People are constantly doing things to improve themselves, to help make themselves a little smarter (or make themselves think that they’re smarter). Sometimes music can be part of a self-improvement. That’s what Wendy Carlos’ Switched-On Bach was for Graeme; as the revolutionary electronic music album started the a-little-too-serious teenaged Graeme on an excursion into the wider world of classical music. But how does that seminal record resonate with him all these years later? What do his compatriots in the Deeper Cuts trio think of it? There’s only one way to find out. So, switch on right here!
Unfortunately, Switched-On Bach isn’t on Spotify but our Spotify Playlist has been updated for Season 3 so check back to find albums from later episodes.
This entire episode reminded me of how much I absolutely adored the Clockwork Orange soundtrack!
