"German experimental electronic composer Asmus Tietchens isn't exactly the first person most people think of when they discuss synth pop. In fact, even among hardcore electronic music fans, he's more known for his longstanding dedication to academic electronic music in the spirit of Stockhausen and Pierre Henry, and in fact holds a position at the University of Hamburg. However, having also worked with Tangerine Dream's Peter Baumann, Conny Plank, Cluster, and Thomas Köner, he's had more than a …

Originally released in 1981 on Günter Körber’s Sky Records, Biotop marked a radical and irreverent turn in the early discography of Asmus Tietchens, offering a body of work that neither conformed to the pop idioms it mimicked nor fully abandoned the experimental rigor of the German electronic underground. Now rightly recognized as one of the most bizarre and subversive releases of the Neue Deutsche Welle era, Biotop channels ironic play, dissonant structures, and noisy artifice into a sonic worl…

1991 release ** "Luis de Pablo represents the first post war generation in Spain, a lawyer, his music has graced all the primary festivals of new music in Europe, not so much the USA,nothing at all. He writes incredibly for strings in any genre there, solo, duets or trios. These pieces are more colorful mixtures of winds percussion,piano and strings and reveals a certain surface playfulness, an affinity for the dance gesture I think. The Notturnino has a kind of wispy arid flush of colours, ongo…

Compiling the results of what was originally intended to be a compositional collaboration between John Duncan and renowned sound artist Asmus Tietchens, Da Sich Die Machtgier… transcends its tumultuous creation to stand as a distinctive addition to the catalogue of both artists "Asmus Tietchens proposed that he and I work together years ago — many years ago. For a variety of reasons it didn't happen , and at this point I don't remember any of them. Finally we agreed to start: I asked him to send…

As "Sleep" begins there is a suggestion made, a hypnotic motion meant only to seduce the mind into the belief that Darren Tate and Colin Potter are intent on relaxing muscle and slowing brain activity to a crawl. The hum of electronics blows easily until random sounds—coughing, restlessness, twisting and turning—bolt through the still waters of the track. Slowly developing melodic themes, almost too distant to piece together, stretch from their slumber and begin a slow crawl through the lamp-lit…

Emblematic of the anxiety that the group manages to build, sound on sound, with meticulous cruelty, is the first album, More Violence And Geography (Complacency, 1988 - Die Stadt, 2002), contemporary to the cassette Fifteen (Complacency, 1988).

** CD edition** The Salt Garden 3 is the final word, and the concluding instalment to the critically lauded The Salt Garden Trilogy. This third installment brings the series to a close on an unexpectedly uplifting note, as Clodagh Simonds' ensemble transform their signature haunting and meditative hymnals into joyous, light-filled ones.  Much like its predecessor, however, The Salt Garden III has also been released in an expanded edition with some bonus remixes.  In this case, however, the remix…

The first collaboration by these two renowned sound artists. Fabrication saw its beginning during the production of Re-post-refabricated, a project in which artists were selected by Richard Chartier to rework/create new works from his 1998 CD Postfabricated for its reissue in 2003. As it was intended as an open project, Asmus Tietchens continued to explore the source materials and suggested further formal collaboration. This evolved into the collaborative work Fabrication. The CD comes in a full…

Los Angeles bass titan Henry Franklin is bestknown for the two Skipper LPs issued by Black Jazz in 1972-74; 1977’s Tribal Dance is more obscure and arguably the best of the bunch, the spiritual jazz given an extra propulsive dimension via the excesses of Sonship, banging complex rhythms on his elaborate self-made drums, as heard on the opening title track and the extended ‘Cosmos Dwellers.’ Elsewhere, ‘Eric’s Tune’ has flamenco undercurrents, ‘Spring Song’ is a slow piano meditation, and ‘Prime …

Complete rendition of the saxophonist’s famed divinely inspired suite was recorded at Seattle’s Penthouse in 1965. Despite being John Coltrane’s most celebrated album, and one of the most beloved jazz albums of all time, A Love Supreme wasn’t a record that the saxophonist touched on much in the live setting. Up until now, most Coltrane enthusiasts have only ever heard a single live performance of the literally divinely inspired four-movement suite that makes up the LP. That will change in Octobe…

2012 release ** "Dutch duo’s one and only release, from 2012.  And quite a good album too! Henk Bakker (bass clarinet and electronic treatments) and Jelmer Cnossen (percussion, Ableton Live) somehow created a subterrestrial sonorous organism with a logic of its own. "

1991 release **

The music of Panzer Constellations was the result of a single occasion - by the invitation of After Action Review - to record a duo of soprano saxophones for the wonderful acoustics available at the former Heeresbekleidungsamt, Bernau - now an expansive abandoned building.

Louie Rice and Luciano Maggiore work together as NO PA ON, performing score based works - both acoustic (without a PA system) and amplified (with a PA system). The duo was originally conceived to perform works by other artists as part of an event series at Cafe OTO in London. This series acted as a research period that went on to inform the action-based pieces that Rice and Maggiore are now writing themselves. These pieces explore physical actions and vocalisations in response to pre defined pro…

2008 release ** "A truly International sound project between China, Sweden and Australia. Proving that experimental music is very much acultural.

2011 release ** "Behind the name Revglow hides a very Italian duo formed by the Friulian Francis M. Gri (of All My Faith Lost) and the Milanese singer Lilium. The collaboration has already produced the album Liquid Pearls in 2008 and an EP in 2011 that preceded the album 9th Chrysalis. The Revglow chrysalis hides nine delicate butterflies, ready to take flight. Nine pieces halfway between ambient and electroacoustic, soft, surreal. So simple and linear that they disorientate. A river of notes th…

1988 release. Ade, "a piece about farewell" for seven actors, singers and dancers, is a work of musical theatre by Harald Weiss, here heard without the stage. Weiss brings together elements of classical music, folk, rock and minimal music in the style that runs through all his work and escapes any classification. The ten scenes (Heimkehr, Tagtraum im Verborgenen, Elegie, Springtanz, Hymne, Tanz der Kobolde, Arie, Die Rufe der Demaskierten, Lamento, Abgesang) move between solo and choral voices, …

Extremely intense Arabic dub noise music, designed to blow minds and loudspeakers. Remastered 2021 reissue with new artwork, originally released in 1997 on Soleilmoon. First time on vinyl!

*In process of stocking* It takes several different record labels just to release the incredible amount of material Bryn Jones recorded in his lifetime. This disc was recorded in 1998, some tracks are "pure" Muslimgauze and some are re-mixs of tracks from Systemwide's "Sirius" cd (see also Systemwide meets Muslimgauze "at the City of the Dead" 12").  Nearly all of the tracks have hand percussion in varying tempos and intensities and at least 1/2 make use of electronic noise surges.  The sound is…

Wicked, soul-jazz album from the mid 70s with touches of 60s pop / psychedelia! First ever reissue of this privately-pressed obscurity.

Leaving behind their folk based trilogy, Mohammad return to their own original material. Heavy and concentrated, majestic and dark, ethereal and subtle, Pèkisyon Funebri marks a new era in Mohammad’s existence, unfolding earthly murmurs and ghostly chants over their distinctive seismic diapasons. An exhilarating procession through highly charged sonic plateaus, from the burning core to the silent skies.

2008 release ** Limited edition of 100 copies in oversized sleeve. "The music of DsorDNE (aka Marco Milanesio) is conceptual electronic.
