Reissue of this 1999 release and out of print since a long time. Some reviews at the time of release : ' After a tentative opening consisting of damp harmonic scrapes, the piece takes off like a single-engined light aircraft when David Maranha kickstarts his four-motored Piano effect and then starts to tease single notes from the bubbling background with his bow. This is a great and physically affecting slab of sound, where the slightest minimal shift causes tectonic plates to groan. It's gravy …
Music By David Maranha. To play Loud. Recorded, mixed and mastered in February and March 2002 in Lisbon. Players: Andrè Maranha, Bernardo Devlin, David Maranha, Luis Desirat, Manuel Mota, Patricia Machàs and Rodrigo Amado.
Marches of the new World, new record by legendary Portuguese underground figure David MARANHA, who has also been putting out music with the mythical Osso Exótico unit for almost 20 years (his previous release was with Patrícia Machás and drone duo Minit as Organ Eye, who put out a self-titled album on the Staubgold label), is his more recent study & advancement in exploring, witnessing and generating new slices of blissful, savaged drone music. Coming from the higher education of minimalist pion…
Brooklyn-based Grubbs and Athens-based cellist Veliotis took a break amidst their US tour for A Guess at the Riddle to go into John McEntire's Soma Studios and record The Harmless Dust, two duos for piano and cello and for e-bowed piano and Hammond organ. The piece was first performed live in Tokyo in August, and we knew that headz - which put on the show - would be the perfect home for The Harmless Dust. The title comes from a line in the Wingdale Community Singers' song 'Family Plot, Mayfield …
David Grubbs (Bastro, Gastr Del Sol) has a longstanding history of collaboration and interest in contemporary visual arts. Many of his solo albums, for instance, feature covers by artists such as Doug Aitken, Marcel Broodthaers, Cosima von Bonin, Stephen Prina or Albert Oehlen. This new mini-album features two compositions commissioned by Angela Bulloch for two of her installation pieces. British artist Angela Bulloch has been making installations since the early 90s, while starting to use the i…
in the memory of René Quinon thanks to Fred Galiay & "Samedi 14" We all are in a house: "Villa Adriana", (René Quinon's house - little village - low mountain - high valley - Ardèche). A bunch of all kind of microphones are deviced in the house and amojng the landscape around the place. Each of them is plugged into a mixing desk that Eric La Casa is using during the recordings. The duration of the mix is more or less pre-decided by the 4 of us. During this amount of time, the 3 instrumentalists a…

It's very difficult to explain or interpret what my music conveys – so that's why I work hard so that the music can speak for itself - no matter how vague the message or imagery - the energy of what it's communicating is what remains most evident."Daniel menche
Timestretched whirrs, large insect buzzes, boats bumping into each other in a stormy harbour, muffled mechanical loops, a distressed organ like tone that mutates into a buzz saw before changing again in to a thousand factory horns. These are some of the sounds and associations delivered up in this intense, 20 minute work by Oregon based sound artist, Daniel menche. 'Drunk Gods' is a piece of savage, physical beauty that Lapilli is pleased to present as it's second release
A much welcomed new release from this American artist who has produced some of the best recordings in the experimental music scene. Although this is a Series II recording, do not assume any of the power that Daniel menche can marshal has been lost. Quiet at times, strong and full in others, this release constructs its moods with powerful bass pulses, full spectrum harmonic drones and vibrating tones along with the scratching, raspy organic textures that Daniel menche is famous for. Each piece st…
The final Daniel Menche's solo drum excursion is one hour futuristic shaman's flight. The Native American drum, both recorded clean and processed beyond recognition, pulses with the primal beat of the earth. Packaged in black, hand assembled, emd.pl-records boxes, with screenprinted graphics in white and gold by our friend Wojtek Bednarski.' Daniel Menche "Native American drums are superb for rich resonating sounds due to the animal skin used. For Animality I used a large drum with moose skin fo…

Sachiko M and Ami Yoshida, both from Tokyo, met in 1997 and formed the duo of Cosmos the following year. Sachiko M has developed a unique style utilizing a memory-free sampler, creating pure, piercing sine waves with the device's built-in test tones and noise. She has also recently begun exploring the use of contact microphones, as documented on the second track of Tears. Sachiko has worked extensively as a solo artist, in groups such as Filament, I.S.O., and Hoahio, and in duo with Toshimaru Na…
CD Compact disc album, cardboard cover, limited edition.
