Free Music Notes for And What Have You Done With My Body, God?Free Music Review: Let yourself dive and delve into this musical rhythmThis retrospective set of four CDs with all the historical recordings of the group is essential for anyone who is interested in modern music, electro-acoustic music, of course, what has been called concrete music, noise music, and probably some more names of the same kind. They represent the impact of modern technology, microphones, samplers, virtual editors, sound processing software, and many other computerized digitalized technologies, onto the composition process and onto the very nature and definition of music. In this case, Art of Noise keeps, most of the time, drums and percussions to create a rhythmic universe behind their music. But the whole process is to create rhythmic patterns with elements that were not originally rhythmic in essence. That's the first and probably most striking element of Art of Noise's music: its rich rhythmicity. The second element is of course at the level of the musical objects they use to compose their musical universe. They use as raw materials all kinds of instruments, all kinds of voices and all kinds of recorded noises. Then they sample, edit and process them all into a homogenized fabric dictated or just woven by the rhythmic patterns we have already spoken of. The most surprising elements are first the voices that actually say words and the meaning of these repeated words is elaborated, expanded or distorted, by the musical environment, and second the extreme musicality each sound no matter how noisy or un-musical they may have been originally. This music then represents a tremendous social change in the comprehension we have, both individually and collectively, of our modern world. More than ever every simple moment of our life is the melting pot or the salad bowl of all types of small sound tidbits that resonate and mix in a rhythmic fabric that can at times sound chaotic but that we always experience as rhythmically organized: our rhythm in our movements, or the rhythm in all the various movements we may hear, and as for that see too. Even language surrounds us and we do not catch more than a couple of words both because we are passing through and because we do not concentrate beyond these tidbits. They represent the total deconstruction of our modern world, and the no less constant reconstruction of it all at any moment, not under our eyes but in our ears.
