Was it really the first record to feature reversed vocals or was there some underground shit that technically came first?
Maybe "first" as in the first to be in the top 40

The beatles are pleb mom rock

So what actually came first then? That's what I was asking. There's a lot of stuff that the Beatles did "first" which was actually not actually a new idea at all and just happened to be something they took to the mainstream, and I'm asking if this is one of them.

considering the establishment of the princeton-columbia cmc in the 50s, i'd be willing to bet there are some very old tape-loop projects using reversed vocals

didn't hear any reversed vocals in this and it seems to be a relatively recent composition anyway, certainly much later than 1966

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Every time.
To >>61286788, I don't disagree but don't you think someone would have found it after 50 years?

>I don't disagree but don't you think someone would have found it after 50 years?
well this guy has a point
>>61286762
not many people listen to musique concrete anymore. I think the biggest reason that people would even listen to electronic compositions from the 50s would be out of curiousity.
however, I did find this on wikipedia
>One of the best known examples of music featuring reverse tape effects is the Doctor Who theme (1963)
also found this
http://qcpages.qc.cuny.edu/hhowe/music773/links.html
in the second section, tape splicing is mentioned and is dated in the early 50s/late 40s even
>>61287050
Well, yeah, I know about the Dr. Who theme thing. I'm talking specifically how it's used here though, using reverse tape loops to add reversed vocals to a song (and, in the case of I'm Only Sleeping, a reversed guitar). It'd be interesting to hear an example of that specific usage done earlier than when the Beatles did it.

>using reverse tape loops to add reversed vocals to a song
oh, this specifically?
probably this, if we assume that track 1 was indeed composed in 1965

I have this somewhere on my hard drive or mega account if you wanna check it out. track 1 is honestly the only reason to listen to this, track 2 is a pretty long winded electroacousmatic composition
>>61287289
I'd be very very interested in hearing this, yeah.
