It's very quiet on LAM lately. I've actually
managed to get two of my
entries adjacent to each other.
I've been working mostly on live music with bands, not so much home recording. So I
haven't posted much to LAM, and my own blog has gone very quiet except for live clips
and the occasional experiment on my own.
I have some really great stuff to post as soon as I get around to sorting it all out and
getting clearances from the various guest musicians involved.
I suppose I could post the H2-made live recordings on LAM, but it's not strictly 100%
"Made with Linux". There are lots of real non-Linux instruments (sax, bass,
drums, congas, guitar, voice, etc.) and the recording method has been an H2 and not Ardour
or anything Linux-based. The only Linux content has been my keyboard playing.
It is very fun and instructional to get out of cyberspace and into the real world of
playing music for an audience. It even pays a tiny, tiny, infintessimal amount of money
too, which is a slight improvement over the frictionless zero-cost-but-zero-income method
of distrbuting home-made music over the Internet. Then again the costs of transportation
and the time involved in schlepping gear around (oh my aching back!) makes it largely a
money-losing endeavour.
So that's why no weekly releases lately from me, anyway.
