EARTH TO THE UNKNOWN POWER

DAVID HYKES & THE HARMONIC CHOIR

BMG Classics/Catalyst 09026-68347-2

(1996)

Recorded live in concert at The Kitchen, New York City --and simultaneously at Thoronet Abbey, France-- November 10 and 11th, 1995. World premier performances of EARTH TO THE UNKNOWN POWER, BROTHERHOOD RETURNING, AND FLIGHT OF PRAYER. American premier of LE SOUFFLE DU SEIGNEUR, Sufi poems about the Christ.

This recording presents the world premiere of the "Virtual Abbey," developed by John Hobbs and David Hykes. The live sound of the concert was digitally encoded and sent into Le Thoronet Abbey over ISDN telephone lines, played back live through a sound system in the extraordinary Abbey acoustics, then re-encoded and sent back to The Kitchen, placing us "here" within the "Virtual Abbey."

HARLEY GABER, bitches

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 19:39 (twenty years ago)

ah we can do it here, you're probably right. I have tons, but here are my favorite New Albion droners:

the Dempster. there's an earlier album too which is great, but it's just him alone, sparser, but pure

'Shing Kee' from Carl Stone's Mom's is the definitive minimalism / sampling crossover, I'll post it to ysi tonight

Later Ingram Marshall is a bit too smooth & polite for me, but 'Fog Tropes / Gradual Requiem' hits me just right

Favorite Stephen Scott bowed piano record is the second one -- third one's good too, more concise & tuneful, closer to pop

Two of my favorite Feldman records, not ambient, the Joan LaBarbara one is microtonal buzzing & drilling harmonies, really plays with your head -- not for everyone but definitely for me. Also, my favorite version of Rothko Chapel.

extra Alan Lamb track on this -- which is essential if you worship Primal Image -- the peaks are noisy but the plains are beyond belief

and I know I never shut up about Garlo's Vent De Guitares but that's only because I think some of you don't have it yet. Keith's got a sample up. It's not on New Albion, I just never stop mentioning it.

― milton parker (Jon L), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 20:01 (twenty years ago)

basically the ambient I like is blissy/contemplative though not dark-textured like NWW or Boyd Rice

great cover. is that blissy/contemplative? only robert henke ambient stuff i've heard is piercing music. one of those albums where you're not sure if it's started yet and if you're actually just listening to rain water dripping from the gutter outside your window

― get a goal (rionat), Monday, 1 March 2010 23:22 (sixteen years ago)

interesting:

From the CD liner notes: One of my favourite instruments, the Yamaha SY77 can produce timbres that slowly change and mutate via FM synthesis, and recordings of these sounds formed the basis for what was to evolve into Signal to Noise. The recordings mainly consisted of harmonic droning, so I found them to be a bit boring after extensive listening. I began filtering, pitch-shifting and processing the material using granular resynthesis, aiming to achive erosion and diffusion of the sound while preserve some of the original movements. The signal became the noise.

The sonic sculptures in Studies for Thunder were created mainly by feedig short pulses of filtered noise into a complex network of granular delay lines. No natural recordings were used as source material - this is a completely artificial world. But, in a fascinating coincidence, I experienced more thunderstorms in Berlin during the realzation of this project than ever before, so that the artificial storm took shape as I was listening to the actual storms outside my windows.

The photo on the cover was taken on February 1st, 2004 at Joshua Tree National Park in California, right before an impressive thunderstorm. When recording the first sounds for Signal to Noise, I immideately remembered the color and atmoshpere I had experienced at this magical place. I looked at the image again and again during the creation of this CD, and it became the guidline and inspiration for what was to be done musically.

― shite new answers (cutty), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 00:01 (sixteen years ago)

I wouldn't call it piercing -- it's maybe more, I don't know, drifting than blissed but it's not, y'know, dark stuff -- more foggy

fantastic disc anyway

― Lee Dorrian Gray (J0hn D.), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 00:02 (sixteen years ago)

no jd the other one is called "piercing music"

― shite new answers (cutty), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 00:08 (sixteen years ago)

actually parts of the aforementioned boyd rice album are quite delicate and dreamlike, almost like oval but with vinyls instead of cds

― get a goal (rionat), Tuesday, 2 March 2010 22:26 (sixteen years ago)

it's not dark anyway. and it's cool that the record says "playable at any speed"

The Band was formed in 2005. Our name is made of the fusing words jam and ambient due to our improvising sense.We approach music youthfully.

The music we do is mainly jazz fusing all the good music.
