a friend of mine, who sometimes visits this board under the name of Bremzen, makes very good electronic music, under the name of murw (also see his mp3.com.au site)
and we also make music together - the very few live things I have done, have all been with him.
anyway, yesterday we presented an installation in the Central Museum here in Utrecht - it consisted of 10 minutes of electronic music made by us and a video made by me.
if you will, please take a listen to our music, which we have called:
plongez, plongez
it's just over 10 minutes and therefore almost 10 Mb - quite a lot, but if you're not on dial-up, it would be appreciated. :)
the theme of the exhibition was "fish", so we took the first 2 minutes of audio of the semi-nature film "Atlantis" by Jean-Luc Besson. that audio consists of a silly voice-over done in a disgusting manner.
at the last minute we decided we wanted a video, so I stayed up most of the night before the exhibition and worked almost 10 hours straight to make my first video in Adobe Premier..
if you like, you can also see the video: click or right-click
that one's 20 Mb.. the sound quality is shit, but it gives some idea of what we presented.
..
any comments on the above is welcome, ofcourse!

well, i watched the video and that is really cool. kind of reminds me of Stan Brakhage in some ways. the only part i didn't really like was the white negative fish scene - i got kind of sick of that. but otherwise, it was really cool. i dig the soundtrack too - good work!

yeah, it does get incredibly repetative at that point. I wanted to do more there, but my graphics card is CRAP, so just rendering took 15 minutes at a time.
I literally had to throw my laptop into my bag and go over to the museum and install it there!

I will.
how do I end up in the Centraal Museum? well, exactly through bremzen. :)
he works for the Rosa Ensemble, as a kind of assistant director to the ensemble as well as a composer.
we've always worked together on things, mostly me as a textwriter, him as the composer. same now goes for Rosa - as I think I told before we're now working on an opera to be played by Rosa in a few years. we're creating the storyline together, he'll compose the music, I'll write the text.
the Rosa Ensemble gets asked to perform in the Centraal Museum quite frequently and there's always room to do some electronic stuff, because you just put it on a cd and set it on 'repeat' etc.
and we like working together. so there you go - it is true, it's about who you know, I guess. :)

I took all of them down a few days ago. it feels weird having all this work up that I have little connection to anymore - it's not dead to me or something, just more of a distance.
and I feel like I'm changing direction in music, using more clean samples, so it feels good to have a clear start.
if you like, I can send you a cd-r, just mail me your adress. I'm sending out some stuff to recylclere this week anyway. and pomme. because I promised that a long time ago.

the opera will be about a silly dumb prince, Prins Frentzen; his quarelling parents, Koning Spek and Koningin Beton; two evil bureaucrats (is that spelled right????) Frinedly and Basoluut; Frentzen's future girlfriend, Prinses Labiel and a robot called Riem.
btw, qrter and i will be playing in a group called Donskoy on the 8th of may in Utrecht (theater Kikker). we'll also play two days earlier in the "SJU-huis", with a smaller version of Donskoy (which is then called Metercast). 8th of may will be better, because we haven't rehearsed yet. ehm...hurray!

in short the story will be something like this:
the king and queen get into a fight, decide they want to have a divorce or something. the king uses his bureaucrats, which is kind of like a huge secret service, two of them indeed being Frinedly and Basoluut, who decide it is best to drive the king and queen further away from eachother.
the people of the kingdom start chosing sides for the king or the queen and a kind of civil war starts. Frinedly and Basoluut then erect a wall right through the country.
in the midst of this all is the dumb prince Frentzen who really wants everything to be a simple as possible. the situation as it is, is too complicated so something has to be done about it.
the whole thing will be kind of weird and pretty grotesque, is the idea.
all the above can change at the drop of a hat, ofcourse.. :D
