<blockquote class="Quote"><div><strong class="bc-author">vintageinfants</strong> said:</div><div><img src="http://dijgodozo.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/decomposing.jpg" alt="" /><br /> <br /> "Decomposing<br /> (1981)<br /> <br /> This is the first album playable at any speed. Being all-instrumental music, there are no voices to affect the realism of the orchestrations. Thus the album becomes a collection of electronic concertos, each movement being defined by the speed of the turntable. A turntable with speeds of 33, 45 and 78 rpm, creates a different ratio within the pieces, yet maintains a familiar melodic drama."<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> has anyone, anywhere seen this while out in the field? it was made in toronto, where i live, and i've never seen a copy. <br /> <br /> needless to say, i'm highly interested in what this sounds like.</div></blockquote> <br /> I heard it some when it came out, so yeah, I've seen it. I vaguely remember it sounding like something the early Human League would do, but again it's a long time.<br /> <br /> Ever hear the Human League's Dignity of Labour 12"? It's not bad stuff.<br /> <br /> <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ynPWzPiXDrI?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ynPWzPiXDrI?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
