Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 18 2002, 17:40 Tubularbills: didn't Walter (or Wendy) Carlos already do music for the (film rendition of) ACO? Of course, if Mike started from the book, the result may be likely to turn out completely different from Mr (or Ms) Carlos' work. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 19 2002, 18:46 Tubularbills, again: I was just jokin'.  Walter (or Wendy) Carlos did the soudtrack for the entire movie "A clockwork orange" by Stanley Kubrick, but, unfortunately, only some of his tracks went into the commonly available "Music from the motion picture" CD. Carlos, then, issued the complete soundtrack at his (or her) own expense, and now it is out of print.   -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

olracUK Group: Members Posts: 1683 Joined: June 2003 Posted: June 16 2004, 16:25 A fantastic book (well I think it is) that I read most summers is "Drowned World" by J G Ballard. There are a lot of references to sounds, and the book is incredibly atmoshperic - not much plot in other words. If Mike wants to get ideas or inspiration for his next album, I'd recommend he reads it. I would also add "Vermillion Sands" by the same author, as many of the stories involve music and/or difficult artistes! But Trevor Horn got there first. -------------- The answer is 42 - but what is the question? Back to top

It's about some mighty powerful bells. -------------- "In the land of the Dacotahs, Where the Falls of Minnehaha Flash and gleam among the oak-trees, Laugh and leap into the valley." - Song of Hiawatha Back to top
