Ciao! Manhattan
** 2021 Stock ** Edie Sedgwick was the true “It Girl” of the Pop Art age; a woman who famously said she wanted “to turn the world on just for a moment”. Part of Andy Warhol’s Factory for a year in the mid-‘60s, she is widely believed to have inspired The Velvet Underground’s “Femme Fatale” as well as Bob Dylan’s “Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat” and “Just Like A Woman”.
* 1973’s Ciao! Manhattan, the model and actor’s final film, gave some indication of why she inspired such devotion. Written and direc…

A-sides – A cosmology of audio editions by Artists
Art & vinyl: an analytic anthology of artist's records in Switzerland. Since the beginning of its existence, the record has always been used by visual artists as a form of distribution for their sound practice.

Les Mystères Des Voix Vulgaires
*Original Divergo LP edition* As we’re becoming steadily aware, Gigi Masin and his mates made some truly beautiful music in the late ‘80s which is only just properly coming to light in recent years. Blessed with an almost ineffable air of sophistication and a sort of Venetian play-of-light, their music had existed quietly on the fringes, minding its own business until Music From Memory illuminated their work with 2014’s gorgeous Talk To The Sea compilation, and we were subsequently smitten with…
Danish Tape Amateurs 1959 - 1976
**2020 small repress** Outstanding! Long understood as the realm of advanced composition, plumbed only by a small handful of adventurous listeners, the spirit which began the history of tape music and musique concrète, is too often overshadowed and lost.

Or was it?The title makes clear allusion to the ide…
