This LP features the results of "On Perpetual (Musical) Peace?" realized in Mexico City in 2019 with Liminar, a Mexican ensemble that works at the boundaries between composed and improvised music, performance and sound installation, and regularly performs in Mexico City's main chamber music halls as well as in museums, galleries and alternative venues. An extensive PMP concert took place at Bucareli 69, an art and concert space in a late-19th-century villa near the city's historical centre. The …
**100 Copies in light Blue vinyl** “La Camera Astratta” is the result of the amazing collaboration between
Piero Milesi e Daniel Bacalov with the experimental theatre-performance
of the Studio Azzurro and Giorgio Barberio Corsetti. An idea of
immersion in a dimension devoid of gravity, the desire concerning a
soft, ethereal, articulated and perfectly interpenetrated reality. It's
an evocative ambient sound, with rhythmic cadence, soft and repetitive,
full of airiness; the music expresses t…
A unique Japanese funk masterpiece from 1973, in which Rinsyoe Kida, Tsugaru's shamisen Maestro, and Akira Ishikawa, one of Japan's most loved and celebrated leading drummers, as well as experimenter and brilliant composer, performed together. The ancient sound of the shamisen ride on the finest funk and the intense groove of Ishikawa. An extraordinary audiophile-quality recordings.
**150 copies, black vinyl** Miscellanea – originally released in 1969 on cult italian label Sermi SR Records (home of famous composer such as Bruno Nicolai, Francesco De Masi, I Marc 4 and more) – is the debut of composer Luigi Zito, an in-demand session player and music director throughout all the seventies. An extremely brilliant music library with lots of jazz licks, descriptive and improvisational themes composed with a multitude of instruments, including the famous whistle by the one and on…
Super Tip! 400 copies, black vinyl. 1968 was a crucial year for Volker Kriegel's career, as he released "With A Little Help From My Friends," his first solo album, and signed with American vibraphonist Dave Pike, joining what would quickly emerge as one of the most popular and influential jazz fusion combos. This precious document reissued for the first time by Cinedelic Jazz with bonus tracks highlights all his qualities that enabled him to become one of the most acclaimed and innovative guitar…
Cult synth-pop album from 1984 repressed for the very first time. One of the most obscure Synth / Italo recordings from Germany with the Danny “Skorpio” Antonelli’s haunting vocals. Includes the obscure deep “Black Mercedes” and the hit “Long Hard Climb”.
2025 stock Sharp strands of disintegrated string samples gradually pull together; celestial multi-tracked voices gather and thudding drums sketch out a spontaneous ritual routine; timeline and drone form a crawling impressionistic narrative. The first collaboration of Rupert Clervaux and Dania stretches across a single momentous 77-minute piece, combining languid drone with bursts of improvised vocals and percussion. The constituent pieces fuse together to form an exceptionally delicate epic tha…
2025 stock What is considered making music today? What is it that we like / dislike or is considered music today? Monotonous structures, global rhythm, predictability? How profound is the influence of pervasive media on how we shape our tastes? Are we able to dissect the overwhelming presence of multimedia content? —Glass. By focusing on the physical aspect of sound—in its broadest way—'crY' can be seen as a response to an explicit impulse to investigate modern commodification beyond its soothin…
*100 copies limited edition* In his late forties, Andreas Malm is releasing his first solo album. So where has he been hiding all these years? In plain sight, it seems. The past few decades, he’s been a staple in the music scene of Malmö, Sweden. From the free-rock outbursts of Fria Konstellationen to the tapedrones of Amph, the synthscapes of Skeppet and probably best known, the minimalist rockquartet Eternal Music Society: it’s fair to say he’s been around. Just not all by himself. As Kroppskä…
Venerable composer and pianist Charlemagne Palestine revisits his seminal 1976 work ‘The Golden Mean’ in duo with enigmatic artist Rrose, reprising a dialogue started 10 years ago when Rrose was studying at Mills College and looking for a score to Charlemagne’s amazing ‘Strumming Music’…“In 2018 the Festival Variations in Nantes commissions Palestine to perform The Golden Mean, reworking the piece for two pianists. Palestine chose Rrose to join him in this new rendition of the work. Together, th…
Born at the end of 1984, Gerstein moved between filmic experimentalism and piano sonatas with background noise elements.In 1989, after the release of the cassette La Pomata Delle Femmine, the project seemed to have reached its end. However, Maurizio Pustianaz’s creation took a new direction, shifting toward a sound still open to experimentation but influenced by the more romantic atmospheres reminiscent of David Sylvian.
In 1991/92, the first embryonic versions of the tracks that would later ap…

