Wild Planet

Playing hairdryers and hoovers (©Frank Zappa), using a cement mixer for a rhythm (©Faust) or bringing the road drill on stage to destroy concrete blocks (©Einsturzende Neubautan) all stems from the musique concrete movement, a sound that was captured by former RAF pilot Desmond Leslie on his ‘Music Of The Future’ which was recorded in 1960. Here, flys are destroyed, planets are visited, there are sacrifices in the year 5000 BC and the album ends with the esoteric tone poem called ‘Death Of Satan’. Amazingly, the album is totally approachable and absolutely engaging, as Leslie concludes on the cover: “My MUSIQUE CONCRETE is meant to be enjoyed.”<br>
