Other Music, USA-California



Prime Numbers. 1980 Nth Degree
Incidents Out of Context. 1983 Flying Fish

Other Music were a band from Marin County north of San Francisco who managed to put out two albums before splintering. To date I haven't heard their debut Prime Numbers but Incidents Out of Context is a fine example of World Fusion and experimental music. A mix of systems electronic music, Asian ethnic scales/instruments, unusual tuned percussion, classical chamber music structures and.... fuzz guitar. This latter element just slays me every time, especially in this context (so to speak). One of a kind, that's for sure.

Priority: 3
