60x60 - Alternate Mixes

Alternate Mixes

The project uses grassroots ideology to grow and promote its mission to expose electroacoustic music. When the project receives more than 60 compositions of a particular theme or from a particular region, the project creates a themed mix to be represent that subsection of its submissions. The project has created many different mixes besides its main "International Mix" which is a representative selection of the entire submissions made to the project for that year. Alternate Mixes created by the 60x60 project include: the Athena Mix, the Canada Mix, the UnTwelve Mix, the Presenters Mix, the Pacific Rim Mix, Midwest Minutes Mix, New York Minutes Mix, UK Mix, Munich Mix., the Order of Magnitude Mix (a special 10 hour installation mix of 60x60 containing 600 one minute works each by different composers and was named the Most Composers Programmed In A Single Show by The Universal Record Database) and the 2010 ICMC RED Mixes.

Famous quotes containing the word alternate:

    Boswell, when he speaks of his Life of Johnson, calls it my magnum opus, but it may more properly be called his opera, for it is truly a composition founded on a true story, in which there is a hero with a number of subordinate characters, and an alternate succession of recitative and airs of various tone and effect, all however in delightful animation.
    James Boswell (1740–1795)
