About this product
Electronic Music from the Eighties and Nineties presents the soothing, hallucinatory side of Stone's slow-evolving, time-bending composition. While we can't always identify the source, we can hear that his sounds come from somewhere, and that there is a InchcorrectInch or InchcompleteInch version of them in theory; and so we can hear when they are being changed. What drives Stone's music is the flow that he draws out of those differences the way an Indonesian gamelan morphs into a chorus built from one female vocalist over the course of InchMae YaoInch's twenty-three minutes, the surprise emergence of a Mozart chorus out of the synths and skip-glitches of InchSonali,Inch or the slow, ambient evolution of InchBanteay SreyInch. InchWoo Lae Oak,Inch issued in a single side edit for the first time, is an exception. It's samples - a tremolo string and a bottle being blown across the top like a flute - are simple in the extreme. Yet the Stone hallmark is clearly present, he locates the inherent emotional properties of the sounds - the tingling anticipation of the string and the calm nobility of the wind - and takes them into unexpected expressive territory tag Unseen Worlds

Electronic Music from 1972-2022 seeks to frame fifty years of Carl Stone's compositional activity, starting with Stone's earliest professionally presented compositions from 1972 (InchThree ConfusongsInch and InchRyound ThygizunzInch, featuring the voice and poetry of Stefan Weiser - later known as Z'EV) up to the present. This collection is not meant as a definitive history but rather as a supplement to be used alongside the previous two archival releases. It is simultaneously an archival marking Carl Stone's evergreen 70th birthday and a document of archival art. In the spirit of disorienting repetition and layering, call it an archive of archiving. Stone's practice emerged from the repetitive archival process of his graduate job at CalArts preserving vinyl recordings by dubbing them to tape. With perhaps 10,000 albums ranging from Renaissance and electronic works to music from across the globe, he had to re-record multiple discs concurrently, creating chance collisions and coincidences. In the decades since, he's explored various ways to compose this process, creating temporal envelopes in which found sounds - existing tracks or field recordings - can take form. Whilst the technologies he's used have changed and samples have varied beyond categorization, what's remained consistent is his concern for organizing temporal experience using fragments of pre-existing sounding events. Stone's impish collage-like constructions of times cut from time suggest that archival records are neither wholly in documents preserved from change nor in living memories and use, but in their interaction.
Carl Stone continues his late career prolific renaissance with a new album of sculpted, tuneful MAX/MSP fantasias. Stone InchplaysInch his source material the way Terry Riley's In C InchplaysInch an ensemble - with a loose, freewheeling charm connected to the ancient human impulse to make sound, melody, and rhythm from anything. Stone's unique technique simultaneously focuses and sprays sound like a symphony of uncapped fire hydrants. Is this techno, avant-garde, sound art? It's simply (or rather fantastically messily) Carl Stone.
