Endless House compilation- brilliant fakery?

Poke [Edit] [Delete] 14:11, 7 January '11

So i ordered and received a compilation called Endless House which was accompanied by the following blurb...

'An obelisk of noise that rose rudely above the treetops of the Bialowieska Forest, the Endless House project shone for a mere six weeks in the spring of 1973. The outlandish brainchild of wealthy audiophile/maniac Jiri Kantor, its stated mission was "to become the cradle of a new European sonic community... a multimedia discotheque" that should "surprise and delight" artists and dancers alike. For all the wide-eyed optimism of its manifesto, however, the enterprise was never unknowing in its flirtation with disaster and self-destruction. The brilliant Czech may have made his millions as the midas-touched entrepreneur/taste-maker behind Paris-based magazine Otium International, but Endless House was always a vanity project as irredeemably vain as its maker...'

Seems to be some sort of elaborate and quite brilliant fakery. There's some sample son the above page. If you dig Kraftwerk, Harmonia, Cluster, Aphex Twin, early Autechre you will probqably find something to like here.....
