david grubbs, act five, scene one - bc9 cd

act five, scene one is an hour-long instrumental piece that features the trio of david grubbs, tony conrad, and dan brown. you'll find it divided into four ingestible fifteen-minute slices of sawing and banging and riffing and cutting and shapeshifting. (hence the turf-over-tops cover art by doug aitken.) act five, scene one is an electrified universe, one perhaps recognizable from grubbs'most recent ep, thirty-minute raven (rectangle).

you could think of it as an hour-long television drama as compared to the sitcom-length raven -- except that act five, scene one is the more broadly comic, less deadpan of the two. it also makes sense to think of these pieces in terms of locked grooves. as repeat-mode rock and roll, e.g. we'd made it all the way to the fifth act when scene one got stuck and kept starting over and over again. your attention is teased, then taxed; the drift begins, and then it's interrupted by that perfectly regular signpost. alarmclockwise, it's snooze-bar rock and roll -- factoring in thrills, chills, spills, quills. act five, scene one contains some of grubbs'most electrified sounds since. . . ? a few reference points: highway driving (solitary); a pinball game; a dream about breathing underwater.

drag city press release...

david grubbs' first pop proper solo lp. there's a proud equilibrium to the thicket. the arrangements are consistent (and consistently colorful) throughout the record. when you first hear a banjo or a trumpet or a tony conrad, you can bet your bottom dollar that you'll hear it again. thus, the record is purged of exoticisms.

the thicket is many things, and elusive is not among them. it's a straight-40-to-the-head album of pop sonic lucidity.

mattin / tim barnes “achbal al atlas” compact disc

untitled (8:58)
untitled (13:49)
untitled (13:14)

impressively harsh free-improv blasts from mattin & tim barnes (with tony conrad guesting in spots) - all over the map from the pounding “power electronics” of the opening piece (reminds me of a lasse marhaug sets ca. 2004) to the twitching full-freq. overload of the second, to the high tones of the last.

those expecting a delicate, pointilist micro-improv set from the pair (with mattin toned down) will be... shocked to say the least - to instead get the opposite (barnes turned up). an excellent disc, the best mattin i’ve heard on record as-of-yet, and nothing like barnes’ recorded output to date...

pica disk (norway) #pica 013 cd

tony conrad / c. spencer yeh / michael f. duch “musculus trapezius” compact disc

musculus trapezius (65:17)

january 2010 release ; believe this is the first issued collaboration between 60s violinist / film-maker / tunning-systems sage tony conrad and contemporary violinist / film-maker / traveler c. spencer yeh, caught on tape (in a trio formation with contrabassist michael f. duch) in oslo back in 2008 ...

after a good 10 minutes of spare piano and rattling architectural appointments, the strings do come in ; at first fighting for a solid footing, then slowly ratcheting into some form of harmonic unison, all whilst the bass iterates in steady, tonal pulses ...

it’s amazing to hear spencer dial it back a bit (he’s by & large keeping to sustained, pitched tones ; very little in the way of his trademark bow-scrape) ; at all points his & tony’s playing is near-indistinguishable ...

now that i think about it ; i haven’t heard a recording of tony’s in some time where he isn’t bathing his difference tones in a sea of electronic effects ; the purely acoustic recording (in what sounds like a glorious old wooden church) does wonders for revealing the detail & clarity of everyone’s playing ...

pica disk press release...

tony conrad / c. spencer yeh / michael f. duch: musculus trapezius

pica013. cd. released january 2010.

from the abstract of the article "emg trapezius muscle activity pattern in string players:: part i—is there variability in the playing technique?" authored by anncristine fjellman-wiklund, helena grip, jan stefan karlsson, and gunnevi sundelin, first published in the international journal of industrial ergonomics (volume 33, issue 4, april 2004) : "work-related neck and shoulder disorders are a great problem for string musicians; a playing technique with more relaxed muscles and a greater variation in the muscle activity pattern, i.e., with shorter sequences at a varied number of amplitude levels... might prevent pain." oops.

an epic performance captured pristine, unfurling its massive limbs patiently and cannily over the course of seventy-plus minutes. conrad mingles amongst his trusted wood-and-steel sidekicks, engaged in both age-old conversations and inspired new inquisitions; yeh bookends his passive/aggressive behaviour on violin with spare piano incantations; duch acts as a ghostly anchor, casting formidable binding and deft velocity. yes, the drones do flow freely, but these reliable horizons fracture into surprising detours, tearing apart not only the instruments and players involved, but the expectations of the music itself.

