Episode 125 Trippy Trance Music Origins, Part 2 Playlist   Track Time Start Time Introduction –Thom Holmes 05:01 00:00 1.     Pete Namlook, “Power Supply II” from Namlook IV (1994 Fax +49-69/450464). “The music originated instinctively whilst being played live. There was no concept for the composition before, only a kaleidoscope of sounds stemming from the given instruments. The music of this CD is “dedicated” to the missing 220V power supply, the broken EMS Synthi which I dropped during the setting-up of my equipment, the SE-1 which instantly created its own sounds during the live recording and the Studio 440 with 2 faulty pads and a disk drive which had to be convinced to cooperate.” 5:00 05:16 2.     Pete Namlook, “Power Supply III” from Namlook IV (1994 Fax +49-69/450464).

This episode is a continuation of our exploration of Trance music origins. Maybe a more fitting title would be ”Pete Namlook and his Many Collaborators,” for all of this music springs from him in one way or another. We’ll hear Namlook’s collaborations with Bill Laswell, Klaus Schulze, and Tetsu Inoue.
