“I’d say that I had the need to concentrate on every sound, so that every blade of grass would be as important as a flower.”
~ Arvo Pärt.
Bjork interviews Arvo Pärt (part of the programme ‘Modern Minimalists’)
Arvo Pärt talks about his composition ‘Fur Alina’
Now this is interesting stuff… BBC News has a story about a woman called Delia Derbyshire who produced the theme song of the famous Dr. Who science fiction television series. Paul Hartnoll from the techno outfit Orbital is quoted…
From Dr. Who to The Dark Side of the Moon to modern day dance music, the pioneering members of the Electronic Music Studios radically changed the sound-scape of the 20th Century. ‘What the Future Sounded Like’ tells this fascinating story of British electronic music. ‘What The Future Sounded Like’ mixes experimental visual and sonic techniques with animation and never-seen-since archival footage. A sonic and visual collage, this documentary colors in a lost chapter in music history, uncovering a group of composers and music engineers who harnessed technology and new ideas to re-imagine the boundaries of music and sound.
