Audio: Here we go, another experiment in sound. I set a MySpace music account up a while ago. Been meaning to use it ever since. So, further to a conversation from this afternoon, I have uploaded 4 tracks from the minimalist/experimental label Trente Oiseaux for a limited period. This is sound art, artists playing with silence, texture and the like.
Francisco Lopez - Warsawa Restaurant - an example of the minimalist composers entirely minimal work, personally I find this quite incredibly disturbing.
Reynols - Blank Tapes - The Argentinian band's notorious album featuring 6 tracks of the sound recorded from blank tapes.
Bernhard Gunter - Brown, Blue, Brown on Blue (For Mark Rothko) - An extract from Gunter's 38 minute tribute to Mark Rothko; Gunter being responsible for the Trente Oiseaux record label that released these four CDs.
Daniel Menche - Legions In The Wall (Ultra Pysical Performance 94-95) - Of these piece Menche is my favourite artist, though he is certainly the most noise orientated/audible. Frustratingly Menche is doing a rare UK performance in Dundee on the 18th of February as part of the Kill Your Timid Notion festival - which is the same night as Glasgow's FrightNight event.
WARNING: - due to the extremes of some of this material I would recommend that you watch your volume levels.
