Announcing the launch of the WEB SITE of the London Musicians' Collective
http://www.l-m-c.org.uk
The site has been designed by Andi Freeman and Jason Skeet of Deepdisc
(http://www.deepdisc.com), and is supported by an Arts Council of England
ATLS grant.
It features:
Calendar - the month in new music in London at a glance.
Information on LMC membership - LMC is a charitable organisation devoted to
new music, particularly free improvisation and experimental musics. You can
join us - or just donate money!
LMCSound studio information - detailing our new resource: a post-production
facility for use by artists, broadcasters and musicians.
Archive - of texts, concert series programme notes, all manner of material
going back over twenty-five years since LMC's inception. This section
includes the programme from Resonance 107.3 FM experimental radio station,
plus audio examples from this and our Annual Festival. There are some
minutes from meetings of the early eighties ("Is LMC dead?", that kind of
thing); plus the infamous "Parker Numbers" April Fool's joke. A section
that is due to grow substantially over the next few months as LMC sorts
through its quarter of a century of constant ground-breaking activity.
Publications - articles and interviews from LMC's Resonance magazine.
Includes features on players such as Marshall Allen of the Sun Ra Arkestra;
Alvin Lucier interviewed by Michael Parsons; Ed Baxter's obituary of Tom
Cora; Romanian composer Iancu Dumitrescu; John "Drumbo" French on Captain
Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica; Charles Hayward, Simon Fell and Tim
Hodgkinson in discussion; Otomo Yoshihide on Japanese new music; and many
more. About twenty texts are up for your immediate perusal.
Audio laboratory - examples of new audio works by key practitioners,
including in this inaugural issue Christian Fennesz, Otomo Yoshihide and
Les Diaboliques (live at the LMC Festival).
Directory - resources for working musicians, contact addresses and links to
other sites. Let us know if you would like to be linked to us and us to you.
Do visit the site and do let us know your thoughts.
To listen to the audio on this site requires the Quicktime 3 plug-in
