Some Of Them Were Never Unprepared
'As a musician, I've been curious for many years of how collective musical practices can provide a sense of weightlessness, as well as how a focused interplay can blur the lines between musicians and sound sources and create reconfigurations of the relations between the two. I have also tried to explore these observations in depth in some of my composed music: during 2015-2017 I experimented with ways to surprise and destabilise myself in the solo format within the compositional framework of pol…
From my eyes to the sun
Moritariron a noise artist living in Kochi, became rirongg and completed his first work "From my eyes to the sun" in 2023. A train whistle rings out in the dark universe... What is it that I understand, understand, and remember? Comes with a novel (not artificial intelligence) by a mysterious author. Mandala Acoustic World All 5 songs included. It is a conceptual work that captures sound as a visual vision and evokes a kind of universe, nature, science, religion, and human beings, but he asserts…
Silberland Vol 2 - The Driving Side Of Kosmische Musik 1974-1984
Welcome to Silberland – where the streets are paved with strobes. Home to neon lights, straight lines and open roads, this futurist fantasy was ï¬rst founded in the mid-seventies, when Germany's creative class chose musical therapy in order to indulge their shared hallucination of a new Europe. Fuelled by the catalytic fusion of globalisation and new technology, the world was turning ever faster and the kosmische generation were ready to keep the pace. With synthesisers, rhythm computers and hu…
Planeta Lamma
200 copies. Though often compared to Frank Zappa, Moondog, Captain Beefheart, Sun Ra, Jandek, and Father Yod, Damiao Ferreira da Cruz, better known as Damiao Experiença, it's a truly unique outsider multi-instrumentalist (without any real capability to play any of the many instruments he uses) compulsive hoarder from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Reportedly born on September 27th, 1935 in Bahia, Damiao lived an unhappy childhood and ran away from home at the age of 10 to escape the mistreatment by his…

Gegenwelt
Gegenwelt (Parallel World) is the second LP by CEL, a duo Kubin and Zemler formed. More melodically-evolved than their eponymous 2020 debut, it is an even more explicit example of the syncretic impulse that impelled these guys to form the band. Their basic notion was to explore the juncture between two streams of German underground sounds -- the Motorik 4/4 rhythms first posited by Can's Jaki Liebezeit and Kraftwerk's Klaus Dinger, and the sequencer-driven brain loops of early, experimental pion…
With A Little Help From My Friends
Super Tip! 200 copies, coloured vinyl. 1968 was a crucial year for Volker Kriegel's career, as he released "With A Little Help From My Friends," his first solo album, and signed with American vibraphonist Dave Pike, joining what would quickly emerge as one of the most popular and influential jazz fusion combos. This precious document reissued for the first time by Cinedelic Jazz with bonus tracks highlights all his qualities that enabled him to become one of the most acclaimed and innovative gui…
Backpfeifenphaseshift
Two Form a Click (DJ Snaffy, Wretchen Redspiders) collide with Horatio Pollard to deliver two sides of beautifully coalesced psychedelic synthesis, heavy with dub’s production values and freed from the grid of analog electronics. Though primarily operated by the duo of Snaffy and Redspiders, 2FAC has an open door policy which is happy to embrace lone lurkers such as Pollard. Pollard, born in Ibiza, raised in the UK and resident in Berlin since the mid 2000’s, has surely been exposed to all ends …
The Pruttipal Index
What is - or rather: what could be - a "Pruttipal Index"? In books, libraries and databases, an index is usually a concise overview or inventory. It suggests that this album could be a mini-encyclopedia of the work of its makers. In economics, indexes are measurements of the current state of an economy; which, in the case of this album, could be a vitality metrics of the Goodiepal & Pals/GP&PLS/BananSkole collective that produced it. In semiotics, an index is a sign that functions as a trace (li…
"HEALING"
ugne&maria is the duo project of Ugnė Vyliaudaitė and Marija Rasa Kudabaitė, both based in Brussels. Their music is made from a mosaic of samples and carefully triggered field recordings, in dialogue with Vyliaudaitė’s violin. Intricate and calming but far from ambient, in that where ambient music recedes ugne&maria’s music sounds always close to the skin. The compositions are subtle and precise, setting up a logic and then gently manipulating it or letting it hover for several minutes. Elem…

Superior State
*300 copies limited release* Superior State is the second Leitmotiv Limbo album released by Port Adelaide’s De la Catessen Records, after the 2022 CD Spiritual Disturbance. This time, Leitmotiv Limbo’s isolationist studies have been bumped to vinyl, which feels like the perfect format for these twelve miniatures. The project of Adelaide artist Elijah Värttö, Leitmotiv Limbo has, over the past few decades, tracked a history of quietly insistent experimentation, embracing several technologies – in…
Empyrean Traces
"Exquisitely performed by the Benaud Trio … a meditative stillness and a quality of confiding sincerity … heightened by the unpredictability with which notes appear and disappear … there are special joys here.” - Graham Strahle, The Weekend Australian
Musique Improvisée
Cockroach sound. Tender hammering. Whistling, chirping. Much silence in between. Small modulated electric guitar sound. Aha: a rock band?
Teufelskeller
Heavy and face-melting, free improvisation/free jazz wall of energy, and physical approach performance with drone/noise elements. Something pounding and dark is coming out from the dungeons…
La Seuz
Arthur Chambry is a mysterious troubadour, walking the artistic crossroads of sound, poetry and theatre. Using a wide range of personalised gear to compose music, his is a viral energy: hiding and showing off behind the unexpected, playing gut-vibrating frequencies with violins, trumpets or lungs, fruits, pipes, or tapes. His new album La Seuz draws a map of a parallel world made of singing peasants, luthiers, communities of musicians and mystical quests... Arthur carves out a place between trad…
Gryphon
Non-standard prog act Gryphon made their mark by incorporating abandoned instruments and ancient classical elements in their work, giving their self-titled 1973 debut outstanding differences to standard rock fare. With co-founder Richard Harvey on recorders, mandolin, harpsichord, and glockenspiel and Brian Gulland, on bassoon, crumhorns, and vocals, backed by guitarist Graeme Taylor and drummer/percussionist Dave Oberlé, GRYPHON expertly channelled contemporary English folk through forgotten me…
