Blog : Australian Experimental Music Of Note
Australian experimental music of note
Shame File Music continues in the reissue of the seminal NMATAPES series, the 7th installment now available for download from the Shame File website.
NMATAPE 7 features some of the very early pioneers in Australian experimental music, including Percy Grainger, a controlled improvisation from Keith Humble, Ron Nagorcka, Ernie Althoff & Graeme Davis. Two tracks of particular interest are from former Teletopa and AZ Music member, Ernie Gallagher, who is working with mulitple off-centre records.
NMATAPES 1-7 are available for free downloads, complete with cover art and liner notes, from ShameFileMusic.com.
Related to the history of Experimental music, Shame File now has copies of the Five Fold Galactic Bells "Omni-Viola!" CD fo a couple of years back. Five Fold featured custom-made 1970s synthesisers salvaged from the dumpster by Robin Fox and Michael Munson when La Trobe Uni Music Dept was shut down a few years back. See the catalogue for details.
