CJ Boyd Remixes

About Me

Music in the age of mechanical reproduction has the peculiar task of maintaining its existence as essentially process despite an overwhelming tendency in consumer society to consider it a mere "product." This musical project has among its aims the exploration and emphasis of this processual aspect through the creation of an evolving album-a "product" that changes and grows. Each song takes new life under the hands of remixers. It is available for free at www.soundsareactive.com, where continuous new songs and revisions of old songs will also be available.

Influences: And indeed there will be time For the yellow smoke that slides along the street, Rubbing its back upon the window-panes; There will be time, there will be time To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet; There will be time to murder and create, And time for all the works and days of hands That lift and drop a question on your plate; Time for you and time for me, And time yet for a hundred indecisions, And for a hundred visions and revisions, Before the taking of a toast and tea.
Sounds Like: Dancing about Architecture. But if you want to check out the other sounds of the people who remixed this schnitzel, they're all in my "top friends". And if you want to hear the original songs that inspired the remixes, I guess you'll just have to buy my records. You can't download everything, you know. OK, maybe you can, but come on, I gotta eat too. You can buy some of my CDs in stores (if your local CD store doesn't have it, they should be able to order it), or at my website, or at shows (check my regular profile for dates--also in my "top friends").
