Thanks James. He wrote an intersting poetic memoir called Trolling With the Fisher King. I think you would like that especially. He practiced Jungian therapy and organized an annual jazz festival. Yes, a very interesting writer and poet.
I don’t play out of tune — I’m doing microtones! :) I think drones, in music and in life, can be a bit unsettling. Why do they keep going on? Where is the resolution? It’s all tension. I do like them for effect.
That de Poutine album though, I love their energy! I’m not sure I want to buy their record though. If I heard it before I saw it I’m not sure I would like it.
A note is just an arbitrary point on a spectrum of sounds, right? In Indian Classical music tradition they have way more possible notes than in equal temperament…
I dont care for military drones, but I find music drones to be the opposite if unsettling. Meditative, relaxing, soothing… and the fact that they go on for a long time means you can really trance out and get into drone zone.
Slide guitar and pedal steel are great for all the inbetween sounds.

Once again, you provide quite a few fun rabbit holes to go down. Thanks again, Justin! Paul Pine's work looks very interesting.
