Oils
In the second half of the eighties, I heard the duo of Charles Gayle and Peter Kowald at the Jazz Days in Novi Sad. A few years later, when Szilárd Mezei and I met, and played music together, I told him a lot about the experience that this concert had given me. I remember that the intensity, the density, the strikingly different quality of Gayle's music-making was beyond my comprehension, or even my measure. And then the world changed, and what seemed unattainable at the time became reality. A j…

Dream Walks
"The starry floor/The watery shore/Is given thee til the break of day.“ - William Blake
Music records a dream in which your other body goes out for a walk with a friend or two or more and brings back things you can grasp in the real world. If the ground beneath you is water and reflects the stars you may dream you're walking on stars. One morning, the Somnambulist woke up from his dream-walk with a record in his hand and miraculously they were all there: the uncanny encounters, spooling elucubra…
Everything Is True
Everything is True is an album of a personal and sentimental nature, where various musical styles blend, influenced by music from different cultures, contemporary, orchestral, and electronic music. The instrumentarium is equally diverse, combining acoustic, electronic, and even unconventional instruments such as lithophones or prototypes of string instruments like the bassdesmophon. This fusion creates timeless-sounding pieces with exceptional tonality. Most of the tracks on the album were recor…

Artist Andrzej Steinbach's debut album includes two pieces of music, »Wartehalle« and »Behörde«, which he recorded in mono at the Leopold Hoesch Museum in Düren in early 2024.
Steinbach converted an object from his collection into an instrument. A contact microphone was attached to the metal door frame, which reproduces the natural vibrations of the frame via an amplifier and a sound transducer in a feedback loop. Using an intermediate mixer, Steinbach was able to control these charges directly …
Mosaic
This is Fennesz's most reflective album to date. Composed and recorded at the end of 2023 and completed in the summer of 2024. Fennesz set up a new studio space, the third one in four years. He had no immediate concept, this time starting from scratch, with a strict working routine. He got up early in the morning, worked until midday then had a break and worked again until evening. At first, just collecting ideas, experimenting, improvising. Then composing, mixing and correcting. Yet the title c…
A Radical Horizon
*100 copies limited edition* A Radical Horizon is comprised of a series of duets between cellist Lori Goldston and pianist Stefan Christoff, recorded on a late Fall afternoon in Brooklyn, NY. A conversation between friends, these improvised excursions reflect a willingness to be open to the spirits in the space and between the notes; a spirit of communion that, as Stefan writes, "guides and dances with our dialogue together".
Stefan Christoff is a Canadian musician, community organizer, and jour…

Out Of Practice II
This tape is a weird one. We’re calling it a “covers album”, which in our fried brains it is, but you might disagree. When our first two gigs in 15 years landed on our calendar we wanted to do something unexpected, a ‘live one night only’ kind of thing. We're always improvising everything, but as OOP1 may (or may not) have demonstrated we usually go into our live sets with some kind of plan — a set of moves, themes, approaches, ideas, structures or feelings that we call “songs” but that probably…
