Objekt 2
Volume 2 of the music of RUNE LINDBLAD (1923-1991). This cd consists of the remainder of the long out of print Radium double lp. These works cover the years 1962-1988. Lindblad, a Swede began composing music in 1953. Ignored by the musical establishment in Stockholm, Rune went his own merry way, composing over 200 works of electronic music. Limited in the early years to often primitive equipment, he carved out his own musical niche. The sounds were often raw, occasionally scary.
Unquenchable Fire
Joe McPhee's Unquenchable Fire, a work inspired by Rachel Pollack's award-winning novel of the same title, was commissioned by The Deep Listening Institute for the Deep Listening Band and premiered at Lincoln Center Out-of-Doors. The Deep Listening Band explores the sensual combination of musical sound combined with natural sound, as well as the sounds of daily life and one's own thoughts. One never knows what Pauline Oliveros will do next, but whatever it is, she is sure to go beyond boundaries…

Memory like water
The six (or seven) pieces on these CDs document live performance works which span 1996 to the present. Most of the solo pieces are structured improvisations, in that they have a broad form which is repeated from performance to performance while the detail is always quite different. The collaborative pieces are less formalized and depend hugely upon the input of my co-performers. I am very grateful to have worked with them. Conceived as two halves of a single piece, Resonate (noise) and Reson…
Tape play
The Ten Tape Compositions: Fat Millie's Lament, The Wasting of Lucrecetzia, For Harry, Lemon Drops, Dante's Joynte, Rerun, Mouthpiece II, Hiss, Few (in collaboration with Henri Chopin), and Kyrie. "Over his career, Kenneth Gaburo (1926-1993) produced a lot of electronic music. However, works for tape alone are fairly rare in his output. Over about a thirty-year period, ten works for solo tape were produced. Of the ten tape pieces, five were created in the mid-1960s at the University of Illinois,…

Harakiri For Seven Strings
1994 release ** 3" CD in slipcase housed in A5 package. ""Harakiri For Seven Strings" is a real thunder, because it uses only terrific guitar noise as the base of heavily distorted collages of collapsing brainwaves."
Death by Water
This is a four-handed musique concrète composition by electroacoustic Italian composers Fabio Selvafiorita and Valerio Tricoli. This single-track piece was conceived and realized between Milan and the Giudecca Island, in Venice, which is the location of the field recordings and reel-to-reel tape treatments. The work stresses and questions the dramatic and alchemical potential of a musical landscape marked by water: visceral and metaphysical at the same time, full of narrative suggestions. …

An Imitation of Life
Disquiet. Loss. Choice. The courage to venture onto a road. Choosing another one. And disquiet again, having ascertained that neither leads to new lands: the images which make up 'An Imitation of Life' convey all this to the observer, that is, the very act of seeing. The gaze of a 9 year old, roughly eight hours of footage, the grain of a VHS-C: archeological finding of the first childhood brainwaves, the 78 video stills contained in these pages and organized according to a random logic by the v…
The Middle East
*2025 repress* The second and last chapter of Dr Miller's journey between cultures and its uses, which began with "The Far East", dissected and looked into the root of the sound of distant Asia, continues with this new chapter dedicated instead to the countries bathed by the Mediterranean and contiguous to Central European history. From Spain to Arabic sounds, a new compendium that takes us back to other places and times, Dr Miller is once again able to dissect andencapsulate sounds and spices f…
Near And Far East
*2025 repress* Made with the intention of exploring and experiencing the various musical and cultural perspectives of a territory as vast as that of Persia, "Near And Far East" is a significant historical document that transcends the restrictive concept of territory but rather inhabits a space of absolute time. The album's content is not just window into faraway places, but a leap into the times and cultures that have now been swallowed up by the incessant movement of globalization and capitalis…
Experiences Musicales (II)
2CD set & a 32-page illustrated booklet with texts by Jean Dubuffet and Ilhan Mimaroglu in English & French. Noisy, pure, crazy, exuberant, yet also focused and inventive. Dubuffet creates an impression of Nrenetically playful improvisation, yet each piece has a strong concept, and even a form."The Musical Experiments of Jean Dubuffet, recorded in 1961, form a set of 20 pieces. They were released the same year as a box containing six 10” Vinyl-Records in an edition of 60 copies. In 1991 nine of …

"The three musicians seem to exchange and overlap tones, creating the feeling of a single and continuous arc extending, curving in space, a kind of bridge or thoroughfare outward." – Stuart Broomer (liner notes) Magda Mayas piano John Butcher tenor and soprano saxophones Tony Buck drums
One and Many Flutes
One and Many Flutes by Hannah Todt transforms steel tubes into a playful and subtly radical modular installation, offering airy, slow-motion explorations of sound through individually voiced mouth holes. The album foregrounds tactile resonance and fragmentation, inviting listeners into a sonic space akin to slow Japanese flute traditions, balancing minimalist freedom with community-driven performance practice.
Baroque Non Baroque #27815 (LP)
*110 copies limited edition. Includes repulsive cover photo and hand-stamped labels* ‘Nothing compares to you’ was about Peter Fengler and Sinéad was right! There’s no losers here, just the bare and brutal leftovers of a very long night or a really early morning. Is the sound your uncle Peter makes sexy or sexist? Is knocking on wood kinky or slapping the salami sufficient? Is it a Karlheinz with a Karlsquell or a Cage with a Cara? Or just tins for fears? Complex comparisons more zonked than the…
Haramand plane: three translation links
Pogus is very honored to be able to reissue this recording of works by the late Jerry Hunt (1943-1993), originally released on What Next? Having long been fascinated by Hunt's work, it is great to be able to have these last works of his available on CD once again. To quote Blue Gene Tyranny: In the 1970s electronic music practitioners constituted a rare and marginal population on the frontiers of interactive media and performance. Audio, with its modest bandwidth requirements, led video by at l…
Secluded in Jersey City
Well talk about your long gestations for a project. Secluded in Jersey City, by Secluded Bronte was recorded live on WFMU in November of 2002. And we spoke about releasing this on Pogus pretty quickly after that. So to take twelve years to release a CD is a pretty long time. But it was most certainly worth the wait. This trio features Jonathan and Adam Bohman with the added experimental irreverence of Richard Thomas. The Bohman Brothers are known for their unique live performances mixing theatre…
Silentium
Silentium is an electroacoustic piece based on sounds of bells and church organs that where recorded during a residency at gallery Školská 28 in Prague, in December 2015. The title was inspired by the “Silentium” signs that were regularly displayed in the churches where these recordings were made. Entering the temple requires the visitor to be quiet, to keep the noise down. This thoughtful silence is an intense and active condition essential for profound listening. It creates a liminal state bet…
