Altarwise

The second piece is an epic 46-minute composition of deep ambient/drone music tha…
Forgotten Gods
1993 release ** "With its rich blend of elemental rhythms, mutated voicings and expanded fourth world tribal spaces, Forgotten Gods succeeds admirably in the quest for an improvised spacemusic. Like jazz, you can listen to each of the players and consider their moment-to-moment artistic choices. Like avant-garde work it achieves something wholly new, yet it also manages to satisfy the tonal, rhythmic and textural demands common in other forms of polar music. That's not bad for starters, but unde…
Jack Ruby
2025 stock When Don Fleming was doing the initial transfers of the tapes we’d gotten retrieved from Randy Cohen’s barn, every evening seemed to bring a new surprise. But nothing was a bigger jawdropper than the material which makes up the second LP of our Jack Ruby archival series.
The central core of the album is the sixteen-and-a-half minute track, “Destroy/Lost”, recorded at the band’s rehearsal space in January ’74. Robin Hall vocalizes and Boris plays electric viola, but the bulk of the pie…

Fans For Fans
*200 copies limited edition* A 'monolithic' experiment in extremely minimal non-music constructed in two long parts. If the first part is dominated by a background based on a single sound rich in harmonics that oscillates on its own wave-like vibrations, resting on a substrate of what can be at the same time a synthetic pink noise or the real 'capture' of a natural quasi-silence, in the second part a few sounds of a more overtly electric/electronic matrix, a tangle of faint high-pitched looped e…

Azimuth
Azimuth is the first full-length collaboration from Tyresta (aka Chicago-based Nick Turner) and cellist Simon McCorry (Gloucestershire, UK), featuring a quintet of impressionistic arrangements that combine swells of harmonic guitar with delicately composed strings and accents of modular synth.
