Recorded in September 1982 in his first loft in the pre-gentrified Dumbo neighbourhood in Brooklyn, New York, \u003ci\u003eSeptember 23rd\u003c\/i\u003e is a recently unearthed early entry in what has become a hugely inspirational and influential catalog. Built from a piano piece that Basinski composed in high school in the mid-1970s, \u003ci\u003eSeptember\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003e23rd\u003c\/i\u003e quickly evolved into a vastly different work. As Basinski explains: \"The original piano recordings were made on on a piano belonging to my downstairs neighbor, John Epperson – later known more famously as world-renowned drag artist, Lypsinka – at 351 Jay Street aka Casa Degli Artisti, our first loft in New York. It was recoded with a little portable (probably Radio Shack) cassette deck sitting on the piano as I improvised a piece I had been working on since high school. It was pretty terrible, but when I did the John Giorno\/William Burroughs cut-up technique, suddenly I had something to put through the Frippertronics loop and feedback loop tape delay system – and boy did I get results. A very prolific time for a young, wacked-out queen in NYC.\" \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Temporary Residence Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50531241197899,"sku":"2217073","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue LP","offer_id":50531241296203,"sku":"2217074","price":37.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50531241099595,"sku":"2217072","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/William_Basinski_-_September_23rd_60620697_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728100854","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/september-23rd","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
