“The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be.”  ― Douglas Adams

Eclectic current – Skewed perspectives

Guess I shouldn't have deleted this one from my account… here it is again… I dedicate it to all people who, like me, love Ligeti, Stockhausen, Schönberg, Webern, Boulez, Bartók, Berg and so on, love equally Miles and Trane and Sanders and Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock and Joel Ross and love equally Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Prince, Co Shu Nie, Bjork, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Sting …and love Bach and Mozart and Josquin and Chopin… and besides love the music of the Gbaya, and Gamelan, and Japanese traditional music… why should we feel confined to ANY genre?

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley

All good music resembles something. Good music stirs by its mysterious resemblance to the objects and feelings which motivated it. ~ Jean Cocteau

All music is beautiful. ~ Billy Strayhorn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've become addicted to drone. Again. I was the kid with his head on the piano, listening to the overtones die away, or pressing his ear to the steel hull of the ferry, enthralled by the sounds it created. I was the kid who formed wordless songs to accompany the sound of train wheels on a long journey, or hummed along with the fan on a hot day.

In the 60s I used to play my 45s on 16, or backwards, or by hand using razor blades as stylii.

I made cut-up tapes on a cheap cassette recorder in the 70s and experimented with reel-to-reel in the 80s. 

Thank you Subotnick, Lygeti, Coltrane, Jimi, Mimaroglu, Eno, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Kraftwerk, Throbbing Gristle...

I am not a musician. I am a scavenger of sounds. I use the most basic software to process those sounds, stretching and filtering until something emerges that makes a joyful noise. Or not...
