| this is the last creel pone of the year folks (...and what a year it’s been !!!) - enjoy the break for the next few weeks, sit back and spend some quality time with the creel pones on hand, or go back and check out some of the ones you’ve missed... i’m told that creel pone will resume its regular schedule halfway into january 2007 with a pretty ridiculous set of new reproductions. until then...
here we have a 1971 vedette library lp, credited to one “h. tical”, contaning a set of fugue-state-inducing song-length pieces for synthesizer (vcs3, if i know my synths...); minimal and mostly free-time, this is gnarly, distorted stuff consisting of lonely sweeps of ring-modulated grankle, drippy spring-reverbed rhythm patterns, and hostile, filtered white-noise.
i used to be mystified as to how library records such as this came to exist, let alone be commissioned in the first place... but this does do a bang-up job at evoking some barren void of a landscape, alien or otherwise. in a way its the polar opposite of the tod dockstader library music creel pones; a closer comparison would be to imagine the individual synthesizer parts from the pierre henry “mise en musique” creel pone laid bare and given the full frequency spectrum to gnaw at the temple.
not the easiest-on-the-ears of the recent creel pone series by a long-shot... but if you’re feeling some vapor-trail dust and/or the raw, unpolished voltage of early synthesizer blat, this could be your magic rainbow-arc... |
| | creel pone press release... |
| this creel pone edition includes:
1 x crystal-clear resealable polypropylene cd sleeve with a black / silver foil stamp affixed to the exterior
1 x single-sided six-color inkjet-printed hand-cut glossy-photo-stock booklet
1 x four-color inkjet-printed compact disc recordable in a high-density round-bottom cd sleeve
...
the sixteen (16) titles included in this album are each an abstract measure of sound and rhythm defying description and have been created according to the new concept of recorded library music initiated in the preceding album (see vsm 38547) and were especially composed in response to the demand for original electronically-generated, synthesized sound asnd rhythms.
the absolute originality of both the sound and colour of the titles herein and their possibilities for application to an unlimited number of situations have induced the publishers once again to avoid classification in order to allow programmers and producers the full use of their own imagination.
repetition of rhythm and sound patterns were rationally constructed in order to offer the possibility of quick selection and use over an arc of time longer than the actual duration of the title through repetition without complicated splicing and editing.
music and electronic effects by h. tical
recorded at the 3d - electronic music center.
