The music and sounds used in
Ubu 2000 were taken entirely from the datasphere (i.e. pre-existing sources) -- though many tracks were
then altered in some way. The music varied from classical to hip-hop, alternately supporting or contradicting
the burlesque vingettes that made up the show. The production also used sounds taken from New York city streets
and environments, often heavily distorted and slowed down up to 15 times the original speed. Below is a sampling
of music used in the production.
Kids Show (found online - source unknown)
Nigger Be Gone (from Peer Gynt)
Fuck Honkey Devil (found online - source unknown)
White Freak Show (found online - source unknown)
State of the City (new york, new york)
The Angels Theme (distorted sounds of NYC streets and subways) |
