They're pretty atypical of what I normally do, but on CT-Project releases we assign ourselves themes designed to push the envelope of our regular routine, and the theme of that particular compilation was to use ONLY found material. On the first track, <http://www.music.columbia.edu/~cecenter/mhl21/ct/TIMNEL~1.MP3> I limited myself to sampling only from an old public domain recording of Beethoven's Fifth, but approached the end result microtonaly. I really like Ligeti, if you hadn't guessed... The reason I brought these pieces up in my discussion with Caliban is that they're both constructed ENTIRELY of samples, but the samples are nothing you'd recognise. I also have a track up at <http://www.music.columbia.edu/%7Ececenter/mhl21/ct/vid_obj/vid_obj.html> that is built entirely of sounds sampled from a bicycle. I thought I was being really original, but another guy on the project, Todd Madson, used a bike for his too! > >However, one of the cuts is in fact hidden... tracks 1 and 9 seem to >link to the same piece, and you have to guess to get to the secret second >piece! <http://www.music.columbia.edu/~cecenter/mhl21/ct/TIMNEL~2.MP3> >Still, you should get the webmaster to fix it ... Morgan? Are you there? We've discovered that the links to several tracks on <http:///www.loopxchange.com> go to the wrong places. I'm still bound by a slow modem, but I'll be switching to cable on the 30th! Hooray! >but it's worth the hunt. I'm glad you like it. You might be interested in another project that LD listmembers participated on at <http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/58/source_product_compilation.html> which is a 2 CD concept piece on which the participants each submitted a few minutes of source material (both original and found) for a sample pool (Disc 1, 'Source') which we then used to construct our tracks for Disc 2 ('Product'). It's Matt Davignon's baby, and it should be out on CD pretty soon, but can be downloaded now! -t
