The geographers
"It's a generalisation, but Sylvia Hallett scrapes and Clive Bell blows. Bell specialises in reed or pipe instruments from exotic locations, principally South East Asia. Hallett bought a saw for £2.49, mounted a bicycle wheel on a spindle and also plays the more frequently-sighted viola. Bell studied the shakuhachi flute in Tokyo, then lived in Thailand, where he familiarised himself with the brittle vibrations of the khene reed-pipes. This was the beginning of his love for blown instruments tha…
Separately & Together
"Given the number of musicians involved listeners will be surprised at the coherence and delicacy of much of the music here. As is so often, the pieces mainly consist of 'conductions' wherein one musician directs the orchestra, giving an overall form and structure to each piece - at least, that is the intention. So, Philipp Wachsmann's On the point of influence closes with a long restrained duo for cello and bass, while Ashley Wales' Study for Oppy Wood is an atmospheric tone poem.
In addition t…
Images
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* Colin Andrew Sheffield's "Images" was entirely constructed from heavily edited and manipulated samples from jazz records. These eight electroacoustic mosaics range in style from lush ambient loops to jarring tones like the wails of the damned. Chopped drum solos appear and retreat along with spiraling piano fragments; saxophone and trumpet scraps clash or fall in time with disfigured bass rumblings, etcetera. These song-length explorations are detailed, atmosphe…

The Good, The Bad And The Ugly/Il Buono, Il Brutto E Il Cattivo
Directed by Sergio Leone, “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” is the final chapter in the legendary “Dollars Trilogy” and one of the most iconic films in cinema history. Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, and Eli Wallach form an unforgettable triangle set against the backdrop of a grim, dusty, and almost surreal American Civil War. The film is epic, lyrical, and grotesque all at once—but what elevates it to true legend is the immortal soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. The legendary main theme is one of th…
Toni Esposito (Rosso Napoletano) LP
An exquisite artifact from the 1970s Italian scene, this vinyl reissue of Toni Esposito’s remarkable and overlooked 1974 untitled debut LP, also referred to as “Rosso Napoletano”, resonates with astonishing polyrhythms and genre-defying tonal innovations, seamlessly blending the ecstatic with fluid jazz, progressive rock, and experimental elements. A true revelation rescued from the depths of obscurity by a visionary artist who worked with everyone from Luciano Cilio to Don Cherry, it can’t be m…
7 Volte 7
The film 7 Times 7, directed by Michele Lupo in 1968, is a brilliant comedy with heist movie overtones, crafted in a very British style but with a strong Italian identity. The international cast (including Gastone Moschin, Lionel Stander, and Raimondo Vianello) plays a group of inmates who break out of prison solely to rob the Bank of England... and then comfortably return to their cells, using prison as the perfect alibi. In this lighthearted and clever setting, the soundtrack by Armando Trovaj…

Big shadow Montana
"After producing their frozen trilogy of intoxicated dronemuzik for the Agency, these Scandinavian gentlemen have ventured into more absurdist territories through fictionalized soundtracks for imagined Mondo films and science fiction serials. It is in this context that BJ Nilsen & Stilluppsteypa present the apparitional Big Shadow Montana, an album of slow-motion delirium manifested in occluded smears, nocturnal gasps, and arcane tones from a variety of analogue synthesizers. Amidst the n…