"Two discs, 17 tracks per disc, just whistling, never remotely pyrotechnic, always with substantial breath in the tone, emerging from the very audible hum of the room, subsiding back into it. Slow, hints of melody but, fundamentally, the kind of things you'd whistle to yourself when deeply thinking of matters, perhaps not even realizing you're whistling. It's so personal, in a way, yet you don't (at least I don't) have any uncomfortable feeling of eavesdropping. Beuger is a fluti…

"Another joint production by Edition Wandelweiser and Radio Bremen testifies to the originality of the Japanese composer Makiko Nishikaze. Her idiosyncratic diptych pianopera l & II (2002), with its unpredictably alternating sound structures, follows no discernible logic, yet its musical structure never seems arbitrary, so that the music, despite the great aesthetic distance, certainly seems related to Luigi Archetti's CD discussed at the beginning. It is the varied penetration i…

New compilation of works by emerging west coast composers who somehow belong within a John Cage lineage. Music by James Tenney, Michael Pisaro and their students, Mark So, Michael Winter, Chris Kallmyer, Tashi Wada, Liam Mooney, Scott Cazan, Laura Steenberge, Cat Lamb, Quentin Tolimieri and Casey Anderson. "A compilation of work by twelve composers, ten of whom studied with James Tenney and/or Michael Pisaro (who are also represented by pieces here) at Cal Arts, performed by a qu…

"The three pieces presented by Borg (piano) and Nørstebø (trombone) are spellbinding explorations of the low tone. Three pieces but they segue into one another effortlessly and, with the possible exception of slight variation in pitch (and I'm not even sure of that) are pretty much indistinguishable from each other unless I missing some subtle pattern shift. The sounds are all low and sustained--bottom of the keyboard piano and extremely low trombone (the disc says, simply, "trom…

Few composers have the self-control seen here to allow the silence that surrounds all we do to be so present, to bring to the forefront that which is covered by all of our daily activities, only present when we let ourselves realize the stillness at the base of all action, all sound. The regular presence of notes in calme étendue (oboe) provides for the listener a feeling similar to that of a light on top of a lighthouse as it regularly turns in the night – a feeling of grounding…

this piece uses 17 tones in whole-numbered proportions to a virtual fundamental of G'' (25Hz).the piece is a kind of analysis of the overtone region from the fifth to seventh partials and the corresponding regions one and two octaves above (10th to 14th, 20th to 28th partials).the tones are played and recorded during the first three parts and played back as samples at specific times.as many as 28 tones may sound simultaneously.the flute sounds are amplified, which allows us to he…

"In case you're surprised to find a Tom Johnson album on Wandelweiser – after all, I reckon there are more actual notes on Counting Keys than on the rest of the albums released on the über-redux label put together – it's worth remembering that Tom Johnson and Wandelweiser prime mover Antoine Beuger know and greatly respect each other's work. This collection of four pieces spanning nearly three decades of Johnson's career is one of the composer's more accessible (though no less ri…

"Beethoven’s fifth symphony begins with that now-iconic but aphoristic “short-short-short-long” musical motive about which so much has beenwritten and said, a radical statement for string melody without harmonic accompaniment. On his 2008 composition “Song 2,” for bass flute, Wandelweiser composer Anastassis Philippakopoulos essentializes the very concept of a similarly constructed four-note phrase, presenting each gesture in isolation, long silences allowing for listener recont…
