The July 2014 issue of Soundbytes Magazine (soundbytesmag.net) is now on-line.  It has two new reviews of mine.  One is of Pierre Schaeffer's "In Search of a Concrete Music" recently published in English translation by University of California Press.  The other is a review of Jacky Ligon's new FREE softsynth - XEN-FMTS2.  This synth is a treat for microtonalists and those who want to experiment with timbre and tuning.  Highly recommended.
