    <description>La somme des travaux de &#171;plunderphonics&#187; de ce g&#233;nial compositeur.
    Plunderphonics 69/96 is a cultural paradox, one of the only truly underground musical phenomena
    to emerge in the latter quarter of the 20th century (&#8220;This art is more radical in its
    social and political associations than the introduction of the electric guitar&#8221;), yet
    featuring some of the world&#8217;s most recognizable music imbedded in novel constellations of
    sonic subversity by John Oswald. &#8220;Mr Oswald flew past the level of mere sampling. He has
    taken sampling fifty times beyond what we&#8217;ve come to expect.&#8221; This ambitious
    package contains 60 memorable tracks, from the Swinging Sixties to the Numb Nineties, on two
    hyper-dense discs covering the gamut of progressive musical endeavour, where punk meets
    classical, schmaltz marries metal, jazz divorces rap and electronica kills world.
    &#8220;Plunderphonics 69/96 is recreational savagery&#8230; A consistently brilliant
    record.&#8221; Each title features an instantly recognizable musical icon transformed into an
    electroquoted Frankenstein or Hyde with a plunderphoney moniker such as Anthrax Squeeze
    Factory, Sin&#233;ad O&#8217;Connick Jr, Beastie Shop Beach, or Bing Stingspreen. Often
    visceral, occasionally poignant, sometimes funny, never predictable and always challenging, the
    set is an entire record collection packed into this compact book form, including an extensively
    annotated retrospective account by reproducer Oswald, lavishly illustrated with full color
    collages. &#8220;For the moment John Oswald is a solo movement, the most exciting school of one
    in music.&#8221; Oswald has been restricted from releasing this music so [the label] Seeland
    has stepped in and &#8216;borrowed&#8217; this package and made it available to you. Profits
    will be invested in the future of plunderphonics.</description>
