2010 release ** "Bolognesi has expanded her group this time out - featuring a core group of bass, drums, trombone, saxophones and percussion surrounded by other performers on various saxes, flutes, clarinets and trumpet, to form an 11-piece ensemble. This "open-ness" opens up a wide range of sounds and colors that is centered by Bolognesi's vibrant yet substantial bass tones. […] The result is a cohesive whole that displays Bolognesi's surprisingly mature writing that combines traditional with …

2005 release ** "Brasil and the Gallowbrothers Band is the new, second project by the collective after One Inch of Shadow - Dominic Savio, Mirt - musicians known for numerous productions released under the banners of various labels, including the Cat Sun they founded.

The Shame Of Being A Child
2005 release ** "Looking up Jesus of Nazareth's "The Shame of Being a Child", I found it oddly classified as grindcore. I suppose some of the music has a disposition in common with such freaked out 'cyber grind' bands as Agoraphobic Nosebleed, but here guitars (usually the focus of the genre) are completely absent, replaced with excess distortion on the monkey-simple drum programming and numerous forboding samples and electronic sounds which come at the listener in a rapid fire barrage, one af…
Jardim Elétrico - A Tribute To Os Mutantes
2007 release ** "The continuing impact of Os Mutantes' music as their work became more widely known outside Brazil is reflected in this enjoyable tribute compilation -- if, as with all such tributes, nothing quite compares to hearing the original versions, it's the feeling of celebration which such a collection can produce which justifies it, so long as the performances work in their own right. The bands range from all over the map, from some long-lived legends in their own right to up-and-come…
Chain of Events
2010 release ** "The cd Chain of Events is a collection of nine pieces composed by Lars Bröndum.

The Escape Of The Electrified Dermatologist Epitomises His Dissent With The Compromising Juxtaposition Of The Smell And The Sound Of A Pair Of Wings Injured In Subdued Romance
2006 release ** "DSM’s music world appears as the intricate but finest tapestry of microscopic sounds, sophisticated packing of voids with sonic hallucinations, textural interactions and layering effects. Mostly sourced from the ordinary life, sounds changed beyond any recognition, the endless flow of electroacoustic treatments and studio engineering. This album includes collaborations with some finest sound-artists over there, and must be attended as the most diversified one. It contains track…
Early Years
2011 release ** "Live recordings from Syntjuntan’s first two years. Music especially composed for textile accessories. The music is tangled with lace and long stitches, embroidered with electronic sounds, square waves and curled noise. Syntjuntan is an ensemble of female composers, musicians and instrument builders. Our purpose is to meet women’s curiosity about technology and electronics, to encourage them to build instruments by themselves and otherwise facilitating their own experimentation.…
Musica Porosa
2004 release ** "The second CD, "Musica Porosa" features Karlheinz Stockhausen's son, Markus Stockhausen, now one of the most famous European jazz trumpeters, along with the talented clarinetist Tara Bouman. The seven sections that give life to the composition "Porosity" seek a trait d'union between the serial music of Stockhausen senior and the chamber jazz of the Ecm brand, especially in the fifth and sixth sections."
3ree
2007 release ** "Tanake is unexpected music, hearth lungs sweat (even brain but kept in a hidden place), is music mentally physic, is music physically mental, is twilight at dawn, bitter honey, fresh decomposition, joy in crying. tanake is music generated by her 3ree sweethearts... In the early days [by the way: in the first album "tsu.zu.ku" (2000) tanake meant to reach structure by means of improvisation, but time left the songwriter soul all alone, and tanake's been surrounded by the never en…
Le Temps Fou - Musique du Film de Marcel Camus
In September 1968, Marion Brown, who moved to Europe two years earlier, recorded the soundtrack of the movie by Marcel Camus entitled 'Le Temps Fou' in the legendary Parisian studio Davout. The movie starring Nino Ferrer was released in 1970 under the title 'Un Été Sauvage'. Soon fallen into oblivion, 'Le Temps Fou' was printed in very few copies by the French arm of Polydor and is almost impossible to find in its original pressing. Finally, more than fifty years later, Le Tres Jazz Club has bro…

Straws (LP)
At long last, after remaining out of print for decades, the Milan based imprint, Dialogo, dives into the legendary catalog of Cramps, bringing forth the first ever vinyl reissue of Steve Lacy’s LP, "Straws", issued as the sixth instalment of the label’s DIVerso series in 1977. Truly singular in the legendary American saxophonist’s discography - featuring stunning solo excursions and dialogs with himself - it remains one of the great documents of 1970s improvisation, and is as engrossing, creativ…
Essays On Radio: Can I Have 2 Minutes Of Your Time?
2005 release ** "Compiled by @c's Miguel Carvalhais, Essays on Radio: Can I Have 2 Minutes of Your Time? brings together 39 artists from the experimental electronica scene, paying tribute to or drawing inspiration from the oldest electronic media. Each piece is exactly 120 seconds, which creates a rather frantic pace; the listener soon loses track of whose contribution will play next and the music turns into a nearly uninterrupted continuum of juxtaposed sonic statements. The artists touch base…
Burnt Memories
2006 release ** "Fourth album from the Italian Neofolk 'n' Pop / Darkwave act Thelema. On "Burnt Memories" there are still traces of the past dark atmospheres from their early works. The new album is enriched with gothic / rock sounds as well as industrial influences and a good dose of new pop / folk attitude. 12 Impressive ballads stand for the best and most essential album by Thelema to date. Reminds of Spiritual Front in places. Digipak with booklet. "
Liberation Music Orchestra
*2023 stock* "The arrangements by Carla Bley are miracles of dynamics, rising and falling in volume and velocity and the awe-inspiring balance of collective ensembles improvising freely through swellings and contractions of individual voices entering and leaving the mysterious swirling circle of simultaneous songs as diverse as the number of performers yet never lacking in the kind of transporting telepathic unity that makes this multiplicity of musical lines such a far cry from the chaos of the…
Rakhilim
2003 release ** "One of the first albums by mysterious extravagant darkwave project [2003], that sounds somewhere between melancholic psychosis and a child’s play - like a bizarre orchestra from an alien world, charming with multidimensional electronic magic, exotic ethereal vocals, positively hypnotizing layout, yet maintaining an esoteric charge that lurks deeper, delving into caballa and magic of numbers, hidden under macabre jolly mask, equally inspired by 80-ies flavored electronic avantga…
