still not that much into the music (maybe because I missed them the first time around?), but this short (15:30) documentary is incredibly affecting, even if you have no prior interest in their music… I just like sometimes watching good documentaries about interesting people… I don’t want to compare this to grey gardens because it’s obviously not at all that, just that some parts are “affecting” in much the same way… or at least in that their art is their lives, lived completely on their own terms… the music simply issues from this, perhaps this is what is so inspiring to me.

Warmly recommended :
« Vagabunden Karawane » (Werner Penzel - 1979) - Krautrock group Embryo makes a musical trip by bus through Iran, Afghanistan and India during 1979.

I saw this yesterday, and I must say that it completely blew me away. Highly recommend. If you haven’t heard the album, check it out. And then catch this film while it’s still in theaters.

Cool (but long) documentary on the budding German techno scene in the 80s and the impact it had on not only techno but electronic music

87 years! Not so much a documentary as a short piece about her, but still great to see, and how enthusiastic Eliane is still.

(NB: in French)

the luke fowler doc on martin bartlett is really lovely. https://lux.org.uk/work/025140-electro-pythagoras-a-portrait-of-martin-bartlett

fowler is doing consistently engaging stuff at the intersection of experimental/electronic music and film (he also did a film about sue tompkins creative process and his most recent film features environmental recordings by toshiya tsunoda)

I’d love to see the one on Sue Tompkins … legend

thanks for that. martin bartlett was so special and so under-recognized.

i have a lot of tape and film from the bartlett / buchla 400 era that desperately needs archival attention.

An article and some videos about Bamanya Brian and his Afrorack: https://cdm.link/2020/01/afrorack-first-african-modular/ (as he uses the Beatstep Pro Arturia of course does not hesitate to turn that into a marketing video):
