Ellison
Ellison were a Montréal-based hard-rock/ heavy-blues band emerging from Québec’s late ’60s psychedelic scene.

In 1969, guitarist Christian Vaeillant and drummer Robert Cager joined forces with them, forming Ellison. Closely tied to l’Association des Orchestres—…
9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning

She has performed extensively, occasionally as an associate to the Schimpfluch-Gruppe of Swiss extreme aktionists.
It is a rarified violence that the Kemp invokes on her 9 Dreams In Erotic Mourning. Something disfigured. Something fucked. S…
Synths, Sax & Situationists (Music From The French Underground 1973-78)
France's near-revolution of May '68 kicked the country's small but vibrant counter-culture into overdrive and birthed a local underground music scene. The bands it spawned made music with far less rock purity than groups from the UK and US - their influences foregrounded improvisation, disjunction and genre-blending: Soft Machine, Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, free jazz and radical politics. The introduction of the synthesiser in the early 1970s added fuel to the fire. This six-track compilation inau…

Two of the latest releases from Tochnit Aleph - Daniel Löwenbruck's project, for three decades one of the most radical and consistent spaces in the international experimental landscape, now operating from Denmark - that share a common obsession: sound as act, as summons, as a gesture that the recording does not archive but transforms.
