The Caretaker is a project by electronic musician James Leyland Kirby characterized by memory exploration and driven by nostalgia. Initially, inspired by the haunted ballroom scene in the 1980 film The Shining, consisting of treated and manipulated samples of '30s ballroom pop recordings.
All You Are Going to Want to do is Get Back There is a song that I love to listen on repeat for some time. It gives me the feeling of eternity and makes me think of samsara, the unceasing flow of rebirth through the worlds, experienced by sentient beings, where the soul is led to believe in the reality of the temporal and phenomenal world.
This song is truly something else!
Das Sampling ist quasi Teil des Urgesteins der elektronischen Musik und reicht bis in die 50er Jahre zurück, damals noch mit Tonbändern ausgeführt. Ich habe dazu schon mal einige Posts gemacht.
So ist zB. der original Titeltrack von Dr. Who anfang der 60er von einer englischen Pionierin der elektronischen Musik, Delia Derbyshire, durch Tonband-Sampling gemacht worden.
Sorry, I wrote this in german at first, dont know why. Here is the translation: Sampling is virtually part of the bed rock of electronic music and goes back to the 1950s, at that time still carried out with audio tapes. I've done some posts on that before.

Here are two of my favorite Delia songs:

Yeah, when I started writing the answer I was thinking your post was in german - don't really know why. I only noticed after it was done. I need recalibrating or something... 😊
Yes, that was all pretty wild stuff, concidering the time it was made in - when the Beatles music was seen as something revolutionary. Its similar with Czukay, he was perhaps the most famous unknown Avantgarde musician in Germany...
