steve says:<br>
<br>
</font></font>
<blockquote><font face="Arial" size="-1">"a strange wonderful sound
filled the room, a sort of singing, though<br>
accompanied by words, was so supernaturally soft and touching that you
could<br>
not believe it came from a human throat... "<br>
gerhart hauptmann, the fool in christ.<br>
<br>
for this show, i simply wanted to present some of my favorite 78's. i've<br>
included not only songs, but 78's containing fabricated field recordings<br>
(nature sounds made by people in a recording studio), and a recent
recording<br>
of spoken excerpts from gerhart hauptmann's novel "the fool in christ"
that<br>
describe sounds (kind of a written equivalent of audio field recordings
-<br>
and an excerpt from a larger text work recording every sound in the
book).<br>
<br>
the songs were chosen because of their relationship to the hauptmann
quote<br>
above - and each track has singing that for one reason or another,
makes me<br>
tremble. the weather sounds are pauses - stopping by the side of the
road to<br>
take in the view - while the text is kind of an architectural structure
that<br>
frames the older recordings. after selecting the parts, i just allowed<br>
things to collide in various ways until it felt right.<br>
<br>
the order of the songs has a bit of an upwards trajectory - beginning
with a<br>
john jacob niles rendition of a lullaby (birth/earth), and ending with a<br>
song that references the moon. songs were recorded in the usa, japan,<br>
turkey, greece, egypt, and others. they explore everything from
meditations<br>
and prayers, to love and wandering. the players are hillbillies, divas,<br>
hawaiian guitarists, gurus, gospel singers, the most famous male indian<br>
playback singer, and others.<br>
<br>
everything, other than the voice reading the text, comes from old worn
78rpm<br>
discs. one features weather sounds made with drums, metal, etc., while
the<br>
other features bird songs made by a man (presumably with his mouth). the<br>
scratches, scars, and crackles tend to sound a bit like weather
conditions<br>
as well (and in one section the sound of rain is completely inaudible<br>
beneath the similarly sounding active surface of the record itself.)<br>
<br>
i've been collecting 78's for years, but i've hardly gathered the
caliber of<br>
material that would constitute a bonafide record collector's
collection. for<br>
me, the gathering has become a journey of wander, leading to various<br>
destinations of wonder. i don't look for specific artists or genres<br>
(although, i have tendencies of course), as much as i kind of bump into<br>
things - during weekly 6 am visits to the flea market or late night
virtual<br>
jaunts online. i generally have little idea of what i'm going to hear
until<br>
i drop the needle onto the surface of the disc. often enough, a
recording<br>
will be unbearably dull (what can you expect when purchases are based
on a<br>
song title, artist name, or disc label art); but when there are
surprises,<br>
they tend to be good - and once in awhile, mind bending. these are some
of<br>
the gems. </font></blockquote>
