Early Electronica

oneforghost [Edit] [Delete] 77 replies 14:25 April 6th, 2010

Since there's a new series of Doctor Who and that, I thought it'd be nice to have a thread on early electronica stuff.

New stuff:
Tristam Cary - It's Time for Tristam Cary [Trunk]
http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=281201
Underappreciated Radiophonic Orchestra guy.

Sam Spence - Sam Spence Sounds [Finders Keepers]
http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=290673
Bit later kraut-associated stuff.

Michael Yonkers - Lovely Gold [Drag City]
http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=291331
Really ace lost album from someone who I don't know a lot about.

I think there's also a new Massiera comp on Finders Keepers and a Japanese soundtrack thing on Ethbo.
Anyone bought any of these yet? Thoughts? I really like the Michael Yonkers and Tristam Cary albums. Haven't got round to the rest yet though.

Some of my favourite older stuff:
Ruth White - The Flowers of Evil (1969)
Incredible dark, synth-led readings of the Baudelaire poems.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ba4-nurH9Y

Beaver & Krause - The Nonesuch Guide to Electronic Music (1968)
So far ahead of it's time.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ba4-nurH9Y
(also check out Keaver & Brause for some great beats stuff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdN_EbJo03g)

Lucifer (Mort Garson) - Black Mass (1971)
Could choose any of his album because they're all amazing, but this one is particuarly spooky and great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7DVtCl9HfQ

If you don't mind downloading, this is really incredible; Delia Derbyshire providing the soundtrack to a very haunting documentary on dreams: http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.com/2007/07/delia-derbyshire-barry-bermange-within.html

And obv. Raymond Scott is the don:
Soothing Sounds for Baby
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7DVtCl9HfQ
Actually my favourite Raymond Scott stuff; music to put a baby to sleep to!
Manhattan Research Inc.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWbzAa_c1VY
(the one Dilla sampled - the interesting thing being how most the percussive elements are there in the original)

Anyone else? Favourite albums from the past, or favourite albums, which homage these kind of sounds (Broadcast/Ghost Box etc.)?

I don't know much at all about the 70s electronica

Apart from hearing Radiophonic Workshop stuff and Kraftwork.

I've got a bit of the 80s b-boy stuff though.

  Start with some of the reissues and compilations on Trunk and Lo.

    - The Barry 7's Connectors comps are a good place to start
      
      Roger Roger is a bit of a GG Towers favourite, as is Nino Nardini and Barry from Add N To (X) put these together, lots of rare tunes. The Milky Disco compilations contain stuff influenced by library music and THIS - http://lorecordings.greedbag.com/buy/moog-acid-5/ - is tremendous. Jean Jacques Perrey = legend.
      
      To go all modern, Charlie Alex March's underrated album is out on Lo's "pop" imprint LOAF, and is well worth buying. Yes, we love all this stuff. Never admit influences, though, it leads to people hearing things that aren't there or setting themselves up for disappointment.

      - aw, yes. I think I read that before, I shouldn't have bought it up really.
        
        Now oddly, I've heard of LOAF. I think they put out that Extra Life record Saint_Cronin has been banging on about. I'm listening to that album on spotify now, and it does sound rather good.
        
        I've heard some of that Jean Jacques Perrey stuff before, on a Susumu Yokota comp, that come to think of it might have been on Lo. I best get that though. A new cd for £5 - can't complain, and I'll check out the other stuff, cheers.

        I guess you mean 'Etude aux chemins de fer', it's musique concrete isn't it?
        
        which, I guess isn't 'classical' as such, but certainly is more serious-minded and aimed at being progressive (or at least percieved like that) than stuff like Mort Garson and Raymond Scott, who in the latter's case, obviously wrote functional music to put babies to sleep to!
        it was a bit of a throw-away comparison though, and as I say, I'm not really an expert, so I could be wrong about a few of those.

    - I don't really know.
      
      I think it's either that or a slightly 50s/60s recording which tried to imitate the original instruments etc. Russolo used - it's definitely not made used synths and serato or anything like that.

        quite possibly. as I say I don't really know.
        
        I'd imagine it's made using imitations of his 'noise-machines', but there's not a lot of information.

    and you can get both their good albums for £5 most places.

      I lump The USA in with Os Mutantes and I guess teh Beatles with the 'using the studio as an instrument a bit more than the average 60s people' thing. I guess that's what they're doing idk really. I suppose it is electronica sort of.
      
      There is a rereleased Silver Apples cd called 'The Garden' which is supposed to be 'the lost 3rd album' which is well worth a listen too if you haven't heard it. Lots of cool instrumentals.

        Probably the same could be said for the Joe Meek track posted above.
        
        I'll check out 'The Garden'.
        Amused to see Simeon did a cheeky cover of We Carry On, that Portishead track that definitely wears it's Silver Apples' fandom on it's sleeve.

        quite different to the first two records, dare I say a tad more whimsical at points. All the instrumentals, weren't recorded at the time though, I'm fairly certain they were recorded in the 90's during the first Silver Apples reunion.

Lovely thread

Can't believe I didn't see it yesterday...
If you want to get into any archeology of electronic music, Sub Rosa has the necessary comps (It's one of those websites that doesn't give proper links, but their called Anthology of Noise & Electronic Music Vol. 1-5) Which reminds me that I still need to get Vol.5
As so much music has already been put forward allow me to digress into some other type of musings (or stop reading now).
Experimentation with electronic music resulted from a changing sound environment in the world. With the advent of industrialisation the world became not only louder but the sounds of the world also changed. People like Luigi Russolo tried to capture this in their music but found that existing instruments were not able to give them the sound they were looking for. Therefore new instruments had to be invented and created. The early electronic instruments were all intended to recreate existing sounds: Russolo's Intonarumori were intended to recreate the sounds of the street, Leon Theremin created the Theremin because he thought that radio bandwaves could sound like a violin. Where this experimentation gets interesting, for me, is when electronics started to get used to create something different. The epitomy of this is noise. On the one hand, the hand that is steeped in everyday life, noise was mostly heard as something vile and out of place, resulting in endless noise abatament campaigns. On the other hand, musicians were embracing noise(s) in their music and finally, as music. Electronics gave musicians a wider range of sounds to play with and, arguably more importantly, shifted the emphasis in music from harmony and meter to rhythm and timbre. This shift comes to the fore when in the 1970s electronics enter the pop realm.

self-indulgent thread-bump

why did i not know about this from 2005-7?
http://www.discogs.com/label/Creel%20Pone

still, a pretty amazing discovery resource for this stuff, if you want to give some titles a google. the root strata blog has put a couple of them up, and the Pythagoron, Ruth White (as mentioned), and Pietro Grossi records are pretty ace.

good reason to bump

http://matrixsynth.blogspot.com/2011/02/radiophonic-weekend-bristol.html!
feat. appearances from Dick Mills and David Cain!
from the latter this is such a good record: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGTCCTPSI30
I've got Electronic Sounds and Music by F.C. Judd and that's real beautiful so i'm intrigued by that section too.

these days i really like lots of the scandinavian stuff that was getting made at the same time tho:
like Ralph Lundsten, Pekka Airaksinen and Erkki Kurenniemi...
i wish my school-days were like thsi:

Oh Oneforghost!

I might see if I have anything to add here later. Another shout-out to the Recollection GRM records for now though!

Laurie Spiegel - The Expanding Universe

This is early computer music, reissued towards the end of the year. Hadn't heard of her before the Wire started enthusing about this record.

This compilation by David Toop is great...

"Booming On Pluto: Electro for Droids" - it tries to look at the history of electronic music through a mix:
