Another update:
I'm done with Soundohm.
After months of waiting for something I messaged them to cancel. The response was basically "Oh, thanks for reminding us. We cannot get that."
That response basically tells me that you the buyer must do the footwork when things are long delayed, not Soundohm.
It's not "rip off" per se. But it's not the kind of "customer service" that I expect.

I don't think this is really soundohms fault, they are hands down one of the best international distributors globally.
I had one small problem 15 years ago with them when they were still using Italian Post and they just resent the record months after I told them the first didn't arrive. But Italian Post is notorious. And now that they've switched to FedEx it's perfect. The packaging durning shipping is also the best I've seen.
I think it's weird how some distro pages allow you to place orders for things out of stock, but I think that should be buyer beware, especially given our community (where stocks are exceptionally limited and restocking might just not happen) and our geo political environment where the mail is being systematically sabotaged by the American Government.
I'd encourage anyone to continue using soundohm, they are an amazing distro, doing an exceptionally large volume.

RE: Hormone Lemming
I have to be in a special headspace for this kind of chaos. There are a couple points that had me thinking of Zoviet France; I think something similar to what happens on Loh-Land. I'd have to give it more thought to be sure where specifically. And it had me wanting to listen to Stockhausen's Hymnen too. Really does have that old radio/malfunctioning radio/urbana broadcast to the countryside thing going for it. I like that it sounds both improvised AND like every millisecond is composed. I don't normally go off in the headspace of trying to figure out how something is done, but if it comes to me while listening, I'll go there. More that the decisions of what to keep are meticulous, and the material itself is a lot of accident. I don't need confirmation on that. It's a fleeting notion thing and nothing of real importance to my experience listening to it.
I'm looking forward to hearing more.

Somehow I overlooked the recent Grunt – Kiveen Ikuistettu CD + Book.
And it was lovely to see recent footage of a live show. So nice to put a face to the master of ceremonies here! 😍
Merry Christmas all!!

Your ability to run samples and jam simultaneously is only limited by the size of your mixer!
For me, I rehearse and come with a plan to the show. Most recently, I had three tape players with different loops, and then several synths and a feedback loop (with a level controller). I would trigger various tapes at certain points during the performance, and then alter other aspects of the setup as needed/in ways that would stay interesting for the duration of the performance.
I'm not sure what you mean by recording/dubbing in this context, but I try to set up a tripod and film/record my set. This last time, however, I also ran the headphone output from my mixer into a digital recorder to see how that works.

What is your process for performing such duties? Do you have loops/samples prepared, with timing information and tracking sheet on paper handy? Cueing any tracks before mixing them? Is it something you can do at the same time as you jam?
