Ein schwärzeres Schwarz
The two tracks featured here are a further development from the Die letzte Musik vor dem Krieg 7" (DS70) using the new work with piano sounds and it's one of the best works of Organum yet in our opinion. Edition of 500.
Nubes, Cometas, Rumores Y Orugas
2005 release ** "First official CD album of Rafael Flores who hails from the depth of Spanish noise underground scene, known for his early works released under Comando Bruno moniker. This compilation presents the latest decade of his sound experimentation, and shows quite diverse sides of his creative efforts, which ranges from collaged field recordings to noise ambient loops, from rhythmic structures to hypnotic electronic passages."
Fogh Depot
2015 release ** Fogh Depot is not just a collaboration between three musicians weaving a cozy melancholic cocoon in the midst of a looming, cold, unwelcoming metropolis of Moscow. It’s a creativity lab where complex cryptoanarchic ideas rigidify in the viscously flowing Phrygian mode, while the simple and naive piano melodies sweep the listener right back to childhood. Fogh Depot’s debut album contains eight stories told by different people in different places. "Anticyclone" feels like a massive…
Fatanarchy On Airtube
2006 release ** Brainmelting collaboration by Yamatsuka Eye (Boredoms, etc) and Andy Bolus! Proudly co-released with Nottingham's Harbinger label. Performed, mixed & designed between 1994 to 2004, this is as weird & confusing as it can get. Includes jaw-dropping takes on "Eye of the Tiger " and The Exploited's "Sex and violence".
All That May Do My Rhyme
2017 release ** "His mind may be fried, but Roky's vocal talents are relatively intact on this mid-1990s effort, which turns out be one of his more subdued, folkier outings. (About half of the tracks, however, are actually remixes of sessions from the mid-'80s.) Roky's most excessive traits are mostly absent; he sounds sort of like an eccentric, updated Buddy Holly. It's the kind of roots rock that may well please the more open-minded fans of, for instance, John Fogerty or Van Morrison, although…
Mechanical Sound Orchestra
1995 release ** "Matt Heckert has been working as a performance and sound artist since 1978. In the 80"s he worked as one of the directors of Survival Research Laboratories building robots and designing soundtracks for the performances and for film. In 1989 he began working on the Mechanical Sound Orchestra, a group of computer controlled mechanical sound instruments. He has presented this in the USA and in Europe since that time, working solo and in collaboration with others."
Worlds Beyond Words
1989 release ** "It is one of the finest of Zusaan Kali Fasteau's albums from a solo perspective, she contributes very characteristic cosmic tones on sanza, soprano, vocals, piano, ney, shakuhachi, kaval, mizmar and berimbau. She is most notably and effectively joined by the great Rashied Ali on drums, Bob Cunningham on contrabass, Elizabeth Panzer, harp, James C. Jamison, guitar, David Cornick, percussion, and Paul Leake on tabla. The group members come in and out as needed, with Kali being the…
Composition No. 62: Compilation IV (Quasi-Concerto For Clarinet(s), Improvisers, Jazz Ensemble, Chamber Orchestra & Electronics)
2005 release ** "As a composer, Fell applies serialism with an enthusiasm and relish which hasn't been heard since the advent of minimalism, when it was declared a dead dog. In Fell's work this dead dog proceeds to gnaw at accepted practice and compositional cliché with a rabid intensity that many listeners find shocking. The challenge is to get modern compositions played with the emotional commitment and trenchancy of jazz, and in this Fell excels; by going right into the complexitudes of Stock…
Face The Wound
2001 release ** "The birth of Face the Wound was a difficult one and listening to it can be uneasy, too. The follow-up to (or more precisely the second part of) Z'EV's Heads & Tales CD, it was begun in 1995, completed in 1998, and finally released in 2001. The artist's mother was diagnosed with cancer and died during the writing process. The concept underpinning each of the 19 tracks is pain, both individual and collective. The title Face the Wound refers to Z'EV's belief that many of our modern…
The Passing Gods
1993 release ** Featuring: Vidna Obmana, Kapotte Muziek, Asmus Tietchens, Das Synthetische Mischgewebe, PBK, S.Core, Frank Dommert, Hesskhé Yadalanah, Chop Shop, Brume, Hybryds, Temps Perdu?.

Tsoupaki), 'Concerto For Oboe And Chamber Ensemble' (D. del Puerto) - Machiko Takahasi (fl.), Ernest Rombout (ob.), Mark Dijcks, Ria Kleinjan (cl.), Jonathan Reeder, Stefanie Liedtke (bsn.), Fokke van Heel, Guillermo Zarzo (h.), Peter van Dinther (tp.), Willie Verdievel (tb.), Jan van der Sanden (tu.), Mifune Tsuji, Izumi Okubo, Paul Hendriks (vl), Susan Bierre (vla), Tadashi Tanaka (cel.), Thom d…
Black & Beautiful, Soul & Madness
2009 release ** The original 1968 studio recording of Black & Beautiful, Soul & Madness by Amiri Baraka & The Spirit House Movers is finally available. "After 40 years of constant chatter and occasionally a snippet heard by some radio DJ who had a copy, this record has for most people been something that they heard about but never heard. 'Beautiful Black Women' was both a love song and an anthem coming to us in the midst of the fire that was the '60s. 'Madness' was always my favorite because it …
Chanson
2019 release ** "Rippling piano lines fill the air, once again rethinking the possibly of what contemporary Italian music is and was."
Sadness And Life
2006 release ** "A weird and wonderful mix of spoken word,strange eerie sounds, avant rock and modern composition. It's such an eclectic mixture of theatrical ramblings and verse that it turns into a strange aural journey with each disparate section weaving into the next. Its getting a 'pretentious' suggestion from elements of the office and the band do admit its 'open to ridicule' but let's keep our judgmental hats in the drawer and appreciate this for all its innovation and bravery."
Nachschriften / Ländler
Nachschriften: A set of 26 short pieces that cycle through all the major and minor tonalities, Nachschriften are a series of reflections and variations on themes - sometimes, variations on variations. For the most part they are simple dances - minuets, mazurkas, waltzes and ländler. Ländler: The references, the paying of homage to Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Mahler, Wolf and Zemlinsky are so obvious as to hardly need comment. They are heard through lenses polished by a later, more red…

1996 release (RARE) **
Music conceived and performed by Hon ShonTim Wilson: Chinese and Westem Flutes, Saxophone, MelodicaSimon Hiu: Double Bass, Ghatam, Ocarina, PercussionLung Heung Wing: Vibrophone and Percussion
Cloud Voices
2015 release ** "A three part improvised work for viola, trombone, electric guitar and double bass from, respectively, Ernesto Rodrigues, Eduardo Chagas, Abdul Moimeme, and Joao Madeira, an ascending conversation that uses innuendo, mystery, subtle movement, silence and swells to create atmospheric environments, each "voice" shifting enigmatically in sublimely hazy ways."
