INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK
Monday 12/28 and the weekend of January 2nd
AN INTERVIEW WITH BANCO DE GAIA
It was 20 years ago that Toby Marks and Andy Guthrie formed Banco De Gaia, an ambient oscillation that has fused techno and ethnic music, psychedelic moods and ambient designs. Only Toby Marks remains and he's just released a double CD called Memories, Dreams, Reflections that features covers of music that influenced him by Pink Floyd and King Crimson, classic Banco tracks revisited, and live performances. Toby Marks looks back at 20 years of edgy bliss.

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH BEN NEILL
When Ben Neill mounts the stage, the only musician there is Ben Neill. But then the sound of trumpets multiplies and morphs as Neill plays his custom instrument, the mutantrumpet. Neill triggers electronics and transforms the sound of an instrument that is already bizarre, with three different bells, two sets of valves, a mini-trombone slide and electronics. He makes it hard on himself, but it sounds great when he plays live on Echoes.

AN INTERVIEW WITH CHRIS BOCAST
Chris Bocast is a journeyman guitarist who plays ambient guitar. When he was living in Colorado, he teamed up with MJ Catalin, a Romanian drummer and electronic musician. The two have never met, but they create a virtual ensemble ambient sound on their album, Stratagem, which was our Echoes CD of the Month for August. Chris Bocast talks about his internet music collaboration.
