Free Music Notes for Anthology of Noise 1/Various

Free Music Review: incredible collection of cutting edge sounds
Hit: 5 Stars

I finally tracked this one down back in 2005, and it was worth waiting to hear! This is Volume 1 of a series assembled by Guy Marc Hinant for Sub Rosa, but this is the gem of the series -- Volumes 2 and 3 don't contain as much of the rare, early pioneering music.

The entire first disc is fantastic, with major works by Ruttman, Schaeffer, Pousseur, Mumma, and Boehmer. There are a couple of quirky pieces thrown in, including the sounds of the fighting robots of the Survival Research Laboratories, but they work. Compared to much of what was produced in the onslaught of electronica since the early 1990s, it is amazing how much variety and creativity these older works are brimming with.

The second disc contains more amazing selections -- Cage's "Rozart Mix" and Nam June Paik's "Hommage a John Cage," Varese's masterpiece the "Poeme Electronique" and Xenakis's short "Concret PH," which were played together at the famous 1958 Philips Pavilion at the World Fair in Brussels, (the pavilion designed by Xenakis using the same equations he used to produce glissandi in his music! -- that's it on the cover of this disc), and a long piece by Pauline Oliveros. This one goes on too long at 30', but the ideas are fascinating for about 1/2 or 2/3 of that time. The more recent piece by dj Spooky is excellent, and Sonic Youth electronically manipulating crowd noise not only fulfills the "noise" part of the disc's title, but is strangely compelling in its own right.

The peak level of inventiveness and the variety make this disc compulsively listenable, in addition to being a treasure trove of electronic music landmarks.
