| Note | Notes from Jesse posted 1/29/2005 on Lotusvibes message board:
"I guess not everyone in the audience understood the "loops, improvs, and experiments" part of the show. We played 7 new pieces many of which employed many new techniques and live applications. "Something You Said" is based on a couple looped beats. "Fulafare" is our arrangement of a traditional drum ensemble beat. "Mellow Rock IDM Improv" was a sort of Sigur Ros improvised piece that used a couple of different loops. "Jack it Up" is an improv based on loops and vocal samples - we also performed this at NYE. "Music for Mallets Winds and Percussion" is a piece I wrote in college originally arranged for 2 marimbas, vibraphone, clarinet, flute, piano, 2 violins and egg shaker - we rearranged it so Lotus could perform it. "Point/Electric Counterpoint" is based on a loop from Steve Reich's "Electric Counterpoint". "136BPM Dance Improv" was based on a drum loop and synth bass line. So the experiment was Lotus trying new compositional and performance techniques - not a science experiment or a knob twisting fest."es - not a science experiment or a knob twisting fest." |
