Aurora Rising present the first vinyl reissue of L'Occident Est Bleu/L'An Cinquante-Six, originally released in 1958. Pierre Henry is most popular among rock fans for his collaboration with the English band Spooky Tooth in 1969 but he already had a great reputation as a composer and performer in the field of modern classics, musique concrète and pioneering electronic avant-garde. So it is obvious that there have been quite a few albums by him and in cooperation with other artists not necessarily from the field of music. L'Occident Est Bleu/L'An Cinquante-Six features sound contributions by Pierre Henry, and spoken word performances by popular French actors Michel Vitold and Silvia Montfort based on two texts by fellow actor and singer Claude Pascal. It can be seen as an audio book rather than a regular music record backed with sounds. All the texts are performed in French and they focus on dark themes. The musical part of this album is also quite intense with a haunting atmosphere, droning and disturbing at times. The drone and musique concrète aspects show the roots of what should become cosmic music in the late '60s and early '70s performed mostly by artists such as Tangerine Dream. And indeed there are a few moments here that remind me of the classic Zeit (1972) by Edgar Froese and his mates. A sound experiment, a twisted and creepy manifestation of weird thoughts in something that is loosely connected to music. A challenge for sure, but if you love the obscure and have a heart for avant garde music you are welcome to this first ever reissue of a long time vanished record. Includes two bonus tracks.

The best programming book you will ever read
Format: Paperback
This is without a doubt the best introduction to any programming language you will find. This book takes a hands on approach to learning Python. Concepts are explained clearly and examples and counter-examples are littered throughout each chapters. I like the direct/no waste time with useless preamble approach to explaining key concepts. The explanations are as succinct as it can get. The writer give general advice like not making your solution too generic initially but focus on solving the problem at hand first and then make the code more elaborate. The writer give off a patient tone as he encourages the reader to not be too hard on themselves when they make mistakes but view this as part of the learning process. He gives his own experience and also that of other programmers to encourage the reader to realistically evaluate their circumstances. What I like most about this book is that the exercises are intersperced between the sections within the chapters. That way you get to practice just after learning a new concept. There are final exercises incorporating what was covered in the chapter, the they do not seem to be a summary of all the content. I am reviewing now 23/02/2025. I have read the first 9 chapters and i am currently on chapter 10. When I am done i will update this review.
I use Jupter Notebooks to complete exercises. I head the first cell with the problem number and title and set it as a mark-down cell so it heads that mini section and the code window below contains my solution. That way I have all exercises for a chapter in one file and can easily scroll up to see previous solutions and copy code which the problems requests at times. In the end I envisage I will have 20 files - one per chapter.
