 |
| :: Posted by Sid Smith on Fri., Oct 9, 2009 |
On Tuesday 6th October, Crims of varying vintage gathered in Air Studios to listen to selections from the new surround sound mixes. Following an introduction from Robert Fripp, Steven Wilson gave a short talk about his approach to remixing the KC catalogue.
Alongside journalists from the UK, Japan, Poland, America and New Zealand, Peter Sinfield, Michael Giles, Mel Collins, David Cross, John Wetton and Bill Bruford, and Gavin Harrison heard 21st Century Schizoid Man, Epitaph, The Court of the Crimson King, The Battle of Glass Tears and Starless. By way of a preview for next year’s series of 5.1 mixes, Larks’ Tongues In Aspic Part One shook the walls and rattled the windows.

Congratulations to Stephanie Poe who told me that Sir Christopher Wren designed St Paul's cathedral. Her name was plucked out of the fickle fedora of fate and so she wins herself a copy of Robert Fripp's At The End Of Time for her troubles. Stay tuned for another great DGMLive giveaway!

Churchscapes On The Radio
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Thu., May 2, 2013
Robert Fripp was one of the artists featured on last evening's Late Junction show on BBC Radio 3. "Beautiful music" was how presenter Fiona Talkington described the selection of tracks from At The End Of Time. You can hear the show for the next seven days on the BBC iPlayer.
If you don't already own a copy then you've a chance to nab one for free. All you need to do is answer this simple question. What was the name of the celebrated architect who designed St.Paul's Cathedral in London where some of the above album was recorded?
Send your answer in an email marked Churchscapes to competitions@dgmlive.com. The lucky winner's name will be plucked from the fickle fedora of fate on Monday 6th May. You can read my take on the album over on the blog.

KC Radio
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Tue., Apr 30, 2013
My thanks to Andy Fox who spotted a reference to KC on BBC Radio 4 yesterday. "King Crimson reference on ’The 3rd Degree’, The Radio 4 quiz where a
team of three University students take on a team of three of their
professors. If you can’t wait for the Crimson question, it gets asked 13 minutes in to the podcast. The show is available to listen to for 7 days from the 29th April 2013 although it may be available to UK listeners only.
