The Folk Group
**CD version** Piero Umiliani’s rich and diverse discography got us used to bold experimentalism, to excursions into popular music as into avantgarde. Nonetheless, while “The Folk Group” makes no surprise, it still represents a peculiar work within Umiliani’s seemingly endless career. Originally published under the name of M. Zalla, an alias he especially used for those albums that were difficult to classify – and among which we must mention the extraordinary “Mondo Inquieto” and “Problemi d’ogg…
Dies Irae
This record is the first record of this group to be released (not to be confused with the German namesake training krautrock record release on the Pilz label in 1971). It consists of tracks recorded on stage and in the studio from 1976 and 1978, when Dies Irae was at the top of its game. A record that will allow you to judge the qualities of this little-known group that claims its influences (including notorious groups of the era King Crimson, Van der Graaf generator and Magma) nevertheless has …
Here Come The Warm Jets
By the time Brian Eno left Roxy Music and came to record this masterpiece of a debut in 1973, he already held in his grasp the raw tools to revolutionize popular music. Here Come The Warm Jets is bathed in his singular pop-with-a-wink aesthetic and free-associative imagination. Whether on the four-on-the-floor pre-punk stomp of Needles in the Camel's Eye' or the Spector / Velvet Underground trad-rock-ism of Cindy Tells Me,' the album displays an unabashed love of quirky, catchy pop. Savage guita…
Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)
Continuing the twisted pop explorations of Here Come the Warm Jets, Brian Eno's follow up album, Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy), is more subdued and cerebral, and a bit darker when he does cut loose, but it's no less thrilling once the music reveals itself. It's a loose concept album about espionage, the Chinese Communist revolution, and dream associations, with the more stream-of-consciousness lyrics beginning to resemble the sorts of random connections made in dream states. Eno's richly l…

Dimensions
Very nice late 80s early 90s recordings from the man behind Futuro Antico "In this record I have sought to integrate those element that together formed my musical identity, and which at times I have lived with some difficulty, as they derived from different, and conflicting cultures.

Fluid To The Influence
LP version. Chris Abrahams returns with Fluid To The Influence. Building upon the foundation of his previous three editions for Room40, Abrahams charts out a divergent course through lilting piano flows, distended organ passages, thunderous electronic eruptions, and focused concrète explorations. Fluid To The Influence spans a huge spectrum of sound, each movement calling forward to the next in a flowing motion that demonstrates Abrahams's commitment to and interest in the album as an artistic f…
Illuminant/Glory
Illuminant/Glory is a wild awake, which marks the transition to a new perception of the self. A solitary trip towards the discover of the feral nature which ideally leads to death (Illuminant) and to rebirth (Glory) of whom embarks on this trip. Through sampling in real time floor-tom, voice and synths, the listener is buried under layers of percussions, drones and mantras, dragged further down ("Come down with us") to exorcise the fear of what he is in nature. Only confronting with death…
A Fluxus Essay
Dorothy Iannone (b.1933) tells her Fluxus Story. Recorded in Berlin in 1979. Edition of 300 copies. CD with 20-page A4 offset-printed booklet. "There, Maciunas and I looked deeply but impassively into each other’s eyes, not knowing then that we would meet again on these pages. Perhaps he was thinking, “Who is this woman?”. Perhaps it might even have amused him, somewhere far back in his mind, to know that I am she who is the Fluxus women artist who is not the Fluxus women artist.“Dorothy Iannone…