recorded in sofienberg church of oslo, norway in february 2008, and mastered by jim o'rourke in tokyo, japan. cd in digipak cover.

tony conrad: harpsicord and violin.
c.spencer yeh: piano and violin.

guitar trio pt. 1, chicago (30:23)
guitar trio pt. 2, brooklyn (16:27)

... as psyched i am for this mammoth set of alternating renditions of rhys chatham’s “guitar trio pt. 1” and “guitar trio pt.2” - i can’t help but be a little bummed at the omission of either of the boston takes (which, to my amp-damaged ears, sounded quite fine w/chris brokaw, david daniell, winston bramman, myself, and the devil music guys essentially playing a single-chord to a sold-out allston-rock-city crowd for over an hour) - but that’s neither here nor there ...

what you do get from this excellent triple-disc box are takes from the brooklyn, buffalo, chicago, cleveland, milwaukee, minneapolis, montreal, and toronto stagings of the piece during february 2007, performed with ludicrously high levels of energy by chatham himself, along with such notables as andrew broder, tony conrad, david daniell, kim gordon, alan licht, robert longo, rob “lichens” lowe, doug mccombs, thurston moore, jon mueller, harris newman, jeff parker, lee ranaldo, chris rosenau, adam & ben vida, etc ...

if you don’t know the piece ; it’s essentially an exercise in yielding what chatham himself describes as “choiring” - a heavy, upper-register buildup of harmonic movement that results when so many guitar players, over 20 minutes, slowly work across an open e minor chord from the low e to the high e, at deafening volume, while a single drummer keeps time on a hi-hat (pt. 1) or contributes with a “driving backbeat” followed by a long fill / freak-out (pt. 2) - it’s the ultimate in high-gain rock ‘n’ roll minimalism, really, and because of the open interpretation, the piece can swing pretty heavily in a number of directions given the players - hence this collection offering 5 different realizations of each part by 8 different groups ...

highly recommended as a historical document and as a testament to the piece’s lasting relevance ...

rhys chatham & his guitar trio all-stars
“guitar trio is my life !”

utilizing multiple electric guitars and a single chord, 1977’s “guitar trio” is composer rhys chatham’s signature work, and a euphoric, minimal-punk classic. it’s an inspired amalgamation — the droning, shimmering harmonics of john cale and tony conrad fused with the power and fury of the ramones — that had a meteoric impact. it placed chatham at the forefront of the burgeoning no wave scene; its influence then spread further, as protégés and participants in chatham’s ensembles — including glenn branca and members of sonic youth — folded the sound into their own. “guitar trio” remains a composition with a half-life, an adventure in sound that continues to radiate influence and inspiration.

now, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of “guitar trio” on an epic scale, chatham musters an all-star guitar army for the 3xcd set, “guitar trio is my life!” the sprawling collection features members of sonic youth, swans, tortoise, godspeed you! black emperor, hüsker dü, modern lovers, silver mt. zion, town and country, die kreutzen, 90-day men, collections of colonies of bees, and many more; even tony conrad gets in on the act. together these artists celebrate chatham’s wordless anthem, with its minimalist origins, rock & roll rhythm, ecstatic whorl of harmonics, and ever-evolving, ever-expanding nature.

so, take a listen, and hear what one man can do with hundreds of guitars, 30 years, one chord, and a skyscraper of amps set to liquefy. “guitar trio” endures.

excerpts from the forthcoming rhys chatham 3-cd box set, an angel moves too fast to see

at first glance, new york-born composer rhys chatham might have seemed unlikely to alter the dna of rock; a classically trained musician, chatham was piano tuner to glenn gould and la monte young, student of young and morton subotnick, protegee of tony conrad, and in 1971, while still in his teens, founder of the highly influential experimental music program at the kitchen in lower manhattan. nevertheless, it was rhys chatham who first applied multiple electric guitars to extended-duration, overtone-drenched minimalism. this amalgamation - of the intellectual experimentalism and textural sophistication of the avant-garde with the rhythmic brashness and visceral punch of punk rock - produced a raucous, ecstatic new type of urban music that energized the downtown new york scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s, a music whose influence can be heard in the subsequent work of the many luminaries who participated in chatham's ensembles, including glenn branca and members of sonic youth, mars, band of susans and swans.

