Fusions

Stearno and Jackal,

I like it.

I thought it was going to be more of a back and forth collab, but the re-mix
was excellent.

Nice solos all around!

My only peeve, and it is a personal "don't mind me" sorta gripe, is the
chattering electronica drums.

Ugh. They leave a bad taste in my mouth. But, don't mind me.

All in all, a most excellent piece. And a lonnnnnnng download to boot. We
country bumpkins have pret near turtle modems ya'hear?

Congratulations, lets hope ( and work hard) for more inter-list music.

HI Dan and Jacky,

Enjoyed your fusions piece, thanks :-),
plenty of fresh air in it!

I have never much liked relentlessly repeated
rhythms, but this group is causing me to
broaden my tastes a bit, when one hears them
so subtly and delicately handled.

Some very nice melodic solos, and kind of
trademark Dan Stearns chaos leading to unexpected
moments of contemplation in the middle of it all.

the lists?

ara is still struggling with that. it turned out the help screens
used a font that was illegible on his computer, and he was not able
to view them in a different format or save them as text files. i told
him to ask robert walker for text files of those help screens.

thanks -- i will keep your kind offer in mind, and tell ara about it
if he is still having problems.
