I was playing Mandolin through some weird digital effects tonight when I realized that
our washing machine was kicking out a pretty consistent groove (randomly, of course)
in 6/8.
I took a short lo fi video with audio of it jamming.
I just love when machine noises sound sentient............this is one of the better examples
of this phenomenae that I've heard.
Check out the dancing bottle of TIDE while you are at it.
Caution: this is a hefty download (100 megs.) so only attempt this if you have a good DSL or Broadband
connection, otherwise it will take forever and your stolen music downloads will slow to a crawl .

oh...............................and Merry Christmas everyone (if you celebrate it).
Here's to a wonderfully creative, healthy and happy 2008!!!!!
love, Rick

I remember hearing a Gerry Mulligan composition called "Maytag".
...with rhythm taken from the washing machine of that name.