a rhys chatham compendium is distilled from the comprehensive 3-disc retrospective, an angel moves too fast to see, which includes all of chatham's major "minimal" pieces, from the thunderous "two gongs" (1971) and the no-wave tumult of "guitar trio" (1977) to the brass-based "massacre on macdougal street" (1982) and the epic, previously unreleased "an angel moves too fast to see" (1989), performed by an orchestra of 100 electric guitars. the accompanying 136-page book features dozens of never-before-published photos plus essays by chatham, tony conrad and lee ranaldo and artwork by famed visual artist robert longo. together they present a portrait of a city and a milieu where, for a moment, the raw, the sophisticated, the meditative and the danceable merged.

selected works 1971-1989, including unreleased recordings of his orchestra for 100 guitars

june 2009 release ; vinyl version, in a deluxe triple-gatefold, which reprints the epic liner notes of the cd edition in full ... needless to say, but it’s pretty great to have such canonic pieces as the russolo’s “chorale”, ruttman’s “wochende”, pousseur’s “scambi”, mumma’s “dresden interleaf”, boehmer’s “aspekt” (listen to the sound-sample for the opening blast ; just bonkers) on “god’s format” ...

normally i’m not one for conceptualized compilations bridging the old with the new (especially ones involving dj spooky), although i have to make something of an exception here as this was curated with a degree of loving care that discounts my own petty concepts of right & wrong...

no excerpts, just a few hours of seminal early electronic transmissions coupled with a few contemporary-era odes to those magmatic magnetic aktions. a really nice overview: futurism to ‘cinema pour l’oreille’ to musique concrète to live electronics ... all over the first 5 tracks alone.

some of this material is available elsewhere but ... so what. it flows nicely, providing a listening experience akin to a finely executed dj mix. one of the better avenues to get your kid brother hooked on experimental electronic music’s many flowering pastures ...

an anthology of noise & electronic music #1
first a-chronology 1921-2001

srv190
3xlp

the first volume of seven published from 2001 to 2011, curated, noted and edited by guy marc hinant.

an unpublished history

this is the great beginning of a vast anthology of "noise and electronic music" that we plan for the following years in 7 double volumes. this volume begins in the 1920s, with the russolo brothers, and looks at each decade in turn - varèse, cage, schaeffer, xenakis, the great pioneers - the first traces of a music that was necessarily revolutionary: electronic music, created from nothing (and hence to be entirely invented). some pieces on these cds are certainly classics, but there are others, which, though old, were distributed informally or never even released. our more contemporary pieces are, wherever possible, previously unreleased. in fact, more than the half of what we listen here is unreleased and unpublished.

...

the gathering of eclectic noise makers

whereas composers like stockhausen, berio or pousseur had come from serialism and began making electronic music as a continuation of their work with traditional instruments, others such as boehmer or oliveros composed right away on electronic bases; there were those who invented new methods, like schaeffer and concrete music, others were outsiders, revolutionaries or visionaries like xenakis or cage, without forgetting the branch of sound derived from dada, the complex forms of free jazz, john coltrane, the acoustic and electronic improvisation scene, rock of the alternative, psychedelic and industrial varieties, the german wave of the 1970s, the last generation of electronic musicians from the beginning or middle of the 1990s, dj, reinventors of drones, painters or sculptors using sound, and process or software creators. the noise goes on ...

table of the elements press release...

happy 21st century. here, on these eight unique tracks, is a field guide to the essential table of the elements. this sampler is more than a summary of label highlights, and certainly nothing so casual as an assortment of odds’n’sods. the performances make a statement as bold as their visceral impact and as rich as the conceptual process that underpins their creation. it’s no coincidence that jonathan kane jump-starts the show with “curl,” a low-down blues rumble powered by the drummer’s signature mule kick. the new york based musician has been the rhythmic motor behind so me of the singularly monolithic bands of the last 30 years. here, he summons the ghosts of slim harpo and junior kimbrough to commune with the shimmering harmonic textures his band creates. this blessed-out boogaloo may be the perfect response to the rallying cry: f*ck dance, let’s art! in the right pair of hands, gripping the right set of drumsticks, there’s scarcely any difference. dig in as north mississippi meets downtown new york. it’s the new, new, new hip-shake thing. and it’s superbad.

