Notes on recordings.

"All Around The World" is an audio document of sacred spaces with their acoustic and consciousness altering properties. It is also the creation of new ambient spaces, new realities, through audio collage, juxtaposition and cut-up techniques. It is a child of John Cage's vision of being able to tune in and hear the music that is going on all around you by placing musical value on common sounds and elements of noise. Music that exists outside the structure of chords, scales and orthodox harmonic patterns. A new way of hearing music may occur for the attentive listener in much the same way that Edgard Varese broadened the way people heard music by introducing sirens and other found objects of noise into symphonic composition.

All recordings were done on location in various sites that include ambience from The King's Chamber in the Great Pyramid of Giza, Notre Dame Cathedral, Mount St. Thomas and the Theosophical Society World Headquarters in Madras, India, the Australian Outback, the subways of Paris... Every space has a subtle yet profound effect on the consciousness of anyone who enters into it. Architecture has a profound effect upon mood most noticeably in a building's acoustics. Thus temples, mosques, cathedrals and other sacred buildings were designed to elevate a person's mood and raise their consciousness. "Wake them up," to use a Sufi metaphor, and lift them out of their everyday mundane reality (sleep).
Oz Fritz

Landscape and architecture resonates with its own sound and evocation, music and ambience. These recordings represent time, space and sound reimagined. Transmission of all signals received. Relocated, reconfigured, this soundtrack reflects the environment in ways that are incorporated into the music's structure and purpose.
Bill Laswell

I love this series because it is so interesting and the first 3 stages are nice to listen to for studying. The music is sad and happy, distorted in parts but real throughout. keenan_bruce

Such a wonderful, lovingly compiled album. I started buying and listening music in a time that only a few magazines provided info about mainly western music.This is such an cultural enrichment and damn good to boot! Every home should have one. Robert Bloemkolk

Anthology Of Contemporary Music From Indonesia
by Various Artists

supported by 5 fans who also own “All around the World”

A full spectrum of unique experimental noise/music from Indonesian artists. From lowercase style minimalism to full on power electronics and noise rock instrumentation there is something for everyone here. Highly cultural and spiritual folk instrumentation and singing is blended into the mix as well. Definitely one of Unexplained Sounds Groups best compilations to date. Gwynplaine de Pétroleuse

Anthology Of Contemporary Music From Africa Continent
by Various Artists

supported by 5 fans who also own “All around the World”

The latest installment of USG's music study brings fourth a wondrously bizarre, and enigmatic amalgamation of styles and influences. The artists present here really shine with their unique and mystifying musical experimentation. From a mix of traditional African musical influences, Islamic musical practices, and some just outright otherworldly and highly imaginative compositions Anthology of contemporary music from Africa continent is another USG survey gem, and a must have compilation album.
