Anexo3
Anexo3 (2017-18) was composed by Jaime Oliver La Rosa and Ensemble KLEM over residencies in Bilbao, Lima, and Santiago de Chile, through elaborated processes of sound design, experimentation, improvisation, recording, and reflection. Often processed beyond recognition, violin, flutes, and saxophones are performed along güiros, motors, and a system of aluminum plates, struck and induced into resonance through feedback processes controlled by microphones, transducers, and computer software and joi…
When You and Your Goat Find Bread
When You And Your Goat Find Bread is a thing of it’s own beauty. On her first solo outing, the German-Filipino composer, musician, actress, film and music producer, painter, performance artist and author Tintin Patrone presents seven carefully crafted and emotively played neo-classical compositions for trombone and electronics."A goat is a domestic animal kept to be sacrificed to giants.

The Funnel
**300 copies** The Funnel is the debut album by composer, instrument builder and artist Wojciech Rusin. Combining field recordings from Port Talbot Steelworks, self built electro acoustic instruments and vocals drawn from alchemical texts and renaissance polyphony, The Funnel is chamber-musique-concrète for the wondering troubadour of the 21st century. "Passport to an obscenely dynamic, contemplative dimension, The Funnel is a set of ancient imaginations in a stranglehold of electronics and stee…
Seven Of Wands
Gilgongo Records presents the highly anticipated debut vinyl edition of John Wiese’s acclaimed album, 'Seven of Wands', originally released on Pan back in 2011. Uniquely beautiful, immersive, and transportive, it utilizes strategies and techniques of musique concrète and electroacoustic music, while emphasizing the mixing desk as a true instrument. As a composer, Wiese is an elusive one. Employing a very healthy range of conceptual framework throughout his oevure, he’s unmistakably recognizable,…
Goshen
The Pitchshifters is a project by Hideto Aso from Japan. This is his second release on Meeuw Muzak and as usual his contributions were culled from old and scarce self-released CD-R editions. Wonderful naive and outstanding synth music on the first side with some more dreamy electroacoustic experiments on the flip. Immerse yourself in the delicate sound of The Pitchshifters and yours is the reward.
Three Pieces in Polytempic Polymicrotonality
The author of these notes has spent his life explaining radical music, and the music on this disc may be the most radical I've ever written about. Peter Thoegersen (b. 1967) is not yet a name known to the music world; not for any lack of connection to other famous musicians, but because he came to composition late, and because his artistic aims are so broad and complex that they have taken years to evolve. His aesthetic is well defined, and he is upfront about having a name for it: "Polytempic P…
Contrée
Unreleased before collection from French electroacoustician Régis Renouard Larivière. Contrée is an LP of quizzical, sometimes eerie voyages into unknown noise. "Allégeance Volatile" and "Esquive" each tackle the same issue in their own way. Overcoming time: whether it be successive, additional, enumerative, or repetitive. However, there is nothing here about the ensuing nature of so-called "repetitive" music. These are types of high-end music. And it is more about insistence, the obstinacy of a…
Dimensions
"Sealed, original copies of this wonderful 1986 private-press home-studio Electronic Music outing, direct from the artist. While reissues and contemporary efforts unquestionably dominate the the current landscape of recorded music, among its more fascinating and rarely mentioned objects, are warehouse finds. These records, due to lack of demand upon their initial release, have lingered for decades on shelves and pallets, in closets and under beds, waiting for a new generation of sonic explorers…

Ze Wörmnest
Lovely. Here’s a Creelpro of Jonas Palm’s 1980 Piglet-label outing “Ze Wörmnest,” widely considered as one of the canonic crater-dwellings of early 80s “Minimal Synth” pedagogy. To wit, here’s a perfectly zenzible stammer by John “Inzane” Olson, re: this particular media-carrier: "Man.....super whacked out mumble synth homemade jammer by Jonas Palm. on the rare Piglet records circa 1980. Super mystery sounds from a oozing liquid stranger place inside your slowly vibrating skull. Intense!!! Act…
Contemporaneos 4, Musica Electroacustica
Last C.P. of 2010, finally available after countless delays, mostly involving the tricky /expert-level remastering job needed to resuscitate this incredible, historically-important music from sub-par vinyl pressings - a high-spec issue of Cuban composer Juan Blanco’s first two Egrem / Areito label LPs, covering his earliest electronic music dating back to 1963. Opening with the token non-electronic “Musica Para un Joven Martir” - or "Music for a Young Martyr" - rife with swelling, Penderecki-ia…

1982 compilation of late 70s & early 80s "Konkret - Instrumental - Vokal" work composed at the Studio für Elektronische Musik der Staatlichen Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Stuttgart. Includes pieces by Jürgen Bäuninger (incredible transformations of “Tam Tam”, or gong smash / grabbings,) Klaus Fessman (re-pitched string grabs, Partch-like prepared piano & deep ominous bass cloudings, cut with random bleep,) Ulrich Süsse (tongue-in-cheek narrations jump-cut at a rapid pace analog za…
La Trilogie de la Montagne
Gorgeous, three-part Musique Concrète suite, composed at McGill's Electronic Music studio during 1977 & 78 by Quebecois composer Michel Longtin, timbrally presaging much of the FM synthesis-laden work of the early 80s & onwards, acting a bridge between the two sensibilities.
Omnicircus
Creel Pone replication of this wonderful 1979 Chicagoland "Paste-on" Private Press LP offering a single "Electronic Composition" in two parts, "Kriegspiel" & "Eropoc," intended at the soundtrack "for the first 2 sections of 'OMNICIRCUS', a theatre piece for electronic music, computer graphics, video synthesis, dance, sculpture, architecture, and drama" by one Frank Garvey.

Musiques Électroacoustiques
Creel Pone treatment of two issues of Chilean Composer Edgardo N. Canton’s Early Electro-Acoustic music, entirely composed & executed during a residency at the GRM that started in 1959 & ended in 1965 - although he stayed on as an adjunct composer until 1973 - inlcuding a hen’s-teeth rare 1984 Moshe-Naim label collection, then two variants of his score to Serge Roullet's film of Sartre's "Le Mur" on Disques Ades.As the central & southern-american territories have been fairly under-documented - a…
Herbstpathetique, Bildnis
Issued by the mythical “Musikalische Jugend Österreichs” (the same who bestowed Anestis Logothetis’ “Hör!-Spiel / Nekrologlog 1961 / Fantasmata 1960” LP onto a confused, irradiated public a few years later) in 1972, this, frankly, batshit outing of Sound-Poetry lineage vocal gymnastics (courtesy of the composer’s wife - noted actress Gunda König) & analogue blat ℅ Dieter Kaufmann hits an ardent stride during the A-side’s Rilke adaptation before launching into the stratosphere via the B-side’s ex…
Dual Unity
CD edition. Bamboo present a reissue of the debut album by Annette Peacock & Paul Bley, Dual Unity, originally released in 1972. Annette Peacock's legacy may only just be courting recognition proper with the recent retrospective release of her solo debut I'm The One (1972).

Dual Unity is a landscape of aural vision c…
