I’d recieved a generous grant to document the folk music (as opposed to the classical muqam music) of the Turkic muslim cultures traditionally native to the region… focusing mainly on the largest group: the Uyghurs , but also including examples of Kazakh and Kyrgyz songs. For this show, I live-mixed many of those field recordings, which while mostly consist of music, also include ambiences, pop & traditional music on cassettes & cd’s I picked up…and recordings of shortwave radio. The field recorded music you hear was, with only a few exceptions, strictly performed by common folk (farmers, carpenters, (incl. mystics and beggars)) demonstrating something that’s very much a cultural part of everyday life. With east China’s ever accellerating blitzkrieg development of it’s west though, these cultural traditions are going up in smoke fast. The recordings were done with head-worn binaural microphones – in yurts, homes, under grape trellises, in mud brick courtyards, orchards and in the streets of oasis towns in areas surrounding the expansive Taklamakan desert Several of these recordings – in purer, more carefully curated form – will be released later this year on the fantastic Sublime Frequencies label.

So the sun has returned to us here in Oakistan… for now. But why let the waters just come and go without a ceremonial seasonal “sayonara”? Unlike other stations that obsess on day to day weather forecasting, we here at s&S only need to do this once for the entire year. So, I hope you tuned in to ride the weather front – down, out and away – with a LIVE-mixed wet sound journey with the Royal Oakland Gramophone Company.

Let’s make some noise!!! Yes, I realize not all of the cicadas in this episode are of the aforementioned variety…. But with all the merry-making, I don’t think anyone minded a handful of inter-species party crashers. I’d discovered a bunch of cassette recordings online of a woman describing the month-long coming (and going) of 17 year Cicadas (Brood X) in 2004 and 1987. While her cicadas completely overloaded her recordings, her narration was what i was most attracted to… A sentimental biologist’s tone. This show was easily inspired. Insects are generally good for that. running time: 2 hours collage, electronic, experimental, live-mix, noise, spoken microphone@compound-eye.org no no http://compound-eye.org/archive/rogc-untitled-june-12th-2005/ http://compound-eye.org/archive/rogc-untitled-june-12th-2005/#comments Sun, 12 Jun 2005 21:29:03 +0000 http://compound-eye.org/archive/?p=57 http://compound-eye.org/archive/rogc-untitled-june-12th-2005/feed/ 0 0:00:01 June 12th 2005, 8pm Royal Oakland Gramophone Company – Untitled Oooo..<*)))-{ The device sat in the study of a wealthy aristocrat, while late at night the cook would haul it downstairs and perform a midnight symphony of kitchenware.

You recall the scene in star wars inside the big Jawa recycling mobile – where droids and droid parts crunched & clattered? This wasn’t much different….just moodier.

Then there was the floral shape of the bell itself, which of course attraced the futuristic mechanical insects that were sent from the far, far distant future to all points in time to invisibly relay the sounds of civilization. Something like that. This show was actually a composite of the March 20th / and March 27th 2005 shows.
