Album Cover
Alan Morse Davies
It is Glorious to Make Electricity for Socialism

Album HK 2010 on At Sea Records label
Electronic (Abstract, Experimental)

Here's a collection of the best bits of my musical blog in 2009. Tracks 1, 3 and 4 are composed to some degree (although 3 is just mixing and processing three different sources), 2 and 5 are merely processed. 1 is based on a boat trip that I took from Venice to its airport, bongos replacing outboard motors. 2 is a slowed down field recording of pygmies. 3 is 2 different recordings of the same British folk song with the added spice of some backwards Indonesian folk song. 4 is a homage to an Icelandic composer, but using the storyline of a 1970s Dr. Who serial. 5 is the infamous suicide song written by Hungarian composer Rezső Seress, performed by Paul Whiteman and Johnny Hauser in 1936, I just slowed it down for added gloom.
