(NOTE: BRAND NEW/FACTORY SEALED ITEM!) (NOTE: LIMITED VINYL EDITION!) Cacophonic presents a reissue of experimental Irish avant-garde and electroacoustic innovator Roger Doyle's Oizzo No, originally self-released in 1975. This manifesto of outsider orchestrations, teenage symphonies and cultivated concrete is Doyle's debut album. A pianist and composer, Doyle was also an improvisational jazz drummer with a penchant for experimentation that would marginalize him from traditional seats of learning in his native homeland but embrace him to the bosom of Europe's leading forward-thinking research centers for electronic and computer music. Here he would piece together two highly sought-after experimental albums before returning home to channel his multi-disciplinary work ethic into the agit-pop theatrical company Operating Theatre and play a leading role in the burgeoning Irish new wave scene as an early signing to U2's Mother Records. Oizzo No is a collection of some of Doyle's earliest works as an indomitable scholarship student of composition at the Royal Irish Academy Of Music in Dublin and then as founding member and drummer of experimental jazz rock outfit Jazz Therapy (who would later become Supply Demand & Curve). This patchwork 1975 debut draws from what was an already bulging portfolio that included academic assignments, living room compositions and soundtrack collaborations with Irish filmmakers. Originally part-recorded and subsequently aborted when the would-be label vanished without trace overnight, Oizzo No was shelved indefinitely until a scholarship at the prestigious Institute Of Sonology at the University Of Utrecht in Holland afforded Doyle not only the opportunity to partially revise his humble opus in their state-of-the-art studios (as well as those of the EMS Studios in Stockholm) but also the money to press a limited run of 500 copies and help further cement the foundations of his future status as one of Ireland's leading and most versatile contemporary composers. "A long & complicated album, ranging through a plethora of styles. It opens with "Bitter-Sweet Suite", a scampering piece played on 'special piano' which ripples & weaves, carrying it's tune along on bright, spidery energy, concluding with a childhood taunt. As with most unaccompanied piano, this has a certain isolated loneliness to it, but is nonetheless a neat little instrumental. "Ceol Sidhe" features Uilleann Pipes, Irish Har, Tin Whistle, and despite the obvious conotations suggested by this combination, reminds me more of, say TEST DEPT circa "Beating The Retreat" than CLANNAD or THE POGUES. It is a complicated little instrumental, again having an atmosphere of stark loneliness. "Oizzo No" brings VARESE to mind, with hints of people like RUNZELSTIRN & GURGELSTØCK. A very clever piece which could be described as 'smashed, scattered & reconstructed' music. It's not random - you can tell there's a sort of 'seat-of-your-pants' composition there, but it's loose & complex. Voices with thick Irish accents rise in the middle, belying the title as "I Don't Know". At times it falls into Neo Classical areas, often into more Trad Industrial music. "Obstinato" is a quite clever loop work using a stolen phrase & a short piece of soundtrack music. "Why Is Kilkenny So Good?" again has a dark, deconstructed sound to it, this one subtle & atmospheric, like a distant, dark wind blowing through stark mountainous passes while a voice recites a short dialogue. Punctuation comes in almost machine-like clatterings & batterings before returning once more to it's well-peopled atmosphere. Again this changes, sounding like a cacophony of cowbells thinned out into certain, narrow elements, becoming extemely Industrial, bringing THROBBING GRISTLE to mind. Clangorous metal sounds abound & washes of echoed, effected & treated noise grows and fades. "Two Movements For Flute And Strings" is a much more 'full' sound, thanks to the Dublin Baroque Players, it is a warm, dramatic piece which, despite the fact that it is an orchestrated piece, still has the angular, edginess, along with the more smooth, rounded edges of the strings. The second movement has a faster, more rhythmic to it, almost touching mellow Rock before realising & shying away. Some of it reminds me of RYUICHI SAKAMOTO's "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" soundtrack. "Theme From Emptigon" opens on a full, Jazz-like construction - a short, bright piece using Drums, Piano & Guitars to weave a rhythm of normality, before fading away on thick effects. "Extra Bit" has a tune hidden within it's strange & complex construction, which uses all manner of sounds, backward echoes & effects to create a Surreal Coda to the previous track." - Soft Watch. - Cacophonic presents a reissue of experimental Irish avant-garde and electroacoustic innovator Roger Doyle's Oizzo No, originally self-released in 1975. - A pianist and composer, Doyle was also an improvisational jazz drummer with a penchant for experimentation. - Doyle was also founding member and drummer of experimental jazz rock outfit Jazz Therapy (who would later become Supply Demand & Curve). - This manifesto of outsider orchestrations, teenage symphonies and cultivated concrete is Doyle's debut album.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED! We are record collectors here, too, and we pledge to package your records (or any other item) in a way in which we would like to have records/other items packaged, sent to us and received by us as well. When packaging up records that are non-factory sealed items (as is standard for many import releases) or are open "used" items for shipment, we remove the LP and inner-sleeve from the album cover and place them on the outside of the cover to protect the cover from being subjected to any potential seam-splitting during transit. When packaging up factory sealed records for shipment, we leave the item sealed, intact, as is. HOWEVER. If a customer REQUESTS that we unseal a factory sealed record to send with the LP and inner sleeve on the outside of the cover (to protect the cover from any potential seam-splitting during transit) we will do so. Please be sure to make this request of unsealing your record for shipment if that is your packaging preference. When packaging up non-factory sealed items (or factory sealed items that have been unsealed at the buyer's request) that have custom company or other manner of printed inner-sleeves, we remove the record from those printed inner sleeves (returning the printed inner sleeves back into the album cover) and place them inside brand new, generic white paper inner sleeves, which are then placed on the outside of the album cover to protect both the album cover AND the original printed inner sleeves from being subjected to any potential seam splitting during transit. We do this for all new AND used items that are in our stock. All LPs, be they new or used, are sheathed inside of new, protective plastic outer sleeves (with the exceptions of space or weight limitations that may occur with packaging your items - such exceptions will take place when they allow for a lower cost of shipping charged for your total order.) We go the extra mile to protect and preserve your items, folks! With but a few exceptions (odd size combined orders or other package configurations and considerations...)
