Incredible Bosnian field recordings from the early 60s and orchestral work by Folke Rabe
Nisse Sandström Group
Stellar Tip! Previously unreleased recordings of one of Sweden's most legendary jazz groups. A raucous and energic set of free jazz from the vibrant Swedish scene of the mid '60s – a perfect match for the groundbreaking German scene of the FMP generation! Quoting Jim O'Rourke from the hype sticker: “Someone quadruple booked the same session, because the music on this record is at the crossroads where FMP, Faust, The Insect Trust, and Catherine Ribiero met, but we know that road was never built. …
Spirit Of Ecstasy / The Way To Nepal
2024 Stock. 180 gram vinyl + extensive booklet. Reissue of this rare 1980 LP which features two avant-garde masterworks from Swedish composer/artist, Ake Hodell. "Spirit of Ecstasy (Racing Car Opera)," composed in 1977, is a bizarre experiment in "non-music," and an amazingly weird opera that tells the story of the first half of the 20th Century through that powerful symbol, the automobile. It features a compelling story despite consisting mostly of the repetitive chanting of car names, and it d…
Organic Music Society
2024 Stock - quoting Dusted magazine "This is not a jazz album. This is the music of ritual. Any resemblance it has to jazz is purely coincidental and passing. This is the sound of utopia, of equality, of the universal egalitarian dream, of the earth, the water, and the life force in all its various guises." and "This is an album of education in practice. Don Cherry spent the summer of 1971 teaching at a youth music camp normally devoted to the study of classical music. Somewhere along the line,…
Live in Stockholm
2024 Stock. Don Cherry lived in Sweden 1965-1985. This is a live recording made in Stockholm 1968 (and some tracks from 1971) that was supposed to be released in the beginning of the 70's but that has never been released until now! Don Cherry plays together with the best Swedish (as well as Turkish) jazz musicians from that time. World jazz or Multi Kulti, Don Cherry didn't think in genres. At Caprice Records we are very happy and proud that we can now release this music, both on CD and LP for t…
Music in Crisis
Mega Tip! **Double vinyl with eight electronic music pieces, three of which are now on record for the first time.** Roberta Settels was an American composer and industrial designer. She studied composition at Juliard in New York, and during the 70-ties and 80-ties, composed electronic music in Stockholm at EMS, and in Paris at IRCAM, and studied with the composeres Pierre Boulez and Iannis Xenakis. Later she created her own studio. Isolation from 1985 is her only released recording. It was relea…
The Snake
Sweden's extraordinary drums-and-vocals duo Wildbirds & Peacedrums return with The Snake, the fierce follow-up to their intoxicating debut, Heartcore. Acclaimed as one of Time Out's Top Ten Albums of the Year (among other accolades, including an 8.0 from Pitchfork), Heartcore introduced vocalist Mariam Wallentin and her percussionist husband Andreas Werliin to the world outside their lively Gothenburg scene and wound up as one of 2008's hidden treasures. The pair has since toured extensively, th…
