*2024 Stock* "Les chercheurs de sons" have left the certainties of traditional lutherie behind them to explore the "terra incognita" of music. Invented instruments, musical machines, sculptures and sound installations: a long subtitle to reflect the…
"Each composition arises from a clear idea that the listener can grasp. That is their beauty, I’d argue – there’s no need for, or possibility of, any process of beautification. They are conceptual art in the broadest sense, but vividly concrete in th…
Latest LP for Darksmith of California on Second Sleep. Darksmith of California (Tom Darksmith) combines wilting electronics, floppy turntablism and sun-baked cassette protocols and destroys them in a claustrophobic void
*2024 Stock* Sounds Heard is not only a collection of writings intended for people who are interested or involved in contemporary music, especially those performers - including children - who lack a formal musical training. It also charts a wide cro…

Recorded at Omega Sound, January 1993. Special Thanks for H.Nagashima. Although there were not that many psychedelic rock bands made up of all females in the world of the 1980s, "Angel'in Heavy Syrup" was the rarity one emerging from the Japanese noi…

"Only ghosts don’t make footfalls (another Beckett title!) that we can hear, don’t need to open and close doors to effect passage. These men together are enacting over a longer duration a strong sense of life- as-lived. They are conspiring, not in th…
