Endless Bullshit Vol. 2
*150 copies limited edition* This isn’t really meant to be music, it’s meant to be some kind of audio art work about music, but it just ends up being music. The Christopher Walken character in New Rose Hotel says, “Potato, potahto, government, corporation, it’s the same thing.” This audio is interested in the problem of what we do in a situation where the government corporation is the official sponsor of how we think and feel about every aspect of existence and the possible, is invested in all i…

Furthered
"Furthered" is the new album by Alex Ward Item 4. The quartet's music is the fullest realization of Ward's long-standing desire to create a context where his compositional concerns can coexist with improvisation of the most unfettered stripe. Given a line-up which would be perfectly capable of creating compelling music without recourse to pre-written elements at all, Ward's compositions aim to function as another "personality" within the overall mix, subject to the same spontaneous interrogation…
Addio Zio Tom
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing Italia, presents a revised, remastered and expanded edition of Riz Ortolani’s famous score for the shocking and successful mondo movie Addio Zio Tom, directed by Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi in 1971.
This epic re-creation of the atrocities of the American slave trade was both condemned as depraved exploitation and hailed as an unprecedented cry of black anguish and rage. The Detroit Chronicle hailed it as “a gra…
Love-Fidelity or Hiss Goodbye
"Love-Fidelity or Hiss Goodbye" is Dmytro Nikolaienko’s fourth solo album released on Muscut. Similar to his previous work, "Meta," this new album adheres to the same principles and limitations, focusing on acoustic and electro-acoustic instruments. However, the range of instruments used is more expansive this time. In addition to the metallophone and tape, it features samples from bass guitar, xylophone, bongos, saxophone, clarinet, and flute. These samples were borrowed and then tape-looped fr…
Deep Meaning
“Deep Meaning” is the debut album by Maria Wildeis, a Cologne-based artist and expert in real-time sound design for installations. The tracks on “Deep Meaning” oscillate between club and experimental music and are characterized by a lightness unique to debut works. Particularly notable is the inventive use of synthetic, organic, and sampled vocal elements. Voices constantly morph into melodies and back; words become notes, chords turn into text. Maria’s real-time approach to composing is evident…

When Angels Speak of Love
When Angels Speak of Love, released in 1966 on Sun Ra's Saturn label, is a rarity, with limited pressings (150 copies, by one estimate), which were sold thru the mail and at concerts and club dates. The tracks were taped in New York during two 1963 sessions at the Choreographer's Workshop, a rehearsal space/recording den with warehouse acoustics. Ra spent countless hours at the CW from 1961 to 1964 sharpening the Arkestra during exhaustive musical huddles. John Corbett calls this "one of the mos…

Extracøntinent
The extracøntinent that Damien Mingus invites us to visit on this new album from his My jazzy Child project is by no means an imagined or imaginary space. It's the palpable space forged by the musician's 25 years of activity, where popular and traditional music, free music and learned traditions collide. And don't confuse the ∅ (empty set) with the Ø (island in Norwegian) used in the title of this album and some of the tracks - it's insularity that's being asserted here. An island-continent made…
