Anthologies of Noise & Electronic Music - Sub Rosa

V/A - Anthologies of Noise & Electronic Music | Sub Rosa | CD Series

"This collection explores in depth the historical bases of electronic music and analyzes the slow emergence of noise, from the 1910s to now. A series of 2-CD/3-LP sets culling material from the most celebrated composers down to the most obscure artists" Sub Rosa. These releases by Sub Rosa really are unique in that they capture the history of Electronic music from it's earliest protagonists, the Dadaists, John Cage, Nam June Paik, Captain Beefheart, William Burroughs (to name but a few) to the contempories such as Merzbow, Sutcliffe Jugend, Sonic Youth, Masonna, SPK etc., with perhaps notable exceptions. All the Anthologies (currently 6) are packaged in gatefold Cd's or Lp's with booklets, biographies or general notes on each artist (2CD digipacks + big 50-page booklets featuring rare and unreleased tracks). I highly recommend that you add these essential releases to your collection!
