This month, The New York City Jazz Record puts a spotlight on the record label SLAM Productions. [NYC Jazz Record (PDF)…] [More…]

If the musical automaton io 0.0.1 beta++ could feel gratitude, or express thanks, I imagine it would warmly thank George Haslam and his label for taking a gamble on a recording of real-time interactions between human and machine musicians, and including it in the SLAM catalog. Whether io could do, or feel, any of those things, George has my sincerest thanks for all his support over the years!

Bruce Coates, Franziska Schroeder and io 0.0.1 beta++ (Ó Riada Hall, Cork, May 25, 2010)

Third audio clip (and final in the series) from ‘io 0.0.1 beta++’ (SLAMCD 531) below:

Excerpted from the track ‘Discovery: Decay’, the clip is taken from what is, for me, an uncharacteristic track on the CD, with its serene, careful and economical counterpoint between saxophonist Franziska Schroeder, me on guitar, and the interactive automaton io 0.0.1 beta++. Beppe Colli described this track as “‘Baroque’ and ‘Renaissance-like’, the whole sounding quite consonant, and so offering the most listener-friendly moment on the album” [read the review…] [in Italian…]. [More info on the recording…]

Thanks to George Haslam for his support. Audio clip courtesy of SLAM Productions.
Music by Han-earl Park, Bruce Coates and Franziska Schroeder.

Second audio clip from ‘io 0.0.1 beta++’ (SLAMCD 531) below:

Excerpted from the track ‘Discovery: Intermodulation’, the clip features Bruce Coates on sopranino saxophone in duet with the musical automaton io 0.0.1 beta++. One of my favorite moments from the CD, it’s a performance that demonstrates, to quote François Couture, “dismantled gestures, destabilizing timbres, and impressive synergy” [read the review…].
