Bari Workshop
restocked: BW hosted a group of medieval miniature manuscript painters who were amongst the experts in the recording of the history of science and who circulated knowledge around the world and across cultures. Greek texts on Euclidean geometry were translated into Arabic, and medieval Arabic manuscripts on optics and geometry migrated to Western Europe, where, translated into Latin, they contributed to the development of perspective in Renaissance Italy.Hand in hand with scholarly interests were…
There\'s A Flame ___ Sometimes

Divagazioni
Sicilian saxophonist, flutist, composer and arranger Nino Rapicavoli is one of the unsung heroes in the world of Italian soundtracks of the 1970s. A musician with a solid background in jazz as well as a long-time member of Italy's state-owned RAI TV orchestra, Rapicavoli has only a handful of library albums to his name, but each is of the highest quality. This Divagazioni ('Ramblings') is probably the best of the lot, an album that mixes jazz, easy listening and a pinch of prog with that …
Resonating Upon Harmonic Ground
Justin Meyers from Minneapolis offer a beautiful track of musique concrete and analog synth. Exploring the interaction between field recordings and simple sine waves, the result is a perfectly balanced suite, where the single elements lose their origins in favour of composition. Edition of 150
Find Out What Happens When People Stop Being Polite, And Start G
"Hype Williams have cultivated a sublime aura of mystique around their heady sound with only a few 7"s and an almost-mythical LP for Carnivals. Ahead of a forthcoming HiT EP, their latest, 'Find Out What Happens When People Stop Being Polite And Start Gettin Reel' is one of the most highly anticipated albums of the year, a 24-minute portal into their hypnagogic vortex. If you've checked their warped videos on youtube or picked up the 'Do Roids And Kill E'rything' 7" you'll have a good idea what …
Night Gallery
Night Gallery III" is the first one to drop from the collaborative efforts of psychedelia power-houses, Sun Araw and Eternal Tapestry. Composed in the heat of SXSW-ian Texas and littered with odes to the Twilight Zone, the upcoming LP of the same name is the result of an improvisational drum circle recorded in one go.
"Night Gallery III" is desert drone that feels cleaner than waking up in the Sahara after a peyote trip left you stranded and asking where the saxophone came from, but sort …
Seizing fate by the throat
Finally Restocked: Byce Beverlin II is a prolific, multidisciplinary artist based in Minneapolis. His primary discipline is music - specifically, freely improvised vocals and percussion. Seizing Fate by the Throat is a distillation, the spirit of 15 years of spittle and brass vapors collected in this studio recording from March 14, 2010. Quietly tinkering with an array of metal, plastic and wooden objects, Beverlin draws the listener in only to reveal that he is unlocking the cage of a l…
Fast ohne Titel, Korrosion
Black Rose Recordings are proud to present the exceptional new album by Asmus Tietchens. Corrosion is a degradation mechanism. It is an insidious process often difficult to recognise until deterioration is well advanced. Are these new pieces a comment on the current state of noise music, serious music or both? As a pioneer of electronic composition his work spans over three decades and doesn't fit easily into any one category. Early recordings ranged from experiments with tape machines and elect…

Vagabond
2013-05-25Brand new full length from Golden Cup featuring a new expanded 4 piece (Luca Massolin, Maurizio Abate and France band). Vagabond features 3 tracks, the opening 15 minute tracks takes up the full A side with wild psychedelic percussion and floating riffs, it's one hell of a jam. The B side features two shorter pieces, the first which are totally tranced out tribal percussive pieces, it sound nuts. The closing tracks is the perfect blend of the previous two tracks, crazy percussion…

The second disc in this set “Quetzalcoatl” diffuses into the air an alien vocabulary of…
Inland
Kye is proud to present Inland, the new LP by Clapton-based Astor. Advancing the cause of 2012's 'Alcor' LP, 'Inland' finds Mark Harwood and sometime collaborator Maja Larsson further complicating reason with dark and circuitous audio constructs. Inland' is sonically conceptualised through the meticulous choice of instrument used: ranging from an array of bells, gongs and ethno-percussion, alongside petrified piano melodies and a grinding organ. Accordingly, this is complemented by the use of T.…
Catalyse
The origins of Ame Son go back to the mid-sixties, when Bernard Lavialle (guitar), Bernard Stisi (guitar, vocals), Patrick Fontaine (bass) and Marc Blanc (drums) formed Les Primitivs circa 1965. They took the Parisian stages with a Yardbirds/Pretty Things inspired wild R&B set, and they kept active until Stisi left in 1967. At that point they changed their name to Expression, and with a more experimental approach they took their newly find free rock sound a la Soft Machine to night clubs …

St. Francis Duo
“Having played together in Æthenor for the last couple of years, Steve Noble & Stephen O’Malley came together to play as a duo at Cafe Oto in 2011. These recordings are the results of these two hot and sticky nights in East London. Noble is a regular at Bo’Weavil Recordings, having appeared on over nine recordings for the label, and a linch pin in London’s improvising community. Steve Noble studied with Nigeria master drummer Elkan Ogunde and in the early 1980s and over the last 20 years …
Improvisations
Dedicated to the memory of Tony Marsh. The recordings on this double LP are taken from the first night of Roscoe Mitchell's inaugural two day residency at Cafe OTO in 2012 and his first time playing with drummer Tony Marsh and double bassist John Edwards. It was one of those nights where the music electrifies the room. Everyone on edge. Everything alive with the possibilities. Although there was much talk after the concert of the group playing together again this would sadly be the first and la…
Natives Are Restless
Recorded in 2005/2006 in Portugal and Europe... and they like to dance to the sound of tribal music!
Too Dead for Dreaming�
Debut vinyl album by contemporary electric guitar wizard Bill Nace, ‘Too Dead for Dreaming’ begins in the form of a deconstructed blues piece, slowly exploring the territories of atonal composition, string–scraping and feedback, crashing all these styles in an instinctive, personal way. His affiliations with X04, Northampton Wools and Vampire Belt converge here in a unique flux. Bill’s ability in creating sounds, follows a clear logic of ‘construction of tension’ that eventually explodes…
