G-Spots is the first ever retrospective of Studio G, one of the smallest,but finest music libraries to come out of the UK. It was started in London, in the late 1960s by advertising man John Gale. He realised that most library music at the time was still very much "light orchestral". He decided to change things and across 48 albums between 1969 and 1982 made quite an extraordinary impact. With a small stable of talented and versatile musicians, Studio G produced albums covering all major library music genres - Horror, Pop, Industrial, Children, Jazz, Avant Garde.
The results were a stunning collection of stripped down, simple but extremely effective compositions across a variety of genres, many employing heavy delay, reverb, echo boxes and early synthesis.
G-Spots begins with humble tracks with treated guitars and musical jaunts into outer space; then moving through jazz, easy listening and oddball sounds into weird, dark and often quite unsettling future music.There are drifting synthesiser soundscapes, unsettling vocal tapeloops, even the odd bit of electro voodoo. With music this interesting and different it's understandable that bands like The Chemical Brothers and Unkle have sample some of the more obscure corners
of the catalogue. It will also come as no surprise that originals of the rarer Studio G albums fetch huge amounts of money when they come up for sale.
Highly Recommended!!!!
