Exotica (book)  

From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

"Drawn from sources both lofty and lowly, the international exotica included Ernesto Lecuona’s ‘Jungle Drums’ and ‘Malaguena’, Margarita Lecuona’s ‘Tabou’, Duke Ellington and Juan Tizol’s ‘Caravan’, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s ‘Bali Ha'i', Bert Kaempfert’s ‘Tahitian Sunset’, Cal Tjader’s ‘Black Orchid’, Hoagy Carmichael’s ‘Hong Kong Blues’ (as sung by Carmichael in To Have and Have Not) and Richard Rodgers’s ‘March of the Siamese Children’". --Exotica (1999) by David Toop


"Erotica and exotica are close, not just semantically, but in their promise of a life less ordinary, detached from the libido suppression of reality, responsibility, rationality and 'civilization', hitched instead to a hopeless belief in the free physicality of primitivism." --Exotica (1999) by David Toop


"Exotica is the art of ruins, the ruined world of enchantment laid waste in fervid imagination, the paradox of an imperial paradise liberated from colonial intervention, a golden age recreated through the lurid colours of a cocktail glass, illusory and remote zones of pleasure and peace dreamed after the bomb. Nothing is left, except for beaches, palm trees, tourist sites with their moss-covered monuments, shops stocked with native art made for the invaders, beachcomber bars and an absurd perception of what may once have been.

Just ruins and a spell, repeated endlessly to provoke fading memories: lust and terror, chainsaw bikers, sultry tropical airs, Aztec spells, x-ray eyes and hot pants, sunken cities, lost cities, singing sea shells, electric frogs, bustin’ bongos, wild stuffed bikinis, jungle jazz, sacred idols, space escapades, switchblade sisters, pits and pendulums, tabu, taboo, tabuh, tamboo, taboo, tabuh, tamboo, tabuh-tabuhan."--Exotica (1999) by David Toop, p.8


"Apocalypse culture before their time, LPs such as Sounds of the Junkyard , Sounds of Medicine - Operation and Stethoscope Sounds, Voices of the Satellites and Urban Holiness Services, along with hallucinogenic mushroom ceremonies, conversations with dolphins, unknown sounds collected from 2,000 fathoms down in the Pacific Ocean and even a whole album of vocal sounds produced without the aid of a larynx, all floated at the edges of ethnomusicology and bioacoustic documentation."--Exotica (1999) by David Toop

Exotica: Fabricated Soundscapes in a Real World (1999) is a book by David Toop on 'the exotic' and easy listening featuring interviews with Burt Bacharach, Ornette Coleman, Bill Laswell, YMO’s Haruomi Hosono, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E..

From the blurb

Notions of the exotic have long inspired musicians across the musical spectrum, from classical to ‘easy listening’ to rap - from Stravinsky to the Boo-Yah T.R.I.B.E. Exotica takes a look at some of the world’s most witty, experimental and adventurous sound recordings while taking in the work of Les Baxter, the meaning of Carmen Miranda, leopard skin leotards, pink fluffy cubicles and elevator music.

First published on May 20, 1999 by Serpent's Tail.

Reviews

'To put it starkly, Toop knows far more, about a far broader range of music, than any other critic' New Statesman

'Brave in ambition and scope, exciting in execution… The result is a book that, like no other, encompasses the way people hear and produce music today' Jon Savage in Mojo

'Erudite and entertaining…including one of the most fascinating, eclectic discographies ever to make it into print' Wired

Epigraph in the shape of a pyramid

exotica
a dream
colonisation
a bizarre image
an image of paradise
mutual misunderstanding
an imagined quality of elsewhere
a projection from the unconscious
a conjured place, person or atmosphere
erotic desire synthesised with asexual phenomena
constructs of the imagination, essences of difference
that which is remote, other, unusual, unfamiliar, obscure
a fantasy of alien culture, behaviour, appearance, environment

part 1 • neo-noir

"The French author and translator, Arthur Mangin, published a romantic study of wilderness in 1872. The Desert World defined its subject as ‘all the regions where man has not planted his regular communities or permanent abodes; where earth has never been appropriated, tilled, and subjected to cultivation; where Nature has maintained her inviolability against the encroachments of human industry’."
