Le Corps Mince de Francoise - Love & Nature2011 debut from a trio of Helsinki women that has the sense of fun and energy I last felt in the CSS debut. Hopelessly obscure to nominate in the 2011 poll, but I think they'd find some fans around here:

Though never a house fan, I've always really liked that particular type of keyboard/synth sound.

I got to see Cooper perform Water Wrackets live with the movie at the indie theater in town. It was intense. He's got more film collaboration work coming up in 2012. http://vimeo.com/21068882

Ooh thanks for the heads up Mr. Farmer, I really would have loved to have seen him accompany the film.

these are all short experimental films, right? i'm interested in the divide between "score to short experimental film" and "music video" one definitely sounds fancier than the other, no?
― league of women voters, Monday, 19 December 2011 16:16 (twelve years ago) link
doesn't seem the same as the relationship between herzog and fricke, for instance (because that is what everything drifts to when i think about these things)
― league of women voters, Monday, 19 December 2011 16:17 (twelve years ago) link
Yes, you are right. Cooper has been collaborating with Olivia Wyatt on short experimental films. Some are animations. They are usually made independent of each other, as well. Like, Cooper will send Olivia some music and she'll make a film, or vice versa. I know that with Water Wrackets, Cooper composed all the music before ever seeing any film. He made it all during the big midwestern blizzard last winter, he said that music will always make him think of snow. Which is appropriate, I guess.
― Mr. Farmer, Monday, 19 December 2011 16:25 (twelve years ago) link
ok, then imo that is not a score -- a score takes into consideration what is happening with the images, and if the images haven't been seen yet, it's not a score? also wasn't water wrackets a remake of an older experimental film? maybe he saw the older one and knew it or something.
i dunno. i guess the visual element is a lovely accompaniment to the music, but in this case i don't really think about it the other way around. sort of like how watching stop motion nature videos is something that's fun to do while listening to cluster, but it's not like one was inspired by the other in any way. they're simply complementary pictures and sounds.

I don't think of it as a score, either. Water Wrackets is a remake of a Peter Greenaway film. I'm not one hundred percent sure of the creative processes that went into the making of the project or the chronology in which they unfolded. I'm not trying to put words into Cooper's mouth. Sorry!
Anyway...I love pairing music with film regardless of the intentions of either author. I wholeheartedly agree with your last comment and do stuff like that a lot. Like, I know Stan Brakhage intended for his films to be watched in a silent dark room, but they work so well with Circle (or whatever) playing at the same time!

I'm not saying it's the greatest song in the world, but it could have been on a Superchunk/Butterglory/Sammy/Sebadoh/etc. album or something pretty easily, and the video is very cute. Inspiring a lot of 90's nostalgia...

thelonious monk's alone in san francisco, while reading a biography of his (interesting note: he apparently popularizd a seventh chord where you just play the root and the seventh, creating a dissonant sound).
also, this jazz piano trio album; not a genre i'm normally into, but there's an emotional heft to this (or at least that's what i'm hearing) that drawing me to it.
