Retrospektywny (Retrospective)
Akuphone presents a compilation of Wladyslaw Komendarek, the Polish genius of synthesizers. This selection comes from tree albums released between 1987 and 1990, a very important political and social period in Poland, marked by the last convulsions of communism. Komendarek’s music offers a unique patchwork of synthesizer sounds, “art of noise” and cosmic flights far beyond the realm of conventions that dominated the Polish electronic music scene at the time. It brings a weird mixture of electron…
For Burdened and Bright Light
A-Sun Amissa's new work builds on the foundations of previous record Ceremony in the Stillness (2018), incorporating some of the heavier, distorted, guitar oriented themes but this time fuses them with broken, crumbling electronic beats and primal drone movements.
Mythologies
** 300 copies ** "Very ponderously, I approach the review stage of this box-fresh drone-log by Masaya Ozaki and Kaito Nakahori, and it’s the release that’s made me sit up and think the most in now my 209th site article. There are intriguing sounds dotted and masked all over it, like the strange scrapes of Entropy that seem to mirror the dredging of a beer barrel. Has the liquid of life dried up already? Surely not…if you’ve ever heard Catalog Des Arbres on the Touch label you’ll be familiar with…
Cucoma Combo
Cucoma Combo. Above all, the new boiling energy of pan-rhythmic music, the awakening dance of joy, the experimental space for ambitious arrangements and free-improvised parts of colorful horns. From Black Africa to South America, we travel on paths of Congolese soukuss and Amazonian carimbò, between accents of Colombian cumbia, kalimba vibes and tribal voices. We find seeded traces of space-funk and afrobeat, with amazing acid keyboards and an enchanting female voice. The power of rhythm and in …
Live At Nancy Jazz Pulsations
It was in 1973, on the 14th of October, late in the afternoon; on a pretty Sunday under the Big Top in the heart of the “Parc de la Pépinière”, in Nancy; it was the “premiere”, the world first hearing, and it has so far remained the only one commissioned by composer and trumpet player lvan Jullien, for the first international Nancy Jazz Pulsations festival.In order to complete this work of composition and orchestration, Ivan asked the great Eddie Louiss on organ, and chose to do without a double…

As with the first SchleiBen series, Emotional Response follows the
success of the second set of split releases with a stand-alone album by
one of the highlights, in Neil Tolliday. Recorded over a 17-year period,
the ambient, drone and noise pieces collected here offer a glimpse in

musical mind. As his love for house music and the success of his Nail
moniker grew and waned during the ascent 90s boom, there followed his …

Inspired by structural film and early electronic music he makes audiovisual installations, expanded cinema performances and music releases.

Muldrew
**500 copies, DMM Pressing** Like many Canadians, Joseph Shabason and Ben Gunning like to untangle themselves from urbanity and disappear up north a few times a year. Unlike other cottage-goers, Ben and Joseph don’t while away the ur-time on jet-skis and lounge on docks reading pulpy mysteries. Instead, they bring a car full of synths, drum machines, saxophones, guitars, samplers, effects, and recording equipment to jam the days away in a cabin-fever inducing haze of wood smoke, cedar musk, hot …

Idys Jivz
"I’ve listened to it daytime and nightime, in Tokyo’s prefectural train lines, through crowded street, through empty ones. Sitting on the pavement in front of a kombini, drinking a canned high-ball. Partially on the plane, amidst opaque clouds. Partially at the shrine, within dry wood, and humid mountains. Here, in Japan, days end earlier, and the diurnal heat lasts a little longer, to dissolve less brutally into the night. Both aesthetically and musically speaking, it makes you wanna dance the …

Hitting #2 on Jazzman Records European Jazz 45s top 10 list, this is the finest fusion between f…
Snow Crash
Voodoo noise and poetry : what is sound, what is poetry? What is this reality and how are we perceiving it? This LP brings together two extreme and loud vocal performers digging and channeling invisible realities through electronically expanded proto languages.
