A Year In Minutes
A Year In Minutes is an artistic diary / audio calendar that contains a sound recording, a geographical location, and a photograph, artwork, or essay for each day of the year. Meant as a psychogeography—the study of the influence of geographical environment on the mind or behaviour, Aidan Baker invites you to reflect with him on the year 2024. Berlin-based Canadian multidisciplinary artist Aidan Baker (a.k.a. Nadja, Hypnodrone Ensemble, Tavare, etc.) presents a new monumental work in the form of…

Active in the Swedish jazz and improvisation scene since the 1970s, often heard on bass clarinet, Bothén travelled to Mali in 1971, eventually making his way to the Wassoulou region in the country’s south where he encountered the Donso n’goni, the sacred harp of the hunter caste of Wassoulou society.

Tip! Benjamin Bennett has worked as an improvising percussionist for 10 years, touring North America and Europe as a soloist, in various ensembles, and ad-hoc collaborations. He developed a unique approach to percussion which took the lineage of free-jazz, free-improvisation, Berlin reductionism, and extended technique playing as its foundation. In searching for an expanded sonic palette, and more fluid movement between various techniques, he distilled the drumset into a small collection of drum…
For Those Who Wish to Sing Will Always Find a Song
One night, not too long ago at Union Pool in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Ryan Sawyer introduced his piece, “For Those Who Wish to Sing, Will Always Find a Song.” He invited the audience to sing along at any point they felt moved to, “just abstract ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs,’ or ‘oms,’ or whatever.” The small stage was crowded with musicians – The Shaker Ensemble – which that night included Jessica Pavone on viola, Nate Wooley on trumpet, Laura Cocks on flute, Stuart Bogie on clarinet, cellist Lester St. Loui…
Ratio-Konditio
Original copies of this super rare single, comes in standard white cover. A fascinating glimpse into one of contemporary art's most intensive collaborations has emerged in the form of Arnulf Rainer & Dieter Roth's 'Ratio-Konditio gespräch', a rare 7" single that captures the raw creative dialogue between two titans of European avant-garde art. From 1973 to 1980, Swiss-German artist Dieter Roth (1930-1998) and Austrian abstract expressionist Arnulf Rainer (b. 1929) forged what would become one of…

A long standing …

split
From the enigmatic fringes of experimental sound comes an extraordinary split release between K/S/R and The Tulsa Ball Room Singers—a bold document of two singular live performances where music and moving image intertwine.
Beyond Antibiotics & Bad for Business
*100 copies limited edition* "Like the early work of fellow Midwestern experimentalists Raccoo-oo-oon, there's a calming franticness in the work of (D)(B)(H), an ever-changing group whose sound is constantly evolving. (D)(B)(H)'s "Bad For Business," captured live summer 2010, features a quartet taking the entire 21-minute side to sculpt a piece that rests somewhere between free jazz and non-idiomatic improv. The result is not unlike what the AACM captured in its 1966 'Little Suite' or what The B…

She works primarily with found audio and field recordings, creating careful compositions from a wide variety of disparate sources. Wobblement is an album featuring chaotic yet organized compositions crafted from heavily distorted voice, electric guitar, piano, sounds from the Warner Brothers sound library, and various field recordings taken at Midwestern points of interest.

The Suddering Years
*100 copies limited edition* G Lucas Crane returns with a huge slab of new sound work drawn from the last two years of vibrating sonic gristle and swollen sound jelly, producing the new righteous gibberish adjective of ‘suddering’. All things can now confidently sudder, and may god have mercy on us all. G Lucas warps, mashes, unspools, hacks, grinds and morphs his archive of cassettes and manipulated field recordings into a tapestry of lovecraftian horror-audio, where ghosts speak in machine lan…

Joy, Oh I Missed You
Lucy Duncombe and Feronia Wennborg compose a modern symphony for virtual choir on 'Joy, Oh I Missed You', muddling sound poetry with Nuno Canavarro and ‘Systemische'-style machine-damaged surrealism. It's mindbogglingly good, like a mashup of Lee Gamble's 'Models', Akira Rabelais' 'Spellewauerynsherde' and Robert Ashley's timeless 'Automatic Writing’ screwed to perfection in a mode that will also appeal if you’re into work by Kara-Lis Coverdale, Nozomu Matsumoto, Theo Burt, Olli Aarni, Sydney Sp…
Stenhjärta 2 (LP)
The second album from Stenhjärta follows up Gryning Kommer Röd (Grapefruit Records, 2024) and very much continues in the same vein while approaching a rather damn catchy pop song format at times. Fear not, Stenhjärta is still a group heavily rooted in the Swedish prog/folk tradition of the 70's, the 13 songs here just showcases a somewhat wider scope, the duo taking things a notch further with more elaborate songwriting and a whole slew of wonderful A-sides along the often damaged ride. Lyricall…
