Individual LP from the Electroacoustic Works boxset.
One of the milestones of electroacoustic music: Iannis Xenakis's mind-blowing, 54-minutes oeuvre Persepolis.
Persepolis is the longest electroacoustic composition by Iannis Xenakis.
Commissioned by the Persian Shah, the piece was part of a multimedia performance -- Xenakis's so-called "polytopes" -- which premiered in 1971 in Shiraz-Persepolis (Iran) as a performance including light-tracks, laser beams, groups of children walking around with torches, and 59 loudspeakers to project the music in an open-air situation.
Mixed from the original master 8-track tapes by Martin Wurmnest.
Mastered and cut by Rashad Becker at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin.
