Get culture: Interview with French composer and musician Pierre Bastien, mechanical orchestras, surrealism, dada.

Radio Web MACBA wrote the following post Fri, 26 May 2023 09:08:13 +0200

#fromthevault 📻 Conversation with French composer and musician Pierre Bastien, recorded in 2010

Since the late 1970s, Pierre Bastien has been directing a totally mechanical orchestra consisting of self-playing sound sculptures. With a completely personal aesthetic influenced by Surrealism and Dada, Bastien builds his musical automata by manipulating household objects, acoustic instruments, Meccano pieces and recycled electric motors.

David Solomons of freq.org gets into intestines and backgrounds of a new release of two compositions of the "Occam" series by Eliane Radigue, played by Ensemble Dedalus.

<- An immense amount of #concentration there. -> https://freq.org.uk/reviews/eliane-radigue-occam-hepta-1-occam-xx/

"...the counterpoint of the two very different Occams nevertheless highlights agreeably the consistencies present throughout the cycle, irrespective of the instrument or even type of instrument: the gradualism, the elimination of everything extraneous and unnecessary, the intense feeling of focus and concentration, the sense of exploration undimmed by the years." https://freq.org.uk/reviews/eliane-radigue-occam-hepta-1-occam-xx/

I'm listening to the composition (Dedalus performance). It's goopy.

@Flavigula New word "goopy". Sticky, gluey? Acoustic chewing gum, exaggerated sweetness, celebration or pathos?
That analogue drone isn't my everyday listening, but it is well performed. And not just some YT video with a guy playing a synth drone ;)

I enjoyed the colourful and subtle move through timbres.

My friends and I use the word "goopy" a lot in regard to music, especially when it comes to ambient, drone and general lugubrious atmospheres. It's as if one were moving through a thick liquid. Amneotic fluid, even.
