Hubris
** 2026 Repress ** First released in 2016 and long out of print, Hubris has come to feel like a pivot in Oren Ambarchi’s catalogue - the moment when his fascination with groove, repetition and ensemble friction finally detonated into something both overwhelming and weirdly precise. This new edition gives that record the sonic treatment it always deserved. Working from the original mixes, mastering engineer Joe Talia revisits the album with what can only be called forensic care, teasing out layer…
Black Music. I maestri del Jazz

Da Duke Ellington ad Art Tatum, da Thelonious Monk a John Coltrane, da Sun Ra a Miles Davis, sono molti gli eroi che hanno indicato ai neroamericani la strada per diventare se stessi, qui splendidamente resi dal lirism…

Musica 109. Lezioni sulla Musica Sperimentale
Italian edition. "Music 109" prende il nome dall'aula della Wesleyan University dove Alvin Lucier ha insegnato per oltre quarant'anni. Il libro nasce da quelle lezioni, e ne conserva il tono: quello di un compositore che ti siede accanto e ti spiega, pezzo per pezzo, come funzionano le musiche più radicali del secondo Novecento americano. Nessun gergo accademico. Nessuna distanza critica. Solo la voce di qualcuno che c'era - che ha conosciuto John Cage, suonato con Robert Ashley, condiviso il pa…

He is best known for his work as a producer for artists such as U-Roy, Big Youth, Ken Boothe and Horace Andy and within short order Hudson brought his all-round talent to full fruition. In 1974, he produced two ground-breaking albums. "Pick A Dub" was one of the first official dub albums ever, and is still considered to be one of the greatest mom…
Sort of
*Limited edition of 500 copies.* In 1972, the left-wing intellectual film critic Uwe Nettelbeck suggested to Anthony Moore that he should write some (relatively speaking) straight songs. He took up the challenge, inviting his old school friend Peter Blegvad over to Hamburg to form the band Slapp Happy. They were joined for a session in Wümme by the young singer Dagmar Krause and Faust as their rhythm section; the recording became the album Sort Of. After getting the band back together for reunio…

Métaphysique Du Hit-Parade
I first encountered Pascal Comelade’s music thirty years ago—and nothing has sounded quite the same since. I was immediately captivated: he is an artist like no other, whose sincere and selfless love of music is always evident, especially in his tender reworkings of other people’s songs. Comelade seems to work like a watchmaker: meticulous, precise, and obsessive—yet always drifting into something dreamlike. His music opens hidden doors, telling strange and beguiling stories filled with obscurit…
