Luc Ferrari: Presque Rien Nr.1; Societé II (Avantegarde Vinyl Series) LP

$50.99

Description

Luc Ferrari’s Presque Rien No. 1 (1967–70) and Société II (1967) stand among the most radical works of the twentieth-century avant-garde. With Presque Rien No. 1 (Daybreak at the Seaside), Ferrari pioneered the use of untreated environmental recordings as complete musical material — capturing the sounds of a Croatian fishing village at dawn to create what he called a “soundscape.” Stripped of manipulation or conventional composition, it marked a decisive shift toward sonic minimalism and ecological listening, influencing generations of experimental artists.

Mastered & cut from the original analogue ¼ inch 2-track master tapes by Rainer Maillard and Sidney Claire Meyer at Emil Berliner Studios.

Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl.

Excluded from sitewide sales/discounts.
