1. Red Score in Tile
More Info:
Composed way back in 1979, 'A Red Score in Tile' eventually surfaced as a vinyl-only edition in 2003. Made up of piano, this shows Basinski's patented tape-loop technique perfectly and still stands as one of his most affecting pieces of music. If you've heard 'Melancholia' you'll likely know what I'm talking about, piano notes are transformed into tones by the slowly disintegrating tape, and the loops become motifs all of their own. The beauty of Basinski's work is in it's patience, and this early piece is a testament to that overwhelming skill, a skill that few others possess.
