Just a Bunch of Music II

Downloads: [MP3 | OGG | FLAC]

I’ve been compiling a lot of music to play on the CerebralMix, and I am preparing to start working with some more thematic material again. However, in the meantime this week I just went through the backlog of stuff that I’ve accumulated over the last several months to put together a set of music that is funky, rocks, and grooves.

Closing Notes

Special thanks go out to Amy for turning me on to Triplexity.

Next weekend is the Ohio Linux Festival, but that doesn’t mean that the Cerebral Mix will be taking a break. Instead, the show must go on, and things are already in place for Episodes 16 & 17.

That’s all for this week. I hope you will join me again next week for another adventure into the sounds between thoughts on The Cerebral Mix.

The guitar is possibly one of the most unique instruments in music. It’s roots can be traced back approximately 3,300 years. Throughout history, there have been many names for instruments of similar construction (if not always similar in timbre and tone): oud, lute, cithara, and vihuela just to name a few.

The emergence of what could be seen as the modern acoustic (or classical) guitar occurred in about the 12th century in Europe. However, after the Baroque period, the guitar seems to have fallen out of favor until it reemerged in the 1800s.

The electric guitar dates from the 1930s. It’s first application was in the country swing bands of the period, allowing it to produce sound of equal volume to the rest of the band. Adoption of the electric guitar in jazz and rock assured that it was an instrument with a long road ahead of it.

This week, the first of a series of occasional shows, we present both acoustic and electric guitars in settings as diverse as progressive rock, ambient, jazz, death metal, blues, and more. So be prepared for just about anything in the world of the guitar, this week, on the CerebralMix.
