Edison’s Ephemera 139 – Have Another Go

This part where I replaced my studio’s primary computer continues to be interesting. Older sequence files don’t behave properly and upgrading Digital Performer has added a couple hours to workflow because software improvements inevitably mean something you use a lot isn’t there anymore, or has moved, or is done differently now.

This, of course, is a first world problem. For making music I shouldn’t complain because it’s a pretty good setup. Eventually I’ll learn what changed and I’ll be good for a couple more years until the next major upgrade happens, or I stop using this stuff. 

This is not a repeat of the last Ephemera at all, but I am more conscious of style repeats. So it may have some similarity with the last one, or it might not. My piano sections have varied wildly lately and the electronic sections have been moving to a new style, slowly. Then again I am reminded that style is a signature. 

So I’ll just play what I play and it should be whatever it turns out to be. Hope you tune in  to find out what I end up playing.

As usual it’s 2 hours of more or less improvised music, performed solo.

If you’ve missed shows or want to explore some of the past Ephemera performances, you can find them at https://aegura.harriman4.com/ephemera.php which has the past few years of them. Beware, they’re all 2 hours long so there’s a lot to listen to (maybe 120 hours or so).
