I suddenly am realizing that 90% of my own synthesizer technique is derived from Terry Riley's pranks and antics, his Dada confluence of variegated repetition, melodic meandering, and "sound for sound's sake", as evidenced here in this masterpiece "Aleph Part 2", and reaching some wobbly apex in "Music for the Gift" which is about 150 years ahead of its time. Along with Morton Subotnick, John Cage, Alvin Curran, Luc Ferrari, Richie Hawtin, a colossal experimentalist genius, this Terry Riley. Thanks for uploading this radiant gem.
I've seen a Terry Riley interview on UA-cam that I think you'd really like. He dives pretty deep on how his music develops. You could find it but it might take some searching (or maybe not)
I enjoy hearing the composers you listed, but I’ve always found Terry Riley’s music to be much more accessible experimentation. LaMonte Young, Miles and Mingus are all in there, too.
Information to add to the video description above: in which year this recording was released, what instrument(s) he used, and what tuning system he uses for this piece.
Surprised Riley hasn't done more in more exotic JI scales; seems mostly 5limit as far as I can tell***; to be fair this worked so well on my favourite The harp of new Albion but this has 7/11 limit intervals and is more out there tuning wise although might prefer part I ***Actually Shri Camel & Descending Moonshire has a some 7 limit intervals but pretty sure this is the first time he's gone higher to a couple of 11 limit and 21/16 I don't know about the JI on the 10 voices but that recordings a bit cringey imo
*Any recommended artists like this? Love the supposed "Minimalism" genre...like Steve Reich...with piano, synth keyboard, xylophone, organ etc. Thanks!
@@kraiggrady steel is nice and sour... I just added it to my copy of LogicPro... it occurs to me that with that tuning I'm like an infant savant playing with a hand grenade.

Terry playing weird keyboards agrees with my brain.
Calms the disruption and chaos in my brain .

Beautiful music
I haven't heard this one before. I really like Terry Riley and this piece is off to a good start.
good comment
Sublime

@@davidkeith571 Thanks, for I am on a binge of watching composers explain their aesthetics. Ferneyhough, Xenakis, Cage, etc. Had not thought of this!
@@MrMusicbyMartin Yes, you are correct. Terry Riley is much more accessible.
Agreed, listen to his older work!
and his most recent! Archangels, the Sands!!!!all of it, what a Juggernaut ❤🎉
Wonderful
Listen with joy and contemplation.

music in the key of liquid metal ?

Check out Tony Conrad, La Monte Young, Charlemagne Palestine, musicandthemindofthe.world/.
Also James Tenney, whom I love quite a lot.
And Julius Eastman.
Pauline Oliveros
what is the name of instrument he is using anyone?
Which tuning is this in?
It is supposedly an 11 limit tuning of Lou Harrison's that he used on his steel guitar.
Could it be this one? en.xen.wiki/w/steel
@@Kaiveran yeah that's it but Bill Alves listd 33/32 where that has 28/27 as it is elsewhere and I think that it's likely 28/27
