free improv mashup


the source material for this track is excerpts from a citta di vitti (see 10/19/08 post) live show (thanks to michael zelner for great live recording) and an improvised duet with john schott on guitar and me on lloopp. I dumped them into ableton and did a "slice to new midi track" and triggered that with midi game of life.
