & instruments http://t.co/HGneSoCx from performance at Sound Through Barriers http://t.co/k7XBdgKR #
I've been giving lots of thought to possibilities since @disquiet has nudged me to perform live. #
@mystified131 I suppose the same nudge could go your way. You & I are both non-performing composers. in reply to mystified131 #
@jshell Nor even reality. in reply to jshell #
@disquiet Dude! Yeah! in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet Not to mention 16 year old me constantly repeating the intro to Metallica's "Orion" in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet … and "Damage Inc." in reply to disquiet #
We should make our OWN sound cannons and bring them to protests. #
NP – Pentemple LP on vinyl. The devil is helping me clean house! #
Archiving, archiving, archiving. Backing up, backing up, backing up. #
It's probably a bad idea to think about starting a small annual sound festival. #
@MarcMcNulty Colorado. in reply to MarcMcNulty #
Brawny caucasian Jesus makes the cover of Watchtower magazine! #
Again! #
Aphex Twin's SAW II on the turntable (just came in the mail today!) #
