2008 release ** Superb free music with an early Nurse With Wound-ish feel by the always excellent and obscure Vitamin B12.
Mutants In Siberia
Petr Vrba and Joke Lanz met each other many years ago while standing in the cue for the Hermitage museum in Saint Petersburg Russia. They never made it into the museum, instead they went to eat Solyanka soup and drunk red wine from Georgia. That’s when they decided to join forces and create a power duo w/ electrified trumpet, turntables, electronics and voice. They have toured Czech Republic twice and performed several times in Vienna and Berlin. Mutants In Siberia is their debut album recorded …
dustsceawung
"Pressure relief..... these are the sounds to listen with caution. dustsceawung is a well used pot on the stove with a locking lid. The broken gauge configured with a crack that looks suspiciously like a smile. A worn rubber gasket creating a seal far past it's expected life by the manufacturer. Still this is not enough. There is no measure to how much force lies within. A hiss escapes, a rattle or knocking comes and goes. The process continues with thoughts of the contents within. In this case …

Live at Pioneer Works, 26 October 2023
Formed 29 years ago (1996) by Nate Young, Wolf Eyes is currently a duo generally characterized as "noise," though they have called themselves "psycho jazz" (among other things). Extremely prolific, they have literally hundreds of releases and are a towering presence in underground music. Saxophonist Anthony Braxton was an early member of the AACM (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians) and has won a MacArthur and been named an NEA Jazz Master, though his work is hardly confined t…
For Translucence
The debut album from Whitney Johnson & Lia Kohl has evolved over several years from their initial practice of free improvisation on viola and cello into (for the moment), this: a neophonic orchestral expression. At once stimulating and soothing, For Translucence is a living, breathing meditation in which layers of acoustic strings, synthesizers, field recordings, radio and sine waves illuminate each other as they twine and grow.
Peace and Pleasure
*200 copies limited edition* In February 2019, multi-instrumentalists Maurizio Abate and Luca Venitucci crossed musical paths as part of an artist residency at Standards in Milan. Over those few days, their respective instruments engaged in a dialogue, shaping sounds and structures within the space that housed them. While working on the post-production of the recorded material, Abate and Venitucci enlisted the valuable and decisive collaboration of fellow like-minded musicians Roberto Laneri and…
Papotier
Marking the final chapter of a visionary trilogy, “Papotier” sees Pancrace return in full force. A haunting exploration of breath, language, and acoustics, recorded around a historic Silbermann organ in Alsace, the album is a radical statement of sonic identity - fragile, fearless, and gloriously unclassifiable.
3 × hullo, hullo
The first few minutes of ‘3 × hullo, hullo’ sound like a little mole creeping up through the soil. The little thing hoes and scoops up some sand, building a small pile of dirt. But then, anger... because this drives them mad—those who want their lawns clean and spotless. A clean lawn: a desire we inherited from the Brits. Dumped into our collective consciousness by humorless Victorians who enjoyed having their black pudding on the lawn. An uninspired impression from their misreading of Italian p…
Oh! Pebbles / 아 ! 조약돌
Tom Jacques and Eunsil Noh met recently on Tom’s first trip to South Korea. Their meeting was marked by instant musical chemistry and camaraderie. Their duo project, Oh ! Pebbles, consists of their complimentary singular practices in musical improvisation. Their sound centers on fusing minimalistic noise coming from mundane objects triggered by vibrating mini-motors and the re-actualisation of the storied history of voice art in the Pansori tradition. This combination, often supported by harmoni…
Flaw Games
Bolide is an electro-acoustic improvising unit, formed in Brighton, UK, in 2007. Originally coming together under the name Bolide Awkwardstra, the group's inaugural performance was at the Colour Out of Space festival in 2007, followed by a show in a local park playing a soundtrack to an infants' football match. Ever since, Bolide have oscillated between these giddy poles. Somewhere along the way, it was decided that awkwardness and sketchy puns should no longer be a barrier to progress.
III: Paz en las rupturas
Tip! *250 copies limited edition* The Kriego is the joint project of musicians and sound artists Fernando Feria & Emiliano Cruz. Born from cultivating similar creative interests in sound art, improvisation, and composition, the duo weaves a sound born of noise, ambient, and free improvisation; exploring various formats and using the electric guitar as their main mean of expression. The project emerged in October 2021 in Mexico City with the presentation of their album I at Casa Patricio, later p…
Watering Paper Flowers and Snakes
Open to the Sea was born around the musical experiences of Enrico Coniglio, here playing piano and synths, and of the music wizard Matteo Uggeri who adds his world of samples, noises, field recordings and recorded instruments played by friends. The first CD is a re-edition of the double mini-cd “Watering a Paper Flower” where an echoed piano goes through delicate and enchanted sound tapestries, remembering a river slowly flowing to the sea. The second CD, with the participation of a third musici…
Una volta era Circle
Circle was a short lived group formed in mid seventies by Ruggero Tajè and Riccardo Sinigaglia, both pupils of Angelo Paccagnini and later composers and professors of electrinic music at Milan conservatory. Paccagnini was one of the great italian post weberian composers along with Luciano Berio, Bruno Maderna and Giacomo Manzoni. Ruggero and Riccardo joined theit friend Roberto "Brillo" Gotta who played double bass in Gaetano Liguori's group and other jazz groups in the Milano area. "Brillo" Got…
Too Cold
*2025 stock* Something about eating roses Sean… First it’s 2004. Anthony doesn’t even have a piano for that trio gig… Oh no! Nonetheless, something happens in that old damp cellar of Cave12 and some connections are made for ever. In 2006 “The Same Girl” comes over to Australia with Gilles Aubry and myself; we spend a few nights at your place on Hardware Lane. It’s now 2007, it’s around my birthday and we’re emailing about a Buttercup Metal Polish tour. You offer to help out for some contacts and…

Ake is a typical self empowered avand-garde artist of today's china. she start to play music with her totally unskilled violin and a desire of being exist and a planty of still time, as the only valuable propoty of many people, in around 2016. she is part of the new/no wave of performance art and the newly reflourishing fluxus spirit. this album is mostly a collectio…
Bangone Ensemble
Big Tip! *200 copies * In the mid-70s in Northern New Jersey, some friends and I formed an ensemble called Atomic Squawk, with which we used our extremely limited musical techniques to play the sorts of whacked-out sounds about which none of our fucking peers gave a rat's ass. “Funny” talking blues, free form skronk, vaguely detourned covers of Beefheart and the Velvets -- these were our stocks in trade, and much happy time was whiled away in Randy Charles' basement drinking and making noise, si…
Rotations +
Rotations+ is a trio project of Sven-Ake Johansson with German turntablist Ignaz Schick and Austrian trumpeter Franz Hautzinger recorded live at the beloved Berlin experimental venue KM28 in September of 2023. The collective improvisations are instilled with a deep interest in color and timbre, and each track offers a fresh perspective. While Johansson toggles to accordion on the album’s final track, squeezing tender lines alongside Hautzinger’s moody brass and Schick’s scratch-pocked layer of w…
Munich Sound Studies Vols. 4, 5 & 6
"The current release consists of the Schindler-Damon Smith-Sandy Ewen trio and the friends I have brought in: Karina Erhard from Munich, Jaap Blonk from the Netherlands, Sebastiano Tramontana from Sicily. The three concerts are from my presentation format LowToneStudies. I have been organizing my concerts myself for many years, financing them myself, as the music and sound art that I prefer is completely ignored in Munich, the richest city in Germany. Not only in terms of support in many respect…
