Living in the present is an album built around the work of American minimalist poet, Robert Lax (1915-2000) who is widely praised for his artistic concept of reduction, in which a pause becomes as important as the things said.

"I discovered Alireza through Markus Stockhausen, then I eventually published an album of the duo, Hamdelaneh, plus one in trio with Lino Capra Vaccina. I was struck by Alireza’s absolute virtuosity, never an end in itself, his impressive musicality, his ability to listen to sounds and silences. His music, like his approach to santoor, is truly revolutionary, personal, spiritual, innovative and yet... for those who, like me, love the immense heritage of traditional Persian music, perceive its ro…

"South of the Border is the third installment of my Cassette Memories album series. All field recordings were taped in Mexico, a country I've had a special fondness for since I was a little child. My first memory was watching photographs and Super-8 films my father shot in Mexico City from his time there during the 1968 Summer Olympics, where he competed as a member of the Japanese national hockey team. It made me realize there is a place completely different from Japan, and I started dreaming a…

Grief, anger, stillness are not flaws here—they belong. Featuring harp and saxophone by Róisín and Cathal Berkeley. A return to truth. To be human without the mask. Integrated, not performed or bypassed. "May we all live freely, knowing that all is well— ever was, ever will be. Not by ignoring what’s here, …

2025 repress. For five decades, Harold Budd stood on the forefront of the West Coast avant-garde. Born in Los Angeles, he studied with Schoenberg-pupil Gerald Strang and began teaching at CalArts in 1970. While searching for his own voice, he was influenced as much by abstract expressionist painters as by John Cage and Morton Feldman. In his work, Budd brought delicate, slowing-moving melodies to the foreground – creating a new musical language based on “eternally pretty music” and smooth surfac…
