Voice Is The Original Instrument was the first record released by Joan La Barbara in 1976 on Wizard Records. This is the first time the original LP, with artwork, has been made available again. It has since become iconic as one of the initial examples of extended vocal techniques in experimental music. The human voice is the only instrument on the recordings. The works on Voice is the Original Instrument were some of Joan's earliest compositions, researching the possibilities of the voice, in two rigorous études, "Circular Song" and "Voice Piece: One-Note Internal Resonance Investigation", and the more free-form "Vocal Extensions", which uses live electronic processing. "My reason for producing the LP was to get my music out to the world beyond NYC and the major cities in which I was playing concerts," she says. "At that time, Carla Bley and Michael Mantler had started JCOA/New Music Distribution Service which handled small independent labels, so there were quite a few artists in the NYC area who were producing their own albums and distributing them through that service." Just out of college and living in a Soho loft in New York, Joan began playing shows in New York with jazz and rock musicians, and with those in the new music scene. "I did commercials, which, strangely enough, led me to Steve Reich," she says. "A composer I was working with, Michael Sahl hired me to do some radio commercials and suggested me to Reich who was looking for singers who could imitate instruments, which was something I had been working on for some time and was part of my exploration of the voice. I worked with Reich on the development of "Drumming", imitating the marimba."

BUY THIS!
I WISH i took a before and after photo of my results because the speed of which this worked was insane. Although I encourage to use the product as the package instructs you to, I just needed to share how well it worked for me and how I used it. I began applying the cleanser specifically to my acne prone areas on my face (between my eyebrows, above my lips etc) and allowing it to sit for 15-30 minutes before washing it off then moisturizing immediately after during the night time. in the morning, i cleansed those same areas once more and moisturized with spf 25 sun protection to protect my skin from dryness and repeated those steps each night for the next 3 days. 1 night i decided to just leave the cleanser on my acne prone/scarring areas and the morning after, the most stubborn scar on my face was literally GONE. it was insane. needles to say, this product worked so well for me. instantly cleared up my acne, by scarring, and stubborn bumps on my face. don’t forget to moisturize and use sun protection though because salicylic acid is in fact very drying for your skin. love this product. highly highly highly recommend.

Did the formula change?
I had ordered a travel kit of this product around christmas and it seemed to work really well. I was only really using the cleanser from the kit, and I ran out so I decided to order more. I feel like this isnt the same as what was in the kit. Ive been constantly breaking out since using this bottle. I dont know if the formula changed or what, but I can't use it anymore.

I like this brush
Style: Medium Dog, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I'd used the thumb brush, the slanted brush and a human soft-bristled toothbrush on my dog over the course of four years. I hate those thumb silicone brushes because my fingers are slim so it slides everywhere. The slanted one is cool. But I got so used to being able to use this collection of human soft-bristled toothbrushes that I'd gotten from the dentist. This one felt weird at first. My dog didn't really understand what I was putting in her mouth and jerked back. We'd gotten a system down for how far back to go so I wasn't knocking her gums and held her jaw out to see her teeth. It's weird not having to do that anymore. I like the brush now. It's a little pricier than other dog toothbrushes. I think if I hadn't used human toothbrushes (and gotten so many compliments from dog vets who didn't know that was what I was using), I would've started off with this one. I'll probably use it again after the three months. Not sure yet.
