CD version. Innersleeve with liner notes and lyrics, as well as photos.

Catch-Wave 97
First release of this 1997 performance featuring Takehisa Kosugi performing an updated version of his seminal “catch-wave” for solo violin & electronics (the original recording of which has become something of a perennial around here) ...comes as a double-wide jewel case (love these - haven’t seen one in eons !!!) containing a fat 32-page booklet of ocean-photos (not dis-similar to the closing frames of the Taj Mahal Traveller’s “on tour” film actually) & a booklet with new liners (in japanese &…

Urban And Tribal Portraits
At the beginning of the 1980’s the composer Roberto Musci returned to Italy after a decade wondering the globe - drifting between African, Indian, and the Near & Far East, studying music, making field recordings, and collecting instruments. In 1984 this journey was culminated by the release of his first album, The Loa Of Music, a sonic distillation and near perfect encapsulation of the democratic hybridity at the heart of the Italian avant-garde. It remains one of the most important and thrillin…
One Man Sessions Volume 2 // Unprepared Piano
After the oneiric journey through synthesizers on Volume 1, entitled Synthesis (2018), Massimo Martellotta (founding member of Calibro 35) returns with the second volume of One Man Sessions

excellence: the piano. The instrument is at the center of the scene, and
the prepared piano in the manner of John Cage is here
decontextualized and freely "In/Prepared" and reinvented in a very
personal way, placing objects of common use o…

Riti, Magie Nere e Segrete Orge nel Trecento

An Electric Storm
**2008 remasterd LP reissue, few copies in stock** When White Noise’s debut album, An Electric Storm, landed on Island Records in 1969, it must have sounded like nothing else. Packaged in a striking black and white sleeve that pictured a spark of lightning streaking across a black sky, this was an album that - quite rightly as it turned out - resembled as much a scientific experiment as any conventional musical document.White Noise were first conceived when American electronic engineer David Vor…
