that depends on what you mean by live—
i have a library of audio loops that weighs about a
gig, dl'd from various places—some are packs i found
on p2p networks (shareaza, as opposed to
kazaa—shareaza connects to both the usual gnutella
network and to e-donkey)–and some from b-movie sites
and other weird spots(there's a bit of dark shadows in
there, and some liquid sky, as well as orson welles'
war of the worlds broadcast)(and mothra!)
i tend to mix "live playing"===guitar and synth,
usually==with these loops–the loops themselves are
often heavily processed and filtered (it's rare these
days that a bit of music doesn't spend a lot of time
on my desktop gradually getting mixed down to my
satisfaction—but i'm never REALLY satisfied with it,
i just decide eventually that it's good enough to
stand on its own)
so, no, i guess—it's a very studio-centric
experience—

were you going somewhere / coming

not sure what you mean by this—psychically or
physically? & then there's the question as to whether

every piece is a journey, of course—this one sounds
deliberately lo-fi, as i was kinda charmed by all the
weird little noises in the background—

what tools did you use?
/*
acid pro 4
my loop library
my guitar
my palm pilot (i have this app called sound pad, a
cute piano for the palm—one octave, but it is the
only one of its kind i've found that responds
dynamically–when you tap a key, the duration of the
note is exactly the time the stylus stays on
it—there's one track of this in there, about midway
through, mixed low, duplicated and pitch-shifted
