How to make Musique Concrète
Музыка
Music is everywhere, and thanks to recording equipment, it's even more everywhere. In this video, the Pagefire crew will go over an experimental genre where field recordings become a rhythmic nightmare.

I make weird noise music as well. This video is great. I’m gonna check some of your stuff out.
9:00 "They just standing there.....MENACINGLY"

The original ambient noise music. Basically the war retired grandpa.
this is keeping the tradition of "whatever genre Andri touches ends up sounding even better"

Andri is the anti-me!
Funnily enough, I have a whole CD set of Pierre Schaeffer's musique concrete sitting next to me right now. Considering what he had to work with in 1948, he would've found this mind-blowing.
As a French, I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed that we have created such a thing. Also the song's name is superb! Alors continuez votre bon travail car vos vidéos sont géniales !
Every music student needs to see this! I think that this is one of the best videos that you guys have put out because it covers the history of music at large.
I am SOOOOOO showing this to my History of Electronic Music class at the university where I teach... You literally touch on a majority of things I already cover in the lesson. Genius! (also, love the Nekonom(i)con shirt at the end! Nice...) Thank you!
AETHER REALM SHIRST LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Really everyone is a mashup of their parents.
I'm still waiting for a tutorial on Dream Theater. Also, absolute banger of an April fools video
Dispite it being april fools, honestly love how high effort the vid is

Watched many of this channels videos. Never felt compelled to post a comment until now. I really enjoyed the track.
best video since post-punk & doomer videos - spread those musical wings
This is the first time I’ve seen one of your videos. I was searching musique concrète and this popped up. This is literally the best video on KZread. +1 sub
Don't know why, but I love it
I was not expecting this, but kind of really cool and interesting. :)
I know and love the genre, I run an experimental electronic open mic called Breezeblock Beats, the names a homage to the pioneers. You nailed it in this video. Gret compisition at the end.
Despite it being April fool's, Musique Concrète is an actual genre

Welcome back. Pagefire 4 life
I just gravitate toward weird noise avant garde music especially the types that pushes the definition of what is music. Also, I love when artists use non instruments and turn it into music. (Matmos.) This video is awesome.
In Judas Priests' "Metal Gods" the clanging at the end, to resemble chains, is utensils being shaken in the tray. Does that count? Lol
OK: still have to watch the video, but as a savage metalhead who's ended up studying electronic music at the conservatoire for some reason, i'm hyped. Edit: oke, studying this stuff, i can confirm we actually do go around sampling random stuff and then deconstruct and reconstruct it on computers.
3:55 MY BOYS. gonna pour one out for floschno tonight 😔 EDIT: ok 5:23 is the best visual gag i've seen in a while. i love it. great job guys
This is weirdly relaxing on its own, and a good background for some Syd Barrett guitar. Bonus: Even the video is good!
I remember I found about Musique Concrète and that sort of stuff thanks to MySpace, when I was choosing the genres of my band and there was "Acousmatic Tape Music" in the list. Ah, the good old times of the Interweb.
If everything is a sample then life is just an unedited youtubepoop
for the intro to a solo album i did i recorded a few people making random sounds like coughing or just grunting and made a short electronic thing
Hey that's BBC presenter Michael Rodd from Tomorrow's World and Screen Test at the beginning!
That track came out nasty, niiice
I unironically like this genre, particularly "Dripsody". The guy literally recorded a single drop of water, and then just manipulated the tape to hell and back, and make it this really trippy two-minute little piece. Also the original 1960s Doctor Who theme music was technically musique concrete, because they didn't bother commissioning an artist to do it, so people in the sound department just took whatever they had in the BBC sound catalogue and patched it into the now-iconic theme.
funny as hell! 🤣 i've actually have a degree in this kind of stuff and i can guarantee for you that the piece would be considered too rhythmic and melodic in the obscure and evil classrooms of conservatories 😂 but sounds very fun!
Needed more Martin in the video.
4:08 so happy y'all finally mentioned one of my favorite bands ever
It would be so cool to see industrial metal next.
This is art.
"WHAT DID THE BIG BANG SAMPLE!?" 💀💀💀😂😂😂
Honestly, the track was pretty enjoyable.
Awesome video explaining the origins of the lovely songs I ever heard
This video is amazing and the music at end is genius
Amazing. Where you boys been? Glad you're back.
I was literally thinking to myself less than an hour ago about how much I like pagefire and wish they would upload more often.
you should do skramz/emoviolence

