Throngs of Velociraptors, from "Velocirapture"

Remix by Daniel Neumann, Sound Engineer of Alarm Will Sound, of Matt Marks performing "Spagliato" by Oren Ambarchi (arranged by Marcos Balter). Matt's performance is from May 9, 2018. This would be Matt's final concert, he passed away May 11. 

From Daniel:
"I spend the day yesterday listening to the horn track from our Wednesday concert and I was struck by Spagliato (Ital.: wrong, error, mistaken..). I couldn't stop listening to it and ended up making a remix, an attempt to extend his notes, sustaining them. I named it:: Spagliato, for Matt Marks (gated solo horn with artificial reverberation DNremix). No pressure to listen though, if it seems too early or wrong. Just wanted to share, in case someone finds it helpful as an anchor for their grief, which it provided for me."

Finch and composers, Ljova, Dorian Wallace, and Alyssa Weinberg talked with Daniel Gilliam about the inspiration for their new pieces, and Louisville's welcoming spirit for new music.

"When I Get Home" had so much heat on it. This is a rendition of what my ears heard through my listening experience. Enjoy and please feel free to tell me whatcha think!
