The pop-star born in Thuringia in year 1685 (one of the first pop-stars in history in fact) has many fans in the southern hemisphere too, and Benedict is evidently one of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn truth, Benedict is keen to point out that this album is actually a tribute to Wendy Carlos and her \"Switched-on Bach\" (1968), one of the first Bach-exploitation albums ever released and certainly one of the most brilliant and beloved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e\"It is 50 years since Wendy Carlos released \"Switched-On Bach\" (October 1968). Electronic music existed before Switched-On but suddenly it hit the general consciousness as well as crossing the Rock\/Pop\/Classical divide. This is the record that launched a thousand careers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy record doesn't attempt to break any new ground, merely to give myself the opportunity to explore what Wendy did as well as the totally amazing music of Bach - the greatest composer ever. This makes my record another in a long line of what I call \"Moog Does...\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy record is \"Plugged-In\" because now the instruments are all Plug-Ins: VST, Racks Extensions... Software with not a dusty knob in sight.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNotes all by J.S. Bach. Played by unknown people who put MIDI Files on the internet. Arranged by me (with a few stray notes moved or added by me to suit my arrangements). Sounds created by me 'in the mix', but totally with a feel for what Wendy Carlos did in1968.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Night Channels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49525414625507,"sku":"NC-BAUBLE-HDK1","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/3098\/3752\/files\/wendy_carlos.jpg?v=1786555498","url":"https:\/\/nightchannels.com\/products\/circe-curio-sex-magick-candle-single-copy","provider":"Night Channels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
