Stations Of The Cross
Ltd ed of 500 copies, first edition "New release from baroque conceptualist and improviser, Josef Van Wissem, who, for more than a decade, has been quietly but surely reinventing the vocabulary of that most unlikely of instruments, the lute. With the exception of the odd Renaissance preservationist context, the lute, which was once the most popular portable instrument in the Western world, has all but disappeared from our musical landscape. Despite the arcane associations of his chosen ins…
All My Life (I Love You)
Two of Skip's rare post-Oar studio excursions; 'All My Life (I Love You),' from '72, is Spence's boisterous take on Badfinger/Raspberries-style power pop, while 'Land Of The Sun,' recorded in '96 with the X Files in mind, sounds like nothing else under the sun, and finds Skip sonorously intoning a poem atop a psychedelic bed of sound.
Oscillator

At the mixer: Maurizio Fasolo and Massimo Michelotti, soon to be known as Pankow.

Various amusements
Back in stock. 'Various Amusements is the fourth release by Japanese duo Nerve Net Noise. Though the definition of noise explored across the 7 tracks seems to differ from the traditional expectations of japanoise music - rather slow motion noise is perhaps a better description. The album has a certain theme to it, suggesting a girlishness with the packaging and various amusements of the track titles. The CD comes in a pink anti-static bag with a pink card inlay, while track titles include cookin…

Silence Over Florence 1982-1984
In the beginning there was Tenax…rock club / black hole of youth in search of an identity…and not just musically speaking. In this pagan temple of torn army pants and calcified hair gel the Florentine new wave scene had just begun to take shape, and this box set maps the humble beginnings of that near-great metropolitan epic. 4 bands. 4 CDs. Collected in a clear plastic box with a 16-page booklet (in English) that tells the tragic tale…

5 Rimbaud 1 Verlaine
At last! This is the first new Ghédalia Tazartès record in 10 years! Not that this gentleman was done with his Impromuzic, but he prefers to watch his widowed canary flying & singing in his flatelier than to release records. Anyway, he's back with these memorable & noisy performances of Rimbaud & Verlaine, giving to their poetry the best of tributes.
I Hate Mozart
"Why do I have to sing Mozart all the time?", the tenor in Bernhard Lang's opera "I hate Mozart" cries out in despair. Well, why always listen to Mozart operas and not an opera of the early 21st century for a change? With their provocatively named contribution to the Viennese Mozart Year 2006, composer Bernhard Lang and librettist Michael Sturminger succeeded in creating a parody of the opera business that loses none of its sharp wit in the CD recording. The "backstage insights" supplied on DVD …

Meets the Clear People with Mystery Gypped...
Last copies from a dead stock, out of print... Technically the full title is No Neck Blues Band Meets The Clear People with Mystery Gypped Live At Ken’s Electric Lake, but that seems unnecessarily long to me. In short, it’s NNCK with members of Sunburned Hand Of The Man. Over the course of the two discs the few inevitable moments of dullness are obscured by glorious passages of spiraling rhythm, spaced hypnotics and trance grooves. Woods evoke a primal sense of refuge and sanctuary which the ba…
