I've just taken up investigating the Berna3 Software which duddex pointed to in this post: forum.aemodular.com/post/17009
This is not your usual DAW but is a digital recreation of a 1950's music studio like the one hosted by the WDR in Cologne in which Karl-Heinz Stockhausen made many of his compositions. Check out this overview and tutorial:
It looks so beautifully made and the approach is very intriguing so I may spend more time with it.
For now, my biggest problem is that I don't know anything about musique concrete or the ways in which people like Stockhausen, etc. made their electronic works back in those days of very basic tone generators and tape machines.
So I found this video, which analyses Stockhausen's "Gesang der Junglinge", very helpful but also quite daunting. It shows how much work went into this piece... over 900 individual sounds were made, individually recorded and then pieced together by manually slicing and gluing together pieces of tape! Absolutely incredible vision and dedication went into this.
If you know more about how to go about producing music in this manner, any book or video resources, please let me know!
