Based first in Dallas and later in Hunt's home outside the rural town of Canton, Texas, Irida presented the innovative and daring experiments-into aleatoric methods, environmental acoustics, improvisation, homemade technologies, and more-pursued by Hunt and his select collaborators, primarily working in or near Texas between 1979 and 1986. Irida's brief and compact output-seven non-sequentially numbered LPs released in unknown quantities-shared work by artists whose practices often challenged the limitations of vinyl recording. Hunt called the label a \"vanity project\" and frequently talked of a tax loophole he could claim if it all went belly up, but in it's short lifespan Irida captured a tremendous period of creative experimentation by the artist and his friends and collaborators.This boxed set gathers Irida's complete discography for the first time. These records include early attempts by Hunt to record his generative and highly permutable scores and performances on vinyl in Cantegral Segment(s) 16.17.18.19. \/ Transform (Stream) \/ Transphalba \/ Volta (Kernel), as well as his only composition for piano, \"Lattice,\" on Texas Music (both records 1979). The label distributed solo and group recordings by those in Hunt's circle as well, including Larry Austin's electroacoustic, syncretic compositions in Hybrid Musics; James Fulkerson's unique, extended techniques for the trombone on Works; a fusion of three overlaid compositions in Dary John Mizelle's Music of Dary John Mizelle; spontaneous pieces and riff-based \"character improvisations\" in Music of BL Lacerta by the four piece \"orchestra in miniature\" BL Lacerta Improvisation Quartet; and experiments in compositional \"mapping\" by external structures in Cartography, featuring Austin, Gene de Lisa, Robert Michael Keefe, and Rodney Waschka II. Accompanying the boxed set is a richly-illustrated reader with a detailed essay on on the label by Lawrence Kumpf and Tyler Maxin; never-before-published archival materials; newly commissioned reflections by Fulkerson and the composer Jerry Willingham; as well as an interview with Hunt and ephemera including album and concert reviews, artworks, posters and flyers, and correspondences from the musicians and composers involved.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLP1: Lattice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound Machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eT'Chu LP2: Transform (Stream)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCantegral Segment 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransphalba\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolta (Kernel) LP3: Co-Ordinative Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusic for Brass Instruments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntiphonies and Streams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuite for Solo 'Cello LP4: Quadrants: Event\/Complex No. 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond Fantasy on Ives' Universe Symphony - The Heavens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCatalogo Voce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaroon Bells LP5: Polyphonies I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpectra for Bass and Computer Tapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimavera-Heterophony for 24 Celli LP6: High Energy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarts Same but Beautiful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlutes and Tuba\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowerful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstampie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Mother Is Here\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStravinsky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonkey Chant LP7: Sanctus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcertal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFractalis Balinesus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe Suite:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe-Colle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe Suite:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe-Alekhine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe Suite:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlekhine-Euwe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe Suite:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe-Najdorf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEuwe Suite:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoonen-Euwe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 785034477119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blank Forms Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.7.22\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadtime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42113314816075,"sku":"333178","price":422.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/7223\/1499\/files\/4145911-2900126.jpg?v=1770187148","url":"https:\/\/rockbandmerch.com\/products\/jerry-hunt-irida-records-hybrid-musics-from-texas-beyond-lp","provider":"Rock Band Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
