Avant garde since that NWW list
« on: 28 May 2006, 16:58 »

I think Kai posted this link somewhere:

http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/ultimathule/nww/nwwlist.html

Been digging through, seeing what I've heard, but I'm prob not even up to 20%.. I think I've heard exactly 50 of the artists, mostly the contemporary composers and Kraut rockers (although impressed Hans Bennink was in there - no Peter Brotzmann tho??).  And to be honest, of those 50, I'm a fan of at most 10.  BUT..

What would you add to the list since .. 1980? 81?  Whenever the second NWW album came out.  I have some ideas, but am curious to read others' takes on it.  

I know 25 years is a long time...

Yay! Avant garde threads!


If it were up to me:


Acid Mothers Temple and the Melting Paradise UFO - Close Encounters of the Mutants
Buckethead - Bucketheadland
Coil - Horse Rotorvator
Crotchduster - Big Fat Box of Shit
Fantomas - Delirium Cordia
Foetus - Gash
Something by John Zorn/Naked City.
maudlin of the Well - Bath
Mike Patton - Pranzo Oltranzista
Mr. Bungle - Disco Volante
Praxis - Transmutation
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - Of Natural History
Sun Ra - Other Planes of There

And certainly some others.

Damn, I've only listened to stuff from 10-15% of that list.

Sonic Youth, Glenn Branca and Black Dice would be my first inclusions to the list.  I'm having trouble thinking of more appropriate ones at the moment... which is kind of odd, because avant-garde music is generally listened to because it's groundbreaking and fresh, yet so much of the stuff I listen to is old.

My Bloody Valentine's Loveless is actually an appropriate if obvious addition to the list, considering some of the stuff on there.

Older artists who are definitely a fit and who have still released some recent material:
- James Tenney (Forms 1-4, composed in the 90s)
- Tod Dockstader (the Aerial series, released in the last couple years)

If we include artists older than that time that I think deserve to be on there, then add Edgard Varese and Frederic Rzewski to the list.

John Cage and LaMonte Young are already mentioned in that.

But anyway, I haven't actually gotten to hear most of the avant-garde stuff I've heard of (and I don't claim to have heard of much of it, either). So I guess I'll second (early) Sonic Youth (haven't gotten anything from the SYR series yet, but I want to) and Swans (though I haven't heard any of their later material).

Est, that list is fucken willfully obscure.  Just happens to vaguely coincide with some of my interests, maybe more than most indie does, so I was seizing the opportunity. :)  There's also equally formally inventive music that doesn't really fit the list...

I don't think the SYR releases are that good.  Sure, they're very difficult listening, so yep, they qualify, but I don't really understand what the pay-off is.

I think there's a bunch of fairly recent guitar experimentalists that deserve inclusion.  Keith Rowe from AMM (on that list) has collaborated with (maybe?) all of these guys, so I think that's good grounds straight up.

Oren Ambarchi
Christian Fennesz
Rafael Toral
Jim O'Rourke
(not thinking of his 2 rock records, the other 5 or 6 albums of his I've heard would all deserve mention for various reasons)

Scott Walker - for his haunted "chamber pop" albums since the 80s

Some of the freaky jazz-meets-primitive-electronics nutso shit coming out on the Rune Grammofon label ... eg. Deathprod, Alog.

Maybe The Books, at least for the first album and also maybe Zammuto's solo albums before that, particularly the rattling driftwood vibes of 'Willscher'.

Basic Channel (techno gets clogged with sand and murmurs away under the desert, occasionally coming up crackling and fizzing)

Oval / Microstoria (think both acts have appropriately organic / sequencer-free vibes to them!)

Matmos... also Matthew Herbert when he's not doing house / pop, eg. as Radioboy or Wishmountain (I think both acts are pretty average, but taking musique concrete to the people in a relatively accessible format is kinda cool... and still, despite how that may sound, formally adventurous)

If we're including Coil, I think Chris & Cosey / CTI should be on there too.

Arthur Russell?  Can we slip some disco in?  If not, his 'World of Echo', I suppose.

Loop - Like Evil My Bloody Valentine, maybe with no beards tho...

Main - The unsettling creaking and scraping of Loop's guitarist, throwing out song forms and ... well, the band, altogether.

Nuno Canavarro - weird Portuguese experimentalist from the 80s...

I actually think the Animal Collective are really relevant too, but maybe only for their earlier stuff.  That kind of noise/improv approach to electronics mixed with sorta primitivist leanings seems fitting.  To me.  Maybe.  OK, fuck you. ;)

I dunno about 'Loveless', I love it, but I think it's too blissed out for the list.  Likewise Cocteaus and This Mortal Coil.  AND I AM SO SERIOUS ABOUT THIS I WILL FIGHT ANYONE WHO QUESTIONS ME.  Or not at all.

I totally agree on Fennesz.

I'm a huge fan of O'Rourke based on Insignificance and everything Gastr Del Sol did, but am still unfamiliar with his earlier non-Gastr albums outside of the one he did with Henry Kaiser... which ones would you recommend?

I actually haven't got any solo O'Rourke outside the two rock ones, others were ones I listened to at friends' places or borrowed from my local library (!).  

The one I do definitely intend to buy is 'I'm Happy and I'm Singing and a 1, 2, 3, 4', which is 3 long pieces that basically sound like intense computer edits of a string quartet.  It moves from deliberately clipped, stuttering stuff ("is my CD player OK?") to long drawn out sections in quite a lovely way, and a few of my friends said they thought it was better than Fennesz's 'Endless Summer' (from the same year, as was 'Insignificance', actually).

