Label: Creel Pone CP164

同じくCreel Poneが既にCD-R化しているコンピ[Works Of Electronic Music]にも参加していたハンガリーの作家Ivan Patachich。幾つか電子音楽の名盤を残している自国Hungarotonより発表した82年LP[Musical Electro-Alchemy]のCD-R。とっつき易いジャケイメージとはまるで正反対、ソプラノ&テナーボーカルと数種のパーカッションをグラグラにねじ曲げる暗黒過ぎるコンクレート。大推薦。

>>SAMPLE<<

The only solo outing by "Works of Electronic Music" alumnus Iván Patatich, a collection of six late-70s Electronic works realized at the Institute of Sonology in Utrecht & "H'EAR" - the Electronic Music Studio of the Hungarian Radio, including "Antiphons (Antifonák)" (1977), "Calling sounds (Hivó jelek)" (1977), "Ballade" (1976), "Ludus syntheticus" (1977), "Chinese temple with echo (Kínai templom visszhanggal)" (1979), & "Hommage à l'électronique" (1978).

Much like the László Dubrovay "Live Electronic" LP / CP - whose pieces were rendered almost entirely contemporaneously with the ones here - there's an emphasis on augmented live-played & live-spoken fragments with all manner of Rack-Mount Sound-Modifying apparatus; Harmonizers, Echo, Ring Modulation, all working in glorious accord to transform the recognizable sound palette into often gristly, alien timbres.
