EC Members Duet Album proposal

9/13/2018

I saw a recent update where Hal proposed that we have projects with an emphasis on mutual collaboration within the EC community.

In the spirit of that, I’d like to propose a project where an album of sonic material is created by using tracks consisting of myself and other EC members in a series of Duets.

I would also propose that each Duet collaborate on an image for their tracks together.

Depending on the interest level & logistics, the cover could also be a sort of “ Jam “ Session whereby all the collaborators create an image.

While I’m not inclined to propose a deadline at this point, I’m thinking something later this year in the late fall / winter -

If you are interested, please let me know here
or send me an email directly

I would love to do this, but at the moment, I have absolutely no time. If, you could wait for my contribution till November, I am in.

I'll have to figure out our PortaStudio better, but I'd be down and I bet Aimee would be as well :D

ha ha Neal! you beat me to the punch! I was anticipating the same kind of invitation for a Walls Of Genius collab project in 2019. I'd be happy to participate. Shoot me an email (or vice versa) and we can figure out how this works.

RSS Feed

ELECTRONIC COTTAGE is an international magazine where independent artists, musicians, writers and freethinkers share in-depth articles, essays, interviews, tech and gear reviews and tutorials,
and much more.
EC draws inspiration from the Cassette Culture Revolution of the 1980s, 90s and beyond; Mail Art, Small Press and Zines, Dada, Fluxus, Punk Rock, Hacking, Circuit Bending, Anarchy, and Noise.
EC values inclusion, democracy, experimentation, independence and freedom of thought and expression, open-minded exchange, and Community.

From this moment forward the Electronic Cottage website will primarily be an online magazine for the publication of lengthy and in-depth articles, essays, and interviews.
For those of you who use Facebook I have created an Electronic Cottage Group, which will be a casual social gathering place of the EC Community, where EC people can meet, share artwork and news of current projects and releases.
The EC website will continue as before, and I encourage those of you who do not use Facebook to use the FORUM page here at the EC website to post miscellaneous thoughts and personal updates.
The website and this EC Facebook Group are two separate but connected entities of the greater EC Community.
