RSD 2021 RELEASE! Formed in 1966 in Rome, Musica Elettronica Viva, or MEV for short, used contact microphones to record and manipulate sound wherever it could be found - from box springs to vibrators - and combined those recordings with tenor sax, homemade synths and the very first Moog. The musicians were all about musical freedom and the shunning of convention. Recorded live at the Academy Of Arts in Berlin on October 5, 1967 and made up of a single piece, 'Spacecraft' is a slowly building, jarring and disquieting work that clearly represents MEV's ethos in about half an hour.