Hahahaha! great as always; and the song sounds good
8:54 What I really like is how the music he made sounds like one of those stop motion shorts film from the 90s, 2000's, and early 2010's.
i forgot i had this playing in the background and was like damn what is this banger of a track. im afraid ive become too pretentious
The clip very scary!!!!!😮😮😮
I loved the song! 10/10
This is great!
Awesome Vid! Thank You very much for Your Work! Greetings from Germany
1 day of trying to pagefire makes a video of how to make industrial metal
Certified banger 👌
this is awesome
Actually the sounds you came up with were reaally cool
Finally you guys make a new video
I'm sad you didn't mention the random KZread videos of people reproducing famous pop songs using only a single noise making objects like "Beat It" but it's only door stoppers. Essentially NileRed videos for music.
we need a video of avant garde metal or experimental metal video
"We have Tipsy at home"
martin is scaring me
Damm! This genre is so nice and so easy 😅😅😅
@5:00 Musique Concrete leading to Existential Dread is not only the funniest part but the truest as well!
This makes me want to dig out some of the early Young Gods albums.
I actually like this
This is basically just how to be radiohead
Makes me think of all of the ambient Cyberpunk music I listen to.
I made a Musique Concrete album when I was in highschool, my inspiration was "Prick" by the Melvins
Nice, sounds like 80’s Foetus
Ngl is it weird that I sorta vibed with the song?

This is Pagefire. Every single song is able to vibe with.
Throw in some convolution reverb and granular synths! You can really go crazy with sounds then!
Why did this not turn up in my recommendations last month or my subscription feed. I was literally writing some musique concrète inspired music for my college project. I wou’d’ve sited this video so much lol just for fun. Would’ve been such a great way to make my tutors pagefire fans lol

Should’ve also sited Martin’s paper. That would probably have been the better source lol though I don’t think my tutors speak Norwegian (?).
as trent reznor in a NIN song said: i'm just a copy of a copy of a copy....
I mean this just shows how important John Cage is to music, he invented sampling by inventing electro acoustic music and then musique concrete was invented.
Wow! This reminds me of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop sound effects for radio and television. Nice job, Pagefire! Can you try elektronische musik in reaper too? Both Musique concrete and elektronische musik are both made by the bbc radiophonic workshop.
koskenkorva in the background... like everyone should :D
ive always kinda wanted to do that
Amusing AF, y'all! Couple of addenda, tho... Some of the history on this goes back to before WWI, when the Italian composer and painter Luigi Russolo developed his concept of "Noise Music". This was performed using his "intonarumori", an ensemble of instruments designed to make and acoustically amplify various noise types. Sadly, there's only two poor-quality recordings of this, and Russolo's intonarumori were accidentally destroyed during the war. The other? A classical fave, Ottorino Respighi's "The Pines of Rome". Hah? Wut? No lie...that is the first musical work that SPECIFICALLY calls for a sample, and original scores of it actually came with a 78 RPM record containing the call of a nightingale, to be played during one section of the work. Amusingly, present-day performances of Respighi's work tend to use actual samplers with a proper digital recording of a nightingale...so, yeah. Oh...and in order to multitrack in the early, pre-Les Paul days, studios would use these frankenstein-ish cutting lathes with multiple, synchronized cutting heads and a similar arrangement of tone arms for multitrack playback. No, don't even ask; of course they were cumbersome and easy to f*** up, but worse still is that the "burr" being cut from the acetate disk was (and still is) insanely flammable. If the burr caught fire, you only had a matter of seconds to extinguish it before the ENTIRE LATHE would go up in a blaze of burning acetate! Only one studio in the USA that I know of used these, namely Columbia-Princeton in their "RCA Mk. II" studio...and then for only a short time as safer and less-screw up-able multitrack tape was finally available by the late 1950s. Great work, tho...MUCH better explanation of Musique Concrete than one normally hears, especially that tutorial track. Took me back to the late 1970s and my own initial explorations with splicing tape, blocks, and tape machine abuse in general! 👍
This is the soundtrack for my sleep paralysis demon.
2 day of trying to pagefire makes a video of how to make industrial
edutainment gud
I hate the sadness.
Beau travail, c'est mieux que du CyberGrind.
Took a while for me to understand that this is not a fake genre for April fools, like Backpedal xD.
The music from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is some great concrete musique.
Please do Harsh Noise Wall next.
If youre into Musique Concrete inspired stuff i can't recommend french musician Lingouf or the german Einstürzende Neubauten enought.
When you realize the instructions from 07:07 onwards literally describe your workflow ö_ö
Could you guys do a *how to make grunge* next?

Hmmmm nice
Also can you please release the instrumental to mfers from outer space?
Suggestion: how to make beatdown
