"I was already familiar with Pascal Niggenkemper's work as a result of the release, Klippe by Thomas Heberer, early this summer and a superb trio with Robin Verheyen and Tyshawn Sorey, PN Trio. So this was always going to be an exciting adventure to see what his new trio would put forth. And the new album, Upcoming Hurricane, pretty much says it all. This is a heavy storm of sound that comes on quietly but resonates brightly over 60+ minutes. Clean, open and improvised, Niggenkemper is a brillia…

Pogus presents Well I Fell in Love With the Eye at the Bottom of the Well by id m theft able. Idm says: "The initial idea for "Well I Fell in Love with the Eye at the Bottom of the Well" was actually to attempt to make a doo wop song with that as the title. I kept adding more and more ideas and those ideas blossomed into other ideas to the extent that there's only the faintest hint of that initial doo wop impulse on the album but a whole other sort of garden grew up around it and through it. It …
In early 1967, John Coltrane died. Christian Vander was twenty years old, living in something close to poverty in Paris, and Coltrane's death pulled the ground from under him. He went to Italy, to Milan and Turin, and spent nearly two years in a state of deliberate self-destruction. One morning in Turin he woke up and decided to stop. He returned to Paris, met bassist Laurent Thibault, and began working on something that had no name yet.
By 1969 Magma existed as a group. By 1970 they had a contr…
Cindy Lee is the brainchild of singer / guitarist Patrick Flegel. While some may know Flegel from their time spent in Canadian experimental indie band Women, Cindy Lee has spent the past four years crafting songs that push and pull in opposing directions – from tales of tragedy laced with haywire distortion to moments of breathtaking beauty.
On Malenkost, Flegel combines everything that makes Cindy Lee so essential: heart-wrenching romantic pleas, rough shards of noise and twilit ballads. Featur…

On The Gloria, D.D.D.D. channels Heretic/Erotic noise from the cold north into a focused burst of post‑industrial intensity. Conceived as a special tape for XXI Congresso Post Industriale, it distills Desire, Devotion, Dedication and Discipline into a sharp, ritual object: glossy black shell, stark white print, and sound built to scorch in real time.
*2026 repress* Joao Gilberto's self titled third album, is the fruit of the collaboration between Gilberto and the great composer and arranger Antonio Carlos Jobim and Walter Wanderley and his ensemble. This is one of the greatest pieces of work in the field of Brazilian music.

On Trio, Lowell Davidson explodes the piano tradition from the inside out, trading clustered storms, sudden lyric breaks and pregnant silence with Gary Peacock and Milford Graves in a one‑off 1965 session that still feels dangerously new.

However, Satori appeared a year later and forever changed the way the group would be perceived, both in Japan and in the musical world at large. Possessing the vision to select Akira "Joe" Yamanaka as their vocalist, the Flower Travellin' boys elevated themselves above other Japanese bands of the…
