Recently discovered this amazing composer. She is a true old school electronic minimalist composer still using modular equipment. Music made in 1998 sounding like in the 60's. Badass
After listening to many musical genres throughout my long life, I feel I have been finally introduced to the true world of sound through Eliane Radigue. Incredibly wonderful.
A composer who dares to orchestrate the quiet. They used to say Eric Satie made "wallpaper music". I suppose this is that. It makes a lovely, non-intrusive surround. Lovely to work by.
Here's a trick I discovered: Eliane builds her drones with a very strong central theme, so when she's building layers of sound on top of that, try and stay focused on that central theme without letting your mind put the new sounds she's adding to the forefront (it's a little challenging). If you can manage that, the album might make a bit more sense as far as it's relationship to Tibetan Buddhism goes.
I listen to this like I would sit down and listen to the small persistant rain drops quietely hitting the corrugated sheet roof of the small shelter in my garden... On another level one can look at it as a form of Tai chi for the ears... Personnaly I like to listen to such pieces at different volume settings, one day I'll put the volume on 2, on another moment i'll prefer to listen to it at VERY LOUD level. (Walls of the house are on the edge of trembling I like that)
Best composer alive, in my biased opinion. Adnos II is still the pinnacle of drone transcendence, but Trilogie is almost as sublime. Her music is the aural equivalent of gazing at a slow-moving river, once you recognise the pattern you've heard, it's gone...so you kind of hear the previous pattern after the new pattern has substantially emerged, and what appears to be stasis is slow, unstoppable change. It's a lesson in listening. It shows the way overlaid resonances tease the ear and whet the mind.
Listening to this was a truly transformative experience. I had known vaguely of Eliane Radigue, but had totally forgotten her name. For some reasons I was impelled to google her this morning, while writing to another musician about the relationship between personal musical authenticity and the use of folksong. There is within Kyema an epic archetypal experience which I can recognise despite it being quite at odds with the aesthetic I have evolved in the 25 years since I was working with acousmatics myself. Discovering Eliane Radigue's work is very much the beginning of a journey for me.
Our Lady of the Drones! 'Trilogie De la Mort', inspired by Bardo Thödol, is Radigue's timeless masterpiece, here drones are not exoteric and physical but esoteric and metaphysical, here sustained tones do not serve as a convenient means for mere minimalistic experimentation but as a discipline for spiritual realization, here the tension does not suggest emotional imbalance but pious discreetness in the face of the Absolute. One of the top 10 drone ambient albums of all times.
This is such a brilliant piece. Out of all her work that I've heard, I think this is the most melodic. It goes through so many different moods, from pure peace, to wistful yearning, through a menacing storm, to a spare and empty landscape.
Beautiful music thank you so much for posting / introducing it to me. I remember walking along a canal near a nuclear reprocessing plant one night and vibrations from the machinery moved by the wind came and went in a similar way to this. Afterwards i could hear the same phasing like changes wherever i went / my ear was tuned on the look out for natural sounds similar to the ones i have loved from Tangerine Dream around Atem / Zeit era. Strange its taken me all these years to find their muse in Radigue and the others of her generation that came before them. I take my Edirol r-09hr everywhere i go looking for such sounds now.
Listening to this makes me think about: -2001's Monolith; - Gravity (the movie); - Interstellar (//); - vintage pictures about space (both artistic illustrations and photos); - Arecibo's Radiotelescope; - Voyager 2's Golden Record.
je monte dans la nef Va ! Vaissel sonore voilà donc ce qui nous attend ; emporte moi vers l'Eliane. Vers le son final...un chef d’œuvre à la portée d'oreilles.
En realidad no deberíamos de considerar esta música como antiestética o no-estética. Pienso que es lo contrario: se trata de restaurar la perceptibilidad auditiva superando las categorías musicales. Se trata de estar mas allá de la música: en la muerte de la música para recobrar la experiencia (vital) sonora y devolverle así a la música lo que ella misma ha olvidado (matado)... En este sentido, la experiencia sonora de estas piezas nos instala en el mismo limite constitutivo de nuestro ser. Sonido constitutivo como primer formador de nuestro ser (la escucha antes que el habla), la experiencia sonora antecede a la aprensión intelectual de la música entendida ya como música. Es la música la que niega el sonido, por tanto, la capacidad auditiva, la atención consciente en las vibraciones sonoras que ya no se reducen a escucha cerebral sino corporal. La trilogía de la muerte deviene trilogía de la vida, invierte la experiencia estética del placer musical, del cual se ve reducida a una experiencia estética formal muy reducida (que tapa la escucha del sonido) para restaurar la percepción sonora como experiencia total del cuerpo, que es a donde se dirige el sonido, no a su intelectualización. Primero el sonido, la vibración, después la música.
+Víctor Costas Estoy de acuerdo después de esta pieza las melodías se escuchan más ricas y complejas, parece que es por el contraste, que provoca una línea melódica llevada tan pasivamente.
I m from Italy. I don't know spanish. But I started to read with spanish accent your comment. Spontaneusly. With this sonic landscape in background. Sometimes...the content and its energy even overcomes the limits of language. Thank you for this precious sharing🙏
@@giuseppinamendola6306 Thanks so much. Five years after everthing changed. Im not the same...and that sound is so different in my ears. The river of the life is so long and noisy; we must to stop and try to capture the esence of the armonic sound.
The memory of its silk crackles beneath the windowpanes of my conversing reflection, the outline of a geometry pulsing and gnawing: at least that’s what the meaning somehow revealed itself to be. I’ll listen again and be surprised.
Eliane is a former assistant of Pierre Henry, another great composer of contemporary music, very influential (if he hadn't dvoted his life to music, we probably wouldn't have had techno music...)
+Tommaso Motteran Any legitimate music listener. Detroit techno, minimal techno, dub techno--you're missing out. It's a sign of weakness / fear when people wont approach a different style of music. It's not out of some completeness or ultimate musical knowledge; it's simply out of a lack of exposure or a feebleness"..."
Arrggh, I'm super angry about this 9 month old comment. I'm going to keep necro'ing it and throwing meaningless insults around and getting my comment deleted. Rarrrggghhh.
If you like the radio interference check out "Odd Nosdam - Clouded" It's the best short ambient song. Also, listen to NASA sounds from space, where the electromagnetic fields of the planets of our solar system are translated in to audible noise. It's natural, and remarkable.
Oh, also TH-cam search "Crickets Choir" (the 10:02 length version), it's hypnotizing. Crickets chirping slowed down to the point of where it actually sounds vaguely like a choir singing.
In particular I found a systematic interference of any external audio this makes this seem mutate, I´m using my computer while listening sound and he entered another chanel this change I do no understand why this happens but it´s great , i will continue investigating or such one this wa a side porpuse. sorry about the language its a traduction.
Le détail qui rajoute du sel: les craquements du vinyle... Cette création sonore est tout sauf futile. Démarche similaire à la musique hindoustani ou karnatique, dans la recherche de la vibration primordiale et son développement.

