The Apples In Stereo - Fun Trick Noisemaker (Full Album)
Silver Apples are an American psychedelic electronic music duo from New York, composed of Simeon Coxe III, who performs as Simeon, on a primitive synthesizer of his own devising (also named The Simeon), and until his death in 2005, drummer Danny Taylor. The group was active between 1967 and 1969, before reforming in the mid 1990s. They were one of the first groups to employ electronic music techniques extensively within a rock idiom, and their minimalistic style, with its pulsing, driving beat and frequently discordant modality, anticipated not only the experimental electronic music and krautrock of the 1970s, but also underground dance music and indie rock of the 1990s.
The group grew out of a traditional rock band called The Overland Stage Electric Band, working regularly in the East Village. Simeon was the singer, but began to incorporate a 1940s vintage audio oscillator into the show, which alienated the other band members to the extent that the group was eventually reduced to the duo of Simeon and Taylor, at which point they renamed themselves The Silver Apples, after the William Butler Yeats poem The Song of the Wandering Aengus. The arsenal of oscillators eventually grew (according to their first LP liner notes) to include "nine audio oscillators piled on top of each other and eighty-six manual controls to control lead, rhythm and bass pulses with hands, feet and elbows". Simeon devised a system of telegraph keys and pedals to control tonality and chord changes, and reportedly never learned to play traditional piano-styled keyboards or synthesizers.
Morton Subotnick (born April 14, 1933, in Los Angeles, California) is an American composer of electronic music, best known for his Silver Apples of the Moon, the first electronic work commissioned by a record company, Nonesuch. He was one of the founding members of California Institute of the Arts where he taught for many years.
Subotnick has worked extensively with interactive electronics and multi-media, co-founding the San Francisco Tape Music Center with Ramon Sender, and often collaborating with his wife Joan La Barbara. Morton Subotnick is one of the pioneers in the development of electronic music and multi-media performance and an innovator in works involving instruments and other media, including interactive computer music systems. Most of his music calls for a computer part, or live electronic processing; his oeuvre utilizes many of the important technological breakthroughs in the history of the genre.
Subotnick graduated from the University of Denver. In the early 60s, Subotnick taught at Mills College and with Ramon Sender, co-founded the San Francisco Tape Center. During this period he collaborated with Anna Halprin in two works (the 3 legged stool and Parades and Changes) and was music director of the Actors Workshop. It was also during this period that Subotnick worked with Buchla on what may have been the first analog synthesizer.
Broken radio
Ending of the world
April showers down
On a rusty English Town
Never can a man be satisfied scratching in the dark
Never can a man be pacified with an arrow in his heart
Can you work out what it is?
The life we were born to live
Yea, what you get is what you give
In the life we were born to live
Wake up of you daze
What will you find there?
Sixty million lives
Well I've got something to say to you
Been holding it a long long time
One thing that I've got to do
Is talk to you across the line.
You can stop playing games with me
I can see right through your mask
You might as well answer me
Be real, that's all I ask.
I know that you are there
I can feel you are there
You're not fooling me, no!
(2nd �not fooling me�)
I'm gonna stay here all night
I'm not gonna move
Well, I'm gonna stay here all night
Until you answer the phone
Are you are you, here with me upon this misty mountain?
Gold is dripping from your hair as pearls fall in a fountain.
Truth is streaming from your eyes, silver strands of smiles.
Are you are you, here with me and did you count the miles?
Will you, will you, stay with me upon this heaven's bed?
All that you may ask of me need never to be said.
Love dances through my heart and weaves its way to find.
If you will, if you will, stay with me
A pox on you you love and you run.
A pox on you you spoil all my fun.
A pox on you you didn't say goodbye.
A pox on you you didn't even cry.
You wouldn't let my head
You wouldn't let my head
Get into yours
Oh- into yours oh- into yours.
A pox on you you were so nearsighted
A pox on you you got me too excited
A pox on you you were so carefree
A pox on you i was so damn free
Before i let you get into me
And you left my love just lyin in the mud
Oh- lyin in the mud
Oh yeah
Mellow is the yellow sun
Waving sunbeams in the air
Weaving golden spells that run
Magic fingers through my hair
Green the sea that unfolds waves
Salty carpets flung on land
Foamy fingers seek out caves
Where lovers lie upon the sand
Red the lips from which I sup
Rubies from the fleshy bowl
Fingers reach inside to cup
Seagreen serenades awaken me to dream
And turn the world to ripe.
Smoldering charades of smoky verity
And turn the world to ripe.
Things are what they seem to players of the pipe
Who whistle gentle melodies and turn the world to ripe.
I have known love and love has won.
I burned my fingers on the sun.
I have known love and love has won.
I burned my fingers on the sun.
I've been imprisoned on the moon.
I've been imprisoned on the moon.
I have known love and love has won.
I have learned what truth denies.
I drank the teardrops from her eyes.
I have learned what truth denies.
I drank the teardrops from her eyes.
I surrendered much too soon.
I surrendered much too soon.
I have learned what truth denies
I never heard the warning voice.
I never knew I had a choice.
I never heard the warning voice.
I never knew I had a choice.
Though I never wanted to return.
I never wanted to return
I never heard the warning voice
But I have sailed upon the boat
That flew when there was room to float.
But I have sailed upon the boat
That flew when there was room to float.
And I drank out of the magic urn.
And I drank out of the magic urn.
But I have sailed upon the boat
And I have slept inside the shade
Encircled by the love we made.
And I have slept inside the shade
Encircled by the love we made.
And I have kissed the face of dreams.
And I have kissed the face of dreams.
I have slept inside the shade
And I have ridden on the glow
That warms the sky with a rainbow.
And I have ridden on the glow
That warms the sky with a rainbow.
