Other Worlds

“I would say Oist music is mostly rooted in Sun Ra's music. His music was a very particular mix of american classic jazz with ritual improvisation, traditional influences and avant-garde sounds, a strange type of futurist Exotica. Oist music has also a ritual function. It is rooted in american popular culture, there's a lot americana in it, but it is mainly improvised and the vocal part of it is very specific. I love Pygmy music, for an example: it is maybe my favourite music. I don't understand why people are always singing the same way.”

Jim Shaw in discussion with the author about A Tone, Meant for Your Sins, a musical performance soon in Turin on the occasion of "Blinding the Ears"

Other worlds:

Sun Ra, from Lanquidity, There Are Other Worlds (They Have Not Told You Of) (1978)
