Jesse, i'm not home or i'd get the title. maybe it's the same album...but the tape i have has two 1/2-hour sides of very close variations on that track you played. it's very good for falling asleep.
the one i get it confused with also varies little from beginning to end, and it's mostly acoustic stringed instruments...augmented by the sound of an infant crying!
@Rev Rabbit, that's my understanding. Like a percussion ensemble. Some are pretty large I think. I've really only ever seen non-traditional gamelans in person
When I lived in Santa Barbara, CA - there were possibly two local Gamelan societies - one official UCSB & another a rogue splinter group by some guy. I used to see a lot of World Music when I lived there (sigh)...
i've actually never seen a gamelan performance, though i've tinkered with a few of the different instruments a few times. i was invited to join a gamelan orchestra in upstate ny but unfortunately the rehearsal nights are on a week night (tuesday?) when i'm out of town, working.
Thanks everyone, I feel very well serviced
@coelacanth, we transitioned from banging on bells to synth bells to banging on boxes and things and soon to be bowing boxes and bells are coming back
Thank you. now that i'm up to speed i can make the informed decision to give this episode a gold star and revisit it in the near future. (rather than the intuitive one to do the same, that i would've made)
The restaurant is in Spain but not really of Spain as far as I can tell. I didn't include any of the foams they make, maybe next week for people who need a break from the election
