Dear Jason: Thanks for the add & the kind comment. i enjoyed your material, too. Some wonderfully ferocious gestures and richly detailed textures. Do you you know Jim Mobberly in K.C.? if so , could you say hello to him for me. i was in grad school in musicology in Chapel hill in the late 70s when he was studying with Roger Hannay. - Thanks - gil.
This stuff is great - I'm not educated on this type of music, but It reminds me of extremely slow ambient w/o the bassline and drumloop. Thanks for checking out my music as well.
