How Do I Know If My Cat Likes Me
Inspired by minimalistic icon La Monte Young and guitarist Allan Holdsworth, Nightclouds is a powerful collection of jazz pieces for solo pipe organ.

The People United Will Never Be Defeated
2011 release ** "During the 1970s, the inspiring pianist Ursula Oppens commissioned Rzewski to write a set of variations that she would perform at Carnegie Hall together with Beethoven's Diabelli Variations. The result was a masterpiece of 20th century Romanticism, continuing the clear line from Beethoven through Brahms that faltered with the deaths of McDowell, Medtner, and Rachmaninov in the first half of the 20th century. Rzewski takes a catchy tune, a Chilean protest song, and pulls it apart…

Unfall
In an 'ecological' process of recovery and reuse of musical materials and obsolete electronics, 'Unfall' (German for “accident”) lays its research focus on the encounter between improvised music, electroacoustics, free jazz, dixieland, and minimalism, filtered and recomposed through techniques typical of musique concrète. Referencing Burroughs' cut-ups and methods derived from tape music, 'Unfall' experiments with intertextuality, establishing a dialogue between seemingly distant musical languag…
Gérard Grisey. Vortex Temporum
The first-ever vinyl release of Gérard Grisey’s Vortex Temporum (to our knowledge). Movements I and II appear as a single track to preserve their spectral continuity. The LP features cover art by Dariia Kuzmych and comes with a zine of her ballpoint drawings, merging time and human tissue.

Discours III + VI / Toucher / Voix Instrumentalisee / Accord
1992 release **Vinko Globokar (born 7 July 1934) is a French-Slovenian avant-garde composer and trombonist. Globokar's work is noted for its use of unconventional and extended techniques, closely allying him to contemporaries Salvatore Sciarrino and Helmut Lachenmann. His music places great emphasis on spontaneity and creativity, and, unlike the work of Sciarrino and Lachenmann, often requires improvisation. His extensive output is largely unknown outside of experimental music circles. As a trom…

Autumn Rhythms (New Flute Music)
1996 release ** "The works on this recording are recently composed flute pieces by six distinguished senior American composers from the generation born in the fist quarter of the 20th century (1900-1926). All of the works have been written by these composers at age 65 or older - autumn rhythms and all represent a new departure for each. Four of the works are for the one keyed wooden baroque flute - the flute for which Bach and Mozart composed their flute music. The instrument is now enjoying a r…
