[R]ecyclopedia [R]emix

Let me begin with a warning: this mix is quite unlike the previous ones! Though there are quite a lot 'ambient moments' to enjoy, it cannot be qualified as 'ambient music mix' because it contains a lot of other musical elements too. This mix was created especially for Frans Friederich - a dutch musician currently working on a megalomaniac project he started in 1997: Recyclopedia. One single full CD for each letter in the alphabet. 26 CD's recycling and rewriting musical history associatively...! Frans Friederich's musical history shows a variety of styles: he played in jazz-, ska-, and big-bands, but also in experimental acts like Dull Schicksal and Trespassers W.  This musical diversity is also heard on the Recyclopedia albums: it's a musical roller coaster ride with Friederich himself joining the musical extremes in his own personal style. In 2009, Friederich completed the "Recyclopedia Q" album - which contains beautiful ambient music created together with soundscape artist Robert Kroos.  (So, by now, about 65% of this project is finished - with this average output the entire Recyclopedia will be completed around 2017!) When I started this Recyclopedia mix, I originally wanted to focus on the many ambient music pieces throughout the series, creating an ambient mix and leaving out all other music. But the nature of the project decided otherwise. --- originally published on Ambientblog --- RECYCLOPEDIA REMIX PLAYLIST: 00:00 - All Heavens 3 (H-3)00:10 - Gootsteen #2 (G-2)00:36 - Golven #2 (G-7)01:22 - Drie Bellen (E-7)01:39 - All Heavens 3 (H-3)02:07 - Manifestations of the Mind (M-4)03:48 - Initiation (I-2)05:48 - Strijd (E-8)05:51 - Kadans (K-1)07:14 - De Vlucht - Ontberingen (C-5)09:35 - Kangaroe (K-2)09:52 - Golven #3 (G-8)11:06 - Psalms - Promised Land (P-9)12:48 - Onze wens is (C-3)13:32 - Live - LaRue (L-13)14:11 - Vaar-wel (E-14)14:32 - Part 15 (A-15)16:12 - Dharamsala (D-7)18:04 - Unmanifested (Q-1)19:11 - In Memoriam (I-6)20:18 - The Synodic Moon (Q-3)21:32 - Desolation/Duchamp (D-3)22:18 - The Synodic Moon (Q-3)24:11 - Peace, Pt. 1 (P-5)26:43 - F für Friede (F-11)30:36 - Karma (K-3)35:05 - Uitstrooing (E-9)35:12 - The Origin that is also You (Q-8)36:44 - Sepia Coloured Memories (Q-4)38:11 - Royal Star Bazoonya (C-20)38:16 - Deserts (D-4)42:22 - Peace (Friederich Remixed) (P-7)47:33 - Gedrup (G-10)48:23 - Gasten (G-9)48:58 - Motions (M-1)49:34  - Give me a Sign (Q-2)50:32 - Boot (B-1)51:04 - The Morning Star of Gemini (Q-9)51:10 - Gootsteen #2 (G-2)52:34 - Klaagzang (E-5)53:39 - Mankind (M-2)55:25 - The Cosmos and Beyond (Q-11)57:18 - Nee Het Zijn Niet Louter Woorden (C-11)57:00 - All Heavens 3 (H-3) Music:
