From the album Rick Moody and One Ring Zero

Listen to "Metal" - 7:44 MP3: Streaming(128 kbps) | Download (7 mb) REAL AUDIO: SureStream (28.8 - 44 kbps) The backing band is One Ring Zero. I played the theremin myself. We recorded the vocal first, and the music is was improvised to live playback. I originally wrote the piece for a literary magazine that was putting together an issue of responses to heavy metal.

Listen to "Whosoever" - 14:03 MP3: Streaming(128 kbps) | Download (12.8 mb) REAL AUDIO: SureStream (28.8 - 44 kbps) The written part is from the opening of my novel, PURPLE AMERICA. Also improvised by One Ring Zero, but the opening musical theme, which comes back at the end, I composed myself.

From WNYC's The Next Big Thing

"Alamo: A Radio Play" - 09/10/2004
"Pirate Station" - 02/04/2005
"Boys" - 02/28/2001
"Canon" - 01/26/2002

All of my pieces for The Next Big Thing were collaborations. Meredith Monk provided some old and some new music for "Boys." The reader is Julia Slavin. "Canon" was made with my fellow Wingdale Community Singer, Hannah Marcus. "Pirate Station" features the voice of John Lurie and production/engineering by Sherre DeLys. "Alamo" was a rather gigantic project, mostly directed and produced by myself and Bruce Odland. There are many different voices included therein, among them Miranda July and Ethan Hawke. None of these pieces would have been made without the aid and counsel of Dean Olsher and Emily Botein.
