Organ and Silence
File under: minimalism, conceptual sound art, organ music. A music whose talking about, as the author writes in the disc notes, 'the importance of silence in music'. This work is conceived not 'for organ' but, really, for 'organ and silence', as the silence is a founding part of it, and it's not possible to give it up.

“This is one of those moments that we’re always hoping for, and it's so rare. And it's so hard to talk about, because it's so beautiful. It's like you're seeing some new species of plant that you never knew existed or something.” – Bill Frisell
Nebuloasa
Tip! "A magnetic tape turns, imperturbably, accompanied by the crackle of a vinyl and the waves of an old radio. A heart inhabits these vibrations transformed into hypnotic drones. The loops become celestial when a song emerges, close to an incantation or prayer. Other voices try to extricate themselves from this analog maelstrom, those of specters lost in foggy saturations. Terrifying sighs, nocturnal howls, witches' rites and otherworldly melancholy, the two musicians of Géométries know how to…
♥ / Lamb
Soccer Committee has always been an consistent exercise in restraint, and offering space. And on ‘♥ /Lamb’, this approach has been taken to perfection. The arrangements are still minimal, with plenty of time for the tones and melodies to resonate with maximum impact. Mariska Baars still carefully selects each note, and lets the sound evolve with precise care. Her songs are definitely rooted in the folktradition, but at the same time very ‘ambient’, in the true sense of the word. And still: there…

Thanks to Russell's partner Tom Lee and to Steve Knutson of Audika Records, who have forged several records from Russell's…

Five potent new Jones compositions, and a striking arrangement of “No More My Lord” (a prison song rec. by Alan Lomax at Parchman Farm). Legend of e’Boi is the 7th chapter (of 9 on completion) in Jones’ expansive Man…
