> I just picked up an excellent 3" CD on Metamkine records by Christine > Groult. It's excellent academic Concrete style stuff, very drony and > minimal. When i was aon holiday in Berlin i saw the whole label back > catalogue in a shop (i can only recall Jim O'Rourke artist-wise > though) and really regret not getting them then - so can anyone fill > me in on what the other stuff on the label sounds like, or give me > some background to it, or give me a clue where to actually get it? the most interesting one is the Walter ruttman... it was recorded in the 20s/30s I think, before there was even magnetic tape to record music, onto film... it's the sounds of berlin (i think) edited and cut apart. very interesting. --- the humble abbott arthur purvis set his hand hereto
