한영애의 CD BEHIND TIME

이 CD를 듣었어요? 토요일 밤에, 공연 했고 우리 (서울 밴드 Plastic People의) 친구 김민규씨랑 작은 술집에갔어요. 밴드 같이 갔어요, 하지만 친구 이야기 했어서 나는 늦 왔어요. 그래서 밴드와 친구 술집에 만았어요? �n은 술집? 이름은 “술”인야고. 이 작은 술집 너무 좋았어요… 스타이을도 음악이 너무 좋아 했어요!!! 아줌마도 아저씨도 마났어요. 감자기 아주마는 노래 하는것 시작했고 너무 슬픈 노래 했어요. 기븐이 좋았어요. 그 밤에, “술”에, 특별 음악을 듣었어요: 한영애의 CD BEHIND TIME: A Memory Left at an Alley. 너무너무너무 좋아요. 한국의 옛날 노래 했고 새로운 장르를 만들었어요. 내 생각에는, 때때로 좀 Björk 같은 스타이을 이애요… 하지만 너무 다르다! 노래 한개 듣을수있어요: 이 것은 …

Listen to ME!

UPDATE (2 Feb. 2012): I’ve moved things around since 2003, including uploading some more music and also creative work from other fields. If you look up at the top of this page, you should be able to find links for all that. ORIGINAL POST: Okay, for people who skim… I’m gonna make this clear, because I mentioned it before but someone mentioned not seeing it. There are some recordings available on this website of me performing music. The Dabang Band tracks are probably very familiar, but the Apocrypha tracks may not be. So I’ve added them to my music section. …

Why Blog?

One of my friends recently asked me that question: Why blog? My response was pretty long, and pretty rambling… but it can be boiled down to the following, which I suppose is a kind of mission statement or even a Blogger’s Manifesto. The following is therefore my, well, whatever it is… Mission Statement or Blogger’s Manifesto or whatever. I blog because my thoughts are interesting. If you don’t believe me, I can show you my site traffic information, showing thousands of people come here every month. Failing my refuge in that, I can show you my thoughts. You can judge …

Last Night…

Last night we played one of the best shows I can remember in a long time. I don’t know why for certain, but I think it was partly because we were all a little bit in the mindset that everything was relaxed and cool. Most of the audience was people that someone in the band knew personally, and when we play for that kind of an audience, there’s a certain kind of “play” that goes on among us… we extend songs, we reprise bits of songs, we make musical jokes… like in the cadenza for one song, Myoung Jae started …

Tracks and Tracks

Right, I’ve made a huge addition to the list of sample tracks up for all kinds of music and musicians that I’m usually going on about to my friends. You can see this massive list in the left sidebar on this page, if you scroll down a little bit. The tracks are not all necessarily representative, meaning for example, the Johnny Hartman duo isn’t the track I would choose to represent John Coltrane, but all of these tracks are songs I happened to have kicking around on my webspace, plus some kicking around on other bands’ webspaces. (Most of the …
