SOUND SCULPURES-VARIOUS ARTISTS, ARC RECORDS, LP, 197?, CANADA

soundsculpt






















































ARC Canada put together a lovely cross section of sound sculpture spanning 3 decades of works. The collection was housed for 60 days at the Vancouver Art Gallery. During the collections stay multiple recordings were made within the gallery's conducive environment. The collection was curated by experimental sound and tape artist David Rosenboom (who had a short stint at Mills College here in Oakland) The recordings feature sounds not found on the Sonambient series of Harry Bertoia, making this collection heavily sought after by Bertoia collectors. Additional recordings of works by Francois & Bernard Baschet, Stephan Von Huene, Reinhold Pieper Marxhausen and David Jacobs make for a wonderful and eclectic collection of outerworldly soundscapes. A must hear for any sound art enthusiast!

JON GIBSON-VISITATIONS, CPS, 1973, L.P., U.S.A

VISITATIONS


NYC, 1973. Chatham Square Productions, INC
First solo LP by this Phillip Glass part time collaborator and label mate. Beautifully done left field modern minimal classical work. A wonderful excursion in "non-monumental music". Instrumentation includes: wooden flutes, bells, cymbals, synth, brook, claves and various effects. A great example of field recordings interweaving with composed musical instruments to create sonic blanketing . Put this on in place of your morning and evening ragas for a similar effect on heads.

BARTON AND PRISCILLA MCLEAN-ELECTRO SURREALISTIC LANDSCAPES (THE MCLEAN MIX), OPUS ONE, LP, 1981, U.S.A

amazing husband and wife duo, pure analog bliss! a dynamic duo of the ARP 2600 and other modular synths heres an album thats a little more rare and under the radar compared to their other catalog releases.

2.3 CHILDREN- THREE S/T 7", 1982, U.S.A

2.3












































2.3 children hail from san francisco these three 7 inches were on penguin records all dated 1982, 2.3 make some very strange, creepy and hilarious music "other peoples l.p.'s" for example is arguably an overlooked funnier than all hellbent classic for any record nut, other favorites include "drunk in the afternoon" and "harry bop slow" although relevance of these folks is some what an obscure topic i imagine 2.3 sharing couch with the residents, chrome and other s.f. comrades serving up the same brand of neo political or not.. wacked out lunacy!! i believe these three 7 inchers to be there complete discography however any help or info on the group would be very welcomed.... if you are in the mood for a laugh or just want to hear some very interesting and bizarre music give em a try.

ps

minimal oven!! enjoy it.

DOUGLAS BENNETT-YOU WERE ON MY MIND, ONE SIDED 12", LP, 1982, U.S.A

I have found one other album by douglas bennett under alias EXIT 16 also interesting but this takes the prize, nothing anywhere on this little GEM........

This could be one of the MORE OUT THERE obscure 12 incher's we have come across
a one sided jammer filled with sparse electronics and a very minimal
early house style break circa 82.. not cybotron but very very weirdly cool ALOT cheesy and super unique, back to playing video games under the influence again here.....enjoy
