Lost and Found
Formed in 2017, J Pavone String Ensemble features Jessica Pavone and Abby Swidler on violas, and Erica Dicker and Angela Morris on violins.

Cinevox Tidbeats
**2CD version** Long coveted by diggers, samplers, and beat makers, library music and film soundtracks have, over the decades, revealed themselves to be one of the great treasure troves of 20th century music. A wonderful, often overlooked world of sound - vast in its breath and endlessly adventurous and unpredictable in the realizations of its creative ambition - there are few veins more remarkable and thrilling than those efforts produced within Italy during the 1960s, '70s, and '80s. We are th…

Les Troubles
*100 copies * Pentiments makes its first foray into the 7 inch format with a new and vivid work by the indefatigable French sound artist Guido Hübner, AKA Das Synthetische Mischgewebe. Borrowing its title from the identically named epistemological text “Le Trouble” by French polymath Francois Dagognet, the two-part work puts forth an intricate and compacted compendium of the electromechanical vocabulary that DSM has made his calling card. Contained within are deft-handed tradings back and forth …

Ten Years Alive On The Infinite Plain
In the years following his reemergence into the world of music in the 1990’s, until his untimely death last year, Tony Conrad was a towering presence in American experimental music. He was it’s grand patriarch. A monolith. A beam of light shining on the future and past. Beginning with his efforts during the early 1960’s, Conrad set the terms for how experimental practice is currently understood and pursued, yet with a vision and being so completely focused on the present, it was often hard to re…

Soul Metabolisms / Untitled
Around the 3rd or 4th year into the journey, while recovering from health complications, I’ve suddenly and unexpectedly began to notice the first traces of human existence in the captured audio. There had been hints of that already, but never before had they been this clear. The source could be some old magnetic tape sound recordings or some modern machinery (maybe to their time), but most of the sounds were clearly human, telling stories of lives not unlike our own.”Invoking the claustrophobic …
I See Wind, I Hear Voices
Originally released as privately pressed K7, Praga De Urubu Só Pega Em Cavalo Magro (Vulture’s Plague Only Catches a Thin Horse), is the result of a Tropa Macaca live performance in the emblematic Lisbon venue Lux, circa 2012. The long ecstatic piece, lasting over 21 minutes, builds up slowly – much like a vulture hovering patiently over its prey, waiting for the opportunity to claim its reward.
Volume 1
**500 copies** The debut release from the long-running Chicago based collaboration of Quin Kirchner, Daniel Van Duerm and Matthew Lux aka KVL. Also featuring super special guest Jaimie Branch on Peaceable. KVL sits nicely in the same headspace as recent modern improv that eschews a more traditional "jazz" label. Think Matthew Lux's Contra/Fact, Jaimie Branch's Fly or Die, Shabaka Hutching's Sons of Kemet or The Comet Is Coming, Ben Lamar Gaye, Rob Mazurek and others. Of course, many folks will p…
Luke Stewart Exposure Quintet
"Back in 2018, I was invited by Dave Rempis to participate in the Exposure Series at Elastic Arts in Chicago. The Series was for me a shining example of artist-lead organizing of different yet connected communities around the Music. From my standpoint, it is yet another in the continuum of such actions, specifically in Chicago, and has been a major inspiration for my work as an artist and for the material on this recording.
The ensemble was assembled by Mr. Rempis, and was the first time the gro…
I Was Crossing A Bridge

Starting out as a percussionist, Ricci’s early musical journey led him to im…
Zabumbe-Bum-A
A gem of an album from Hermeto Pascoal – right up there with 70s classics like A Musica Libre and Slaves Mass – and done with a similar sort of energy that goes way beyond jazz, way beyond conventional Brazilian music – into territory that can only be described as Hermeto-like! The set's got a mix of tight fusion jamming, off-beat reed work, and some of Hermeto's heavenly compositions – and although there's a good groove to much of the material, that doesn't stop it from being as experimental as…
