Robert Ashley - Foreign Experiences
Travelling in from different planets, Ashley and the world's rappers agree to aestheticise logorrhoea, shock-jockery and loose language and to keep those texts a-coming (there are 84pp in the accompanying libretto book). Two speakers and a host of ghost voices and a synthesised 'orchestra', all hovering around single tones create a hypnotic, often funny, vicious, strangely gripping linear streams of sound/speech. The nuance is all in shadows and hints and fleeting references. No one else is doing anything like this and it's fascinating to see Ashley re-emerge with such a highly evolved, unplaceable but fascinating form pitched somewhere outside opera, rap, theatre, music and bar talk.'

Robert Ashley - Yellow Man with Heart with Wings
1990 CD issue of this 1978 piece for voice and electronics. The electronics (with additional Clavinet by 'Blue' Gene Tyranny) start out shimmering and subtle, slowing building up in strange, menacing fashion. The first part is in Spanish (with Guillermo Grenier providing the voice); the second part is 'in English' (heavily processed vocals by Ashley) and quite radical -- easy to imagine this one sitting very high in a United Dairies-like universe.

Konrad Bayer - Der Sechste Sinn
"This audio document of three readings from the years 1962 to 1964 proves to be just the intensity of the lecture as a rare jewel that reminds strongly of the old ties between poetry and music. These performances also offer previously unpublished passages of a 'novel', the with his wit and his immense destructive force against the conventions of art and life can unsettle even today." (skug - Journal für Musik, Wien) (skug - Journal of Music, Vienna).

Konrad Bayer and Gerhard Rühm - Gemeinschaftsarbeiten 1957-1962
Collaboration between writer Konrad Bayer and multi-artist Gerhard Rühm, who both participated in the art movement called Wiener Gruppe. Rühm was one of the most radical members of this group, who made it his aim to bring literature to the same direct level of experience as visual art or music. Bayer was also a great experimentalist, interested in dark romanticism and surrealism, and in montage/recombining texts.
This is concrete / sound poetry with instruments like piano and harpsichord, and voices from Rühm and Inga Artmann-Weber.
