about

Terry Riley’s <In C>, composed in 1964, is by all means one of the most important compositions in contemporary music and minimalism music.

<In C> is made of 53 short musical “phrases”, which can be played by any number of musicians using any instruments. Musicians have to play the 53 phrases in order, while the number of times each phrase is played is determined by the discretion of the musicians. To keep musicians in sync, a repeated note C in eighth note is played regularly, forming The PULSE of the whole piece.

While the full version of <In C> had already been played by a countless number of ensembles, Enor D had chosen to conduct anatomy to the masterpiece, emphasizing the simplicity side of work. Instead of playing the 53 phrases like what other artists did, the PULSE of the work had been extracted, highlighted, and played as a solo.

<In C: Pulse Solo>, by Enor D, is the solo work of the PULSE, played by a synth, with repeating C notes. While the original work of <In C> emphasizes “Less is More” using only 53 phrases to construct complicated work, <In C: Pulse Solo> glorifies the virtue of “Less is Less”. The backbone (i.e. the PULSE) had been put under the spotlight, like the role of the guitar wall of MBV, or the backdrop of the drawings of the Les Fauves school, forming a monotonic, hypnotic and bleak journey, testing the listener’s acceptability of sound and music, at the same time experimenting how a well-known masterpiece can be decomposed, reconstructed, then having new findings unearthed and having new meaning endowed to the original work under a new perspective.
