Ron Geesin – Basic Maths – LP

Truly hot from the press of Trunk Records, “Basic Maths” a riotous romp through my 1980-81 music and associated noises for Central Television’s 28-part educational TV Series: featuring Oberheim 8-voice synthesiser, piano, banjo, guitars, mouthorgan, percussion, voice – and other older analogue synthesisers including the legendary Synthi. Jonny Trunk is rather keen on this one!

All this material has been restructured to expose musical lines not much detected in the original mono mixes. As was, and still is, common in the film and TV Media, the sound was the last sensory experience to complete the programmes. I had little time to consider my reactions to the films, so drew on subconciously-stored experience to make something appropriate. The multiferously contrasting moods are now exposed in glowing stereophonic vibrancy.
