Any fans of him here? I had to perform his clapping music for my final piece in AS Level Performing arts. His stuff has startedto grow on me. Especially his early stuff. It's great to listen to through headphones |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There must be some fans out there |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, yes! I'm not a die hard fan, but I'm familiar with the 'music for ?? musicians' Great! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...and his technique of tape loops and phasing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, his technique of phasing is very good. I do enjoy it so =oD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also like Electric Counterpoint very much... Also Tellehiem...(is that how it is spelt ?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pendulum music sucks though...my fave phase piece is Violin Phase. |

steve reich is off the hook! do a search on "reich" here and you'll find some lengthy discussions. i also wrote an acclaimed 19 page comparison of a piece by reich to aphex's SAW2 and i can give you a link to that if you're interested in reading it. |

I have different trains by him. It's one helluva weird album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my favorites are "music for large ensemble," "eight lines," "tellahim," "drumming," "music for mallet instruments, voices and organ," "electric counterpoint," and of course "music for 18 musicians." the early phase stuff is interesting, but my favorites (the melodic works) evoke a feeling that is otherworldly. i have tremendous esteem and respect for steve reich. |

Didn't The Orb basically steal the whole theme for "star 6 7 8 9" from "electric counterpoint"? |

Steve Reich is performing (he's also doing a seminar, where he's discussing his sources of inspiration) here in Trondheim this Saturday and Tuesday. I haven't heard anything of him, but i think i'll go anyway. |

Reich is great. just about all of it. from his early tapeworks to "City Life". |

Come out to show ?dem. I just listened to that this morning. Totally unique style. |

Steve Reich is the divine embodies in a musician. Probably one onf the most amazing musical experiences you can ever have is entering a transe while listening to "drumming". I recommend the ECM version of 18 musicans (although the sound quality isn't that great) as it has more character than the Nonesuch recording. To quote a friend "i want to have his kids by anal birth". |

"And then I opened the bruise up and let some of the blues blood come out to show them ... come out to show them ..." |

"....Come Out. Composed in 1966, it was originally part of a benefit .... for the retrial, with lawyers of their own choosing, of the six boys arrested for murder during the Harlem riots of 1964. The voice is that of Daniel Hamm, now aquitted and then 19, describing a beating he took in Harlem's 28th precinct station. The police were about to take the boys out to be "cleaned up" and were only taking those that were visibly bleeding. Since Hamm had no actual open bleeding he proceeded to squeeze open a bruise on his leg so that he would be taken to the hospital. "I had to like open the bruise up and let some of the bruise blood come out to show them." |

Octet has some of the swingingest sounds this side of those microphones that moved in similar fashion. It's like ten PBS specials playing at once, and they're all about ducks. PBS stands for public broadcasting service. |
