Hey world
Yesterday I did my first backyard ultra @sydneysbackyardultra
I hit my goal of 10 yards (67km) and happily stopped after that!
The biggest thanks to @denneyamt for being my chief mechanic!
Thanks to Baz and Ginger for the help and inspiration - Baz is still going now! Insane! @aaronbazflower

Harry Sutherland: wurlitzer, chamberlain
Novak Manojlovic: piano, reed organ
Dave Symes: bass
Blain Cunneen: additional recording, baritone guitar single notes

Sydney-based drummer, composer, and engineer Miles Thomas presented ‘You Are Here’ as part of Season XVII—a spacious new work for sextet exploring the threshold between composition and improvisation.

Described by Thomas (@milesytee) as guided improvisation, the piece unfolds through suggestion rather than structure. Each musician—Simon Ferenci (trumpet), Peter Farrar (alto sax), Matt Keegan @mattkeeganmusic (tenor sax), Novak Manojlovic @gentle_novak (piano), Brendan Clark @brendaniclark (bass), and Thomas himself on drums—responds in real time to subtle cues, letting instinct shape the arc of the work.

Rooted in Thomas’s long-standing fluency as both performer and studio engineer, ‘You Are Here’ privileges attentiveness over resolution. Sounds emerge, recede, and reconfigure—never in search of climax, but always moving with care.

Hey world
Here are some drums through the new @echofixaustralia FET Compressor EF-P5.
The EF-P5 is an awesome unit that can do a lot more than the usual 1176 fare
Great stuff from Echofix!
Some talking and playing footage of this on my back from the dead YouTube channel. Last video is from 13 years ago! Link in bio

#echofix #1176 #compressor #studio #drums #recording #jarrinborg #jarrinborgforprimeminister #icantbelieveiatethewholething #mustangsally #actualpudding #tashhag
