Whaddya mean? The Residents are accessible  :D

 

 

If you're on hallucinogens....??

 

I used to live with a flatmate in the late 70's who was trying to get me onto The Residents.....she failed but I did discover Snakey, who I could relate to much more readily. It's just me.....?

There were some weird bands around at that time.Here's a couple more.

Renaldo & The Loaf - Songs For Swinging Larvae

A mate of mine,Wayne Simpson,was executive producer of a music show on SBS in the '80's called Rock Around The World. They used to broadcast all mannerof weirdness. Left Rage for dead. Here's one of the bands that used to get aired, Germany's Palais Schaumburg.  :D

Jacques Dudon: Lumieres Audibles

https://www.listentothis.info/2016/10/jacques-dudon-lumieres-audibles-1995/

< “In his ‘photosonic’ process, Dudon shines light through a series of semi-transparent, rotating discs that slow and modify the light waves’ frequencies; the resulting waveforms are picked up by photoelectric (solar-power) cells connected to standard analog amplifiers.”

– Kala Pierson, review in ‘The New Music Connoisseur

 

“I discovered these very particular waveforms from the beginning of my disk experimentations. Their sonorities, both complex and transparent, are among the oddest, reminding those of inharmonic tones or hisses. Their audition is often accompanied by very powerful psychic effects, the ear recognizing precise textures, paradoxically without being able to give them any determined fundamental pitches. This comes from the fact that graphically, and by analogy with the fractal images, these waves are generated by laws of geometrical development, putting in action the same organizing principles whatever the scale they are being observed at. The synthesis, on a disk, of a white noise, sets a very interesting mathematical problem, which can’t be resolved by shapes thrown in a hazardous way, neither by other aleatory parameters, which would only produce a buzz, while a white noise is the undifferentiated mixture of all frequencies. Fractal waveforms are up to this date what I found the most successful for a white noise imitation. In this CD are explored three of these fractal waveforms, with their related intonations: the “Clar” fractal waveform, and its first developments, in “Hexagrammes” (track 8); the “Phi” fractal waveform, starting point of “Fleurs de lumière” (tracks 1-2-3); and the “Mohajira” fractal waveform, at the basis of “Sumer” (tracks 4-5-6-7).”

The Young Gods are ageless, and still ahead of the game 33 years on. For me at least, the best band of the last three decades, without question.

G'day Dave.  Man, I haven't thought of or listened to them for years.

 

Our local video rental shop (late '80's, early '80's) used to rent out CD's as well.  I can't remember which album it was, but I taped a Young Gods CD onto cassette and played it a fair bit.

Will have to do some research and check out which album it was.

 

Thanks for the reminder, will check out some of these clips in the next few days.

 

Cheers,

Ant.

I'm only listening to side two of this before retiring, but I feel moved to post it. The last two songs are pure beauty. There is definitely something special about the Italian avant garde, although it appears that Alvin Curran was one of the minds behind this, and Steve Lacy contributes to several tunes.

 

Maria Monti, Il Bestiaro

2017 LP reissue on Holidays Records. A noisy pressing, but utterly beautiful in spite of that.

Some language deconstruction and non music before bed. Wild Bill makes cut-up recordings with help from "close" friends Brion and Ian. Reinhold abuses the insides and outsides of a grand piano, among other things. Head, cleaned :turned:

 

Good night.
