Six Guitars
As with this week's excellent Ateleia & Benjamin Curtis LP, this beautiful Table Of The Elements LP comes on single-sided clear vinyl with a Savage Pencil etching on the flip. It's just as good as its counterpart too: as suggested by the title, the s…
Baghdad Batterie
Table of the Elements continues to celebrate its 15th anniversary with the second installment in its Guitar Series. On 'Baghdad Batterie', Ateleia and Benjamin Curtis fuse splendidly, as perfectly synchronized audio alchemists, and when they dip thei…
Same Places (Slow Version)
Wafting, vaporously, from the suffocating heat of New Orleans, Belong shimmers like a mirage: vaguely discernable, yet always at the edge of an unobtainable horizon. Collaborators Mike Jones and Turk Dietrich employ a singular and remarkably inscruta…
Strung
Table of the Elements continues to celebrate its 15th anniversary with the third installment in its Guitar Series Vols. 3 & 4. Peripatetic composer, performer, improviser, and designer Jon Mueller is a busy guy, and both the rock and experimental mus…
La Nuit Electrique
Marcia Bassett (Double Leopards, Hototogisu) rears Zaimph's vile head once again on La Nuit Electrique. A raspy, delicate instrumental passage begins like a crippled music box. Elegant and soporose. Blackened guitar and amplification apprise the rest…
Nysa
Nysa represents a compendium of turbulence and singularities. The sound for drunken states on mythic mountains. A studio reshaping of several live performances with custom computer programs, gestural input devices, and circuit-bent electronics. It wa…
Aphotic Leech
Aphotic Leech is the first movement in a series of ever changing modes which make up what Half Makeshift has slowly become. A bath of heavy drone and bitter piano chords strewn over top of subtle glitch work and manipulated percussion, Aphotic Leech …
Schwarzhagel
Klangmutationen are an mystery. More could be said about what their music isn't than what it is. Hailing from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, the underground experimentalists pierce the veils of Eastern and Western music. Recalling early sets on FMP as well …

MILLESUONI. DELEUZE, GUATTARI E LA MUSICA ELETTRONICA

Imitation of Life / Double Indemnity
Two classic Y records reissued on the Unheard Music Series; hardcore improvised music by Beresford (Slits, Premiere U.K. Jounalisto), Honsinger (cellist extraordinaire), Toop (experimental Genius/author) & Kondo (Japanese improv legend). Originally r…
Memory & Money
With a lineup of five turntablists, cello, sampler, and vocals and led by avant genius Otomo Yoshihide, this is not your average group. In fact, this strange blend of over-the-top plunderphonics at times sounds as dense and chaotic as some of John Os…
1968
You know how sometimes people try so hard that they do not wish their early moments to be seen nor heard? Such is the case with Gérard Manset and his first recordings which, as it were, represent some of the best psychedelic chansons in existence and…
The Vilnius Explosion

Visions of Doing
Pierre Bastien is well known for his orchestra of musically gifted robots. Driven by electric motors, the machines deliver stuttering rhythmic loops. These unsteady tempos constantly fluctuate, imbuing the songs with an emotional and honest quality n…
The Ancient Balance to Control Death
Tetuzi Akiyama's contribution to the portrait series, The Ancient Balance to Control Death is a departure in a career of departures. In addition to Akiyama's trademark improvised, blues-infused, guitar work, the ep features intense multi-layered voca…
