Turntable At Dawn ltd edition CD launch + CD sale bonanza!
Shame File Music presents Clinton Green's (AKA Undecisive God) new limited edition CD 'Turntable At Dawn'. This unedited recording was made in Green's backyard in January 2012. His instrument was an 'acoustic turntable', where objects and percussive instruments are placed on the turntable platter to create chaotic rhythms, in this case attempting to integrate with the ambient sound in the backyard (both natural and industrial).
Recent additions to Shame File Music mailorder:
Ross Manning "Harmonious Angles" LP
Manning's first solo LP is a joyous yet understatedly-intricate sonic outing
created in real time via live playback of various recorders (HD, tape and MD)
overlaid with live sound events, including field recordings and an assortment
of Manning's own (often customised/handmade) instruments. Evocative of a
less-manic Volvox in its strangeness, the soundworlds created here are
intriguing and immensely satisfying.
BACK IN STOCK - Various Artists
"Source Records 1-6: Music of the Avant Garde 1968-1971" 3CD Originally
released on a series of 10" LPs from 1968 to 1971 by the new music journal
Source, this series documents some of the most significant experimental
music from largely US composers (plus New Zealand's Annea Lockwood) of the
time. This series has been remastered and issued as a 3 CD set with booklet; a
veritable time capsule from a time and place that was hotbed in the developing
story of experimental music. Other composers include Robert Ashley, Alvin
Lucier, Larry Austin and more.
