TUDOR, DAVID - Microphone

-¢‚Ǩ-ì2014 digitally remastered reissue; originally released on LP in 1973 as number 16 in the Nova Musicha series. This work is an exploration of space and sound through feedback; the album features two long tracks -- "Mix A" and "Mix B" -- and both appear to involve spare sounds in space, filtered through additional electronics, often with the effect of a microphone feeding back, then suddenly halted. Tudor manipulates the sounds enough to pull out some compelling waveforms, especially on "Mix B" -- and the album offers up a much darker side of his music than one might expect from the early years. Recorded at Center for Contemporary Music, Mills College, Oakland, California. Includes 12-page booklet with photographs, score, and liner notes in Italian.-¢‚Ǩ¬ù - Cramps.
