AOT: wesome Electronic CD/DVD Set
OK, this doesn't have much about looping on it, but I just got a 3-CD + DVD
set of electronic music from Ellipsis Arts called OHM+: the early gurus of
electronic music. I haven't explored it in full yet, but the DVD is pretty
amazing, starting with a dinnertable interview with Bob Moog and an
elderly,
stately, gracious Clara Rockmore talking about what a genius Theremin was,
followed by quite a fascinating Rockmore performance. Also included is a
great video by Beryl Korot, partner to Steve Reich, an interesting but
somewhat-overlong animation called The Dust Bunny, to Paul Lansky's music,
a
1991 video of Paul Lansky's Lesson with Leon Theremin, and performances by
Robert Ashley, Laurie Spiegel, Pauline Oliveros, Alvin Lucier, etc. This is
really a historical treasure-trove. Also, it comes with a very thick
booklet
with extensive program notes.
