Thank you. The music is all urmymuse, in his synthy 80s phase. The words…they’re just my tools.

Thank you!

Thank you. On further reflection, I don’t think I can blame this flare up on remixing…just bad luck and old age…

You are most welcome. The stems were great to work with as they played off each other nicely, which made my job a lot easier. The poem took a long time to come because my head has been pre-occupied with our impeachment hearings over here and accessing poetry has been a real bother.

I’m relieved you liked it as my target is my only worry in terms of audience acceptance, and Englishmen hold a very special place in my heart. I’m married to a Cheshireman, and I have had quite a collection of nears and dears over the years, and still do. So welcome to my collection :-). I’ve got another of yours teed up in my system and as soon as I get some time and the upload limit resets, you may see another one of yours with some words added. I love your nickname by the way!

Thank you.

And, can’t really explain how much joy it has given me to hear your voice in this Secret Mixter. Twice today!! I’ve missed your art, wisdom, and that sound wave that is uniquely yours. Thank you for being here today!!

Thank you on a most personal level for your very kind words. It’s been quite a few months for my voice as I had my tonsils out in August. Thank you for also keeping this beacon of hope and collaboration together. I may not be visibly active here all the time but I keep watch over it. I wish I could throw some money in too, but two kids headed for higher education puts a little strain on the family….

You had your tonsils out just this past August? I hope you are recovering fully and the benefits of having them gone last the rest of your life.

Yes I did. I recovered within a month. My only regret was that I missed August in the garden and eating our height of the summer produce. Because I wasn’t out there harvesting, a lot of stuff didn’t get eaten by the family. But the wildlife had a good year!

Thank you. The pacing was done through editing which was a pain in the backside, especially when I went to double the track. Even when this stuff is simple, it isn’t!

Thank you. I’ve seen Laurie twice live. One was a concert tour in support of her album Strange Angels, and one was a sort of talk/concert which was fascinating. She’s teaching a class at Princeton this semester which is about half an hour from my house and it’s all I can do but go sit outside the building and wait for her to come out!

Thank you.

Thank you. The words were kind of hard to come by and the production and arranging did involve actual thought so it’s nice to have it recognized!

Thank you. I appreciate the detailed review. The 80s were an interesting time. Some of us are locked there and find it hard to get out! As for Laurie’s work, it is so vast and interesting. I love her production voice so much. I did her VR installation “Chalkroom” twice. I wish I had hours in there. Look it up online. It’s fascinating. She has a new one called To The Moon, I think.
