Denmark's Intuitive Music Conference 1997
1998 release ** Cardboard sleeve. "This disk documents the music made at the opening of DIMC '97 by a dozen delegates, most of whom had never played together before. Assuming there was no conductor (none is credited) and no pre-arranged sequence of events, the result is pretty astonishing.
Twelve strangers improvising together is a recipe for disaster; what usually happens is this. The music begins tentatively, unstructured, with no-one wishing to tread on toes. Slowly, pressure builds up as eg…

Touch Dissolves
**300 copies, 2019 stock** "With its ability to deliver both thick melodic lines as well as enveloping harmonies, the cello is a natural choice for artists looking to create a mood of tranquility. Over the course of his recording career, Aaron Martin’s knack for using the instrument to generate mournful tones, disquieting harmonic undercurrents, and the unwinding of melodies has opened up a world of nuance to a series of striking solo pieces.That being said, there’s an argument to be made that M…
Bestiaries
2011 release ** Oversize folded cardstock sleeve "This disc is the most sublime treatment of minimalist form. Dominique Lash performs brackets of beauty on his wary, droning double bass while Patrick Farmer teases possibility out from hidden silent edges with different percussion styles. Both of these musicians are accomplished in their own right, skilled at their various instruments, well-instructed in the traditional modes of music composition. This feeds and informs the work on Bestiaries. Y…

Air. ratio
*2025 stock* "My listening project (about controlled mechanical ventilation in new buildings) is multiple : it can function as a sound study, a sonic data bank, a CD of environments, and finally as a music. This CD isintended to be an object without distinctive function. This is precisely what interests me: the question of listening, at home. "

It happens only when one succeeds in giving life to music, a certain presence. I don't hesitate, even though I am not a writer, a painter etc., to say the same thing about them. For this composition, 'Supersedure', I met Eric. It seems to me that we share an artistic, but maybe also a general attitud…

Artoxin

The connection of two identical instruments in the concert frame is rare when you don't want to become a battle, and then with two fancy woodwind instruments is almost exotic. Deep-sounding instruments are mostly and inflexible, but in ma…
