I want to celebrate my birthday by giving away music. The piece I shall offer in our ListeningLounge – only from January 29th through February 4th – is a piece that came on the wings of… something. We had stopped recording and Jon was doing something in the control room. I started playing guitar and Rahim began to sing , well, here is a link to my Diary entry from the day after it happened.
I think this piece is an appropriate gift, because it was also a gift to us, in a way. Improvisations like this are the reason why I wanted to become a musician in the first place, to hunt for similar moments of spontaneous combustion.
Jon later added the beautiful bass intro.
Visit the LL on Thursday morning and feel free to tell your friends.
Xiph.Org: QuickTime Components :: Downloads
OGG for Quicktime. Encode and playback OGG Vorbis with Quicktime and playback in iTunes.
Also see this:
Mozilla has given the Wikimedia Foundation a $100,000 grant intended to fund development of the Ogg container format and the Theora and Vorbis media codecs. These open media codecs are thought to be unencumbered by software patents, which means that they can be freely implemented and used without having to pay royalties or licensing fees to patent holders. This differentiates Ogg Theora from many other formats that are widely used today.
The Ogg development improvements will be coordinated by the Wikimedia Foundation.
I like OGG Vorbis, but iPods have by far the biggest share of the market and until Apple starts providing Vorbis playback on iPods (and I’m guessing Fraunhofer Institute, who hold the patents for mp3 compression, has something to do with Apple NOT offering Vorbis playback) there is no point in offering Vorbis files.
A few bars of music from the Luna Negra XL v3 band in 2001.
Today (((I guess I missed the memo – the official official release date for the CD in stores – other than ours – is next Tuesday, June 24th… there, you should not trust anything you read in these pages…))) is the official release date for “The Scent of Light”. Amazon.com must have sold out quickly this morning as they are showing a Temporarily out of stock sign (((well, duh, the release is next week…))).
Of course you can also buy the download from our ListeningLounge and the CD from our online store. (((at least that much is true… until next Tuesday our web store will be the only place you can order/buy/download/obtain a copy of my best album)))
