Featuring Pharaoh Sanders and Black Harold
"To understand the significance of the word 'featuring' on Featuring Pharoah Sanders And Black Harold, consider how infrequently Sun Ra used it and the exact way it had been used."The October Revolution in Jazz, organized by Bill Dixon in the West Village in 1964, presented a vivid cross section of approaches to the new music, including a sextet led by Ra. For the October Revolution's continuation, titled Four Days in December, held at nearby Judson Hall on the last days of 1964, the Arkestra pe…
Tähtisilmä
Hot Heros once again bring a raw jazz grit to the heart of Finnish folk.

Aika ja tila
Kuusijärvi/Rönkkö launches the concept of accordion jazz into orbit with their album Aika ja tila (Time and Space). Built entirely on improvisation, this six-track collection stretches both musical genre boundaries and the very fabric of spacetime. Harri Kuusijärvi’s electronic accordion sounds at times like the chirping of a cyborg bird flock, and at others like Brian Eno’s electric toothbrush just as the batteries are dying. The other half of the duo, Tatu Rönkkö, weaves through his drum kit, …

Manifestations In The Shadow Of An Uncertain Land
Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land unfolds through aleatoric composition and intuitive process, shaped by deeply entangled political and aesthetic lineages. Rooted in lived experiences of bodies and minds navigating the localized and global weight of imperialism, the work also draws from the temporal logic of film and literature, where memory, dread, and anticipation coexist. Working with voice and modular electronics, Lowe treats sound as a sculptural and cinematic force, informe…

The album's great achievement lies in how it binds together two major cultural currents of 1970s France: the national passion for progressive rock, and what came to …

Cadaveri Eccellenti (Colonna Sonora Originale)
The soundtrack for "Cadaveri eccellenti", composed by Piero Piccioni in 1976 for Francesco Rosi's film, is one of the most fascinating and unsettling works in Italian film music. Like the film itself, the music evokes a constant sense of tension, a dark atmosphere, and a profound unease that perfectly matches the narrative of this political thriller. “Cadaveri Eccellenti”, based on Leonardo Sciascia's novel “Il contesto”, is a masterpiece of Italian cinema that delves into themes of corruption, …
