Saw them a few years ago and they rocked! Particularly their Salterello. So recently I decided to stick a Salterello loop on top of a breakbeat and play it at a party. I'm kind of into the result : http://www.synaesmedia.com/music/salt.mp3

So share your Duffey Collective thoughts, S/D, tell me that I suck, for vandalizing a great piece of music, whatever.

hmmm Phil ... I don't like to see your threads go unanswered, even when I don't know much about them. Wasn't Momus working with this lot circa 1999?

Robin,

I like to attribute that low response to "posting at the weekend when everybody else has better things to do like go out and oppose a war or something" rather than "everybody hates me" But I've been known to be wrong before.

I think Momus said he worked with them on The Little Red Song Book. However, I'd just like to point out at this point that I saw them, and bought their CDs, AGES before that. So it's not like my entire musical life is totally guided by Momus or anything!

Still, for people who don't know them, they're definitely worth checking out on a vibrant early music tip.

I always thought the Songbook was a totally solo thing and the Dufay Collective collaboration was on the proggish stuff he wrote for Kahimi Karie. But I could be completely wrong, of course.

It was only my own essential cowardice that stopped me going on the anti-war march. I fear I never have had the courage of my convictions.
