Andrew Deutsch: Loop Over Land
Iasos: Inter-Dimensional Music

"Loops Over Land consists of about 50 min. of loops produced using an analog reel-to-reel tape deck and an analog tape delay system (provided by Neil Rolnick). The loops were constructed using random 'scissors clips' of Mahler's 5th Symphony and thus reflect the pastoral feel of his original composition. Some of what sound like drum beats in the loops are actually sloppy splices bathed in reverb. Production of the loops happened over the course of 2 days while I was confined to my apartment dodging an enormous snow storm. During these days of looping and confinement, I listened as deeply as possible to the sounds and envisioned large circular loops of light slowly turning over the landscape. The landscapes themselves were of lush green fields and hills dripping in recent rain while the loops shimmered gold each holding their own shape. Loops Over Land continues what I have been calling since 1987 'image drones.' Image drones are drones that are meant to evoke a very specific image for the listener. I also consider these recordings to reflect my interest in 'romantic structuralism,' a term coined by filmmaker Ken Jacobs. It seems illogical to bring the theories of structuralism and romanticism together (this was the seed of the split between Boulez and Stockhausen). However, the power of the 'structuralist activity' (see Barthes) lies in the possibility of revealing hidden functions and existing structures. The function of tonal materials in the works of Mahler were intended to induce emotive states in the listener. What I have done is isolated 'tonal moments' and made manifest their explicit function. The loops of Loops Over Land are loops of emotion embodied in the traditional form of minimalist composition. Will the loops always evoke the same feeling in every listener? I believe they will come close, at least to the Western ear." --Andrew Deutsch

This is the album that began the genre of "New Age" Music, in 1975, along with Steven Halpern's "Spectrum Suite".

This can be thought of as a sonic journey through a great many realms - from etheric tropical to inter-planetary - great for "consciousness-travelling" via sound.

This album marks the very beginning of Iasos' recording career. It is a cd version of the original record album, as well asthe bonus track: "Angel Play".

Designed for focused listening - definitely not as "background music".

New Age Journal
"Iasos is a 29 year old musical genius. While other musicians have taken cracks at creating what might be called celestial music, Iasos has perfected the art. 'Inter-Dimensional Music thru Iasos' does point to a previously unheard musical wavelength . . . an excellent vehicle for travelling toward higher planes of consciousness. In this newly developing form of Space Age/New Age music, 'Inter-Dimensional Music thru Iasos' has set the standard to which others must aspire or from which they may depart."
(Peter Simon, 1975)

New Age Retailer magazine:
"When I put on his Wave 1: Inter-Dimensional Music, I thought I'd heard nectar from heaven."
(Carol Wright, July 2001)

Iasos is great stuff.

add to that:

arica (all)
michael sterns ancient leaves + planetary unfloding
craig kupka
j.d. emmanuel wizards
swami kriya ramananda - song of the golden lotus
malcolm cecil radiance

Magnificent Void is the one where he starts getting closer to dark ambient, almost black ambient, if you like that one go directly to Immersion: One, which is the first one that's more of an installation piece than a record, the first time I put that on I waited about two minutes before realizing 'this is it, the whole piece, this one doesn't have to go anywhere or do anything' and leaned over and hit the infinite repeat key on my CD player and just left it

so are you like still listening to it?

essentially

the upcoming "live at grace cathedral" looks awesome

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 19 June 2006 19:22 (3 years ago)
