description:
Superb USA-only anthology compiled by Ilhan Mimaroglu of early electronic tape music spliced at the Groupe de Recherches Musicales studios, containing several exclusive tracks which remain unreissued. These amazing pieces move from cut up noise to densely organized collages of field recordings to atonal segments grounded in more familiar instrumental timbres, often all within the space of a few minutes. The elemental Mache piece is built of sounds modeled after fire and water noises. Parmegiani's work, one of his earliest, is derived entirely from tape-manipulated voice. The version of Malec's Dahovi included here is further evolved and longer than its earlier release on the Philips Prospective 21e Siecle series. Includes insert with notes by Mimaroglu, himself a onetime INA-GRM resident. Highly recommended.

artist info from album notes etc.:
Schaeffer was a French resistance radio engineer during World War II and a researcher of television technology in addition to being the inventor of musique concrete; he founded the world's first tape music studio, was among the earliest composers to use the turntable as an instrument, invented the Phonogene (a proto-sampling keyboard), worked at the INA-GRM with Pierre Henry, Jon Appleton, Francois Bayle, Michel Philippot, Philippe Arthuys, Luc Ferrari, Jean-Michel Jarre, Michel Chion, Michel Redolfi, Jean-Claude Risset, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Edgar Varese, Olivier Messiaen, Francois Bernard Mache, Ivo Malec, Bernard Parmegiani, Ilhan Mimaroglu, Ragnar Grippe, Francis Dhomont, Guy Reibel, Jacques Lejeune, Jean Schwarz, and Iannis Xenakis, and his groundbreaking work influenced contemporaries like Tony Schwartz, Jim Fasset, John Cage, Tod Dockstader, Vladimir Ussachevsky, Tom Dissevelt, Henk Badings, and Jean-Jacques Perrey, and later electronic artists like Nurse With Wound, Christian Marclay, Otomo Yoshihide, Martin Tetreault, Erik M, Squarepusher, Aphex Twin, and Merzbow. • Malec is a Croatian composer who studied under Messiaen. • Ferrari is an electro-acoustic composer who studied under Honegger, Alfred Cortot, and Messiaen. • Mache studied composition under Messiaen and is also a writer and an expert in Greek archaeology. • Bayle studied with Messiaen, Henri Pousseur, Schaeffer, and Stockhausen. • Parmegiani was a television sound engineer who became an understudy of Schaeffer.

US Shipping Media Mail with tracking is $5.00 for up to 3 12" records, then $0.65 for each additional; Priority Mail is also available but pricing depends on zipcode (you can check eBay's calculated shipping price on this page); other expedited shipping options and insurance are all available on request. Combine multiple items to save on shipping.

International Shipping Up to 2 12" records to Europe/UK/Scandinavia/Asia/Australia is $23.00 for USPS First Class Airmail with tracking, and roughly $10 for every 2 additional lps depending on weight (7" records will cost less; heavy box sets will cost more). Up to 2 12" records to Canada is $16.50 for First Class Airmail with tracking. Up to 2 12" records to Mexico is $21.50 for First Class Airmail with tracking. Other international destinations vary as does the cost of adding additional lps depending on weight, email for a quote. Please note that First Class Airmail usually takes about 2 weeks and is uninsured. International shipments requiring insurance can use the faster but more expensive USPS Priority Mail International service or other expedited insured methods. Combine multiple items to save on shipping; I can hold paid records to be combined with a future purchase if desired. Feel free to email with any shipping questions.

Packing I pack professionally and with the utmost care drawn from years of experience trading vinyl internationally. I use new record mailers from Cameron Packaging (which I have determined are the best and most protective) reinforced with cardboard inserts and bubble wrap padding. All records are shipped with poly plastic sleeves and with the vinyl outside of the cover to prevent damage. All packages are completely sealed with strong packing tape covering all openings. Unless requested, no paper invoice is included in the package, both to save trees and to avoid customs difficulties. If you'd like your package done any differently, just let me know.

Payment I accept Paypal (which allows for fastest possible shipment). Please email with any payment questions. If you are paying by Paypal and have won multiple items, please use a single Paypal payment. I will send an eBay invoice to winners shortly after my auctions close, and an email after payment has been received to confirm item shipment.

Other Info Feel free to email me if you have any questions (need more info, want more pictures, etc.); you can use eBay's 'ask a question' function. Records are visually graded unless otherwise noted; my condition rating scale is M (sealed) / NM (unplayed) / EX (barely used) / VG (some evident wear from prior use but no major flaws) / G (major flaws) / F (very major flaws). All included album inserts are pictured in the listing; what you see is what you get, if I know an insert is missing I will mention it in the description. Satisfaction guaranteed; if you have any problems with your order please contact me directly.
