the final chapter of sound

Original Eliane Radigue Trilogie De Mort works on so many levels

low volume blends in with the hum of my defective fridge, ambience for 'working from home'

medium level provides a comforting blanket for sleep

at higher volumes the windows rattle, an all encompassing drone forcing one to contemplate eviction from temporal form

( edit: full disclosure, I bought the GRM CD boxset so I could play her LOUD on my hi-fi, youtube doesn't do her justice )

How is this different from the original then?

I agree though, gonna stick it on again at a medium level to be a comforting blanket for sleep in a sec, I reckon that should work out pretty well.

what @wektor posted was reggaeton remixes of the original electronic drones - the GRM albums are "beatless" ****, oscillations for navigating the bardo


Eliane Radigue _ Trilogie De La Mort

^ the original

**** although the oscillators do create beats in the original version, but not in a "club" sense

Yeah I figured it out eventually (sort of anyway, see above). At first I just thought that those were like a joke cover - I mean a joke picture on the cover. I didn't know the original, and this fits so well, But when I assumed Wektor did it that was wrong?

I've had a love affair with the original Radique recordings for years, so initially didn't click on @wektor's links to YouTube in the assumption he was talking about the GRM recordings, but when I did press play I was blown away by the reggaeton versions

he's got a point about the "final chapter"

assumed at first these would each be about 4 minutes but going for the full length is way funnier and smarter. an effect comparable to turning on the "rule of thirds" grid on a camera screen.
