Panama City

Tonight, I'm playing at this fine event:

LOVE
tuesday, 20 march, 2007
7pm until
QT Hotel
125 west 45th street
(swimwear encouraged)

In other news, I just got back from Panama City, FL. Heavy.com flew me down there--they found me on the web--and I performed with nine other talents--a contortionist, a b-boy, a yoyo pro, etc. The crowd decided who was the hottest and who was the coolest, they decided I was the coolest, and I won a snowboard! The event was sponsored by Hot Tamales Ice. There is video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLwVMpq1euo. The event was on the beach, at a Spring Break party beach house, with a wakeboard demonstration in the afternoon. It was a lot of fun. I had a great time meeting, performing and chilling with everyone.
Before that, I was at Cornell, doing the live score to a dance performance. The piece involved ten different-style groups coming out and dancing, and I beatboxed for each one and tied everything together. We had great crowds all four performances, but man was it cold!
More soon,
Adam

Dear Friends and Fam,

I’ve been touring, having a great time in Ithaca, NY, as well as performing at Exploris Museum in Raleigh, NC, and Wake Forest University. Tonight is the third night of “N2 Da Fu Cha Cha,” the dance piece which I’m scoring with live beatbox, at Cornell University; it’s been going really well. Next week, I’ve been invited to perform for Heavy.com, at their unveiling of a new online video channel, “Circus of Awesome.” That’s in Panama City, FLA, which I’m looking forward to, after the Ithaca snow squalls and wind. Then I end up in DC for the East Coast Acappella Summit, performing and giving workshops with Yo Yo Beats(great beatboxer). This is Mar. 23-25.

In other news, Splicemusic.com is an online music editing, sampling and sharing site; they recently had a competition to mix music solely created from the voice, and I ended up winning the comp! You can check out my profile at http://www.splicemusic.com/user/amatta/

Also, I now have music for sale on my myspace page! so check it out, and download some stuff…
