The History of Electronic Music in 476 Tracks (1937-2001)
Pioneering Electronic Composer Karlheinz Stockhausen Presents “Four Criteria of Electronic Music” & Other Lectures in English (1972) Hear music from his upcoming and final album, Deus Arrakis, just above. “There was still so much to write about him as a human and artist,” concludes a statement from his family, “but he probably would have said by now: nuff said!… You know what he was like: his music matters, not his person.” Or maybe it was that the two were inseparable. Schulze lived and still lives in the music he inspired, performed, and recorded. “At the end of that second private Dune journey,” he said, “I realized: Deus Arrakis became another salute to Frank Herbert and to that great gift of life in general.” It propelled him forward into his final work. Reaching the end of his own life, after a long illness, Schulze did deign to revisit a moment from his past. “If an artist cannot amaze people anymore, that’s the end.” “I hope never to get boring,” he said in 1997, and he meant it.
The list of solo albums and collaborations continues (including an all-Moog interpretation of Pink Floyd titled Dark Side of the Moog), stacking up into a must-hear list of titles for those unfamiliar with Schulze’s work. That collaboration segued into the most vital period of Schulze’s solo career, as the mid-to-late Seventies saw the release of electronic music classics like 1975’s Timewind, 1976’s Moondawn and 1978’s “X.” Schulze and his labelmates formed the Krautrock supergroup Cosmic Jokers and their eponymous debut album. You can also visit the Global Goals website for more information on groups that are working toward gender equality around the world.“His first solo release was Irrlicht in 1972,” The Guardian notes, “a composition in four parts that involved Schulze manipulating a broken organ, recordings of an orchestra and an amplifier to create a towering wall of sound.” His next album, 1973’s Cyborg, began his use of synthesizers, which continued throughout his 50-album run (including live albums and soundtracks) but never typecast him. To take action, share the film with what #FreedomForGirls means to you. "Every single person in the world has the ability to change something." "Hopefully, we can use the Global Goals to define this spirit of defiance and optimism and demanding that we all feel," Delaney says. But the only way to get there is by pressuring world leaders into action, and inspiring individuals to make a difference in their own communities. The Global Goals can create a world free of all of that injustice by 2030. So what are the girls mad about? Violence against girls (which kills a girl every five minutes), child marriage (one in four girls is affected), trafficking (71 percent of victims are female), female genital mutilation (63 million girls have undergone it), access to education (130 million girls are out of school), and HIV/AIDS (girls are twice as likely to be infected). Also, Delaney says, "I feel like the only place you can go after the Spice Girls is Beyoncé."
