Review: East meets West Looping Festival 10/13/02



Just a quick note to post about my experience at this fine event. Sorry 
for the
delay, but I was out of town and without Internet access all last week and 
came
home to find several hundred l-d messages awaiting me...

Although the turnout was disappointing (there were maybe 8-10 people in the
audience...), the performances were very nice and I had a great time 
meeting and
talking with Michael, Rick, and Sunao. 

It was interesting how loops were employed by all three of these 
musicians, yet
the approach, and the musical styles which emerged, were so wildly 
different.
Shows that it's not the tool, but the musician. I got a lot of great 
ideas, and
came away very encouraged and inspired.

I thought several of the listmembers were from the Bay Area, so I was kind 
of
expecting a loopers-delight contingency. Other then the performers, I 
think I was
the only one. That was a little disappointing.

Oh yes, and thanks for the CDs, Rick & Sunao! That excellent music made 
the rest
of my stay in San Jose a lot more pleasant!!

Michael wrote this about the event: 
> suano's music was wonderful, 

Yes, absolutely. Reminded me of an ocean, with washes of tone and texture. 
I just
wish I could have seen what he was doing on the computer!

> and rick was rick, always an inspiration as to what can be done in 
> this world of looping.....

Absolutely agreed. And an encouragement to people's musicality in general.

Greg
