| [1] "Uitti/Vitiello" on JdK productions jdkprod@xs4all.nl is a fascinating mini cd filled with controlled improv and an effervescent freeform art of noises makes a "magical world of micro dynamics, swirling dervishes of harmonic twists, hoarse melodies on the Mongolian violin add to the mystery of this exposed-nerve musical world. A 20-minute journey through a land not yet inhabited...." | |
| [2] "The Sun Myth" on Magic Music out of Germany before the wall fell. I took the percussive elements here and added them to Uitti/Vitiello piece to give it a mode of sonic transport to move it in a certain direction. | |
| [3] "Zo" on Rise Records / Dutch East Indies with William Parker on bass and Shipp on piano takes very elegant turns all over the improv place. | |
| [4] "Vienna Sänger Kraben Sing Songs To Greet The Germans Into Their Land" Rollicking Biergarten tunes and Ubermensch Marches. Enjoy and profit from the occupation. On His Master's Voice. | |
| [5] "In The Loop" on their own label www.fingerpaint.net is spatial soundtrack music for those movies which make the internal organs of a human being as seen through the eye of a body probe look like outer space. | |
| [6] "Old And New Dreams" Don Cherry with Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Ed Blackwell. One of the first - that I know of - uses of the natural ambience of whale songs. Before ambient abused the songs of whales and New Age all but murdered them. Further proof that Don Cherry was a world musician who went far and wide to discover new places and instruments and accompanists to jam with - in this case big blowing sea mammals. Also worked with the varied likes of Rip, Rig & Panic, Albert Ayler, Arto Lindsay, Heiner GF6bbells, Lou Reed ["The Bells" which I saw at the Bottom Line], Ian Dury, Sun Ra, Brion g7ysin and many many others. For a complete discography http://www.harmolodic.com/related/dcherry2.html | |
| [7] "Anoraks" by Penumbra Universal Egg http://wobblyweb.com/ueindex psychick meets silver apple. Soundings from another galaxy. Like sounds from an alien force we haven't yet been able to interpret as music. | |
| [8] A Jazz ensemble known for its ability to cross borders, jam with the locals and make world jazz that enters a trance state; jazz that knows no limits. Also check this site for more on Cherry: http://www.acns.nwu.edu/jazz/artists/cherry.don/ | |
| [9] "Maps of Tenderness" otic@earthlink.net is a brilliant disc of sound and listening strategies based loosely on the Situationist notion of the DE9rive which would reorient a cityscape back toward the needs of a rich interior life. Where vectors and traffic could be renogotiated according to our wishes and dreams rather than efficient arteries of commerce. Here it is applied to the notion of passive listening made active: Labelle writes: "perception somehow fixes itself around a point of stability, gravitates a focal pointwhich is one's body - carnal vessel within and through which the fluctuations of sensual experience are held. Sound-making extends the perceptual process of listening and focuses it into a cultural process." | |
| [10] "NewOrder in Vienna" by the Vienna Philharmonic conducted by Willi Boskovsky on Decca. | |
| [11] "Codona 2" Recorded in1980 with: Collin Walcott, Sitar, Tabla, Vocals, Tympani; Don Cherry, Trumpet, Doussn' Gouni, Vocals, Melodica; Nana Vasconcelos, Berimbau, Talking Drum, Percussion, Voice. Beautiful. | |
| [12] "Don Cherry" on A & M in 1976 with Charlie Haden, Hakim Jamil, Billy Higgins, Frank Lowe, Ricky Cherry, Bunchie Fox, Verna Gillis, Moki Cherry. Includes also Brown Rice which had a large impact on my youthful ears back then. This is all racy beautifully rendered takes on African tales. | |
| [13] "Redpath House" on Universal Egg http://wobblyweb.com/ueindex The extrapolated connections between electronics and ecstasy, mixing and psychedelic experience - one approximates the other at the fertile doorway called the inner ear. How does sound trigger deepseated memories of alternate consciousnesses? | |
| [14] don't know much about Audio Sports and the Space Invaders. SI sound like Japanese grind-core Culturcide with the early delinquent naughtiness of Beastie boys. Really raucous, gut-wrenching chuckling upchuck. Courtesy of Jose Padua | |
| [15] "Digital Hut: Noisecore volume 1" mixed and played by Doormouse on Brooklyn Music Limited www.bmlentertainment.com is rousing throbbing thumping energy at its rampant most glorious. Makes punk rock seem like Sonny Bono in a Piper Cub. Drone + 200 BPM = adrenaline. | |
| [16] This piece is an ingenious manipulation of a sample from a George Bush speech where he tries to appeal to the macho fo the mass population when he quotes the stadium anthem "We Will Rock You" by Queen. They try to turn it into a mantra or subliminal suggestion. | |
| [17] "It's Very Stimulating" an EP by Paul Barman on Word Sound www.wordsound.com is pure punk insouciance that has a high school exuberance for word play, sounds like Huntz Hall and the Bowery Boys meets early Beastie Boys or a hepped up Jonathan Richman. Prince Paul, who produced De La Soul, now presents the herky jerky bathroom writing on the wall spitball rhyming of Paul Barman. Very very funny like the best of the son of George Carlin set to De La Soul minimal beats. | |
| [18] This mixmaster of sampling and splicing is pure political hiphopped punk. One of the best compositions of snippets since Coldcut reinvented Eric B. & Rakim. This seering screed of soul attacks just about every injustice ever perpetrated - it seems as it gives the entire history of USA race relations and racism. It samples everyone from James Brown to Mayor Daley, MLK, RFK, Malcolm X, | |
