Christian Marclay Mini documentary: Marclay discusses his interest in unwanted sound, his use of turntables, early examples of his art and more recent pieces too.

Christian Marclay (born 1955) is an American visual artist and composer based in New York. Marclay's work explores connections between sound, noise, photography, video and film. A pioneer of using gramophone records and turntables as musical instruments to create sound collage, Marclay is, in the words of critic Thom Jurek, perhaps the "unwitting inventor of turntablism." His own use of turntables and records, beginning in the mid-1970s, was developed independently of but roughly parallel to hip hop's use of the instrument.

Pierre Schaeffer : Etude aux chemins de fer

The first piece of "musique concrete," composed by Pierre Schaeffer in 1948 out of sounds produced by trains.

For Étude aux chemins de fer Schaeffer built the first sampler. "He recorded a number of various sounds produced by trains and pressed them onto records, some in "closed grooves" such that the sound would loop indefinitely. Record players were arranged such that they could be triggered by different switches or keys. The composer (or performer), then could "play" the various sounds by pressing keys in the desired pattern (+ holding for the desired length of time, adjusting speed, etc.). The principles were twofold: improvisation and theme and variations. The former was a necessity in this uncharted musical territory, while the latter was one of the old standbys of Western music, but one sufficiently abstract that it could be applied in the new domain."

Otomo Yoshihide / ENSEMBLES - "hyper wr player" 2008 - YCAM, Yamaguchi

"hyper wr player - without records hi-fi version - " Otomo Yoshihide What is the sound that a record player has in itself? Adopting today’s state-of-the-art technologies to the full, this work “without record player” is based on the concept of “without records,” which uses only old portable record players and has been evolved through stages. This hyper-version performs deconstruction and reconstruction in the current perspective, taking away the recorded media (records) of a record player, the origin of recording media.
