Rome Hills
2010 release ** "This project originates from a pleasurable Roman afternoon spent by yours truly with Hubert Bergmann, who – having known that this writer’s spouse is, in essence, an atypical songwriting specimen – thought that some experimentation using her vocalism would have constituted an intriguing attempt to do something singular. Files of Bergmann’s duets with Udo Schindler were emailed, and in a matter of several months Yellerwood recorded and “assembled” a number of parts, adapting them…
Stereo Drive
2025 stock 180g virgin vinyl limited edition - the complete LP + 2 bonus track. The only album ever reuniting pianist Cecil Taylor and saxophonist John Coltrane, Stereo Drive was released in 1959. Taylor wanted to use Ted Curson on trumpet, but the recording company insisted on using Kenny Dorham. Relations between Taylor, who favoured a very avant-garde approach, and Dorham, who verbally disapproved of Taylor's "way-out" tendencies, were strained, and the session is a unique tour the force.

Recorded during three sessions in Oslo in 1968, Bleak House marks Rypdal’s departure from the psychedelic group The Dream as he ventured into new musi…

Sampler and Zither
2017 release ** "Sampler and Zither is a release from Difondo, the Cagliari duo of Sergio Camedda (sampler) and Giampaolo Campus (zither). The group’s name translates as “basically;” it’s a fitting name given their conceptual focus on returning sounds to the things themselves—that is, to the basic elements and materials of their instruments. The group’s specific interest lies in realizing the possibilities inherent in the divergent natures of the two instruments’ timbral profiles and properties.…
Love / Action A B C E (2LP Bundle)
Returning with some serious fire for their first batch of releases in 2025, Alga Marghen newly launched Formalibera, dedicated to free improvisation, drops two absolutely mind-blowing, limited-edition LPs, drawing upon never before issued recordings by Tordenskjolds Soldater and The Contemporary Jazz Quintet, two of the most important groups working in Copenhagen's bristling context of avant-garde jazz at the end of the 1960 and early 1970s.

Odyssey Of Iska
The winds of change were blowing through Wayne Shorter’s life and career in 1970. The saxophonist had just left Miles Davis’ group and was soon to form his collective fusion band Weather Report.

Mise En Abîme
2014 release ** "On his second octet release, Mise en Abime, Lehman continues his pioneering amalgamation of spectral harmony and jazz improvisation. Lehman’s music is that rare thing: experimental and avant-garde but also accessible. There’s a lot of academic information which flows beneath Lehman’s musical productions, but in simplified form, he composes microtonal music with ample harmonic movement. This is a unique kind of fusion, where a chord based on a harmonic spectrum can be easily modu…
Actual Music
1996 release ** "Actual Music Now is the first recording in eighteen years by Dave Pavkovic and Tatsu Aoki. Their partnership is rooted in the myriad possibilities of a particular time and place, but there’s nothing rehashed about it.

The grave vibes, considered interplay, and elemental rhythms conjured here are spontaneous expressions of an encounter lived fully in the moment. While both men are …
