Foundation
Tip! "Foundation" contains remastered and re-worked versions of the Amon first CD "Amon" (1996) and of the ultra-rare "Mer" CDr (2000 - originally printed in less than 200 copies). Wondering why Amon is widely considered a dark ambient legend? This double CD will show you why... You'll find no deeper nor darker ambient anywhere else."I think I can see them now: people in the immediate future, reviewing this double set just after it's out and writing down dark ambient as if it was the most proper…
Nona
Tip! *CD version* "Nona" takes inspiration from a case of xenoglossy - the ability to speak in an unlearned and unheard foreign language, often associated with past-life recall, states of trance or hypnosis and mediumship - discovered in Great Britain around the early Thirties when a woman in state of trance expressed herself in a language which was recognized as ancient egyptian. This voice from the past was called "Nona" or "The One Without a Name". The music has obviously much in common with …
Erich Kleinschuster 6tet – Feat. Joe Henderson & Dusko Goykovich – ORF / 1968-70
Erich Kleinschuster’s projects and initiatives played a vital role in establishing a spiritual home for jazz in Vienna. The founding of his sextet in 1966 and, in 1968, a jazz department at the Vienna Conservatory, were catalysts for a scene that attracted international stars as well as nurturing the careers of home-grown virtuosos. Many jazz exiles, admired in Europe as they never were in the United States, settled for long periods, carving out new lives on the continent. The recordings in this…

Living Torch
Super Tip! 2023 repress. Living Torch, through its unique structural form and harmonic material, is a bold continuation of Kali Malone’s demanding and exciting body of work, while opening new perspectives and increasing the emotional potential of the music tenfold. As such, Living Torch is a major new piece by the composer and adds a significant milestone to an already fascinating repertoire. Departing from the pipe organ that Malone’s music is most notable for, Living Torch features a complex e…
Prayer
I think it's important and proper to play Steve Lacy's music today and that we have to take the risk. Keeping his example alive means to me every time to question the results achieved. My relationship with his music is not occasional. Steve is present in three tracks of my first album "trochus". Later I played his music alone and in various groups. I would like to remember at least the Fish Horn Quartet, with Fabio Martini, Jean Jaques Avenel and John Betsch, the sextet 5or6 Bones with Sebi Tram…

Gris-Gris
2022 repress, green vinyl. "1968 debut album from the king of the psychedelic bayou -- the hypnotic, mystical and powerful sound of the swamp coming to life. As he became Dr. John (real name Mac Rebennack), it was his LA session work with musicians like Sonny & Cher, Canned Heat, and Zappa that allowed him to start conjuring up his visions of guitar psych-pop to walk alongside his authentic New Orleans upbringing. While Gris Gris contains moments that make it a type stamped symbol of its era, it…
20 Jazz Funk Greats
**Limited edition. Comes with 8 page 12" booklet and digital copy with additional audio** Originally released in 1979, 20 Jazz Funk Greats is Throbbing Gristle's pop-influenced masterwork. It's hard to believe the beautiful, conventionally-attractive Cosey Fanni Tutti on this album's front cover previously gave herself milk and blood enemas in front of a live audience. Additionally, the song "Hot On The Heels Of Love" is far removed from the dissonant nihilism of the previous TG albums. It's a s…

Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide
"Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide" is an immersive, languid realm, filled with elegant, poetic beauty, that bristle with unknown elements and the lingering potential of danger. Andrea Marutti and Carlo Giordani have created an album that simultaneously drowns the ear and fortifies it with breaths of fresh air. A remarkably sensitive reminder of the creative potentialities that rest at the heart of electroacoustic, concrete, and field recording based musics, doubling as a vision of their …
Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide (MiniCDr 3")
"This aquatic collaboration between these two italian artists (the ambient master and the field recordist) is the first part of a large body of work that will be fully released sooner or later..." - Jean-Marc Boucher"[...] Large chunks of field recordings are processed and, together with those who still have a more natural feeling, combined into a large, twenty-two-minute soundscape of drips, splashes and the uber-drone of what sounds like a submarine engine humming in the back. It is something …
