I love this album rn!!!

[@chrisjames6327]

You need to respect how hard it was to make electronic music in the 30s. I mean, this was 30 years ahead of it's time. It probably wasn't until the Beatles made Tomorrow Never Knows that it this surpassed as an electronic recording

I really like the chorus on this one. It stays in the ear.

[@shrewdagency6588]

Um... That would be tinnitus my friend 😮😂

John just created a history

[@canalparadoxo8326]

I need the sound (that starts in 5:20 and ends at 5:28) in my ears more times. So satisfying

[@lydiamacintyre3729]

I’m picturing a 1950s sci fi horror western movie where aliens land in a small desert town.

[@jlang7705]

I'm picturing Dog Shit, and an Academic who had no brains- a con man - a guy who couldn't compose his way out of a paper bag. what a waste.

[@P.L.H.The2nd]

Such uniquely Electroacoustic music to ever existed It's haunted, and quite sincerely creepy in Electronic Music

[@glitchesandglitter]

I liked the part where it went reeeeeeeee

[@JasonEdwards-w3v]

Has this ever been sampled in by any chance? Just imagine a modern day rave track being played in some warehouse in Berlin or a field at Glastonbury and a group of people dancing to this with drum beat behind it. Not realising that this was an absolute breakthrough in Musical History.

[@adude9882]

Nice balance between the sounds.

[@swiftfox3461]

Whoa, sounds surprisingly good. This wouldn't be out of place in a soundtrack for a horror film, or a Fallout game.

[@biketickler65]

Fallout ambient noise

@@biketickler65 horror film? 🤔

[@raisaveldhuizen5544]

I feel like this would be perfect to be used in a horror movie. I love it.

[@OSIRIS1980WHS]

Just listened to HEROIN. Stroke of luck to then discover this video. I rave often about METAL MACHINE MUSIC.

[@carloslp6980]

Y asi comenzo la musica electronica señores...

[@mirkofernandez3491]

and from there to electronic music...

[@juanstill]

I guess there is some digital glitching like in 0:51 and many more. All audio signal stops for a second fraction, seems more digital than analog kind of error.

[@MARBenard]

Amazing, thanks for the upload with spectrogram. Just one thing, at 6:42 the screen becomes black. Cheers!

Great!! Thanks for uploading.

Lorsque j’écoutai cette œuvre tout bonnement fabuleuse en 1349, cela me donna l’envie de trancher très amicalement des tranches de saucisson afin que j’en râpasse du gruyère bourré de cholestérol dans le but de nourrir les rapaces, lesquels guérissaient de la peste noire...

[@noebillon9949]

Appelez moi Jésus de Nazareth, ou plutôt Marcel le Roi de la Spatule pour être plus intime... bref, je suis le Christ cosmique, et je compte sauver l’humanité de la pandémie du Covid-19 de la même manière que j’ai râpé du saucisson au vinaigre au XIVe siècle. Je ne compte cependant pas me présenter aux élections présidentielles de 2022. En effet, la stratosphériquement immensissime charge de travail que j’ai m’empêche de m’investir dans une fût-elle carrière politique de mes deux... même si, je l’espère, j’aurai eu d’ici là ce wallah de DEM...

[@neilkiots]

Do you know of any variable-speed phonograph recordings or electroacoustic recorsings that pre-date this? i've heard about some pieces by Hindemeth and Toch that may have inspired Cage in 1930, but haven't found any recorded material before 'imaginary landscapes'.

My ear drums are currently having their first period but for 1939 and how depressed everyone was back then ill let it slide for making such a monstrosity

[@t.b.h1395]

This really isn't that bizarre; it's just electronic music, and it's an amazing use of limited technologies to create such an interesting soundworld in this piece, which I like a lot. Forgive me, but your comment is rather close minded and limited in its thinking.

[@champ1114]

[@space_engeneer5022]

why?

[@marvelhazeldene5874]

There would be no music if people never experimented and made weird shit along the way. This is the earliest example of electronic music we have recorded, he was way ahead of his time even if it’s not something many enjoy.
