Go somewhere else!

I've been slacking off a little, then again I wonder if anyone actually reads this. Well, I just have some linky links today:

Anthony Braxton turned 60 this past year, so he's giving a series of concerts for the rest of the year at Wesleyan. The September show featured a solo performance, a 7-piece world premiere for Composition 103, and one of his Ghost Trance performances. November 16-20 consists of his piano works played by Genevieve Foccroulle. December 7-10 is more of his large ensemble compositions. All include lectures by Braxton and other music scholars. I'd be at that December series if I wasn't graduating. More info here.

Paris Transatlantic has their October issue up. That new Mark Dresser solo album sounds mighty tasty. Modern composer/avant-gardist Raz Mesinai engineers it in his home studio (check out Resurrections for Goatskin).

And I forgot to link this Dusted label feature on Creative Sources a couple weeks ago. They also reviewed the new Evan Parker Electro-Acoustic Ensemble CD, which nearly always sound like horror soundtracks (a good thing and I'm sure unintentional).
