Ablution
2006 release ** "A collaborative one-track mini-cd from US Tidal (aka David Brownstead, ex-666 Volt Battery Noise, and currently involved in the militan zionist project Barzel) and Dutch Peter Duimelinks (known for his activity in THU20, Kapotte Muziek and Goem), clothed in two splendid photos by Alluvial's own Kevin Wienke. The work is inspired by the Jewish purification ritual, but as the cd gives no further information about that I will stick to the music - which by the way is excellent. "Abl…
Autumn Testament
2007 release ** "Comprised of Brad Rose (The North Sea) and Keith Wood (Hush Arbors), The Golden Oaks features road show magicians springing forth candles from wooded sanctuaries. Composed via the postal system, Autumn Testament is a hymn to the season of red, gold, and orange. A canopyn of leaves shelters the proceedings from the fog that threatens to obscure these sounds. This is a glorious combination of organic grace, blessed by the forests of past centuries and those still in their infant s…

2006 release ** “Un Pranzo Favoloso" has been recorded live on 26th May 2005 at Auditorium Concordia in Pordenone (Italy) during the "Schermo Sonoro - Cinemazero" festival. In this incredible concert Lee Ranaldo, Alan Licht, Tim Barnes and Ulrich Krieger played on Stan Brakhage experimental movies; the band explores the concept of soundtrack and creates something new out of it, a "sonic continuum" between music and the movies, in which Stan Brackage's images become sounds. The result is amazing.…

Lanterner
2011 release ** "The debut release from Lanterner was recorded in a scummy practice pit and a high end media arts research institute. Borrowing the keys, late at night, this release was culled from live sessions, practice sessions, late night overdubs and mistakes. A quickly fastened mic in a practice space to carefully mic’d headphones in a cardboard box - techniques chosen for mood gold not textbooks. These songs Throb and Drift with a Lean Tension and pulsing, dreamt, attempt at escape(s), du…
Octante
2005 release ** Limited edition of 200 copies. "The Iberian trio of Fages, Barberan and Costa Monteiro have been working together in Barcelona for long enough now to have developed a distinct language of tension, scraped metallic dynamics and a rough, textural abrasiveness. A trio with a great, off-kilter and unexpected instrumentation (there can’t be many acoustic turntable/ engines, trumpet and accordion trios kicking about Barcelona – although it’s a while since I’ve been there) they build lo…
Overdeveloped pigeons
2011 release ** Limited to 200 copies. "Alessandra Rombolá (flutes and objects) and Michel Doneda (soprano and sopranino saxophones, radio, objects) set off to discover rare birds whose breath provides the momentum: plaintive, expressive, even vocal birds, or more common game which, if it doesn't play the overdeveloped braggart a bit, is all the more forgotten. In place of songs, which follow one another, it seems, according to the artificial development of the said species (from fragments of pi…
Guo1
2017 release ** "GUO is the duo of guitarist and singer Daniel Blumberg (Hebronix, The Howling Hex) and saxophonist Seymour Wright. Both use heavy distortion and extreme amplification which is later processed and manipulated with metal cassettes to create a multi-layered, lacquered object of sinister, fizzing, metallic beauty. GUO1 with text by David Toop, was the beginning of an on-going series of releases that include etchings made by the duo and a piece of ekphrasis from a creative writer res…
IIN
2012 release ** "Darius Ciuta, Lithuanian architect, sound artist, born 1966, is an artist that definitely can not be pigeonholed for the marketing purposes of narrative and aesthetic unidrectional coherence, although if you stand between and shuffle through his work you will find a labyrinth of communicating vessels. His works explore continuously new alphabets spectrums, building an intricate vocabulary of frequencies and densities as translations and transformations (exchange between sound a…

Are You an Orchid or a Dandelion?
2019 release ** "Here’s a duo called Cyanobacteria, consisting of Francesco Gregoretti (drums) and Renato Gricco (double bass), teaming up one day in September 2016 with Carl Ludwig Hübsch, a well-known improviser playing the tuba. The duo has a similar background, even if I only heard of Gregoretti before. The five tracks span fifty-two minutes and form an on-going exploration of ideas, textures and all of that within the world of improvisation. It is a meeting of like-minded people, with one f…

2009 release ** Limited edition of 100 hand-numbered copies.
