Looping cello - part three hundred sixty seven

This piece really inspired me to try out looping and to look at artists like Zoe Keating.

The music is by Stephen Katz. Derek Snyder is the cellist. And you can get sheet music for this and other pieces at cellocelli.com.

Youtube broadcast phenomenon

No cellos today. Just a music video by a rock violinist and a group of people who are managing to make money by posting videos on Youtube. Check it out:


You can download the song off itunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/come-us-feat.-cant-stop-wont/id552979598

And get all the information off of Youtube.

Linnea Olsson - Swedish Looping Lesson


This is a delightful video made by the French Webzine, Le Cargo. Enjoy the French subtitles. You get a really good explanation for how she gets the multiple layers of music.

I like this version better than the official video. The official video definitely has an ABBA disco vibe.



Here are Linnea's sites:
