Sept 12

Variations on a theme by Casey & Finch is the winner of
The Drunkenboat Panliterary Awards for Sound in New York. This is the judge's comment from Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky:

"This track is absolutely brilliant! Based on the concept of a skipping CD, this piece is comprised of the samples from the chorus line of the KC and the Sunshine Band hit “That’s the Way I Like It” chopped up into small fragments, rearranged, scored for a 10 piece band, and then played and recorded live. Innovative and executed perfectly, it displays both depth of conceptual insight and musical precision. Funny without being corny, this was definitely one of the most refreshing things I’ve run across in a while. Most importantly for this competition, this track is both aesthetically and intellectually engaging - and would be even without any explaination: A powerful comentary on the interplay of music technology with the sound and structure of music itself. Short and to the point, this song embodies then philosophical and existential character of the Drunken Boat Panliterary awards. A must listen!"
