Re: [motm] classic synth records

2006-01-24 by Richard Brewster

Speaking of Walter Carlos, I rented A Clockwork Orange (1971) last 
week.  Fantastic soundtrack of classical music a la Moog.  There is a 
scene where Alex is getting beaten up by his old droogies, now cops, and 
every hit of the nightstick is accompanied by an incredible crashing 
sound.  All I could imagine was a reverb tank being drop kicked.  So add 
A Clockwork Orange soundtrack to your classic recordings list.
