<plug><div>Check my 'Konzentrische' piece (link in my sig). It was all done with acoustic instruments, recordings of which were subject to extreme speed variations, speed fluctuation, filtering, EQ and layering (absolutely no electronic sounds or sophisticated processing were used). It's about 17 minutes total, though.</div>

<br>
what is .microsound? what will it sound like in 10 years time?<br>
is it purely music made via digital means or can it shape shift into using acoustic musical instruments?<br>
what is the sound of microacoustic music?<br>
let's find out<br>
each microsound member gets a chance to describe what microacoustic music sounds like to them<br>
<br>
<br>
GUIDELINES:<br>
<br>
- length: all works must be 2 minutes maximum<br>
<br>
- deadline: February 1 2010<br>
<br>
- mp3 files: filenames use only ALPHANUMERICS; i.e. NO spaces (underbars_and-hyphens-are-OK), stereo, encoded at 192 - 320kbps and have ID3 tags!! please make sure they have ID3 tags! <br>
content: all sound sources are acoustic musical instruments<br>
with NO processing other than the following:<br>
- mixing/layering<br>
- editing (cut 'n paste)<br>
- slowing down or speeding up<br>
- filtering/EQ<br>
<br>
instruments can be detuned, woodwinds played as percussion, stick a sax mouthpiece on a bassoon, contact mic'd, deconstructed, use extended techniques, destroyed or played 'properly' then (de)composed in editing<br>
<br>
files should be placed here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.microsound.org/repository/" target="_blank">http://www.microsound.org/repository/</a><br>
<br>
there is also a link on the <a href="http://microsound.org" target="_blank">microsound.org</a> front page<br>
<br>
***you MUST be sub'd to the list before you are allowed to upload files<br>
<br>
the server checks for you against the list of sub'ers<br>
<br>
if you are having trouble write to Paulo or John and ask them to update the list<br>
(has to be done by hand IIRC)<br>
<br>
___remember to name and tag your files properly or they will be taken down___<br>
