The Wild Joy
Uncompromised drone music to elevate your soul and flesh.
Midnight
Clarity, more often than not, is a lie, a red herring. Truer, it seems, are blurred images and misty conceptions. Music history as a whole is undecipherable. Zooming in may bring some sense of understanding but many lineages lie far beneath the surface, made of obscure stories and oblique connections, like the ones that tie Joan La Barbara, Meredith Monk, Robert Ashley & Jacqueline Humbert - a scrawny branch in the genealogical tree on which now sits Thelma Cappello. Its motto reads: “voice is a…

"On January 7, 2025 Southern …
How to Rescue Things
Restock due on February "Charlie Parker's first album with a string section landed in 1950, ten years after his debut recordings. Although the overtly lush arrangements of Charlie Parker with Strings were Parker's idea, the record must've been something of a relief to producer Norman Granz, especially when the sides went on to become Bird's best-seller, by a long shot. The record (and its follow-up) sparked something of a jazz-strings virus, infecting Nina Simone, Paul Desmond, Clifford Brown, a…

Guesswork
*250 copies limited edition* I don’t know how to describe myself as a musician, but I like to explore how sound events can create spatial arrangements in the mind and trigger proprioception… Or is it movement?

The album title describes my attempts to process disparate influences through semi-improvisational compo…

Counting To Ten Then Back Again
"I remember when at school on the last day of term, all the class would bring games in to play, but it always seemed that no one really knew the rules or could fathom out how to play some of them. However, a lot of the games had interesting artwork and fantastic layouts with all sorts of cards and paraphernalia, which I really enjoyed. Around the same time I received a magic set for Christmas. The packaging, images, type, colours on the box and instructions were wonderful. I would entertain memb…
