March 2009

Wow - March was really a prolific month here at The Daily Minute. Actually, in this month alone we've come close to doubling the number of minutes posted in all of 2008! The best thing is that so much of it has been truly interesting stuff:

The HaamPhist brought us compositions both slightly ominous and extraordinarily serene, and Azo introduced us to a dreamworld, as well as a truly interesting belly-based composition. Such cool stuff from these guys..

We were also lucky to see posts flying in from both sides of the USA - an outstanding guitar minute from CK and two awesome minutes from ThomaSean in paradise, both different but both somehow embodied with a certain sort of joyous experimentalism.

Aah, and this was also the month that Amorphati became part of the crew! He's been blowing minds left and right since the moment he arrived... :)

Lastly, it's also been a creative month for both myself and Iwan! The 'Tross hit us with everything imaginable, from a Tanzanian Lullaby to a masterfully played Birthday Minute, from electronic to acoustic and everything inbetween. I was even lucky enough to play some small role in an experimental minute of Iwan's that I ended up loving. As for me, I posted a few things that I am actually proud of.

All in all? An amazing month. If our shared creativity continues to blossom like this? Damn... it's gonna be a very interesting place to be. Thanks to everyone involved, and to everyone who is listening! :)

Yeah, i just wanna chime in and say that i have also really enjoyed the music that you've shared here. From Haamphist's delicate tendrils to Azo's bizarre musical antics to Amorphati's cool as ice electronics to Thomesean's minutes from paradise and CK's guitar vamp it has been awesome music all around. I hope y'all do continue to contribute!

Also, Jeff, you seem to have neglected * cough false modesty * to mention your sublime breathe easy minute as well as your insane counterpointnshoot minute!
