This is What We Call Sound Collage

Описание: This is a 75 minute mix of the 4 hrs of Sound Collage tracks we selected for the Sound Collage RYM Box Set. I had to edit out Revolution #9 from the mix as its blocked in every country. :( I'll be likely doing some mix series for some of the sets soon as well as some ongoing guest mixes from Gal Defend.

Sound collage is a musical technique where various sound pieces are layered and essentially "glued" together in order to create an auditory art piece. With the creation of magnetic tape as a form of media storage, artists within the Musique concrète schools were able to create abstract collages of various sounds recorded to tape. Tape Music and Electroacoustic's development furthered the growth of collage-style music - however most of these were confined to the avant-garde and classical music fields, with artists such as Iannis Xenakis, John Cage, Brion Gysin, William S. Burroughs, and Terry Riley utilising collaging as a catalyst to drive their artistic ideas forward. It wasn't until the late-1960s to 1970s (with more tape and media technology becoming readily available) that artists began making collage pieces primarily as collages in their own right.

The late-1970s and 1980s saw the rise of sampling within music, with bands like Negativland leading the way for sample-based, collage-style music. John Oswald wrote about and developed this musical style into Plunderphonics, a genre focused entirely around the use of samples to create new pieces of music. The rise of Industrial music also saw the use of collaging, with acts like Throbbing Gristle, Nurse With Wound, and Big City Orchestra creating haunting pieces of music made from collaging samples with original material.

I may get a few of my own mixes inspired by the rymboxset.com series, stay tuned for more.
