Psychopomp is nuts! You're saying their Zappa sounds better than that Cu2+ brass arrangement? Because that version is crazy good and now I'm even more hyped to hear Bloo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and Bluecoats trumpets have invented an entirely new mute! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this talk about Doug Thrower reminds me that I just realized today that he is also arranging the brass book for Pacific Crest! I forget if he was appointed to this position this year or last year, but at any rate I can't wait to hear his brass arrangements for that corps (and the Bluecoats, of course)! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurassic Lancer Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) So tonight Bloo worked on some technical issues ... balance of an octet in Psychopomp which is now much improved ... and balance / technical issues with Grow 'Till Tall ... problems solved. The corps has pushed through the opening of Zomby Woof though there is clearly lots of layers to be added to both One Study and the beginning of Zomby Woof. All the while, more changes were made to improve an already strong first seven minutes of the show. The process Bloo uses to construct their show is fascinating to say the least.
