Sounds Like
"a broader and more varied sound than a violin and guitar would normally yield." - NY Times
"blissful post-rock reveries that suggest meaningful acquaintance with the work of Robert Fripp, Sigur Rós and Godspeed You! Black Emperor... gently mesmerizing stuff regardless of category." -Time Out NY
"Reasonable listeners may disagree as to whether the ambient, post-Minimalist music produced by the duo itsnotyouitsme — Caleb Burhans, violinist, and Grey McMurray, guitarist — is chamber music or rock. But that’s beside the point: these musicians live in both worlds, and their instrumental meditations are structurally fascinating and at times meltingly beautiful." - ny times: best records of '08
We’re playing a collaborative
concert with Greta Gertler next
Tuesday, 6/23 at Joe’s Pub, one of our very favorite venues in New York. It’s
going to be a special night with lots of new music. We hope you can make it…
Check it out! I wrote a free book on music production! It's for total beginners, but if you aren't new to music production, maybe you'll still learn something... at least you can send it to your friends who always want to ask you a billion questions about music production! It's free so...
Hello fellows, you already know how much I appreciate your music - you are represented on my top list with Beyondo at the moment. Come over to my place some day and listen to my latest "the crippled court jester". The voice belongs to the world famous opera singer Ingvar Wixell, and I have his permission. Welcome, and thank you for accepting my friend request.
Hey there anteater...Really like the tunes, first time I've listened to the newer stuff.. you like your mail? Ben and I made them all by ourselves!! :)
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that my new album Afrikan Machinery is out now on Tzadik Records. Check out some of the tracks on my profile! You can buy the CD here, here, or here. It's also available on iTunes.
Best Wishes, Lukas Ligeti
