Carl Stone - ELECTRONIC MUSIC FROM THE EIGHTIES & NINETIES - VINYL LP

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 Album Tracks 1.
