“You can’t have a Real Country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.”

- Frank Zappa quote from the door of Brewery Ommegang

Sleeping lamb at Drumlin Farm

I was in a goat barn with my kids when I heard the first murmurs from other parents: bombs…marathon…explosion. I quickly stepped outside to confirm the terrible news on twitter. I called family, reached out to friends and went back into the safety and peace of the barn and this sleeping lamb.

“The true Atlantis is inside you, just as it’s inside all of us. The sunken land is lost beneath the dark sea, lost beneath the waves of wet, black stories and myths that break upon the shores of our minds. Atlantis is the shadow-land, the birth-place of civilization. The fair land in the west that is lost to us, but remains forever, true birthplace and true goal.”

Jherek Bischoff tells Terry Gross about how he created an orchestral sound without a fill orchestra for his new album Composed:

I knew that I could make a really convincing version of an orchestra by layering each musician with themselves, just recording them over and over and over again until we had the sound of a real orchestra. … I would just ride my bike over to the violin player’s house and put some sheet music in front of her and have her record each part about nine times and build the sound of a full ensemble, and when I was done with that then I would bike ride over to the oboe player’s house and have her record and then just worked my way through the entire orchestra just recording each individual in their own living rooms.

So glad to see this humble genius get the recognition he deserves
