A musical collaboration happening across time and across the globe.
Sign ups are open! Request to join by posting to the free jazz thread on BBJ.
We are a group of townies making freely improvised music together. We call it 'free jazz' but it goes beyond jazz. It can sound like anything, and the only rule is to express yourself.
To get an idea, listen to the previous track we recorded. Of course, this year's track will sound different, because it's improvised. It won't came out the same way twice. And besides, it might have another musician playing on it (you).
You can join if you can make a sound. You can play any instrument you want, and no talent is required.
Since we can't be together in person, the improvisation is not done in real time. We take turns: One person records a track, then sends it to another, who records another track on top of it. The second person sends their recording to a third person, but without including the first. When everyone's had their turn, we mix down all the tracks, and the final product is revealed. It's like the surrealist game 'exquisite corpse' but for music.
Request to join by adding to the free jazz thread on BBJ. Then join #freejazz in the town chat. Malvarma will bug you when its your turn.
