Unidentified Sound Object
2006 release ** “Unidentified Sound Project” opens with a section entitled “Quantum Dripping” (three tracks), which relays their non-compromising sound research that deals with stylized interferences. Nervous sound structures (which are then modulated in the subsequent “Rebirth” section), elementary sound particles, cacophonies and granular sound frizzles consistently abuse the electronic medium. Perhaps this is a foil to certain less radical audio expressions, considering that Milani used to ma…
Drilling Holes In The Wall
2007 release ** "The sounds on Drilling derive mostly from modified toy synthesizers, hooked to a variety of electronic devices such as a film projector or a lamination machine. With these, he constructs pieces that move freely between the worlds of sound art and improvised music. Montgomery works along paths determined by the instruments and appliances he uses, but the overall structure is open. Deliberate variations in density and texture do occur as do climaxes, but the pieces often take unex…
Compromize
1992 release ** Ten years ago the Wahrnehmungen label from Mainz, Germany, founded by the group PD was renamed Selektion (and PD changed to P16.D4). In 1984 artists joined Selektion to form a new kind of artistic project for music (S.B.O.T.H.I., SLP) as well as for visual arts. In this very recording, almost all members have, in various combinations, made their approach to an organization of sound. It is the state of things of Selektion's audio productions.Selektion are: M. Caspers, G. Lörcher, …
Say Yes. Till No.
2025 stock ** "What Phil Minton creates with nothing but his voice those "simply unbelievable and uncanny sounds for which nothing comparable exists, far and wide" (Bert Noglik) seems to lie beyond what it is possible. He is the indisputable vocal giant of the jazz avant-garde. He meets a collective of kindred spirits with the ICI Ensemble. Comprising some of the most enthusiastically experimental instrumentalists and sonic artists of the German improvisation scene, this ensemble has been creati…
buda_rom
2002 release ** "This album features the Swiss three-quarters of the Swiss-French electro-acoustic improv group poire_z. It consists of live recordings from Budapest and Rome in late 2000. There are three "buda" tracks, each one lasting over ten minutes, and four "roma" tracks of three minutes and under -- the latter have also been remixed by Günter Müller and Norbert Möslang to serve as bridges between the main pieces. Müller has been performing with Voice Crack (Möslang and Andy Guhl) since 19…
Dance Sing And Listen Again!
*In process of stocking* Canadian composer Bruce Haack one of the true pioneers in the field of electronic and children's music. Originally released in 1962 "Dance, Sing & Listen" was Haack's debut album. Following instructions from children dance teacher Esther Nelson the album comes as a hyper-eclectic work based on a great variety of sound material. A hybrid soup of medieval, country, classical, and pop styles including tons of electronic effects, guitars, banjos and other acoustic string ins…
Azimut
* 500 copies. 180 gr. Red vinyl, 50th anniversary edition * First album from the one of the best Italian jazz-rock band (formed in Rome in 71), and the first of a few masterpieces in a row, all of them being distinctive from one another. Perigeo has their sound somewhere between Free Jazz, Soft Machine, Nucleus and Miles Davis' Bitches Brew period. Rising on spacey noises, the sublime Posto Di Non Dove starts to grab you with a quiet electric piano over a Floyd-like organ and Tommaso’s superb …
Music for Today
Recorded in 2019 at the Centre Pompidou, Music for Today is the last public performance by Canadian artist Michael Snow, who died in 2023. Entirely improvised on a prepared piano, this musical piece is a true journey through the musical work of an artist who made perpetual experimentation an artistic practice in its own right.
Prolific and multidisciplinary, Michael Snow (1929-2023) was a major figure in the fieldsof painting, sculpture, photo, cinema, and video, as well as in sound and music. H…
In A Silent Way
"Listening to Miles Davis' originally released version of In a Silent Way in light of the complete sessions released by Sony in 2001 (Columbia Legacy 65362) reveals just how strategic and dramatic a studio construction it was. If one listens to Joe Zawinul's original version of In a Silent Way, it comes across as almost a folk song with a very pronounced melody. The version Miles Davis and Teo Macero assembled from the recording session in July of 1968 is anything but. There is no melody, not ev…
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…
