Radiodeo: Sing-a-long Singles!

Over the mountain

  take me across the sky

Something in my vision

  something deep inside

Where did I wander?

  Where do you think I wandered to?

I've seen life's magic

  astral plane I travel through

*I heard them tell me

  that this land of dreams was now.

I told them I had ridden shooting stars--

  I said I'd show them how.

Over and over

  always tried to get away,

living in a daydream

  only place I had to stay.

Fever of a breakout

  burning in me miles wide

People around me

  talking to the walls inside.

*

**Don't need no astrology

  It's inside of you and me.

You don't need a ticket to ride with me--

  I'm free.

Over and under

  in between the ups and downs

My mind's carpet

  magic ride goes round and round.

Over the mountain

  kissing silver inlaid clouds

watching my body

  disappear into the crowd

Grandpappies of Noise

Luigi Russolo (1883-1947)
Italian Futurist who wrote the manifesto The Art of Noises in 1913,
in which he reasoned that modern men would have a greater appreciation for complex sounds as a direct result of the Industrial Revolution.
His performances of "noise concerts," employing noise-generating machines and a noise orchestra, were met with general disapproval and riotous violence, as he had himself predicted.

All of his noise machines were destroyed in WWII
during the bombings on Paris.

Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995)
An early developer of Musique Concrete--which did not limit music to sounds created by voice or instrument, nor "musical" elements of harmony, melody, rhythm or meter--this Frenchman pioneered early recording and sampling techniques using phonographs and turntables, and later magnetic tape and tape loops.

He briefly mentored electronic artist Jean Michel Jarre.
