“oto no hajimari wo motomete 6 • nishihata shiotani takayanagi work” compact disc

minao shibata - musique concréte for stereophonic broadcast (19:36) 1955
toru takemitsu - sky, horse and death (3:23) 1958
toshihiro mayuzumi - campanology for electronic music (10:22) 1959
staffs of nhk electronic music studio - electronic music for stereo broadcast (4:50) 1960
yoriaki matsudaira - assemblages for tape (15:00) 1968
ryohei hirose - flora 1971 (19:40) 1971

march 2008 release ; the sixth & most recent entry into the “other” series of compilations collecting early japanese electronic music ... starting out w/ shibata’s 1955 “musique concréte for stereophonic broadcast” (a kind of insane extended take utilizing water & machine noises ... even crowd-reaction documentation & varèse-lineage percussion-room sonics), takemistu’s 1958 “sky, horse and death” (crystal-clear tape-speed manipulation with breaking glass, spare piano figures, and a disembodied ghost-choir), mayuzumi’s 1959 “campanology” (sliding gong-tones & chimes), a 1960 group-composition by employees of the nhk studio (synthesis-heavy piece using varying echo/space-chambers & band-pass filtering), matsudaira’s 1969 “assemblages” (for me the pick of the comp - endless variations on extremely noisy / ring-modulated source material ranging from group-sound to radio telemetry mixed with some crazed group-mumbling & general-purpose vocal-freakouts ... ), and hirose’s 1971 “flora” (subdued “frozen” sounds & an electronic free-improv coda ...)

probably the nicest-looking volume in the series, with a 12-page booklet with detailed notes & an nhk chronology (all in japanese, unfort.) i know the price on this one (and all the other volumes by proxy) is kinda hard to swallow ... but considering the price of japanese imports these days ($#@!& economy) things could be much, much worse ... highly (sorry !!!) recommended !!!

“oto no hajimari wo motomete 4 • shigeru sato work” compact disc

keitarou miho “divertimento” (8:58) 1963
toshi ichiyanagi “tokyo 1969” (15:29) 1969
akira miyoshi “transit” (5:36) 1969
minao shibata “jungetsutouka” (13:02) 1971
michael ranta “kagakuhenka” (17:44) 1971
akemichi takeda “panoramicsonor” (14:32) 1973

november 2006 release; the fourth volume in this impeccable series covering virtually all “output” of the japanese nhk-studio from the mid 1950s through the early 1970s... output in quotes due to the fact that very little of music has even been heard in the western hemisphere either “back in the day” or in the intervening years...

the highlight of this volume is unquestionably toshi ichiyanagi’s “tokyo 1969” - just a ridiculous meld of pre-psf/high-rise “group-sounds”/psych-overload vs. ichiyanagi’s overmodulated synths and noise - way too good to be true (just listen to the sound sample !!!)

extremely sorry about the prices here; i’ve done everything in my power to be able to offer these at “less-than-japanese” prices, but, when you get down to it, they are in fact japanese cds which cost on average double their western counterparts...
