Another Al Margolis uber-experimental cassette?Suely not?
Side
A of Organ life is given over entirely to the art of the ever
intensifying one chord organ drone. For 30 minutes we are treated to the
same keys of an Organ held down with increasing levels of vibrato ,
until Al runs out of cassette tape. Great for out of body experiences
,or just plain old parallel dimension exploration without mind altering
substances.
Side B, ‘Loop de
Loop’, is as self explanatory as Side A. Processed sampled loops drone
in and out of sync with reality and each other ,in the era before
timestretching. Parts sound not unlike something produced by the BBC
Radiophonic workshop in the early 60’s.
This
whole tape must have been produced in not much more than a couple of
hours, but it is quite/quietly effective, meditative, and strange enough
to be considered a worthwhile endeavour .
