The five selections that make up Robert Fripps 1999 album were selected from 12
different live, improvised performances recorded in Buenos Aires, Argentina in
1994. And although some King Crimson fans will be confused by Fripps musical
departure, hes said that his soundscape material is his most immediate and
personal work, since the improvised performances can change from night to night,
depending on the circumstances. Also, it is pretty fascinating just how many
different tones, colors, and textures Fripp creates with just a guitar, guitar
synthesizer, and effects pedals (it sounds almost like a full electronic
orchestra at times). Fripp also chose not to edit or cut any of the songs on
1999 (except for one), so the songs sound exactly the way they did when Fripp
first improvised them in front of an Argentinean audience back in 94. If you
want to check out Fripps Frippertronics technique, which he talks about often in
interviews (Fripp describes the technique as being based on delay, repetition,
and hazard), 1999 is an adequate introduction.
