#ROY BUDD FEAR IS THE KEY RAR PORTABLE#And tying it all together with moody beauty are David Axelrod, Roy Budd, Pierre Arvay, Mother Mallard’s Portable Masterpiece Co., Neu, Cluster, Alice Coltrane, Nino Nardini, Egisto Macchi, Joe Meek, Bernard Estardy, Brian Eno, Luciano Cilio, Franco Battiato and the United States of America. Adding texture and experimentalism are Tod Dockstader, Jon Appleton, Yoko Ono, Erkki Kurenniemi, Pierre Henry, Dick Raiijmakers, Alvin Curran, Tangerine Dream’s Klaus Schultze, Francois Bayle, and Bernard Parmegiani. And second, work from minimalists, hazy psychedelia and musique concrete artists creates the contemplative web of melody and texture that holds the mix together.įrom the heavy camp, we have artists like Led Zeppelin (who created the original mammoth rock drum sound) and Miles Davis (with the insanely heavy “Rated X”), early Kraftwerk, Ennio Morricone’s The Feed-Back, the Silver Apples, Jaki Liebezeit-led Can, This Heat’s Charles Hayward, White Noise, Heldon, Joe Ufer, Janko Nilovic and Faust. First, art rock (Krautrock especially,) sound library and soundtrack music, and fusion jazz–all with drums as huge as possible–recreate the bursting energy and ferocious beats. ‘Zygotic‘ recreates this blend from two major strands. But despite these distorted and compressed elements, the music is (literally) highly dynamic, and around and between these sonic boulders and rocks is a beautiful and melodious stream of electric piano and organ, treated vocals, strings and xylophones, and ambient texture. Other sonic “solids” are created with stabs of distorted guitar, swooping harps, distant bells, and subtle percussion. ‘Embryonic’s central production feature is the classic Lips technique of very heavily compressing the drums, creating a distorted, absolutely massive sound, this time devoted to more intricate and sexier beats than ever before. Various Artists - 'Zygotic' (After the Flaming Lips' 'Embryonic') (2009) Just in case you missed it over at the Flaming Lips - 'Embryonic' thread-I've put together a mix inspired by, and possibly digging in the roots of, the Lips' astonishing new album: #ROY BUDD FEAR IS THE KEY RAR FOR FREE#I hope you dig it- get it here at Musicophilia.Īlso, if you missed it before, if you like the mixes at Musicophilia, please take a moment to participate in the 1st Birthday poll and drop a comment there to be entered in a drawing for free CDs from favorites like David Axelrod, Kluster and Jean-Jacque Perrey.
