En voici 500
Le premier locked groove connu est à la fin d'une face de Sgt Pepper des Beatles.
Je crois bien que Botch l'a fait sur We are the romans
Indispensable sur le sujet : Lockgroove Comix 1 et 2

When was the last time you bought a compilation with 500 tracks by 500 artists? Never right? You can now. This LP features just that ... 500 locked groove tracks, 250 per side. You drop the needle where you want, listen to the locked groove until you're sick of it, then drop the needle somewhere else. It's a pain in the ass but it's fun too. Some of the more familiar names among the 500 artists: Aube, Zoviet France, Otomo Yoshide, Terry Riley, Project Dark, the Haters, Lee Ranaldo, Thurston Moore, Masonna, People Like Us, Sonic Youth, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. This is the first time I've reviewed something without actually listening to it all beforehand ... but do you know how long it's going to take to hear all of these tracks? Quite a long time. Someday when I have a lot of free time on my hands I'll sit down and do it and maybe tape them off. Anyways, I dropped the needle randomly several dozen times on both sides for this write-up. What I heard were short (a few seconds apiece) found sound style loops of just about everything you can imagine: whirs, clicks, whistles, buzzes, drones, clankings, bangings, scrapings, industrial noises, electronics, drums/percussion, dialogue bits and undescribeable samples and collages. A lot of really interesting sounds here ... quite a few you can leave repeating for a good length of time. The records comes in a neatly designed b/w double gatefold sleeve with the full list of artists on the inside that comes in a clear bubblewrap sleeve. This is one of those items you own just because it's unique and cool and don't necessarily spin all that often. Art, for cheap, at around $10 ... —Mark Weddle
