Live At The Waterworks Berlin
Founder of the Steel Cello Ensemble (1970s) featuring various players over the years. The music was produced on steel instruments like the Bow Chime or the Steel Cello that were built by Rutman himself. Among the musicians he collaborated with were R…
Svatba
With voice, violin and percussion, this duo produces music with a thrilling intensity, suspense and drama. The musical basis is a mixture of the duo's interpretation of slovakian and romanian folk music, jazz and classical. They play with a freshness…
The Four Cassettes Of The Apocalypse
Longtime stalwarts of the cassette underground (70 cassette-only releases and over 300 compilation appearances!) finally do a CD. This outstanding collection of soundscapes draws on collage, ambient-industrial and process techniques, as well as the c…
Sound Pressure Level
The name Mazk is formed by the initials of the two participants in this project: Masami Akita (better known as Merzbow) and Zbigniew Karkowski. Not surprisingly given the history of the two musicians, the general scope of this recording is throbbing …
Zamia Lehmanni (Songs Of Byzantine Flowers)
Everything else SPK did was either industrial grind or fluffy dance-pop. Zamia Lehmanni lies along the axis of Graeme Revell's other solo projects (see below) and is gorgeous throughout. Its cover is red, gold, and black and the liner notes quote dec…
L' Instruction Oratorio
Frederic Rzewski is an American composer, now resident in Belgium, of mostly chamber, vocal and piano works that have been performed throughout the world; he is also active as a pianist. Prof. Rzewski studied music privately with Charles Mackey in Sp…
Helix Parasites
"HELIX PARASITES": built on the idea of genetic modification via new channels, this is probably our most diversified and composite work so far. With a strong trend for rhythms and subliminal pipes, it has at the same time some of the most outlandish …
Theater Works
Roedelius (who is one-half of the legendary German electronic band Cluster) has had a solo career for many many years. Alas, his solo work tends to be less electronic and more keyboard easy listening fare. "Theatre Works" is a departure from that tre…
Five Manifestoes
Meanwhile hard to find collaboration release. Swirling und grinding sounds in spooky layers. A rather dark and moving release.
DBL_FDBK
Asmus Tietchens and Arcane Device’s debut, ‘DBL.FDBK’, does not fit easily into one genre. If you want to hear real Ambient, get this record now! This is the most melodic ambitious and satisfying track in DBL.FDBK. It’s also one of those rare songs t…
Hotel Hotel
Idiosyncratic French musical provocateur's finest moments and laden with ace contributions from an international cast of oddballs including Pierre Bastien and Clive Bell, the provisional constructs Berrocal and co. jerry-rig around the free floating …
L’âme de l’objet
With L’âme de l’objet, percussionist Michel F Côté reached his artistic maturity, delivering his best achievement, at least with his project Bruire. For this third album, Bruire has really become a band, as the same group of musicians appear on every…
Polka Dots & Laser Beams
Guy Klucevsek plays music by Steve Elson, Tom Cora, Guy Klucevsek, Joseph Kasinskas, Anthony Coleman, Daniel Goode, Nicolas Collins, Guy De Bievre, Robin Holcomb, Duke Ellington, Peter Garland, William Duckworth, Bobby Previte, Carl Finch.
?Who Stole The Polka?
?Who Stole the Polka? is the second volume of pieces that accordionist Guy Klucevsek commissioned from composers ranging widely over the contemporary new music scene in the mid-'80s. For pure wicked fun, it probably exceeds its companion, Polka Dots …
Iva Bittovà j.h.
Iva Bittová has been the guest of many artists all over the world, but this compilation mostly explores her work with her Czech compatriots, including Ida Kelarová, Pavel Fajt and Pluto, Nederlands Blazers Ensemble, Krajinka and Vladimír Godár, as we…
Variety of Moods
This eleven-song debut EP shows the promise that Hans Joachim Roedelius has. This album has some very good songs like Muy Encantado and Bons Jours. Hans Joachim Roedelius’s debut, ‘Variety Of Moods’, does not fit easily into one genre. Unappreciated …
Hot Stuff
German percussionist and Guru Guru founding member Mani Neumeier on drums, percussion, tapes, trombone, vocals, steel drum, Gamelan & radio. Swiss improviser Luigi Archetti on guitars, bass, tapes & mandolin. Totally flipped out rock/improv hybrid th…
infrantumi
Starfuckers are an Italian collective...they create self-described 'concrete rock' that is at times so severely disconnected and minimal that the listener must mentally piece together the fragments. Imagine a place where This Heat and Oval meet.
Per Aspera Ad Astra
The unique pairing of the tonal feedback duo Stars of the Lid and NYC minimalist line painter Jon McCafferty. McCafferty (best known for the cover art of R.E.M.'s Green album) approached Stars of the Lid in the summer of 1995. McCafferty had done a s…
