More background on Tristram Cary's Divertimento: for Olivetti machines, chorus and percussion.

"Cary gathered the sounds in Olivetti's London showroom with a Nagra tape recorder, a mixer and microphones. He then transformed the machine noises with his electronic equipment at his private studio, including softening the sounds, and using them both at normal speed and considerably slowed down."

This video has everything: #ModernComposition #olivetti corporate staff, vintage #BritishRail trains, and of course what is now #retrocomputing, but back then would have been cutting edge technology.

It's #BandcampFriday - hoping for a couple of listens to my music, which is too active for ambient, too noisy for cinematic, plus is hard to dance to - thanks!

This is a curious record. Its called Vora and it is by Raulsson (Raul Pastor Medall). Produced by Nils Frahm and released by Sonicpieces, it is lovely to listen to and look at. I suppose you'd call it modern composition - very closely mike-ed piano and languid strings. The sleeve has a cut out panel filled with cloth, making it tricky to photo. It's on streaming services. Give it a shot.

@helpstertee nice - enjoy “no beats”. In case your interested my no-beat collection… https://johnjhphillips.bandcamp.com #soundart #moderncomposition #electroacoustic #musicconcrete #acousmatic #experimentalmusic #synthesisers

Just can't decide whether to spring for a Microcosm for my small analog synths, or use AUM on my iPad for processing... I want physical knobs, but worried that Microcosm is limited and my investigations of the unit will end up sounding like everyone who uses a Microcosm... thoughts?

I do like a bit of calm & contemplative neoclassical musical on a Sunday, & the sophomore LP from young French pianist Rémi Fay is hitting the sweet spot today, as he painstakingly frames time, space & place with his succinct piano, ambient noise & well chosen collaborators with a similar minimal disposition.

I saw Caroline Shaw and So Percussion last night at the Kennedy Center and they were amazing. The most amazing thing was SO doing Julia Wolfe's composition "Forbidden Love." You really have to see it to believe it. This version is from a couple years ago but is equally fun: https://youtu.be/uAbXpdJsA6E

So Ben McElroy & A Spot on the Hill are back with another taste of their forthcoming LP on The Slow Music Movement label, and it's a beautifully judged, contemplative slice of minimal neoclassical music where the space aerates and further elevates the succinct composition. Stream the single on your favourite streaming service here: https://ampl.ink/wkb48

High winds and cold rain lashing outside, so I'm diving into the tranquil pool of Harold Budd's minimalism. A late-period album, starting with a suite of slowly decaying piano ambience, and finishing with a suite of beautifully elegaic chamber strings.

Harold Budd - In The Mist (2011)

The first single from the forthcoming Everything Was Different Yesterday LP from Ben McElroy & A Spot On The Hill has arrived and it's a beautiful, soothing slice of neoclassical music with Ben's consummate strings and sound design elevating the dreamy minimalism of Dan's piano work to new heights. I hope you enjoy it.
