trying to think of somebody...

I used to have this CD buy this guy who did all his music by tape manipulation. Like he would record one thing, like a violin for ex., and then make a bunch of tapes of it, then just go nuts with those tapes. Anybody have even a clue who I'm talking about?

frank zappa!

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 12:38 PM

no, although you can't go wrong with Zappa...

porkmarras · 07.24.2006, 12:42 PM

Everything smacks of wrongness around the name Frank Zappa.

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 12:46 PM

yeah, I go back and forth on Zappa. I always think I like him, but then I hear his stuff, and I'm just not a huge fan. I guess I just liked this idea of what he was doing, regardless of whether or not he pulled it off to my liking...

Cantankerous · 07.24.2006, 01:03 PM

Well make up your fucking mind. Do you like him or do you fear being seen as lame in the eyes of the all-knowing Uncle Porky?
For the record I was being a smartass the first time around.

Like I said, I go back and forth. If somebody asks, I usually say I like him, just because he's categorized in my mind as good stuff. But when I go to listen to it, it's not like I hate it, it's just more like, "eh...". So there you go, smartass

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 01:46 PM

btw, your av is creepy...

porkmarras · 07.24.2006, 01:50 PM

Nah Frank Zappa is creepy.His musical wrong doing has caused enough suffering the world over.

porkmarras · 07.24.2006, 01:55 PM

A bad scar yesterday.

Cantankerous · 07.24.2006, 02:16 PM

Oh god. That is vile.

are you thinking of Steve Reich?

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 02:25 PM

There is this indie music store in Lexington, KY called Cd Central; great store, you can find ANYTHING there, and if for some reason it's not there, you can order it through them. Anyways, they have a huge Zappa collection, and the guy who runs it looks a LOT like Zappa. Now, it may just be that he looks like him on purpose, being a big fan. But we all like to think that Frank didn't die, he just ducked out and moved to a small town with a decent indie scene and opened up a music store...

Glice · 07.24.2006, 02:31 PM

Alvin Lucier, Bernard Parmegiani, Steve Reich, John Cage - any of them?

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 03:05 PM

I don't know, I feel like his first name is Peter...

Cantankerous · 07.24.2006, 03:18 PM

god damnit, look what i've spawned at the drop of a name.

porkmarras · 07.24.2006, 03:33 PM

Funnily i was thinking of Steve Reich myself but i'm not sure about it.

afterthefact · 07.24.2006, 03:45 PM

Yeah, I looked it up, it was Steve Reich I was thinking of. Thank god, it was driving me nuts...

porkmarras · 07.24.2006, 03:46 PM
