I have been making my own homemade experimental music since 1981.

I was an active participant in the 1980s Cassette Culture scene, and I operated the Cause And Effect Cassette Distribution Service and label, and recorded solo as Dog As Master, and in a duo as Viscera.

From 1989 to 1991 I published six issues of the original Electronic Cottage print magazine.

In the last 40 years I have recorded, produced and released more than 300 solo audio works, collaborations and compilations.

Awesome stuff as usual! Leslie makes a great addition to the line up, I think. Thanks for sharing!

Hello P-A! I am glad that you enjoyed AM32! Documentation of AM33, which was on Sunday, is coming soon — perhaps tomorrow (Thursday).

That's great, Hal! Looking forward to it. :)

Per-Arne, you are correct that Leslie fit in perfectly with the Apartment Music crew! It almost felt as if she had always been here with us! Monday morning before she departed Gainesville to go back to NYC I told her that she is now a member of the family and that she will always be welcome to come back and participate in future Apartment Music shows. She replied that she plans to come back for more!

Penny, thanks so much! Can't wait until Apartment Music 33 is posted too!

1/17/2019 12:46:09

Per-Arne, thanks so much! It was so transformative and magical to meet and perform with all the amazing folks at Apartment Music 32 and 33. I have to say that Apartment 32 and 33 were the best gigs that I've ever done. I can't thank Hal enough for inviting me and hosting these shows!

It was a true pleasure meeting you in person and hearing your music and seeing your videos, Leslie! Hope you enjoyed the chips and hope you come back to sunny Florida sooner than later :D

Great to get a glimpse into the alternate universe that is... The Apartment!!

Makes me wish I had gone, but hopefully there'll be a next year....

Fyodor, you have an open, standing invitation to come to Gainesville at any time in the future -- you don't need to wait until next year! We can make a full weekend of it, and hold two Apartment Music shows in one weekend, just like we did with Leslie! I am sure that the Apartment Music regular crew would love to share those possible shows with you. You could do songs, if you like, or you might want to develop some straight-up improvisation. I understand that improv is not something you do a lot of these days, but Apartment Music shows might be a rare opportunity or excuse to do so. We could put together some duos, trios or quartets for you!

AM..
Really great! Hal makes some killer coffee..lots of laughs all day. Really encouraging and needed. I personally get all giddy and super excited when i get a chance to play one. It is fun seeing what others will bring to the table. Yes, definitely come play..

1/17/2019 00:53:27

That's very sweet, and I'll seriously consider it!!

Penny, Little Fyodor performed at an Apartment Music show ten years ago, on January 17, 2009: https://youtu.be/wMor1YCRU4E

1/18/2019 17:10:54

I would be stoked to perform on the same bill as Fyodor!

1/18/2019 17:17:08

Adam, Fyodor and I have been discussing it this afternoon and it MIGHT very well happen! I'll let you know if it becomes a reality.

1/18/2019 17:38:22

EXCELLENT news!

1/17/2019 12:52:11

Little Fyodor, as great as it is to see and hear the Apartment Music shows on-line, nothing beats being there in person. Highly recommended!

1/17/2019 22:35:03

Oh yes, well of course you're right, Leslie! It's a long and pricey way for me to go, but I'm sure I'll do it (again) someday! I'll have to chew on the idea some to sort out what'll work for me......

Fantastico!! all the participants very good. I really liked Shelby Radcliffe's Drone-Ambient. Congratulations to all.

An especially special Apartment Music. It was a real treat to have Leslie Singer perform and visit with us! What a great set! Indeed, great sets all around (though not going to toot my own horn there). It means so much to me to be involved in these shows, when it is amazing just to be there to listen and to observe. Every show makes me feel like I have been baptized by sound, as it were. I come away refreshed, enlivened, and ready to create more sounds. Thank you, Hal! Thank you all!
