Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from December 29, 2022 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

on Irrlicht: "Irrlicht still has more connections to Musique concrète than with today's electronics. I still never owned a synthesiser at the time." Schulze mainly used a broken and modified electric organ, a recording of a classical orchestra rehearsal played backward, and a damaged amplifier to filter and alter sounds that he mixed on tape into a three-movement symphony.

Nonesuch was a treasure. Inexpensive, a vast range of repertoire, and generally good performances and recordings. In many cases the performances were world class (Horenstein's Mahler 1) and the sonics unbeatable (virtually anything engineered by Joanna Nickrenz and Marc Aubort).
