april 2008 release ; possibly the most ridiculous / covetable experimental-music edition that’s crossed my foldable iceberg table since it was relocated earlier this year - four lps in their own individual sleeves, tucked into a cloth-bound / embossed box along with a signed, 36-page 12” x 12” book by / about the belgian outsider artist / musician baudouin oosterlynck ...

seriously ... this thing makes a vinyl-on-demand set look like a soul-jazz comp ; but i digress ... let’s talk about the music on offer ; all recorded in oosterlynck’s private studio (images below) between 1975 and 1978, with prepared piano being the main sound-source (also voice - often slown-down using tape-manipulation ala henri chopin - as well as saw, mallet, guitar, cane, tuner’s key, etc ...) - the pieces have an almost zen-like palette - simple gestures are repeated in regular intervals, creating an ominous sound-field in whichever space you choose to listen ...

before i go and, of course, highly recommend this to just about anyone who still values both the unearthing of the complete, prime-era works of an otherwise hitherto unheralded outsider musician and the impeccably presented record-object, i would like to point out to mmsinternational customers that, much like the dijkstra set, a very large part of the costs here involve the transport of these four-pound boxes from belgium to the united states ... i urge anyone closer to belgium than boston to get a copy from the a-musik shop or another european dealer, instead of asking me to again post this back across the atlantic ...

anyone else, my doors are, as always, wide-open to your personal musical discovery ...

baudouin oosterlynck : 1975 - 1978

metaphon 001

recordings of prepared piano, voice and objects of which most material previously unreleased. hardboard linen lp box contains 4 lp's with separate covers and a 34 page booklet with notes and photos from b.o. signed and numbered edition of 300 copies.

there are times when you collect material, ideas, and emotions without being able to combine them. you feel as if you are laying the foundations of a work without knowing its form and you wait, feeling curious. you let the sounds rest until the evening when birth resembles death. the fruit is ripe for an instant only, the time it takes to fall. like the virgin's veil.

bold wine, austere lineage.

since 1978, baudouin oosterlynck has been introducing his music in the floor, the walls, the windows, etc ... thereby creating his first musical installations and sound installations.

the music no longer goes towards the listener's ears but it is the listener's ears that go towards the music. all of this happens in silence.

he did musical performances in function of acoustic phenomena particular to specific architectures. he completed 15,000 km on foot and by bicycle in europe, looking for variations of silence. for the past fifteen years he has been producing listening prostheses and special instruments played by the listener in silence!

there are more than 180 opuses to date.
