For James et al- RE: Again, Indian music- MIKO song GURU

Go listen to my song GURU at http://www.mp3.com/miko - I created the song
using only LOOPS (Sonic Foundry) and my voice.  Don't be turned off by the
thought that the loops were canned.  I layered the sound in order to
introduced complexity in the mode of "the sum is greater than the parts"...

Apologies in advance to the OT nature of the post, but seeing how Indian
music is currently under discussion, I thought I'd bring it up.

No looping content for this gig, unless you consider a tanpura to be a
manual real-time looper.  ;-)
