Nonesuch (US) 1970
H-71245 (LP)
sleeve : EX(SRW, slightly faded, light creases)
media : EX+/EX(some parts with slight crackle noise)
A compilation album released in 1970 by the prestigious American label Nonesuch Records. It's a landmark album of early electronics, featuring electronic music by three American composers: J.K. Randall, who composed numerous works from the 1960s to the 2000s; Barry Vercoe, founder of the MIT Experimental Music Studio; and Charles Dodge, who conducted research in electronic music at Bell Telephone Laboratories and MIT. While the entire album is excellent, the highlight is B1 by Charles Dodge, which occupies the entire side B. This 15-minute and 44-second long electronic piece, realized at the computer centers of Columbia University and Princeton University, features vivid electronic sounds darting through the soundscape. A3 by J.K. Randall also offers pleasant electronic sounds.
A3: J.K. Randall "Mudgett"
B1: Charles Dodge "Changes"
