Several Years Later
People Skills - the long running project of Philadelphia's Jesse Dewlow - has spent close to two decades tuned to that lower, stranger frequency, and Several Years Later may be the fullest transmission he has yet let out of the room. Since the mid 2000s, Dewlow has worked at the seam where a song comes apart into weather. Repetitive guitar figures, idle tape phenomena, sound residue, voices sunk far beneath the surface - materials gathered under the sign of his Heresy Museum and set loose in sha…
Sunrise - Live In Ypsilanti 1977
Wewantsounds presents the first official release of a legendary 1977 concert, capturing Don Cherry, Collin Walcott and Leon Thomas in their only documented performance together, joined for part of the night by the rest of Oregon. Long circulating among a few Cherry fans, Sunrise is a hypnotic forerunner to Codona, newly remastered, with Moki Cherry artwork and new liner notes by Jason Weiss.

Issue 140 (Magazine + CD)
The new issue of Electronic Sound dives into the world of tape music – from Pierre Schaeffer and Delia Derbyshire to today's sharpest loopers – and comes bundled with an exclusive Steve Reich CD, Tape Pieces, pairing his mid-'60s phasing landmarks Come Out and It's Gonna Rain across some 30 minutes.

Dubby loops and howling static drift into a scrap-metal Dixieland haze, with word-molecule track titles by poet Dagmara Kraus.
Baquet Wheel
Kyoto trio Kukangendai return on Marionette with Baquet Wheel, five tracks of purely acoustic minimalism recorded live through Taku Unami’s binaural microphone. Through collage-like repetition the band fold jazz, krautrock, blues and Tuareg into one unified, timeless rhythm – primitive, precise, and impossible to place in time.
