Playlist mit „Teekontor“

von: Michael Engelbrecht Filed under: Blog | TB | 5 Comments

Die West Coast, natürlich, und San Francisco als Zentrum der mit der Hippie-Ära entstandenen Instrumentalmusik. Romantischer Kitsch war genauso möglich wie pure Faszination. Ja, „New Age“ und die West  Coast. Ein idealer Nährboden: die lange Geschichte von LSD vor Timothy Leary, das extreme Klima, die Bewusstseinsveränderung als Programm – von den damals neuen Forschungsrichtungen der Psychologie, luzides Träumen, die Urschreitherapie Janovs, bis zu den psychedelischen Bands der Rockmusik. Schon vor dem Summer of Love 1967 lehrten Terry Riley und Pauline Oliveiros dort, der Buchla-Synthesizer wurde entwickelt, alternative Lebensstile  erprobt. Eine junge Frau namens Pauline Anna Strom, blind von Geburt an, sog diese Einflüsse auf, hörte Musik von Tangerine Dream aus dem fernen Deutschland, was Cluster und Eno zusammen in Köln anstellten, aber auch Kitaro, und jenen aus Griechenland stammenden Komponisten, der sich unten in der Bay Area ein musikalisches Hausboot eingerichtet hatte – Pauline Anna Strom arbeitete vorzugsweise von sechs Uhr abends bis sechs Uhr morgens.

  2. Michael Engelbrecht:

    Joey, let us post the first hour and the last one, for a while, when we’ll get our hands on it …

    Geir Sundstol: Never heard of this guy, but he’s potentially on my 2018 top list.

  4. Michael Engelbrecht:

    BRODLOS is the name of his album.

    „Tumbleweed blows across the widescreen desert vistas of a curiously Nordic western landscape; the melancholy-sounding scrape of a metal slide on bare steel wire is set to the same, slow, clip-clopping equestrian rhythms we hear in horse-drawn cultures from Texas to Outer Mongolia; what seem at first to be familiar musical textures drawn from ambient music, country rock or jazz are made strange through their juxtaposition with oddly clashing elements taken from totally different registers: Indian tabla drums with Mini-Moog, say, or the gated thwack and hiss of Eighties power-ballad drums next to an avant-garde electronic shimmer or Sneaky Pete-style pedal steel. It’s a fascinating place where ‘Paris, Texas’ might meet ‘Tubular Bells’, Ennio Morricone can rub shoulders with Brian Eno, and David Bowie really does run into John Coltrane. This is ‘Brødløs’, the third solo album by the Norwegian composer, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Geir Sundstøl.“

    So wird DISCREET MUSIC natürlich vröffentlicht:

    The second half of the album, titled ‘Three Variations on the Canon in D Major by Johann Pachelbel’ features the Cockpit Ensemble, playing brief excerpts from the score, which were repeated several times, with the tempo and other elements gradually altered – the end result of which “forced the listener to switch fundamental modes of hearing”, Pitchfork proclaimed.

    Double vinyl side-splits:

    Side A
    ‘Discreet Music Part One’ (15:34)
    Side B
    ‘Discreet Music Part Two’ (15:41)
    Side C
    ‘Fullness of Wind’ (9:57)
    Side D
    ‘French Catalogues’ (5:18)
    ‘Brutal Ardour’ (8:17)