And I have waded in its golden streams.
And I have waded in its golden streams.
And I have ridden on the glow
And I have danced between the stars
With music sung by sweet guitars.
And I have danced between the stars
With music sung by sweet guitars.
I've done some things that can't be done.
I've done some things that can't be done
And I have danced between the stars
And I have smiled inside the storm
Reaching higher to keep warm.
And I have smiled inside the storm
Reaching higher to keep warm
I've known love and love has won.
I have smiled inside the storm
Oceans full of bounty
That flows within their bodies.
Quiet but mighty rivers
Ride the fields of tomorrow.
It's the tears that turn to years.
It's the tears that turn to years.
Powerful things are bursting
With energy for the millions.
Night more than darkness
Will course for the boaters
It's the tears that turn to years.
It's the tears that turn to years.
Oceans full of bounty
That flows within their bodies.
Quiet but mighty rivers
Ride the fields of tomorrow.
It's the tears that turn to years.
It's our tears that turn the years.
Imaginary rangers
Working for the strangers.
Marriage for your daughters.
Boats upon your waters.
You and I Could walk together You and I Could talk together
You and I Could have each other
You and I Could touch each other
But we don't have time for the little things.
No, there just ain't room for the little things, why?
You and I Could fly together
You and I Could hide together
You and I Could see each other
You and I Could love each other
But we don't have time for the little things.
No, we don't have time for the little things, because
Life is full of important things.
Life is full of necessary things.
Life is full of big machines
And there ain't no room for the little things.
Whirly-bird unzip my mind
So nuts and bolts spill out with
Twisted wires and shattered bulbs and
Bits of glass emotion copper cures.
The jangled snarl of every day
Unwound and fixed upon the board
Where parts and wholes together lash
Component dreams and slabs of light
All fused within the silver globe
That swirls on top of my whirly-bird.
Unzip my mind so nuts and bolts
Spill out with twisted wires
Shattered bulbs and bits of glass
Emotion copper cures
The jangled snarl of every day
Unwound.
And fused atop the globe is my
Oscillations, oscillations
Electronic evocations of sound's reality
Spinning, magnetic fluctuations, waves of wave configurations
That dance between the poles off sound and bind my world to soul.
I walk the streets of moment. Head down to the ground.
Cars are stars remotely far. My only world is sound.
Passersby are worlds that fly. Far from the dance of time.
Time whirls round from pole to pole and swirls within the sound... of
Oscillations, oscillations
Sail over distant waters till you reach the honeyed shore
Walk on through purple flowers. Breathe the golden fragrance.
You have reached the final island where dreams light up the daytime.
You are at the end of journey, all is peace.
Wine trickles down from mountains, crimson streamers floating.
Sweet meats hang from bushes and ripely cry for plucking.
Maidens gather flowers and feed you with soft fingers.
Hours are a song that never ends. Hours are a songt that never ends.
You can see love waiting inside the velvet cave.
She calls you from the meadow. Her eyes are brightly shining.
Her breasts are fruits she offers, so you leave the fields behind you.
To follow promises she will fulfill. She will fulfill.
In the cave there's no tomorrow, nor any yesterday.
Just the hammer of her heartbeat as she draws you down beside her.
And you sink down on the pillow of her body hotly loving.
And you pray you'll never waken to the day.
And you pray you'll never waken to the day.
Never.
Never.
In the house made of the dawn
In the house made of the evening twilight
In the house made of the dark cloud
Where the zig-zag lightning stands high on top
Where the he-rain stands high on top
O, male divinity
With your moccasins of dark cloud, come to us!
With your leggings of dark cloud, come to us!
With your shirt of dark cloud, come to us!
With your head-dress of dark cloud, come to us!
With the zig-zag lightning flung over your head, come to us, soaring!
With the rainbow flung over your head, come to us, soaring!
With the zig-zag lightning flung high on the ends of your wings, come to us, soaring!
With the rainbow hanging high on the ends of your wings, come to us, soaring!
I have made your sacrifice,
I have prepared a smoke for you.
My feet restore for me,
My legs restore for me,
My body restore for me,
My mind restore for me,
My voice restore for me.
Today take away your spell from me,
Today take away your spell from me.
Far off from me it is taken!
Far off from me you have done it!
Happily my interior becomes cool,
Happily my eyes regain their power,
Happily my head becomes cool,
Happily my legs regain their power,
Happily I hear again!
Happily the spell is taken off
Happily may I walk
In beauty, I can walk
In beauty, I can walk
In beauty, it is finished
It was very late last night
I sat at the radio
Dialing from left to right
Why I do not know
I heard a man in a voice low
And sweet with circumspection
Say innocent listener don't you know
The flame is its own reflection
The flame is its own reflection
He turned me on off I turned him
We tuned out all direction
I sat alone my head aswim
The flame is its own reflection!
The flame is its own reflection!
The universe is nought but sound
Sound is its own perfection
Mind is the only truth I've found
The flame is its own reflection!
The flame is its own reflection!
I sat alone my head aswim
The flame is its own reflection!
Mind is the only truth I've found
The flame is its own reflection!
Mind is the only truth I've found
The flame is its own reflection!
The earth becomes gold
And gold earth
A promise inhaled
With the breath of our birth
We chase the dragon
Trip the lights
Burning our eyes
On marvelous sights
We are there (once awake)
Once asleep (never more)
Can we open the door
And in the end
We kiss the ones
Sleeping next to us
With the lips of a snake
Heart full of Hell
Fearing that they would wake
So fragile they could break
The silver apples of our truth
Green and gold of bygone youth
Haunting us each day to
Return anew
And day by day the thing inside
Grows and devours us alive
Just as sure as we will die
