André 3000 is one of the greatest rappers of our time. He spoke to Hanif Abdurraqib from The Bitter Southerner magazine about freedom, fame, flutes, and if André will make another rap album. "I can only give what I’m feeling," he says.
Pretty easy show for the pit. However, Phil Zahorsky at one point gave me good advice. “You are trying to make your flute as loud as your saxophone. You need to back off and play at a relaxed, easy volume. It will carry, and we have milkes. Your sound will be much better.”
This was the first show I played after my first child was born. The number of shows I play from this point forward will go way down, since music is not my day job.

It's a glitchy, experimental trio for flute, clarinet, and MIDI keyboard/Max. There are Morse code and other ham radio samples, electric piano, and bowed cardboard box, and it's surprisingly groovy.
@reillypascal@synths congrats! Is it accurate to say that each composer was given the same source material (flutes, clarinets, etc) ? Seems like an interesting project.
Does anyone know of a decent #cello or #violin#midi#controller? So far I have only found so-called silent cellos/violins with built-in, synthesized and amplified sound engines. But I'd really be more interested in a pure #strings MIDI controller. The same goes for the #flute. If there's something well-built and reliable in that area, I'd be interested as well. 🤓️
OK, it's official. I am playing flute and saxophone with Una Canción Bonita at Cuatro Gato for South by Southwest, Tuesday, March 12, at 8:00 PM. Still pinching myself... #music#saxophone#flute#sxsw
This Sunday, Selene (Ambaran) and I will play Japanese sea musics on flutes & harps in the manga studio of "Keep In Mind" by Kim Houtzager in Nieuwegein.
