Fine
Music for dance, by AMM. Recording of the concert given together with the dancer Fine Kwiatkowski at Musique Action festival produced by CCAM, Vendoeuvre-les-Nancy, France on 24th May 2001. The album's title connotation is at least dual. This is a recording of a live performance done in conjunction with dancer Fine Kwiatkowski (who, incidentally, is not audible), and it's certainly "fine" in the qualitative sense. One hopes the aura of "finality" implicit in the title doesn't apply. This is one …
Tunes Without Measure or End
AMM and their CDs have an almost comfortable familiarity. The trio's personnel has remained fundamentally the same since the early '80s when pianist John Tilbury joined the remaining founders, drummer Eddie Prévost and guitarist Keith Rowe. Every two or three years they release a CD, usually a single uninterrupted improvisation, about an hour in length, taped in performance. The only way in which these two CDs tamper with that practice is that they were both released in 2001. 'Tunes Without Meas…

Touch

"This trio, quite intuitively (because I never spelt out what I hoped would happen) works in a subtle, attentive way: examining what the music is and where it is going all within the process of playing; feeling the sound to be comple…
Most Materiall
"Double album, double solos of two distinctive musicians, becoming duets in a relatively rare space between solo playing and ensemble. Reed and percussion start at different places, the working through breath, the other pulse of materials being struck, one typically characterised by line, the other by attack, producing in the first pitch configurations, in the second beat patterns (Eddie Prévost doesn't use the specifically pitched mallet instruments). Each player comes with a distinctive sonic …

Japalm
Huge Tip! 200 copies. Japalm is a place in a vague geography, a place of memory and an abyss, fantasies and melancholies that take the names of imaginary cities.

Japalm is the second record from Hampar Soum, as well as the duo second work with Matteo Castro's label, Second Sleep. Hampar Soum are Stefano Scattolin and Guido Mo…

Change Up The Groove
Dive into the vibrant soundscape of the 1970s with “Change Up the Groove”, a hidden gem from Roy Ayers Ubiquity's early years on Polygram. Often overlooked compared to his more famous records, this work overflows with soul and is a true masterclass in fusing jazz and funk, perfectly capturing Ayers' evolution as he connected his jazz roots with the sharp, driving rhythms of 1970s funk. From the very first track, Ayers' signature vibraphone shines brightly, bringing emotion and rhythm. The album …

Rejoining
Before history will be made by machines, British musician Thomas Bush sends a new humane record. DIY chamber music, for the Kashual, no Plastik. Ten curious arrangements, looking for new horizons, those hiding behind the previous. They are short, they are epic. A great beautiful mess, in which Thomas Bush occasionally sings and speaks in veiled pitch. On hallucinated rhythms. Along the guitar, that’s everywhere. As chord. As melody. As sound. As a sliding desert stoner. Droning, zoning. Keeping …
