Teasing the Korean Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I have been listening to Gil Melle's score for "The Andromeda Stain" non-stop. While this does not strictly fit the sub-genre I was addressing with this thread, it fits in nicely. A range of stuff from proto-ambient to things with melodic phrases and definite rhythmic pulses. Uses electronic instruments along with manipulated sounds of drums, bass, alto flute, piano, maybe more. I think this limited edition CD has already sold out.

JSngry Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I don't listen to "schools" or "conceptions" or "eras" or "cultural statements" - not sure what those things would even sound like - I listen to music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasing the Korean Posted August 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Now listening to Morton Subotnick's "The Wild Bull" on Nonesuch. This is pretty wild - lots of interesting shifts from minimal quiet passages to very loud and crowded mayhem. Parts of it remind me of Jerry Goldsmith's soundtrack to "Logan's Run," the expanded version of which contains a greater sampling of electronic music from the Dome.

Teasing the Korean Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Just scored a few gems on LP, $2.99 a throw, all in pristine condition (as you'd expect), and all on the Nonesuch label: The aforementioned "Earth's Magnetic Field" by Chares Dodge "Music for Instruments & Electronic Sound" by Donald Erb "Electro-Acoustic Music" by Iannis Xenakis Listened to Dodge and half of Erb. Great stuff! Dodge got off to a slow start with a lengthy monophonic melodic passage, but then it kicked in. And anyone whose last name is Erb would have to compose electronic music!

Teasing the Korean Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Now listening to Iannis Xenakis. Side 1, "Bohor 1," sounds like the soundtrack to an early David Lynch film!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Xenakis is excellent. Across the board, excellent. This was a recent pick up, from da bastids: Very nice. Also, anything by Laurie Spiegel is worth picking up. Edited March 28, 2013 by Stefan Wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Clugston Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Now listening to Iannis Xenakis. Side 1, "Bohor 1," sounds like the soundtrack to an early David Lynch film!!! That's one of my favourites of this genre. Also a big fan of Morton Subotnick's Silver Apples of the Moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasing the Korean Posted March 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I'd never even heard of Xenakis. Yes, "Silver Apples" is a classic. I have 3 Subotnick LPs, 4 if you count the Ormandy 2001 knockoff with Subotnick's between-track electronic interludes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