Did you know that ads are there because the record companies monetizes the copyrighted music on behalf of the artists. Why don't people understand this? It has been happening for years¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I love it, but I actually understand you. It is not about being "virgin", lol. I think it's just a highly divisive art. For instance, my father can't listen to this, because it reminds him of his tinnitus.
C’est chiant!!!!! C’est plat!!!! C’est vraiment pas se prendre la tête!! Pas de texte, pas de riff ni de structure... après pour une intro à la Radiohead pourquoi pas! Mais juste une intro et pas 3 plombes de ça!!
I love this...and I’m disappointed in myself for not discovering this sooner.
I gives me hope that so many people love this kind of music.

Try me, I'm not bad either !!
This music really opens the heart
Listening all day while doing writing and graphic editing, best music for quiet thoughtful activities.
A very subtle and almost contemplative soundscape, soothing to my ears and soul...
A composer who dares to orchestrate the quiet. They used to say Eric Satie made "wallpaper music". I suppose this is that. It makes a lovely, non-intrusive surround. Lovely to work by.

Ooh its a bit like those magic eye images but for the brain 😳 if that makes any sense

I can't be the only one who hears orchestral music in the right ear at 29:18? listen carefully.
you are not. it's very clear to my ears!

"a lesson in listening", very nice.
Esta música nos ofrece la maravilla de poder descubrir la magnitud del universo a partir de lo aparentemente simple.Honestidad pura.
It feels very good to hum deeply while hearing this
