Loopers Delight 12-12-12 project

Loopers Delight 12-12-12 project


Released on March 31st, 2013: four hours of livelooping music!!!

This album was produced by a collective of artists, wanting to mark the last consecutive day in our lifetimes – 12.12.12. So on this day or around this day we came up with a piece, a lot of them 12 minutes long, with the theme 12.
