Noise And Fury (Noise Music Festival June 15-17, 2000)
2001 release ** "HXA from Chelyabinsk was formed in 1987 by Lev Gutovsky, a graduate of Ural State Conservatory. His ensemble was arguably the only professional musical act in the USSR dedicated to creating music for absurdist theatre and postmodernist happening. By the end of the 1990’s, HXA shrunk to a trio of Lev Gutovsky (voice, electronics), Sergey Belov (trombone, electronics) and Olga Leonova (voices) increasingly focused on modern improvised and electro-acoustic music. Lev Gutovsky is cu…
Cross & Satellite Station
2010 release ** "Verdure is Donovan Quinn, who resides in Walnut Creek, deep in the East Bay of San Francisco. He's performed his songs with the Sky green Leopards (collaborating with Glenn Donaldson) and can currently be found performing solo, occasionally being joined by various friends and collaborators under the umbrella of the 13th Month. His Verdure alias draws influence from heavy collaboration with the Jewelled Antler Collective, that loose-fitting West Coast group of artists known for b…
Deep Komis
2010 release ** ""«Deep Komis» by Vazhes, the project of Russian anthropologist and documentary director Sergey Gabbasov, is dedicated to authentic ethnic music of the Permian Komis. This album was made with Rapoon, Northaunt and Fanum. It dips into the hidden and secret world of ancient and primordial nature, of secret and mysterious rituals. On the fanciful turnings of the forest path we will meet authentic ethno music of the Permian Komis, Nordic ambient, ethno-industrial, dub. Interweaving l…
Emiszyn
2005 release ** "Emiter Arszyn is a duo of musicians searching for new sounds. The musicians improvise electroacoustic, spatial sound structures, they do not shy away from trance post noise improvisation or post rock moodiness. The dialogues of drums and guitar are embellished with electronic and electroacoustic explorations. The upcoming album will contain, next to electroacoustic improvisation or electronic preparations, a dynamic improvised groove, computer noise next to guitar melodies, ever…
Kc
2010 release ** "The Shipwreck Bag Show are Roberto Bertacchini (Starfuckers, Sinistri) and Xabier Iriondo. Survivors in the ocean of pop, refugees in a land without time with their suitcases full of metal, wood and electronic circuits. Avant-garage-rock with no time nor borders."
Prace Z Obrazkiem
2006 release ** ""The album contains a selection of pieces I have been working on over the last 4 years. The key is the titular "work with an image", i.e., apart from exceptions that must be found, I drew my themes from outside the territory of music. What I mean here is that the direct pretext for creating the piece was not so much the desire to consider some musical possibility or to face a technical problem, but rather a fascination with an external object: a film, a person, a view. Most of t…
Wild Songs
2012 release ** "Estasy is the project of Emiliano Maggi, an Italian singer/songwriter who has spent the last couple of years releasing low-key CD-Rs and collaborating with artists and filmmakers in Rome. A lot of the time his live performances with other artists, well-documented on YouTube, are set to spooky visuals, and in those that aren't Maggi wears quite frightening masks. Sure, quite a bit of that does sound like the sort of standard gimmickry rife in 2012, but there's something about Emi…
Good Night To The Bucket
2004 release ** "With their experimental tendencies increased beyond measure, Vedda Tribe's sound is now more electronic, cryptic and eclectic: if the intellectual adherence to the most cerebral King Crimson is still important, the psychedelic and neoclassical ambitions of their debut are largely left by the wayside or in any case widely camouflaged in a sonic chaos of cold synths with technological and space-like features, by bassist Mauro Pamiro... The musical discourse of "Good Night To The B…
Through The Looking Glass
LP version. Comes in a Stoughton "Tip-On" jacket; Includes printed inner sleeves. Palto Flats & WRWTFWW Records are ecstatic to announce the highly-anticipated reissue of Japanese percussionist Midori Takada's sought after and timeless ambient / minimal album "Through The Looking Glass", originally released in 1983 by RCA Japan. Considered a Holy Grail of Japanese music by many, "Through The Looking Glass" is Midori Takada’s first solo endeavor, a captivating four-song suite capturing her deep q…
Lightnings Over Crimson Hill
2005 release ** Dark folk in the style of the Death In June albums "The world that summer" and "Wall of sacrifice".
Lime
2010 release ** "Mugstar's third album (and second on Important Records) maintains the power and heaviness of the sonic assaults laid out in their previous releases while extending musical maneuvers and textures into new territories. Sunburnt Impedance Machine moves through driving riff passages with soaring guitars and a voice recalling touches of early Pink Floyd before locking into a repetitive keyboard and drum driven outro. Serra is an extended voyage through a shimmering Krautrock landscap…
Luca Mosca - Pianoforte
1989 release (RARE) ** Contemporary Italian music for piano by: Arduino Gottardo, Bruno Cerchio, Nicloas Bacri, Elisabetta Brusa, Alessandro Lucchetti, Paolo Ugoletti, Riccardo Riccardi, Luca Mosca.
Frogs
2005 release ** "“The Frogs” is our most recent project. It is the second installment in the “Fauna” series coming step after “…for electronics and birds” (to be released in May 2003 by Stateart records). As it says in the title this album is dedicated to the frogs and represent our collaboration with singer Victoria Hanna. We met Victoria, amazing vocal artist from Jerusalem, a couple of years ago and from the very first time it was obvious for us that we'll do something together. We played sev…
Rome Hills
2010 release ** "This project originates from a pleasurable Roman afternoon spent by yours truly with Hubert Bergmann, who – having known that this writer’s spouse is, in essence, an atypical songwriting specimen – thought that some experimentation using her vocalism would have constituted an intriguing attempt to do something singular. Files of Bergmann’s duets with Udo Schindler were emailed, and in a matter of several months Yellerwood recorded and “assembled” a number of parts, adapting them…
Music From Hi-Fi Sessions
2005 release ** Improvised music sessions, made using 4 custom turntables, edit scratched vinyls played in forced locked grooves, hand made phonograph, microphone, delay pedal, environmental feedback, mixer. Recording and mastering on PC. All Tracks sounds exactly as it was recorded.
Not April In Paris - Live From Banlieues Blues
2004 release ** "Founded by Village Voice icon Greg Tate and co-led with Dayton Ohio monster bassist Jared Michael Nickerson since 1999, Burnt Sugar the Arkestra Chamber is a sprawling band of musicians whose prodigious personnel allows them to freely juggle a wide swath of the experimental soul-jazz-hip hop spectrum. Burnt Sugar was originally conceived as a forum for the New York area improvisational musician to compose, record and perform material which reflects the breadth and depth of Ameri…

Cone Of Silence
2002 release ** Spanish electro with minimal rhythms and psychedelic ambient structures.
Striving For The Lazy Perfection + Singles
2005 release (RARE) ** Extended album with five bonus tracks from singles and demo sessions. "When indie pop fans speak of the fabled Sarah label and its roster, it seems that the Orchids are rarely afforded the same hushed, reverential tones received by the likes of the Field Mice or Heavenly, which is a great shame -- the Orchids were one of the finest bands Sarah ever produced, and their masterpiece Striving for the Lazy Perfection is as good as anything in the label's storied catalog. Encomp…
