Re:Re: Strategies (was: Re: Improv loops



I use looping for both.  In my duo, lumper/splitter, we mainly do improv 
soundscape/bleep/bloop with no rehearsals.

In my solo act I use looping for conventional songs.  I find it takes a 
lot more practice and forethought to pull off actual songs with 
looping since you need to hit  cues as well as subject the audience to a 
lot of time where you are constructing the song.  Some audiences 
seem to enjoy that aspect of it while others seem to get restless until 
you start singing.
