Hi folks,

It was another packed show last week. In the first hour, an interview with
Christopher Willits about his new record on Ghostly International, 'Surf
Boundaries'. And in the second hour, an interview with Janek Schaefer about
his new one on Room40, 'In The Last Hour'.

They are both great records and provided a nice contrast over the two hours.

Check out the Symbiosis news & gig guide - up now on the Triple R page.

Ciao,

Simon.

This week:

29th November 2006: Scott Smallwood was born in Dallas, Texas, and grew up
at 10,000 feet in elevation in the Colorado Rockies. When Smallwood was 10
years old, he received his first tape recorder, and ever since he has been
fascinated by the possibilities of recorded sound. Currently based in New
Jersey, Smallwood's work deals with real and abstracted sound textures based
on a practice of listening, improvisation, and phonography. Ranging between
sonic photographs, abstracted studio pieces, improvisations, and composed
structures, his work attempts to deal with the puzzle of pulling signal out
of noise.

>From 1997-2003, he served as studio engineer and technical director at the
iEAR Studios of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where he was also on the
faculty teaching computer music and technical production. He holds music
degrees from Miami University of Ohio, Peabody Conservatory, and Princeton
University. Scott is currently a doctoral fellow in the music department of
Princeton University.

And the Symbiosis label focus takes a look at San Diego label Accretions.


In the pipeline: NMA Tapes retrospective, 2006 recap


Have a great week,

Simon.
