Description:
NEW LOW PRICE!

Lock the doors and turn off the lights! It's the long-awaited new work by Wendy Carlos, Grammy-winning composer and synthesist, creator of Switched-On Bach and the electronic score to Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange.

On Tales..., Carlos explores the dark side with characteristic sonic depth and brilliance. The major piece on this CD is "Clockwork Black," about which Wendy says:
"...a musical Fantasia on themes from the Clockwork Orange filmscore. It contains a lot of unsavory business in its images and program. After all, a trip through Hell will contain sadism and things that go bump in the night."
Meticulously mastered by Wendy herself in Hi-D sound, this enhanced CD includes additional notes and other material from her website. Rediscover a pioneer in electronic sounds and modern composition.




Reviews
  • "...a musical exploration of good and evil. This is horror music, theremin-like warblings and all." - Daily Digital Opinion (February 1999)

  • "...if you think that her past work overshadows her current endeavors, spinning Tales of Heaven and Hell will change your mind. Possibly the most intensely orchestrated work she has yet to produce, this disc leaves other electronic musicians in a trail of dust..." - www.babysue.com
