In December 2007 and January 2008 Paul D. Miller aka went to Antarctica to shoot a film and make a large scale multimedia performance work that will be an acoustic portrait of a rapidly changing continent called "Terra Nova: the Antarctic Suite." The Antarctic Suite transforms Miller’s first person encounter with the harsh, dynamic landscape of Antarctica into multimedia portraits with music composed from the different geographies that make up the land mass. It's about the environment, sound, hip hop, electronic music and what it means to be a composer in the 21st century.

Wattstax chronicles the monumental 1972 concert—featuring Isaac Hayes, the Staples Singers, and Richard Pryor—Stax Records staged in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles.

UP, WHEEL UP, COME BACK, REWIND: TROJAN RECORDS
by Paul D. Miller
Trojan Records asked me to do a "selections" mix of their
archive, and these are the liner notes to the project. I spent almost
every summer when I was a kid in Jamaica, and all I can say is that
when I was putting together this compilation, it was kind of like
a time warp back to a different era. Check it!
