William basinski disintegration loops vinyl box set.

The four volumes of william basinski s ambient masterpiece have been gathered into a gorgeous and impressive 9xlp 5xcd box set including two previously unreleased live performances. This set also includes all of the remastered recordings on 5 cds the rare 63 minute the disintegration loops film on dvd and a 144 page full color coffee table book featuring rare photos taken during the making of the disintegration. I first came across the name william basinski and his disintegration loops a couple of years ago but only very recently bought this box set having heard the loops many times and struggling to understand whether this is divine music or pretentious nonsense masquerading as profound art. The recordings consist of tape loops that gradually deteriorated each time they passed the tape head the unexpected result of basinski s attempt to transfer his earlier recordings to digital format.

The disintegration loops is a series of four albums by american avant garde composer william basinski released in 2002 and 2003. Wow so this really is something i m sure you are familiar with william basinski s by now legendary the disintegration loops but have you experienced it five cds one dvd and a 150 page book in a super fancy boxset courtesy of temporary residence yeah just what i thought. All tracks are remastered from the original recordings and pressed onto 100 virgin vinyl for the first time.
