Three years ago was the last time I did any kind of “year’s review” of aural nourishment, and I sort of feel the need to do it again.

Back in the mid 90’s before I ever got into techno music, I owned the original VHS copy of Peter Greenaway’s 1983 release 4merican Composers (natch, “Four American Composers”) and watched it constantly while in music school; I think I probably saw the Cage movie no less than 10 times.
