The live looping festival is a 3 day festival with innovative artists from around the world. Cyoakha focuses her array of exotic world instruments into creating one of a kind instant songs by looping and layering beautiful vocals with trance-inducing drones such as harmonium, keys, Native flutes, didjeridu, melodica & percussion. With anti-war lyrics intermingled with a call to becoming a more loving & tribal society, this dream trance is deeply Shamanic in nature, thus her name for this type of creation - "SHEMANA ELECTRONA. " http://www.cyoakhagrace.com/ Sunday Oct. 22nd 11:30pm Y2K6 INTERNATIONAL LIVE LOOPING FEST- Alchemy Club, 120 Pearl Alley, Santa Cruz, Cost: $10 (day) full bios on all artists & info on schedule http://www.y2k6loopfest.com/ ***** I'm driving down from Portland, Oregon for this gig and wanted to let ectos know about it, there are several women in a sea of men performing during this 3 day fest, a wonderful cellist named Zoe, formerly with Rasputina, Amy X and a few other female singers that loop their voices.

So any ectos in the area please come support us. Oh wow. If I could somehow teleport to Santa Cruz for this, I *so* would. We saw Zoe Keating open for Imogen Heap earlier this year, and she was mesmerizing. And Amy X Neuburg is just stunningly brilliant. (Cyo doesn't suck, either. ;) > *****And I am hoping to stay in SC until Thursday night the 26th as > my dear friend PIPA PINON is performing, Oh wow!! Is Dreambeach still an entity? Their set at the EctoFestWest house concert remains one of my fondest musical memories ever. Yeah, definitely too bad I'm stuck in the wrong part of the country that week ... *sigh* But anyone within reach should definitely try to make it to these performances!! - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 14 Oct 2006 20:51:10 -0700 (PDT) From: "Xenu's Sister" Subject: Classy, ecto-friendly magazines in the UK (and maybe Europe)? The woman who will be doing the interview wants it to appear in a magazine with a larger circulation to get Happy more publicity. I half-heartedly suggested Dirty Linen or Performing Songwriter, though those are more folk-oriented. I seriously suggested the New Yorker. Now wouldn't that be cool. I'll bet the competition to get pieces in the New Yorker is way fierce, but part of what they do is feature articles about things you've never heard of and you end up fascinated by them. In any case (dreams aside), I also suggested shopping the article/interview to UK magazines. All I could really think of that might be even partially ecto-friendly were Mojo and Q. We at least know they like Kate. Any other suggestions? I don't know about the papers like Melody Maker, New Musical Express and the ilk (it's been years since I've even thought of those magazines). I doubt any place in Europe is going to be interested in an article about an obscure American singer, and of course it'll be in English anyway, but if someone has a suggestion they'd like to pass on, I'd like to hear it. I've only gotten 2 questions. Nothing about the Find Me Sampler songs? This could, maybe, possibly, turn out to be a very important interviewer/writer. Very important. Shall I tell her that Ectophiles now know everything there is to know about her and have no need to know any more? I assume the article will be directed more toward people who don't know Happy, but there should be an in-depth slant too, assuming that whatever magazine(s) take it, allow it. She's digging deep. Happy Rhodes scholors (yes, as a matter of fact, there will be some) in the future could possibly be using this article as a great starting point. There will be books written about Happy and it'll be a great resource for them too. (laugh now, monkeyphiles! Some of you will have grandchildren who will take elective psychology courses based on Happy Rhodes lyrics...no, I'm not going insane, why do you ask?) You never know. Nothing? Nada? Beuller?

I'm not sure I agree Performing Songwriter is folk-oriented. They have a pretty diverse group. In the US, I think the obvious choice would be Paste magazine. I think that'd be a perfect fit. In the UK, maybe Hyperactive? hyperactivemusicmag.com They had Imogen Heap on the cover recently. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 15 Oct 2006 01:16:00 -0400 From: meredith Subject: Re: Classy, ecto-friendly magazines in the UK (and maybe Europe)? Hi, Jon Wesley Huff wrote: > I'm not sure I agree Performing Songwriter is folk-oriented. They have > a pretty diverse group. That is true. But I also don't think that Performing Songwriter would be appropriate, since they focus on musicians who, well, *perform* their music. :} Happy rarely performs live, so I don't think they would be interested. > In the US, I think the obvious choice would be > Paste magazine. I think that'd be a perfect fit. I would agree as far as subject matter ... but of course the main question is, which publications accept articles by freelancers? And if they do, will they be open to an article by a freelancer not already in their stable? - -- =============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth =============================================== hear at the HOMe House Concert Series http://hom.smoe.org =============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 14 Oct 2006 23:33:13 -0600 From: neal copperman Subject: Re: Classy, ecto-friendly magazines in the UK (and maybe Europe)? Wow, interesting to see Hyperactive mentioned here. Do you read it regularly? What do you think? Has anyone else out there read it/seen it? I hadn't seen it in ages and was given the Imogen issue recently. Particularly interesting to me that you thought it was from the UK, since it is based right here in Albuquerque! neal .
