Here’s his second mix “Strings”</span></p> <p><span>The long, resonant vibration of strings has been a constant throughout the history of music and, therefore, has been integral to the creation of experimental, avant-garde works as well. Just like the piano, stringed instruments have been modified, repurposed, and co-opted to create a stunning variety of sounds — from the ancient harps and droning tamburas of Mesopotamia to the violins and cellos of Renaissance chamber music. Tapping into this rich tradition, the sustained, harmonically complex tones of stringed instruments provide a gorgeous palette for the modern underground musicians represented here. —Brad Barry</span></p>http://blog.willbryant.com/post/49451714721http://blog.willbryant.com/post/49451714721Thu, 02 May 2013 14:05:55 -0500SoundCloudDazed DigitalBrad Barry<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/dc070d9f02b76f8c64fa553fb7e35a54/tumblr_mm4wgjav2D1qzoqcso1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/9eb96fa67807710683e8100da1e9f192/tumblr_mm4wgjav2D1qzoqcso2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f9d00de60212848fa5640c94ed1196b9/tumblr_mm4wgjav2D1qzoqcso5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0445102c229741cdbe2ac448ab50fcd2/tumblr_mm4wgjav2D1qzoqcso4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>I’ve started doing flyers for the east Austin venue, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/cheerupcharliesaustin?fref=ts" target="_blank">Cheer Up Charlies</a>! If you can’t tell, I’m having some fun.</p>http://blog.willbryant.com/post/49376252683http://blog.willbryant.com/post/49376252683Wed, 01 May 2013 14:21:55 -0500flyersillustration<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/789b3a0713b60be8015e59f2425c5b38/tumblr_mm38d8ixwI1qzoqcso1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Caught some people peeking in @renedidthis exhibition, Close Quarters- opens on Thurs too!
