I understood the French better!

Same here 🙏

Are you hung up?

@@russallert Suzie Creamcheese might know !

@Evil Robot Santa Claus 🎁 💣 💥 don't you mean early years Einstürzende Neubaten!

Sounds like Neubauten in their early years for sure..Stockhausen/Cage WERE indeed influences for sure!

@HALF MT why is that lol...Einstürzende Neubaten on Kollapse Halber Mensch and Patient OT married this clangorous thunderous vicious metal percussion technique with Throbbing Gristle/Faust/Neu!/early Kraftwerk and Ton steine scherben and made up a revolution in noise sounds nobody touches and had thought about before...is my message clear to you now?

Sounds like Kollapse on a more electroacoustic music way lol!

How is this spam?

You've watched exactly one video on KZfaq

Marc Becker They didn't have the machine that goes "biiiing", that's why =P

OK boomer

I digitalized it from vhs in the best way, you are the first who critizes this

@@ZoyArtery Not criticizing your fine work--we are all grateful to you for the upload. I was making reference to the source materials/the actual film itself. The owners of the film should restore it and make it available, given its artistic importance.

@@whatevershebrings I think the word s/he meant to use was 'critiques' rather than 'criticises'. The difference is subtle, but positively balanced.

Lol...get it on...Gang Bang a Gong...Get it On!!!

A genius' masterpiece.

what?

i thought I was the only one

Oh

You find it funny and i find it influential, revolutionary and interesting.

This is heaven. Hell would be rap, hip-hop, and EDM.

@@dvamateur No this is crap music !

@@archieluxury7959 Rap is crap.

Привет Екатиринбургу.

dynamics, texture and colour equal to pitch and rhythm

Well, it isn't actually "Music" ...in that it's not an arrangement of sounds governed by the principles of Rhythm, Melody & Harmony. But is Music the only thing worth listening to? Does this "Sound Art" have less value in it's creativity or propensity to provoke thought? The presence of your comment would suggest otherwise.

Caalamus Rhythm, Melody & Harmony are quite the narrow view of what constitutes music. Take for example the evolution of departure from harmony in the sense of church modes (major, minor etc.). For me, it really first started with Mahler who bent tonal harmony to the extreme. Then came Schönberg who released music from tonal harmony by introducing free atonality and the twelve-tone method (all notes of same importance → lacking a tonic). Then came Messiaen who organized sound by colour (due to synesthesia) of the notes and modes. And from this evolution came Stockhausen who took the idea of colour outside the colour of tones and scales to colours of sound. As you can see, this music is very well with the „western tradition of music“.

PiEndsWith0 "....how is this music?" Perhaps you follow my train of thought? Also, everything you mentioned is an arrangement of sounds GOVERNED by the principles of Rhythm, Melody & Harmony. All having some rather solid Rhythm & Melody. Some of these instances, however simply evince Harmony even more profoundly through it's relationship with Dissonance. I might have more to learn about Messiaen... but otherwise, I don't feel Schönberg lacks Rhythm or Melody... even Harmony the way Stockhausen's Mikrophonie does. I maintain that the definition of Music is an arrangement of sounds governed by the principals of Melody, Rhythm & Harmony... that this is Art, valid & stimulating... though not particularly "Musical", as it lacks all three. Maybe that makes me "narrow"...

Caalamus sorry for the tl;dr I’m not saying Schönberg lacks melody, I simply used the example of harmony to show the departure from the conventional filosofy of music. Messiaen still remains under your definition of music, I think, as the combinations of tones are governed by some sort of reason. I understand. Nonetheless, how would you deal with aleatoric music where the combinations of notes are purely accidental? Or with musíque concréte that utilizes any recorded sound not discriminating between tone and noise? What I’m getting at is that your definition might simply be dated in comparison with what’s happened in music. Our music moved past having a center - getting rid of the tonic, the repetitive rhythm etc. - which are the cornerstones of your definition. One can recall Nietzsche and his “God is dead” (the immovable center is no more). This motion really mimics the birth of relativity (which also removed a one, perfect, self-sustaining center). The “step of music into relativity”, in tandem with the birth of sound synthesis, allowed composers such as Stockhausen to not only explore the relationship between regular sound waves (tones - notes), but also to explore the nature of sound as such. Which is for example what happens in this piece. Don’t search for tempered notes… try listening to the changing textures and colours of the sound as such.

WHAT ARE YOU FUCKING TALKING ABOUT ?

stockhausen's music. That's what this video and the comments section are about. i thought that was a given.

No, but seriously: what are you fucking talking about?

Fernie Canto the subject of this video. asked and answered

Sorry about your ears. Maybe give Top 40 a try? Might be more your speed

You think you are funny, but jokes on you because I actually love the sound of shovels on concrete floors. Who cares what my neighbour thinks? I have headphones :)

Yep, too easy to sneer, (a very English disease). As much as I like a "tune", sometimes a pneumatic drill blast sets you up for the day...

This is so sad to see..
