| july 2008 ; once again, the yearly re-arrival of the six neemc discs ... i’m not sure what’s going on out there in the world - i’ve had these discs in stock since their release back in 2001 (vols. 1-3) & 2003 (4-6) - they are in no way out of print, nor are they worth more than $7 !!! please don’t pay ebay prices for them ...
first volume in a hopefully never-ending series set on liberating unheard early electronic music gems from obscurity ... these all come as full-color printed mini-cdrs housed in mini jewel cases with a full-color insert (front) with stills from the films in question and recording details (back), all housed in a zip-seal banded baggie. these recordings have been professionally cleaned up to remove unwanted artifacts ; sound qualities range based on the source (either 8mm/16mm prints from the sbs archives in melbourne, or vhs copies of said prints) ...
this volume features pierre boulez's only concréte piece, an rather amazing gershon kingsley computer-funk bomb, the only recorded realization of percy grainger's 'free music', an interlude to a film about glass blowing by tom dissevelt, and and joan labarbara's score to one of doris chase's experimental dance videos ... |
