Talk:Kevin Drumm

Discography

• I pulled the discography from discogs.com and made some minor formatting changes. I plan to expand on this article later. Excessivereason 21:08, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
• Discography is incomplete, I will update it in the next few days. The majority of it is there though. Excessivereason 22:49, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
• My name is also Kevin Drumm, but I'm currently 18 and in high school. Maybe I could be the next Kevin Drumm. Pretty soon I'll be partying in Ann Arbor, so you can find me there.

addition ideas

there's a good Drumm discography here: [1]

it'd also be good to note John Cage when mentioning "prepared piano"

Kevin Drumm's shift from improvisor to working with walls of massive sound could be noted - he went from internationally recognized improvisor that dealt with space and nonlinear musique concrete (we could link that too) and from there he went into huge-sounding distorted drones after his Sheer Hellish Miasma Cd - though one of his earliest recordings, Organ (on the Comedy CD) did signal that kind of a direction in his work - but it was a while until he picked that thread back up with what he has been currently doing.

We could also put in Donald Miller (of Borbetomagus) as a notable "prepared guitar" player that likely had an influence on Drumm's playing.

...and another thing, the use of "prepared" anything is kind of loaded in that it references John Cage's incorporation of piano "preparations" for use in composed pieces - with the use of different ways of playing and using different objects to play a guitar by improvising musicians it definitely is related to Cage's "prepared piano" but the purpose of it seems different to me.

We could also reference P16.D4's "Acrid Acme", The New Blockaders, and Merzbow as early influences as well as Drumm's love of Iron Maiden and heavy metal - these are good sonic reference points for his "sound" (check out the Stylus Magazine interview for the early references).

a really interesting musician! It seems that his sound was influenced by musique concrete, heavy metal, noise, improvisation (european free improv and stuff like Borbetomagus), as well as him playing and collaborating with horn players and learning how to mimic some of those sounds.

can whoever started this wiki delete it? thanks kmd — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.140.146.172 (talk) 01:18, 20 May 2013 (UTC) .... Haha... it doesn't work that way, Kevin! 99.44.150.153 (talk) 05:55, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
