★Creel Pone
MusikAutomatika
Here’s a first - for Creel Pone at least - a reproduction of the debut album by this Venezualan Electro-Acoustic collective, featuring Luis Levin, Alvise Sacchi, and Stefano Gramitto, recorded at some point between the group’s inception in 1978 and t…
No Imagination
Upon first glance at this Creel Pone reproduction of an obscure 1980 private-press Synth / Art-noise LP - originally issued on “Vinyl Records” - two things caught my attention: the phrases “Electronic Instruments designed by: Serge Tcherepnin” & “Spe…
Greek Electronic Music-1
Jeeeezus ... so here’s just about the best record ever, a collection of late 60s pieces from 6 Hellenic composers, only one of which even rates a single listing in the Hugh Davies book, Michael Adamis. See that on the cover? it’s the patch-bay of an …
Who Says Birds Don't Do Things Just For Fun?
Wow, just wow. One of the dynamics at play in the C.P. program that has been all but absent in the recent catalogue is the "one man against the world" spec. These politically-charged times make me hesitant to use the catch-all "outsider", although, i…
Weird Sounds, Crazy Sounds
Spot-on reproduction of this mythical 1969 TVMusic library (TVM 102, right after TVM 101’s “Cosmic Sounds b/w Electro Sounds”) offering a side of “Weird sounds” by Georges Teperino (again, aka Nino Nardini, Peter Bonello) & one of “Crazy Sounds” by R…
Chimie Du Son / Stoeien Met Geluid
I hope you're been enjoying the Creel Pone 19x "Doubles" series; some great multi-disc titles that simply couldn't wait for their usual "every ten catalogue number" positions, especially as the series is running out of spots approaching its intended …
Omnicircus
Creel Pone replication of this wonderful 1979 Chicagoland "Paste-on" Private Press LP offering a single "Electronic Composition" in two parts, "Kriegspiel" & "Eropoc," intended at the soundtrack "for the first 2 sections of 'OMNICIRCUS', a theatre pi…
Canto Ecuménico/Litania/Homo Sapiens
Composed at the GRM - the two B-side pieces, both in 1972 - & at his own “Private” studio in Porto - the A-side, 1979 - this trilogy of Musique Concrète pieces by the Portugese composer Filipe Pires was initially issued in 1980 as part of Imavox’s “D…
Espace et Actualité, Lunar Probe
Issued simultaneously in 1967 as eye-popping Musique pour l’Image - subtitled “Espace Hostilité Apesanteur Sciences • Danger” - & Music De Wolfe 10”s, this collection of Musique Concrète & experimental compositions marked the vinyl debut - discountin…
Elektronski Studio Radio Beograda
1975 collection, the first to offer pieces from the Serbian electronic music studio “Elektronski Studio Radio Beograda,” with work from Paul Pignon (his “Hardware Performance” trilogy, split across two sides - supreme, distant analogian bleep of the …
Electronic Music, University of Melbourne
Remarkably consistent collection of pieces composed / executed between 1973 and 1979 by students at the University of Melbourne on the megabeast of modulars: the EMS Synthi 100 - now residing, unplugged and finally at peace, at the Percy Grainger mus…
Electronic Music, Experimental Studios In Prague, Bratislava, Mu
Welcome back everyone! Hope you enjoyed those few weeks off from the natural Creel Pone "Cycle." We continue, as promised by Mr. P.C. C.P., "Unabated throughout the end of the summer." First up, "Electronic Music - Experimental Studios in Prague, Bra…
Electronic Music by Caron, Perron, and Dawson
Reproduction of this 1981 collection, issued by McGill University (making it the other covetable French-Canadian collegiate-issue Electro-Acoustic side ... along with the Bengt Hambraeus “Concrète & Synthesizer Music” set) covering the work of three …
Musiques Électroacoustiques, Le Mur
Creel Pone treatment of two issues of Chilean Composer Edgardo N. Canton’s Early Electro-Acoustic music, entirely composed & executed during a residency at the GRM that started in 1959 & ended in 1965 - although he stayed on as an adjunct composer un…
Still Life in Concrete
After a fruitful think-tank session (during which a selection of the european faction of the C.P. cognoscenti met in one of Berlin’s seedier bars to brainstorm new “candidates” for inclusion in the series, now in its 8th year) a couple of great title…
Avant Garde
Trucking right along, here’s the 1974 second entrant from British library Studio G’s “Avant Garde” series, featuring a trilogy of pieces composed by none other than “Acezantez” head Dubravko Detoni - only his second LP release following the storied “…
Entropical Paradise
Hope you all had a fine summer off. As something of an “Autumn Welcome” here’s a treat - Mr. P.C. C.P.’s reproduction of Douglas Leedy’s groundbreaking 1972 Seraphim-label triple-LP boxed set “Entropical Paradise” - in my mind, the lodestone of all M…
Herbstpathetique, Bildnis
Issued by the mythical “Musikalische Jugend Österreichs” (the same who bestowed Anestis Logothetis’ “Hör!-Spiel / Nekrologlog 1961 / Fantasmata 1960” LP onto a confused, irradiated public a few years later) in 1972, this, frankly, batshit outing of S…
April Orchestra Vol.5
Impeccable short-stab collection of bizarrely prescient rhythmic synthesizer metallics from Amedeo “Di Jarrell” Tommasi (rumor has it that Di Jarrell is his wife’s maiden) - an Italian jazz pianist that, from the mid-70s on, dabbled in crushing analo…
Musique Numérique
Creel Pone treatment of this Private-Press LP of late-70s spectral computer music by Daniel Arfib. Aside from Conrad Cummings’ review of the LP in the fall 1981 issue of Computer Music Journal, I’ve seen nary a mention of Mssr. Arfib’s early Digital …
