'creation du monde' is amazing, will be making the rounds for years, you're
not late...

>more like this, please.

francois bayle, 'toupie dans le ciel' and 'erosphere'.  and 'jeita' too.
I've never been let down by him though.  roots of modern textural
acousmatic are him and parmegiani, I only got 'creation du monde' earlier
this year and was similarly blown away.

a few years ago I bought parmegiani's 'pop eclectic', 60's plunderworks.
they're good, expanding on the james tenney collages, but I wasn't
compelled to go further until now, and now that I've heard 'monde' I'm
sorry I waited this long.  de natura sonorum's great too:

and dockstader / mimaroglu for earlier roots but you prolly know that
already, more primitive but fucking great.

I always thought Autechre were a little too repetitive, until LP5, every
album since then has impressed me more and more.  'confield' maybe not as
much but the one two punch of 'grantz graf' / 'draft 7.30', now I'm a
believer.

also really fucking good:  the new mix of persepolis on the Editions RZ 2
CD set that just came out.  It's the third time I've bought the piece, but
this is the one to get, it's like I've never heard it before, it's really
been carefully thought out.  previous mixes basically took the 8-channel
multitrack and mixed it flat, which is probably not at all how the piece
was performed in concert... this guy (Daniel Teige) really figured out the
internal dynamics suggested by the sounds and produced the definitive
livemix.  It's my favorite Xenakis release since the EMF compilation...
