Pieces Pour Serge
*300 copies limited edition* In 2021, Wilfried Wendling offered a 3-day residency to Marion Camy-Palou at the Muse en Circuit (Alfortville / Paris), a working time which then has evolved into a 2-year cruise dedicated to the Serge Modular System (offered by Jean Claude Eloy at the Muse).

Hulda
This album is written and recorded on a reed organ with two manuals and pedals. The instrument was built by Alfred Cedergren who was a reed organ builder 1870–1925 in Vänge on the island Gotland, Sweden. During this period of time Hulda Veström lived in the same village. When Hulda was 14 years old she left her mother and sisters to travel to her father in Los Angeles. In spring 1912 she boarded the Titanic together with her aunt, who was also named Hulda.

Osondi Owendi
*2024 repress* "Osondi owendi. What is cherished by some is despised by others. One man’s meat is another man’s poison. Different strokes for different folks. To each their own. Osondi owendi. It’s a conventional aphorism in the Igbo language but if you utter the word “osondi owendi” in Nigeria today, the first thing that comes to anybody’s mind is the cucumber-cool highlife music maestro Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe and his legendary album that takes its name from the adage. Released in 1984, Os…

Jaipongan Music Of West Java + Reworks
*2024 repress* "Mind-melting West Javanese gong pop, recorded in 2007 at Jugala studios in Bandung, based on a Javanese secular village music and dance tradition known as ketuk-tila, which was transformed into a popular studio music in the early 1960s by the producer Gugum Gumbira, founder of Jugala. With vocals by Idjah Hadidjah, one of the key historic voices of jaipongan, the situation here is disorientatingly heavy, low bpm gong pressure coming straight from the originators. It is a much les…

Walze 1-8
*2024 stock* The source material of the compositions are historical recordings made on wax cylinders (German: "Walze") from the archive of the Ethnological Museum in Berlin. The recordings were all made at the beginning of the last century in different parts of the world. For each of my eight pieces I processed the sounds and noises of one wax cylinder using a computer, sometimes modulating them with sine waves (Walzen 3, 4 and8), combining them to new compositions.
I was interested in the inter…
Pochen - Oder : Mit Nachschleifendem Zwirnsfaden Die Treppe Hinunterkollern
*2024 stock* I recorded the sounds for this piece in March 2011 at the "Performance Arts Forum" in France. The PAF is housed in a former convent school, which was built at the end of the 19th Century in the village of St. Erme in Picardy. After the convent school and a hospital during World War I, various temporary uses and a long term of vacancy, the PAF was founded in 2006 as a workplace for artists.
During my three-week stay, I kept sneaking through the 6.400 m2 building: From the attic to th…

John Giorno in Florence
2024 Stock. John Giorno is perhaps best known as the star of Andy Warhol’s Sleep. More significantly, Giorno’s multimedia publication and performance projects have consistently transgressed and redefined the boundaries of literature and mass media. The publisher of Giorno Poetry Systems LPs, CDs, tapes, and videopaks, Giorno first made his mark in the late sixties as the innovator of the Dial-A-Poem System (1969): a twelve-line telephonic system allowing callers to hear one of twelve different p…
Flasket Brinner
** 1971 debut album reissue with bonus Lp with unreleased material. Limited edition 500 copies ** In the early 1970s, Sweden, similar to neighboring Germany, had a vibrant music culture that shunned American and British tendencies.
