SubVersion presents: Greg Haines & Alexander Thomas - Friday 28th May 2010

Big up Muttley, really enjoyed the show.

...

Thank you Mike for organising this and your family for being such wonderful hosts.

Lovely to have you Shiva. Thanks a lot for the kind words. Seeing you again since we met on New Year's in 2007 was a great pleasure.

Pictures for the absent and memories crew (can someone rotate the last and help me resize these? ):

Alexander Thomas - When he first started playing I was a bit unsure whether this was just some guy layering up loops with peddles. But as his performance progressed a story of evolving soundscapes that represented different feelings started to emerge. It actually felt like a war. His control on the Theremin was excellent.

Alexander using the Theremin: (waiting for resize on every picture)

This feels a long long time ago now. And for the time period soon after, I heard or saw nothing from Greg. But he's back with a film scores mix for Fluid Radio this week:

Here is a small mix of film music that I compiled without too much of a plan or concept – I just looked through my shelves of music one dark and rainy afternoon and let the music find me.

There are pieces from some of my favourite movies, some from movies I have never seen, and even one from a movie that I saw and didn’t even like – but the soundtrack is great! Some people find it strange that I sometimes buy soundtracks without ever having seen the film, but in making this mix I began to see the purpose – Greg Haines
