[5]
"Love is the Devil" on Asphodel / KAB | |
|
[2]
"Prayer / Salvation" on Ninja Tune | |
| [3] "Chance: A Chance Operation - The John Cage Tribute," interesting people who help carry Cage part of the way out of the rarefied zone of Musical Pantheon arteest and they make Cage [almost] entertaining. With Kronos Quartet, Jackson MacLow, Ken Nordine, Laurie Anderson, Yoko Ono, Oregon, Dave van Tieghem, Robert Ashley, Frank Zappa, John Cale & others... | |
| [4] "1996 / Ryuichi Sakamoto" on Milan / BMG is a collection of mostly soundtrack excerpts. It has a very classical feel and sometimes heaves over into bathos and schmaltz. Here one can see how a member of the Japanese Kraftwerk becomes the Japanese Nino Rota... Includes main themes from The Last Emperor, Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence, The Sheltering Sky, etc. | |
| [5] Hi-Tech / No Crime on Internal Records is a mixed bag of Yellow Magic Orchestra remakes by a group of dance music big beat proselytizers. Most of this 1992 compilation sounds pretty dated. There are some fun and tongue-in-cheek and some heavenly takes on YMO though most notably LFO dismantling La Femme Chinoise, the Robert Gordon repowered YMO cover version of Archie Bells & the Drells' "Tighten Up" [talk about replicants and copies-of-copies-of copies] also 2 versions of the YMO cover of the Martin Denny piece of hyperactive exotica, "Firecracker" and 2 Orb lowdown deep dub remixes of "Tong Poo". | |
| [6] "BGM / YMO" on Alfa is there 1981 disc which includes some real other worldly pop with some vocals sounding like Space Oddity Bowie. The joy and ambiguity of cross-hatched musics | |
|
[7]
"While Playing Chess With The Former Artist" by Marc Sloan, Offshore
Rec. | |
| [8] "Iron Mushroom" on Wagon Train Records is Gawk [Sloan / Joe Trump / Gregory Kitzis / Alex Smith] at its dark and most metal-bound muscley. For every lilting melody there appears something hard and ready to beat it back down to the ground. Not for the faint eared. | |
| [9] "Gawquar Tetes" on Askance is Marc Sloan and guests improvising and creating ambiences cluttered with free jazz metal. The mindscape is a busy treacherous region. | |
| [10] Tongue on Offshore Gawk as Marc sloan again plus guests including Reed Ghazala, Joe Trump, Elliot Sharp and others. This is a collection of interesting tidbits that flies all over the sonic firmament and bounces around in your cranium like a game of Pong. Collected from the earliest records like "Yeow" and "Oxowl" in 1985 to material from 1997's "Bucolic." | |
