ITUNES + EMUSIC + OTHERS . from the 3particles archives OTHER  
MATERIALS (2003) and DIRECT.INCIDENTAL.CONSEQUENTIAL edition 2  
( 1998/2002) now available.

CD . 60º Project  - The Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival is  
celebrating the 60th anniversary of musique concrete and the  
pioneering work of Pierre Schaeffer by commissioning 60º by Mathew  
Adkins. This highly exciting and adventurous work will involve the  
contribution of sound materials by 60 composers from around the world.  
We would like to invite you to be one of the participating composers.  
artists include: AGF, François Bayle, Mira Calix, Richard Chartier,  
Francis Dhomont, Lawrence English, Erikm,	Christian Fennesz, Tim  
Hecker	, Christina Kubisch, Francisco López, Stephan Mathieu, Steve  
Roden, Scanner, Janek Schaefer, Conrad Schnitzler, Sogar, Terre  
Thaemlitz, David Toop and many more. The concept behind the project is  
ingenious. Rather than celebrating Schaeffer's achievements through  
curating a concert of historical works, Adkins and the hcmf Artistic  
Director Graham McKenzie have decided to invite 60 sound artists and  
composers to each contribute 60 sounds. Each of these sounds will then  
be made available to all of the participants who will then create  
sound fragments based on this material. This material will then be  
mixed by Adkins in the studios of INA-GRM in July 2008. The work will  
be premiered on 28th November 2008 at the Huddersfield Contemporary  
Music Festival. The premiere will also mark the release of the work on  
CD.   http://www.60project.com/
