Looper's Delight 11-11-11 Project

- english -

I've been always attracted by "concept compilations". So it has been a pleasure for me to be part of a compilation made by loopers celebrating and remembering the past date 11-11-11.

The initial proposal by Rick Walker posted in the Looper's Delight forum was:

Everyone on this list who feels like it, sets up their live looping rig somewhere and on Friday, November 11th at either 11:11 a.m. or 11:11 p.m.
they commence to play and record a live looping piece of music that last exactly 11 minutes long. Put an alarm clock up in front of you while you play.
This will be an 11 minute piece of music on 11/11/11 at 11/11 a.m. or 11/11 p.m., wherever one lives.

Sincerely I don't know if an event like this took place or not, but recently, Michael Peters collected the contributions of some artists of the Looper's delight community. Eachone recorded a track about 11 minutes long. The result is an interesting collection of sounds and visions around the livelooping world.
