Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts (LP, Coloured)
Huge Tip! *White vinyl with obi strip* Twenty years into their singular journey, Valence-based trio France have become one of Europe's most hypnotic live forces - a hurdy-gurdy-powered engine generating waves of kraut, psych, folk and drone that blur the boundaries between physical experience and altered consciousness.

Wormhole
Kreng transports us through the swirling darkness and into the unknown with “Wormhole”, his first album in over a decade. What does a trip towards another world sound like? We’re about to find out.

This recording was made at Falmouth Arts Centre on the Steinway grand in the main gallery where my wife Kate had a show. Th…

Early Works
Bill Fontana investigates the physics of perception itself. Side A: tape collages where sound becomes both material and force. Side B: Wave Spiral for 5 Rin Gongs - a sidelong, 21-minute centerpiece where pure sine waves create interference patterns, frequency made sculptural. Sound spiraling through space, dissolving boundaries between observer and phenomenon.
Poulaine
When you’re creating something loosely referred to as “art” with another person, you’re mining the depths of minds and experience, searching connections with pasts, each of us producing from a different place. Communication exists as unspoken and simultaneous, more carnal than collaborative, and dwelling rather than saying. We all miss that, wrapped up fantasies of perfectness and lovesick doves. Youth, how fleeting and naive. "Created by commission for the University of California at Irvine as …
