true, I just have to break them in gradually.

Russian Red and Misty Boyce tonight. I kind of really like Misty Boyce's album even though something about the production makes me think I shouldn't like it.

I know I should put this in stunning recordings, but I'll just leave it here for now.

This is some mathematically or procedurally generated "music", right?

It's actually a bunch of filters over-driven into each other, so much so that the original phase synthesized waveform barely makes it through. The final filter, a low pass, is operated by a looping, low frequency oscillator of which the time of the attack phase can be varied. Also the cut point of that last filter can be adjusted. The sound is "played" mostly by changing the filter parameters, although principle notes can be fed into the filter chain for small variations.

Jem tonight.

I'm listening to John Hiatt's latest album, Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Hymns.

Soulful stuff.

And the image is all floaty above my monitor....

It's a Mac thing, Mark.

Peter, how is it? I'm basically a Hiatt completist (well, after Bring the Family, anyway) so I'll probably get it. But I haven't pulled the trigger yet. I'd be interested in a more detailed review.
