UVA at Coachella

Here's a nice look at an A/V installation, aka fancy stage, at Coachella 2011. I love the affect that the interior lighting has on the overall feel.

nontronic?

Hi, and happy spring (if you are on this side of the earth). I recently did a radio show at Brown, on The Fieldhouse, but it was a bit off the beaten path, at least until the last 20 minutes or so....but, I figured I'd at least share it here, as there is a wide variety of sounds that would appeal to the person bored of 4/4 time in techno music.

the heavies of dubstep

quick set I did for my current radio show at Brown, which has some flavors appropriate for this blog.

Clearly I love Shackleton and Badawi.

The 23 Constellations of Joan Miro

I came across this interesting archive from a recent concert, from the WNYC New Sounds Live Concert Series, and may be a great introduction to the music of Bobby Previte.

From the New Sounds Live Concert Series, recorded in October at the World Financial Center's Winter Garden, hear the American premiere of Bobby Previte's set of musical miniatures - "The 23 Constellations of Joan Miro." It's an ambitious and colorful work by the composer/drummer Previte, where painting, poetry and music all come together, bringing to life a series of small canvases that Joan Miro painted during World War II. Listen to Joan Miro's texts, read by actor David Patrick Kelly, and Bobby Previte's musical responses the paintings.