'Tamper' and 'Bad Timing' are the other ones I'd like to revisit, see if I shouldn't pick them up as well...

'Tamper' gets talked about a lot, and is tape music done by editing the front of notes played on orchestra instruments, just a whole heap of fades and splices, to create what sounds like electronic music.  It's amazingly deceptive - like, it really doesn't sound like untreated acoustic sounds and the results are generally pretty enjoyable.

'Bad Timing' is also pretty fun, from memory a tip of a hat to Derek Bailey.  It's all acoustic guitar, so has more in common with whatever that last track on 'Camofleur' is than his other instrumental albums.  The title is in reference to the fact he did everything in one take, saying something about considering it stupid to try to get a perfect take with this kind of music.

Edit: Got the damn albums mixed up! Not 'Disengage', 'Tamper'!

I am currently on a life-taking quest to have EVERYTHING on that list. Mostly through vinyl sharity blogs.

I'd add-

Eddie The Rat-Food For The Moon Too Soon
Big City Orchestra- Trixxy Pixxy
The Fellowship Of Ra-There only fuckin album.


Anyone who even looks at that list has to own a Xhol Caravan album. I reccomend either Electrip or their Altena 1969 concert, which you can download at the 8 Days In April blog. (Along with lot's of other stuff from the list)

Also, a blog called Insect&Individual is dedicated to putting rare albums from this list online for download. Check it out.

No problem-

http://8daysinapril.blogspot.com
Contains loads of Krautrock, a lot of what's on the NWW list, and some other cool stuff as well. I love this site. Go download these albums immediatley-
Altena 1969-Xhol Caravan (A live concert with an almost impromptu 56 minute opera)

Nine Days' Wonder-S/T- Imagine Zappa and Crimson mixed together. Now stop mentally masturbating and make your dreams come true!*

Ash Ra Tempel-S/T (Mind melting goodness)

Also, there's a Can concert there. I haven't grabbed it yet, but it looks like good times.

http://curved-air.blogspot.com/
There's more stuff on the NWW list here.
Go grab the two Wolfgang Dauner CD's if you want to live a fulfilling life.
Grab the Faust S/T as well, though it's sorta disappointing considering the hype.

http://insectandindividual.blogspot.com/
Dedicated to posting albums on the NWW list. Obviously, grab everything here, but start with Debris'-Static Disposal. God, that's an amazing album...



*Forgive me for saying that.

(EDIT-Other sites that have nothing to do with the NWW list except tangentially but have some fantastic music-

weirdomusic.com (It leads you to wonderous things)
and comfortstand.org (online netlabel. Has an Eddie The Rat album and two Big City Orchestra albums. Though everything there is fucking A.)

I was surprised at the inclusion of some of the Italian prog groups on there, though the ones listed are all pretty far out in left-field. I was about to suggest the group Pierrot Lunaire, until I realized that it was already listed (!), so instead, I'll say Museo Rosenbach, since they more or less sound like Il Balletto di Bronzo, who was also included.

The one I'm uploading is Different Trains and Electric Counterpoint preformed by the Kronos Quartet and Pat Metheny. There are also versions performed by the Triple Quartet and by the Smith Quartet.

I'm not sure what came out first, though.

I'm pretty sure Reich personally oversaw the work on the Metheny and Kronos Quartet sessions and assembled the album insert material.  I think he also put together the sample work for that recording of Different Trains.

Yeah, and that album is only like, 12$.

For Reich, I strongly reccomend 'Music For 18 Musicians' first. enough to get anyone hooked on Minimalism.

For Riley, go to the abover Curved Air blog and download the Riley piece from there, 'A Rainbow In Curved Air'. Or buy a piece called 'In C'.

Yeah, "Music for 18 Musicians" is by far the most accessible Steve Reich piece I've heard so far, and maybe still my favorite.  I like "Piano Phase" out of his earlier material.

I stumbled upon a pretty cool version of "Electric Counterpoint" a little while ago: http://www.myspace.com/michaelmaloney.  A little different from Matheny's.

My biases being heavily towards electronic music, I'd strongly recommend Reich's famous tape pieces, 'It's Gonna Rain' and uhh.. what's it actually called? 'Comes Out'?  

Also the one where he lets two suspending microphones swing passed each other, causing feedback as they swing by.. what the hell's that called?  Something about pendulums?

I wouldn't recommend the remix album at all.  I like quite a few of the artists involved, and I like Reich, but the project seemed doomed from the start to me.

The soft marimba action on many of his other phase pieces is pretty sweet, tho.  It's funny how superficial / incidental choices like that can totally change whether or not it's enjoyable.  IMO Glass's chugging farfisa organs are bloody unlistenable by comparison.

Reich's stuff points to a lot of techno and a lot of post-rock, but I generally think a lot of the subsequent music is not so inkeeping with the spirit of the list.  Too .. pastoral?  ... lush?  .. listenable? ;)

Regarding the upload, what program do you people use to extract .rar files?  I've seen a number of options, but most just seem to be trials, so I was wondering what you would recommend

Use winrar. Sure it's a trial, but it doesn't bother you too much and keeps working. Dig through sourceforge if you're after something properly free.

Yeah, WinRAR just pops up with a little box that you just close and continue on with your business once it's time to register it. It's pretty ace.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.
