ReplyDeleteAs it happens am currently listening to his 1976 album 'Until Spring' sourced here, in case you havent got it already. Its v good.
Thanks again for your dedication.
agreed. Also: cun cun na ma is the bomb. Between cun cun and opium hum, I get a steady diet of AWESOME.
DeleteGreat recommend - just been over to Cun Cun and added them to my blogroll straight away!
DeleteLove this record, great reminder of just how far-out Nonesuch were in their early days.
ReplyDeleteA timeless electronic classic well this and his followup Wild Bull are milestones in electronica. You can hear where perhaps Tangerine Dream or Kraftwerk got some of their ideas from Subotnik. This was a 1967 recording I believe on the early Buchla synthesizer with a primitive sequencer. Truly fantastic shit! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSilver Apples Of The Moon was a deeply influential record. The band. Silver Apples, copped their name from it, and Silver Apples are AWESOME.

Whoa, I don't know how I missed that connection -- of course that's where they got their name.
Deletenot forgetting the 1994 album by english post-rocksters Laika also called...
DeleteAnother example of that is Terry Riley's "A Rainbow in Curved Air" which is where the prog outfit "Curved Air" got their name.
DeleteI knew of Silver Apples should check out their music Thanks for bringing that up.
