Colin Stetson is an unusually gifted sax player. He's worked or is working with Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, GY!BE, Bon Iver and others. He's opened for Arcade Fire, Tim Hecker, and The National. What's most unusual about Stetson is that he's able to make all the sounds you hear with one horn, utilizing no loops or overdubs.

17 Dots is a new blog by employees of

Brian Eno and David Byrne released
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts in 1981. It's a great album--and now it's available with a Creative Commons License. "
This is the first time complete and total access to original tracks with remix and sampling possibilities have been officially offered on line."
