Someone out there said something about Cecil Taylor doing a week at Mills College this October, and even though Z-listers are not allowed to like Cecil Taylor, I for one want more information about this. Chris Selvig

Re: isan / ambient techno / non-zc.
by sooooo spicy 24 May '02

hey, if you like isan you should definitely check out mum's (there should be an accent over the "u") deservedly well received record from last year, 'yesterday was dramatic, today is okay'. i'm pretty sure they're friend with isan. they just released their follow up, but i haven't had a chance to here it yet. also e*vax is along the same style and (i think) runs the zine "thumb" which interviews tons of cool electronic acts (like mum and isan in his last issue). his record 'parking lot music' is really good. those are the two that come to my mind right now that i would recommend checking out. >>>>> hi all. within the last 6 months i've been listening to and finally acquired a copy of the album Lucky Cat, by a sort of ambient/minimal 'techno' (for lack of a better term) group called Isan. i was wondering if anyone out there was familiar with it, and if so what else in this vein s/he could reccomend to me. --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?

satoko fujii -- vulcan, CDs
by mwisckol＠ocregister.com 24 May '02

24 May '02

I caught the Vulcan quartet in San Diego recently and thought they were a blast. Very fun -- but not the pinnacle of Fujii's and Tamura's playing. Part of the problem had to do with the mix in the smallish gallery room (about 50 people big). Yoshida and Hayakawa were very loud, and Fujii and Tamura were over shadowed in the mix (despite mics). Perhaps in response, Tamura played more straight than usual (a relative description, to be sure), since a lot of his unusual mannerisms would not be heard. Fujii tried meeting the volume challenge and was pounding away -- but her best moments were when she was trading off with Yoshida (or perhaps those were the only ones I could hear well). I agree that her big band (especially JO) and dresser-black trio (especially Toward, To West) bring out her profound depth better than Vulcan, which seems to be more about extroverted fun. To these favorites, I would quickly add the new duets "Clouds" (the trumpeter husbandTamura's name comes first on the cover). Elsewhere, Tamura can sound like he searching along the precipice for his uniqueness. On this Cd, he seems to have found it fully and is speaking directly in this musical language he has invented ... and Fujii is right there. The instincts and interplay are wonderful, if frequently forlorn. Martin np. Ustad Sultan Khan, "Sarangi"

Hi all, I'll be in NYC for a meeting in late June and wondered what performances people knew about from June 25-29. Nosing around Web sites for Tonic & the Knit I didn't see much that seemed like it would make much of a difference to me, but what do I know? Thanks in advance. Herb

pitchfork review - naked city live
by jason tors 24 May '02

24 May '02

http://pitchforkmedia.com/watw/02-05/zorn.shtml "I always thought it was kind of funny, these kind of middle-aged guys with glasses and pot-bellies, with music stands, reading these charts ... [the audience] was really happening, I mean these guys were like diving on the stage and all that was going on. That was amazing. And we were still standing up there reading our charts." This wasn't just 'ironic'; it was deeply weird, and not a little confrontational. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!

I hope this all come true and it turn out to be a hoax. Apologize in this case! Andreas >From: Steve Smith<ssmith36(a)sprynet.com> > >Agreed re: starting a cancer scare before the facts are in. CT's got the >all-star big band gigs on June 20-21 at the Knit, a week at Mills College >in October and another performance with Bang on a Can that same month in >Paris on his current schedule.
