New Sounds
Program #31
Show #31
Wednesday, August 25, 2004
For this 1986 From the Vaults program on New Sounds, experience irresistibly potent and alternately crushing music for various “extended techniques” involving the guitar. With psychededlic and furiously abstract stuff from Terje Rypdal to the power of Glen Branca’s massive minimalist guitar army, there’s thrill and chill. Hear ambient melodies from Brian Eno, as well as the looping creations that he and Robert Fripp produced. Plus, music from Bill Frisell and downtowner-cum-Californian Paul Dresher.
