FROM SCRATCH - CD FIVE RHYTHM WORKS

Popis - FIVE RHYTHM WORKS:
Founded in 1974 and based in New Zealand, sound-performance
group From Scratch used an evolving array of percussion
instruments to create distinctive rhythmic music. Their
material was texturally rich and tonally sumptuous, making use
of found and repurposed objects as well as custom-made
percussion instruments. Given their Pacific identity, one can
find similarities with a number of Asian Pacific genres. This
music will appeal to open-eared listeners and it will intrigue
admirers of the early work of Steve Reich and Terry Riley.
These four tracks, dating from the period 1974-1982, have been remastered from the original master tapes.
