Manifestations In The Shadow Of An Uncertain Land
Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land unfolds through aleatoric composition and intuitive process, shaped by deeply entangled political and aesthetic lineages.

Working with voice and modular electronics, Lowe treats sound as a sculptural and cinematic force, informe…

Jazz In Britain '68-'69
*2026 repress* John Surman's Jazz in Britain '68-'69 is an overview disc of his '60s band and one of the more enjoyable vintage British jazz records.
