Autechre Sparkle Motion - One Voice In The Cosmic Fugue

[six]

Been wanting to do this one for a loooong time. With the release of Oversteps, Fluorescent Grey's latest mix, and our countless discussions on WATMM about 70s film soundtracks, my interest in proggy synth stuff is at an all time high. Much of this comes from the 70s and early 80s, when a hell of a lot of experimention was being done with synths. Some of this sounds like it could have been released this year. This is my dedication to that music and the vast cosmos unknown. Enjoy!

Yeah, it's not the normal Halloween theme. Kind of a weird one for Carpenter's standards.

You are a fucking genius mate - this is inspired!

 

I nearly peed my pants when I heard Tower Music from the Tron soundtrack

 

Completely brilliant mix - thank you

 

Now to dig out my soundtracks - why I never thought to mix them before I'll never know...

[Guest HWNDarkside]

And Logan's Run, and The Thing!

 

Question though - where did you get the John Carpenter soundtrack from? I've only got the Morricone version.

[six]

Thanks man, glad you like it! Yeah a lot of soundtrack music on this one, has a bit of a 70s dystopia movie feel to it. The John Carpenter track plays during the end credits of the movie but I believe you're right that it didn't make it onto the Ennio Morricone OST, which is probably my favorite soundtrack of all time. I think I got it off some compilation of John Carpenter's best work.

I liked that wonkyshit-mix you uploaded before so i'm downloading this now .. thanks ..

[awepittance]

glad other people here have an appreciation of electronic music pre 1980 apart from Kraftwerk

great job on the mix Six, i thoroughly enjoyed it

[Guest the anonymous forumite]

Mindblowing mix, Sir. Who's playing at 21.03 ?

[six]

Thanks guys! The whole segment from 19 - 26 mins is Tangerine Dream - Rubycon II, which was way ahead of its time for 1975 and is a whopping 17 minute epic in total. Def check out Rubycon, it's an awesome album.

Looks like an amazing mix, will check soon....
