The Golden Apples of the Sun

The Golden Apples must be the only radio show where you get to hear Grails, Six Organs of Admittance and J Dilla, where the latest on Ghost Box meets strange Twin Peaks cover versions, where Ennio Morricone sends out telepathic techno-psych beats to Matmos, and the Suspiria OST gets retouched, and original Scott Walker is (naturally) untouched …

Claude Mono presents.

Prologue…Claude Mono hosts this edition of The Apples dispensing the theme for a seamless segue start from Ben Taaffe’s awesome Giant Steps guest spot special full of spiritual and spaced out jazz – cue the vital link David Axelrod – then cue Phaedra and its 1974 and the first Tangerine Dream album to feature their now classic sequencer-driven sound. The title track “Movements of a Visionary” relies on Christopher Franke’s use of the Moog analog sequencer as a substitute for a bass guitar – alright!!. From 1974 to 2012 and you didn’t even know it was John ‘Mist/Emeralds/Outer Space’ Elliott – he has  come to be considered one of the scene’s premier and most prolific sound technicians – whose Outer Space project  leaves a bold mark on electronic music with collisions of throbbing sequences and blistering free-form electronics with due respect to the Krautrock gods. The combination of intoxicating space music propels his listeners to planets way beyond this galaxy… and he just played in Perth last week for Schnitz and Kosmiche … and thats just the first 15 minutes….
