TitleAlien Bog/Beautiful Soop
DescriptionLabel: Pogus Productions NY USA
The release of Alien Bog (1967 - 33:15) and Beautiful Soop
(1966 - 27:49) on this remarkable historical compact disc
from Pogus Productions provides a valuable resource for
composers and scholars searching for the roots of
American electroacoustic creativity. For Alien Bog, Oliveros
used the Buchla to synthetically evoke and amplify the
natural sonic ambience of a frog pond existing outside the
window of the original Mills College studios. Beautiful Soop,
an interesting mix of synthesized sounds and quotes from
Lewis Carroll poetry and other sources, provides an
excellent example of the composer's fascination and
effective experimentation with tape delay techniques and the
careful placing of musical information within the stereo
space. Jewel Case
