Sunspots IV
10 min

Sunspots 4-8 are part of a series of pieces that seek to create unusual sonic worlds, something like field recordings of imaginary environments. The pieces in this series heard tonight were all created using a Buchla 200 analog synthesizer during a residency at the Elektronmusikstudion in Stockholm, Sweden in the summer of 2013.

PAUL LANSKY
Ride
19 min

Ride (2000) also has a predecessor in Night Traffic (1990), (Bridge CD 9035, Homebrew). The latter was based on a recording of a local four-lane highway in Princeton Junction, New Jersey. Ride is based on a new recording of the same road, but now this material is embedded in a richer and more complex texture. The work attempts to capture the sensation of being on a ride through various landscapes, towns and villages, rather than the experience of watching traffic pass by. Its grand orchestral manner is not unlike that of its elder sibling, which a friend of mine once described as “Tod und Verklärung on wheels.”
