More info:
This collection (remastered 2008) includes tracks from 5 sessions by The Dunlaps: 1985, ‘86, ‘87, ‘88 and 2005. All tracks except “Moments had” (2005) were originally recorded direct to stereo cassettes under relatively primitive recording conditions. Tracks 3, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12 and 14 were spontaneous improvisations recorded in single takes with no overdubs (there was a bit of subsequent remixing done to the beginning of “Abridged”). On the other tracks overdubs were improvised and mixed “on the fly” while copying from one cassette deck to another. In some cases (trks 1 & 5) additional accompaniments were pre-recorded or sequenced (using samplers’ on-board sequencers) and flown into the mix live while improvising. The percussion on trk 1 was recorded to 2 short answering-machine cassette loops of different lengths. “Moments had” was recorded in 2 improvised takes to 4-trk cassette multi-track then treated and remixed by RDunlap in digital software. “To Walk a Thousand Lands” was originally an RDunlap solo recording, overdubbed with sax and additional percussion by The Dunlaps.

Frank-o: saxophone, guitar, sampler, flute, synthesizer (rhythm part on trk 2), percussion.
RDunlap: synthesizer, sampler, guitar (trks 5 & 6), percussion.
Flies: buzzing the mic (trk 2).

03252017 Basic Nature (Rhythm Elements) SET 6

electric dadalaland

An elaborate production from when we were still performing overdubs on-the-fly while bouncing from one cassette deck to another, this involved Frank and Richard reading dialogue between a philosopher and a physicist (with the remarks in reverse order). Each also selected and sampled individual words and played them during one of the overdubs. Frank: alto sax. Richard: electric guitar, bass sequence (sampled combination of guitar and synthesizer). Both played percussion. Recorded at Frank's place (aka "The Long Room", a former cow-milking barn made of concrete) in Ashland, Oregon, 1987.

From the album "Reunions"

The Dunlaps - Remembrances

From the album "Reunions"
Liner notes - https://dadalamusic.com/files/1111132/thedunlaps-reunion-linernotes.jpg

This track was always one of Frank's particular favorites.
Recorded at Frank's place (aka "The Long Room", a former cow-milking barn made of concrete, in this instance filled with flies, some of whom contributed to the piece by buzzing the mic) in Ashland, Oregon, 1986. Frank played the main keyboard part (distorted synthesizer), alto saxophone, and percussion (the good parts). Richard played additional synthesizer embellishments and percussion (the sloppy bits), and performed live mixing and effects manipulation on Frank's sax.

"SOCIALLY DISTANT since 2004"

Free-Fusion Avant-Ambient Glitch-Jazz Post-Post-Rock Electro-Acoustic Improv-Collage.

Since 2009 dadala has been a long-distance ensemble blending improvisation with digital alchemy, collage and serendipity. 

RDunlap produces, edits, arranges/mixes/remixes recordings from members @loopy-c @Erocnet @r369improv with past members and contributors including @darius-improvise @brass-lines @johann-meier-471100500 @michael-chocholak and RDunlap's brother Frank Dunlap.

Earlier dadala (2004-2008) was more specifically a remix project using already-existing recordings from an eclectic assortment of internet artists and RDunlap's own archive from 1985-1996 (solo and with friends/brother).
