Atmosfere N.1/2
Spellbinding Italian Library masterpiece (originally released as two separate LP in 1971), a near mythical recordings with holy grail status made by Riccardo A. Luciani (credited as David Hoyt Kimball due to contractual reasons) with the help of Luigi Malatesta (also known by the pseudonym Peymont). Another two tracks are composed by Serena Marega, an obscure female electronic musician active in the late 60s and early 70s, who played extensively with Teresa Rampazzi, and was a founding member …
Nice To Meet Miss Christine
Such an elusive British artist, Christine Harwood was sailing the sea of lone folk singers with a sole album of rare beauty. Released in 1970 on small british label Birth, Nice To Meet Miss Christine is still an exercise in pure beauty, a dramatic/magic affair that materialized into thin air and suddenly was gone. Featuring a who’s who of the british prog and psych-folk scene – the late King Crimson alumni Ian McDonald on sax and flute, drummer extraordinaire Pete York, Nucleus and Jody Grind …
Halling
Edition of 300. Some time ago, Lennart Heyndels sought refuge in modular synthesis after injury prevented him from playing the double bass. In 2019 he continued this research into the physics of sound in a small hut in Norway and came back with this album. Recorded at EMS Stockholm and realized during a residency in the Norwegian countryside, the title of the album refers to the Hallingdal region, as well as the local traditional dance 'Halling' (in which the main goal for the dancer is to kick …
Drama of Exile
Nico’s iconic post-Velvets return to rock! As one critic memorably put it, when Nico spoke it was like coffin-lids creaking. When she sang it was like listening to ravens taking off 13 at a time. Nico was like nothing rock music had ever seen or heard before or since. In Paris in the seven year gap between the recording of The End and the release of Drama Of Exile, Nico appeared to be doing little more than feeding a heavy heroin habit. When she met Aura Records founder Aaron Sixx after a gig th…

Contrebasses
Guy Pedersen, French jazz-soul-funk double-bass player extraordinaire, recorded Contrebasses in 1970 for Tele Music. It's one of the most outstanding -- yet puzzlingly slept-on -- releases in the library's catalogue. Forget library, this is basically a sublime, straight-up moody jazz record with monster breaks. It's brimming with sensational psychedelic/jazzy bass-heavy moments throughout. "Indian Pop Bass" contains a deep, abstract breakbeat that intersects with a bassline that loops as if it s…
At Wave Farm Plus
Tip! *2024 stock* All tracks except the "Plus" tracks were made using old sound fx radio carts that were saved from the garbage and gifted to me by my friend Mitchell Brown. Recorded during a 10 day residency at Wave Farm in Acra, NY, October 2018.

Miatsoom
* 32-page booklet featuring an essay by Peter Garland *Other Minds Records announces a new album from composer Charles Amirkhanian titled Miatsoom (mee-aht-soom) - a collection of pieces that draw on his Armenian heritage - central to the composer’s identity but until now unexplored in his discography. The centerpiece of the album is the 30-minute title track, “Miatsoom” which means “Reunion” in Armenian. A long form radio play of sorts, the work’s source material comes from recordings made dur…
Sonata for Unaccompanied Violin
Other Minds is excited and proud to bring you a near-unheard early composition by legendary American Maverick composer Lou Harrison, Sonata for Unaccompanied Violin (1936), performed by our friend Kate Stenberg. This short piece was written by the precocious composer when he was barely out of high school, still a teenager, but already a year deep into studies under Henry Cowell, studies that occurred during Cowell's stint in San Quentin State Prison.
The piece was entirely unheard from its comp…
Lexical Music
When Charles Amirkhanian’s Lexical Music was released on pioneering Bay Area record label 1750 Arch Records in 1980, it was heralded as a masterpiece of the then nascent text-sound poetry scene. The New York Times called Amirkhanian “expert at the sort of things his imitators do not do half so well as he.” Lexical Music is a sort of high water mark for American text-sound poetry; it sounds like nothing before or since.
Single words lose their meaning through repetition; nonsense phrases build in…
The Water Has Found its Crack
"Other Minds is happy to present The Water Has Found its Crack, the debut album by composer Joseph Bohigian. Consisting of four new works written since 2018, the collection finds the composer expertly handling a variety of performing forces, from laptop ensemble to string quartet. Each piece engages with a different aspect of the California-born composer’s position as a member of the Armenian diaspora. These include the legacy of displacement since the 1915 genocide, maintaining culture in exile…
Electronic Works 3
This disc brings the first CD and surround release of the quadrophonic work for analog tape 4 Butterflies, and Subotnick’s live remix/recomposition of the classic tape piece Until Spring as Until Spring: Revisited plus, on DVD only, A Sky of Cloudless Sulphur: Revisited. Until Spring was first conceived in 1975 on the Buchla synthesizer using only analog techniques. “It was about 10 years from Silver Apples to Until Spring,” Subotnick explains, “and I’d evolved a whole concept and a technique,…
The Great White Silence
As a soundtrack, The Great White Silence probably exceeded everyone's highest expectations, as it manages to be sublime and deeply emotionally resonant without ever becoming too forceful. In fact, it may very well be a masterpiece, though I won't know for certain until the film gets a US release. As a decontextualized album, it is a bit flawed solely because it has been removed from its intended purpose as part of a larger whole. There are a number of passages that I absolutely love, but they…
