The Bern Project presents six new compositions that Chatham recorded in Bern together with Swiss musicians Julian Sartorius (drums), Mago Flueck (electric bass) and Beat Unternhrer (trombone). The best parts of many hours of recordings were mixed, edited and complemented by Hinterzimmer's Reto Mder and became some kind of the first Rhys Chatham album with band since 1987s Die Donnergötter...
The second album of Zakrocki & Olak is even better than the first one. The reason is simple: it is recorded with Agustí Fernández, whose inside piano effects enrich the general sound of the ensemble.

The City of Gardens is an album that is a natural consequence of the artistic initiative "Contemporary Sonus", initiated by RGG in 2015. It is an idea, within which a completely new musical story was created, composed and dedicated to performers with a specific approach to improvisation. Artistic agreement and a friendly bond between the members of the quintet was a key deciding factor of the character and emotional charge, flowing directly from the creation of sound. The Contemporary Sonus of o…
"Torben Snekkestad and Barry Guy first worked together on 2015’s impressive Slip, Slide and Collide - that recording, with its labyrinthine improvisations and near-feverish eruptions, proved the duo to be fiercely attuned to one another. Now, on Louisiana Variations, another voice is drawn into the fold - that of Spanish pianist Agustí Fernández, a long-time collaborator with Barry Guy and an excellent composer/improviser in his own right. On this release, the trio lose none of the intensity pre…

Rolling through life, an open mind like an ocean, an infinite ride that comes furiously crashing to a halt. This is Whitney K’s ‘Two Years’, a deep dive into the Canadian songwriter’s journey through vulnerability, change and ultimately letting his guard down. Whitney K is the wandering stalwart Konner Whitney, a Whitehorse Yukon resident who has spent time in Vancouver, Montreal, Burnaby and Los Angeles. We met the character in 2016 through his intoxicating 4-track recorded manifesto ‘Goodnight…

8mm Records’ latest - Gate’s "Winter Songs" - gathers three long form works of hazy fuzzed out guitar drones from the The Dead C’s Michael Morley, that amount to engrossing meditative expanses at the borders of ambient music, minimalism, and stoner rock. Inward looking and delicate, while bubbling with fury and life, it stands among our absolute favorite releases from one of the most interesting artists working today, and rides high among the best albums of the year so far.
LP version. 180 gram, yellow vinyl; gatefold sleeve with full movie gallery, obi strip, video store stickers. WRWTFWW Records announce the official reissue of Richard Band's soundtrack for horror fantasy classic Troll (1986).

At the center of the magnum opus lies the incredible "Cantos…

Originally slated for release on RCA/IT (Italy) in '78, the album was
later rejected due to recording deadlines, release schedules, and

years later, Floret Silva did end up surfacing on…
Following their mystical, dark and haunting self titled debut album on Utech Records (home of Aluk Todolo, Horseback, Final, Skullflower, Runhild Gammelsaeter, James Plotkin...), Ural Umbo return with their follow-up release, an even more dense, forward-thinking, nebulous post doom record. An organic and hypnotic mixture of lurking electro-acoustics, atmospheric black metal approaches, epic drones, slowly evolving melodies, doom mantras and an overall psychedelic atmosphere.

.....kasi naigo is a sound study of Ingmar Bergman’s Tystnaden (The Silence) and the silence of the Other...the object itself is a compression of an impossible space through the trituration of a gesture-the infinite as a question... A singular blast of air interchanged with a hollow, crackly static drone are almost constant through this, disc, and they serve to create an eerie, lonely, wide-open silence... This disc is expansive, tense, terrifying and subtle (Boss Sambosa, The Montreal Mirror).
Los Angeles guitarist Peter Kolovos’ last release was the epic 3xLP Black Colors. While not quite as immense, A Wolf Should Only Be Lone, Kolovos' first cassette release since his days with Open City, hits the beautiful red space in fits and starts. These two tracks carry his distinct style of annihilating common notions of guitar playing. Bruce Russell once likened his playing to “Derek Bailey covering The Resident’s Duck Stab,” while David Keenan has described him as having the "dexterity of B…