like kane, whose name is perfectly suited for a skin-slapping urban blues magus, arnold dreyblatt is a minimalist who never forgot that music is still the human mating call. anyone who has experienced the composer’s recordings with his marvelously-dubbed orchestra of excited strings knows how madly dreyblatt’s pieces swing. they’ve flaunt time as precise as a swiss watch. indeed, music like this can put you in the mind of the whirring cogs and pulleys of some small mechanized device. everything’s moving, twitching about, a bunch of individual sounds racheting up and down in a modulated relationship to all the other individual sounds. this animated playfulness gives “star trap” a real charm. springy rhythms dance with each other, as clipped percussion and purposefully bowed strings generate delightful harmonic chatter.

no less pixilated is the collaboration between improvising electric harpist zeena parkins and fellow traveler david kean – an engineer and instrument collector who oversees a most curious and impressive array of obscure keyboards at his audities foundation in calgary. here, the duo manifests some ticklish repartee between plucks and loops, as micro-sounds caper and vault through the spontaneous choreography of pure textural play.

georgia natives san agustin (david daniell, guitar; andrew burnes, guitar; bryan fielden, drums) have their own peculiar relationship with the sonic phenomena they create, awash in eddying pools of feedback and resonance evoked as if a natural event and as evaporative as a cirrus cloud floating high against crispy blue.

composer tony conrad and the german rock band faust partake of a different sort of conversation on a segment of their final live performance together: the encore from a feb. 18, 1995, concert at queen elizabeth hall in london. pitting conrad’s ferociously amplified violin against the primitive percussive onslaught of faust, and discordant shouts from the audience, the piece clangs and drones its way to an ecstatic pinnacle. conrad’s “indicting lully” hails from 1998, and an installation at the museum of contemporary art in los angeles. the piece finds conrad and alex gelencser on violin and cello, playing to the “orchestral” drone of three hurdy gurdy-like violins, turned upside-down, with the strings jutting against a spinning wheel, which agitated each string equally. the musicians performed while garbed in 18th century period costumes.

the concept of massed strings gets supersized in this excerpt from rhys chatham’s legendary “100 guitars.” this prelude to one of the most extraordinary works in the minimalist canon hints at the majestic potential inherent in chatham’s amplified imagination. eric burdon once fantastized about “10,000 guitars, grooving real loud,” but this composer makes a dream come true. and yet, if that’s not enough, check out the sampler’s closer. “9 beet stretch” is an instant milestone in modern music. think 100 guitars can’t be beat? try 24 hours of beethoven. this snippet comes from leif inge’s digitally realized adaptation of beethoven’s 9th symphony. extended to 24 hours by a literal “stretch,” which involved slowing down a recording of the masterpiece — with no distortion in pitch — so that it becomes a wholly new creature, “beet” opens up into an impossibly wondrous world of sonic phenomena. saturated in the rushing whirl of nameless angelic choirs, the listener is propelled forward into the eternal – no less a transcendent movement through the end of time than a passage through kubrick’s kaleidoscopic stargate. it’s a fitting way to conclude this compilation, stealing fire from the western cultural pantheon to fuel a voyage into uncharted territories, but it’s just such an enterprise that makes table of the elements such essential listening. happy 21st century, indeed.

“the sound projector presents... vinyl viands 2006” magazine

100 lp record reviews !!!

with this november 2006 “special” issue it’s pretty much official; the sound projector is the best experimental music magazine running, at least from my jilted standpoint...

in this issue mr. pinsent selects a stack of vinyl from his shelf, then sits down and concocts witty expositions on their contents, methods of acquisition, etc... the whole thing has this ritualistic flair but never dips into sheer repetition; there’s always something interesting to say, some revelation to be found.

records reviewed in this issue range from recent noise vinyl way on back to 60s esp-disk originals; not your “keeping up with the new release schedules” coverage here, no sir... ed is as likely to review a rare 1970 french prog lp as he is the new fusetron title.

it’s a joy to read and genuinely funny to boot. if you’ve ever pored the shelves of your local mom & pop record shop for dusty experimental gelt, you’ll be familiar with the thrill of the hunt celebrated within these pages. very highly recommended!
