Transmission Fields
2004 release ** "A surprising and ambitious trip from ambient to cosmic paths from Wintersilence - a project established in the late 1990s by Mathias Grassow (here under the alias of Tyler Whitney), Scaai, and Don Castellano. This work has various influences, but all titles have something in common; they all seem to suggest an evocative attitude. Mysterious vocals, acoustic / ethno-ambient sounds, epic post-rock structures with Nordic sensations. Rhythms and melodies cross themselves in a mixtur…
Colli Di Pedona
2003 release ** ""Based on a series of field recordings taken during a Tuscany stage of the Giro D'Italia 2002, The Colli di Pedona Tapes is probably the most psychedelic release to date from this fascinating Welsh duo. After a series of albums on the Ochre label that established them as one of new rising forces from the UK underground, Colli di Pedona is a slightly different take on their trademark sound: languid, luminous ambient tracks melt into minimal drones (the aptly titled 'Vortex'), whi…
Sub.terra
2003 release ** "The Foundry is pleased to announce the SUB.TERRA Project, a full length CD featuring remixes/recyclings of Interstitial's epic 'sub. Terra' piece. Contributors include vidnaObmana, Vir Unis, Saul Stokes, Michael Bentley (eM), and, of course, the inspirator Interstitial (John Koch-Northrup). The starting point, 'sub. Terra', is a composition that blends ambient textures with adventuresome trumpet excursions into a truly unique hybrid sound. As John (Interstitial) tells it, 'sub. …
Temps en Terre
2025 stock ** "Temps En Terre is the fifth album release from L'ocelle Mare, and the first to have been recorded in a studio. The preceding releases were characterised by a marked acoustic: the echoey reverberations inherent to Serpentement were thanks to the protestant temple it was recorded in; Engourdissement was entirely recorded in forest expanses, upon ponds and enclosed within remote wood cabins; Porte d'Octobre was recorded entirely in urban spaces; and his first, unnamed album was entir…
Serpentement
2025 stock ** "The solitary project of Thomas Bonvalet initially focused on the nylon string guitar, taking short, dynamic and abrupt forms and limiting itself exclusively to the acoustic possibilities of the instrument. A radical posture, it constantly threatened to put itself at an impasse, seeing itself forced into metamorphosis and movement. The instrument thus became less and less identifiable. At the periphery it absorbed the sound of objects (metronome, tuning forks...) deviating from the…
Luxury Apartments
Originated as a project to explore potential film/animation synchronisation with nods to his growing penchants for neo-classical, fee jazz and minimal music, German born and Derbyshire raised musician, painter and mathematician David Tyack began working under his new Luxury Apartments moniker in the summer of 2002. Having recently finished a self-penned conceptual LP with Can frontman Malcolm Mooney and writing and recording for the then yet to be mixed LPs by Jane Weaver’s Misty Dixon an…
Neural Oscillations And Alpha Rhythms

The Dance of Reality
After a twenty-three-year hiatus, The Dance of Reality marks the triumphant return of Alejandro Jodorowsky, the visionary Chilean filmmaker behind cult classics El Topo and The Holy Mountain. In the radiantly visceral autobiographical film, a young Jodorowsky is confronted by a collection of compelling characters that contributed to his burgeoning surreal consciousness. The legendary filmmaker was born in 1929 in Tocopilla, a coastal town on the edge of the Chilean desert, where the film was sho…
Introduction Of "Blue Of Noon"
2010 release ** "The Polish MonotypeRec has become the breeding ground for applied music. Recently, one interesting experimental release after another has been rolling off the press. Some elusive and incomprehensibly intriguing and others within the slightly more common frameworks. The first category includes the new collaboration between Olga Magieres and Tetsuo Furudate. Olga Magieres was born in Russia in 1955, but has lived in Denmark since 1971. Here she became a classically trained pianist…
Yoko Ono. Brucia questo libro dopo averlo letto
Italian Language Edition Yoko Ono è una delle instancabili innovatrici dell’arte contemporanea. Negli anni cinquanta scrisse le “istruzioni”, ovvero delle “partiture per l’arte” interpretabili più e più volte dal pubblico che diventava protagonista attivo. Iniziò così a rifiutare il ruolo dell’artista e il concetto di opera d’arte, considerata esclusivamente come oggetto materiale pronto per il mercato. Il suo percorso si concentrò invece ad abbattere i confini tra musica, performance, poesia e …
Black Music. I maestri del Jazz
Italian Language Edition Il blues e il jazz sono stati l’esperienza fondamentale attraverso la quale si è forgiata l’identità degli ex schiavi negli Stati Uniti: l’esperienza con cui il popolo afroamericano ha espresso il massimo di autonomia culturale rispetto all’America bianca. Da Duke Ellington ad Art Tatum, da Thelonious Monk a John Coltrane, da Sun Ra a Miles Davis, sono molti gli eroi che hanno indicato ai neroamericani la strada per diventare se stessi, qui splendidamente resi dal lirism…

They span a pivotal period of six years and the songs range from sultry to angsty to camp with plenty of lovely 808 snares and textural analogue synths. This period in particular saw the gay community having to deal with the onset of the HIV/AIDS cri…

Bleed
Back in full force, Northern Spy returns with what might just be the best record we’ve heard all year: The Necks’ “Bleed”. A creatively visionary and astounding immersion into the band’s singular realm of sonority, unfolding at a glacial pace over the 42-minute composition’s duration, these two vinyl sides comprise some of the most tense and ambitious moments we’ve ever heard from one of the most important bands working today.
