A combination of all the things I like, raising string lines, low bass lines and a minimalistic pattern a la Steve Reich – perfect. You can listen to it at Peter Gabriel’s web site.

Also, in a brief note, the voting for the Laurie Anderson remix contest has ended. I ended up on a 123rd place, which probably is what to expect from such an alternative mix. Now all hope is for the jury to appreciate it. Their picks will be announced on the 17th of June.
