Well, I should mention that Dominique and his band were very good! Cool weird experimental pop. He had a bass player, a drummer, and a flautist/vocalist, some of whom played from sheet music for the whole set! He said they weren't on the album though. His voice reminded me (a LOT) of Mark Davies from the Thinking Fellers Union Local 282, which is a compliment.
They were all hot but the drummer was especially stylish.

Still hot, obv. As I saw with my own eyes when he kindly gave me a copy of his new album Abstract the other day up in SF. Lotsa great fanfares and vocal swoops and not-quite-keyboard-prog-1979ness -- and a song about Nellie McKay! Called "Nellie McKay" at that!

i used to think Kim Newman was a 'she'. (pretty cool, a girl digging all those horror flicks and being a nerdy movie critic in general)

2. j3ss harvell’s Wolfgang Voight review is the #1 review of the day and gets an 8.5 Best New Review — found it really frank and conversational, it reads like she sat down with us to try to explain why she couldn’t get into the new Wolfgang Voight record, but it’s respectful and avoids what i can imagine was a strong temptation to dismiss the fuck out of this record, which she makes sound wildly unappetizing

Dominique Leone getting in the paper is awesome and I'm all for it, but "what's new about his achievement is that he took Reich's piece and remixed it" seems a slightly weak angle, given that there have already been 2 pretty high-profile "Reich Remixed" compilations
anyhow, that doesn't matter - nice bit of publicity, hope it leads to some new ears listening to Dominique (Reich too, for that matter), look forward to hearing the remix

The rewriting of works by other composers is a venerable tradition, going back to at least the time of Josquin
ha ha good grief! that's got it backwards all right

In retrospect it feels like Dominque was the only writer on earth who treated "V∞redoms" like an actual thing
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Tuesday, 13 February 2018 18:41 (six years ago) link
oh god this thread again.
really? They were definitely going by that at shows for maybe 10 years or so after VCN. They never released anything as Voredoms afaik, but I always figured that was due more to publishing than anything.
