MFOM Program 742: Density, Time, and Sound

Here’s a film music-angled guest mixology for the great late Chambre Noire series. A sprawling and tentacled collaged focus on music and sound design for cinematic experiences. My concentration is on art films, 1970-80s horror (American, Euro as well as Asiatique), cult flicks, animation and documentaries. 

Although tracklist features some big-name film composers who ended up co-opted into Hollywood death-machine (Morricone, Howard Shore, Pino Donaggio, Badalamenti) I tried to focus on their odder early efforts instead.

Includes momentous creations by Popol Vuh, Third Ear Band, Sonic Youth, Toru Takemitsu, David Lynch, John Lurie, Haruomi Hosono, Fabio Frizzi, RZA, Riz Ortolani, Komeda, Coil, Messiaen, Simon Fisher Turner, Stereolab, Eduard Artemiev, Michael Nyman, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno, Wendy Carlos, Tangerine Dream, our lady Meredith Monk and a bunch of other greats, both, directors and musicians. Full tracklist with movie titles and directors (see link below). Eye-pleasing digital collage by Bunzinelli

Chambre Noire Mix No. 58 • Film Music Special: Demimonde Art House, Horror And Midnight Flicks

2CD available directly from Imprec.com

American percussionist and composer Michael Ranta is a legendary figure who has worked with some of the most significant names of 20th century music but despite this and impressive body of work of his own, he has remained an obscure figure. Important Records and is pleased to present “Transits, Volume 1” the first in a series of releases by composer/percussionist Sarah Hennies documenting never before heard chamber works mostly composed in the 1970s while Ranta was living in Taiwan. 

Mastered by Tom Eaton at Sounds & Substance.

Based overseas since the late 60s, Ranta is known primarily as a percussionist who worked closely with Harry Partch, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Helmut Lachenmann, Toru Takemitsu and Jean-Claude Éloy but is also an accomplished artist himself with a vast body of work spanning improvisation, electronic music, and composition. The works in the “Transits” series comprise a dozen works of scored compositions for solo and chamber ensembles almost all of which are completely unknown with no known performances or recordings since their original premieres. Volume 1 includes “Mharuva,” a 30-minute marathon tour-de-force for solo marimba, “Seven Pieces for Three Percussionists,” and the 40-minute “Continuum II,” a stunning display of virtuosity for two bass clarinets, percussion, and electronics.


“Transits, Volume 1” features performances by Sarah Hennies, NYC clarinetists Madison Greenstone and Katie Porter, and the Bard College Conservatory Percussion Ensemble.
