Composition

"We were all embracing the political content of the music, versus issuing the traditional and conventional...Our approaches varied. We used sounds prevalent at the time and played in a free form. Our resources were expanded as we set out to re-examine the music. The apex for me came at a concert we had in Antibes. There were great moments at that show where we combined pulses with a great deal of freedom within a fixed form. Bobby was doing these incredible cadenzas."

Personnel

gollark: https://pastebin.com/SPyr8jrh has a rough specification.
gollark: The eXtensible Tape Metadata Format.
gollark: You should consider making your thing write XTMF-compatible metadata. It supports a `speed` thing for playback, so any XTMF player would be able to play it back right and seek to tracks and such.
gollark: Is your software XTMF-compatible?
gollark: Sadly I can't play because I'm on a really bad internet connection.
