In Resonance With Elsewhere
"Composer-performer & visual artist Charlotte Hug: Shaman of contemporary music. Reflections on her solo-album «In Resonance with Elsewhere». This fourth solo album by Charlotte Hug presents the distilled version of a composition commissioned by the Ruhrtriennale in 2022. On that occasion, Hug performed in a huge former machine hall and created various acoustic-imaginary spaces with Son-Icons (expansive Visual-Music on semi-transparent paper, usually painted on both sides with both hands and lon…
Raging Bulgakov
Simon Nabatov has undertaken one of the most unusual projects in contemporary music, an intense scrutiny and setting to music of modernist Russian literature, much of it taken from the years of Stalinist censorship, repression and imprisonment. For 25 years, beginning with Josef Brodsky’s Nature Morte, he has set text in partially improvised settings, including excerpts from Isaac Babel’s grim Red Cavalry and poems by Daniil Kharms and the Gileya group. Along with that largely poetic enterprise,…
Industry
The performance and recording are one continuous set. Track markers have been added for convenience:. 
Liner notes:

 "This project began as Centrifugal Trio, with Bishop, Borghini, and Griener, recorded in the studio zentri-fuge in Berlin in September 2019 and released on the Astral Spirits label.

 For my visit to Berlin in 2022, I wanted to expand the group, and invited the wonderful Mia Dyberg on alto, who I had played with earlier at Sowieso in Berlin, and whose recording Ticket!  (Clean Fe…
SoundScapes # 3 Festival Munich - 2021 SchwereReiter
'14 musicians from nine different countries went on a sound journey directed only by their own musical fantasy, no borders – except one, more about that later. The venue, the newly built „Schwere Reiter“ in Munich, is perfect for this: clear acoustics, clear architecture. In the middle of the covid pandemic, in a short time when concerts were possible, such an intense and open exchange could happen, two days in a row, on October 1st and 2nd 2021 – a stroke of luck. A music that moves, stimulates…
The Dialogues
“The Dialogues” recalls the early jazz journeys of its creators, blending decades of musical growth into intimate conversations between violin and double bass. Drawing from jazz, classical, and contemporary influences, the album captures pure, wordless musical dialogue.
The First Touch
What an opportuunity ! On the suggestion of Maciej Karlowski, percussionist Ramón López invited me to play in Lublin Jazz Festival. From a list of great musicians who might join us to form a trio the name of Trevor Watts was one that immediately excited me for quite a few reasons: Firstly, he along with John Stevens , Paul Rutherford , Evan Parker and Derek Bailey allowed me as a novice to enter into the rarified world of The Spontaneous Music Ensemble. I was a total greenhorn in free improvisat…
Bee Space
There aren’t many all-female vocal groups in the world of improvised music, even fewer of them are working bands, and there are very few projects that are anything more than that. VoiceACT, conceived by Anna Gadt, is exactly that. VoiceACT is, above all, a platform for artistic exploration, generally without specific stylistic characteristics, but operating according to the sacred principle of free creation, to which each invited artist contributes whatever resonates in their improvisational sou…
Syrena:re
Syrena:re is a concept programme by Ania Karpowicz and Dominik Strycharski for two flutists and tape. It reinvents and recycles musical motifs released on vinyl by the iconic Syrena Rekord label in pre-war Warsaw. The tape features poignant voices of synagogue cantors, fragments of popular songs, and blended sounds of the Shmul Weinberg orchestra. By using extended techniques and a variety of flutes representing diverse timbres, the artists combine the work of memory with unconstrained improvisa…
This Anger is a Liar
Fundacja Słuchaj proudly announces the release of This Anger is a Liar, a searing new album from the powerhouse trio of Portuguese saxophonist José Lencastre, bassist João Hasselberg, and Danish drummer Kresten Osgood. Captured in a single, electrifying studio session, this collection of fully improvised music confronts fury, deception, and catharsis head-on, transforming personal turmoil into collective triumph. Lencastre's tenor sax cuts through like a blade—fierce, lyrical, and unyielding—whi…
Stillness in their isolation
low volume listening highly encouraged. for a while now, i've been fascinated in the sensory threshold, the moment in between sensing or not, like when doing a hearing test; at one point you hear a sound and next you don't, but you're not quite sure. do you hear the beeps, something from outside or maybe something from inside yourself? for this project, i wanted to try and recontextualize loud traffic and constant hum of air conditioning units into a quiet, nearly inaudible form as the hustle an…
Raum Im Raum
The third and closing chapter of the "Raum" trilogy by an moku and stefan schmidt – "Raum Im Raum" serves finely crafted ambient / soundscapes, and is the most intense and darkest album of the series.
Sky Flesh
If there's one specific component that grounds Sky Flesh, it's focus. Italian musician and sound designer Marta De Pascalis flexed her technical muscle on 2020's Sonus Ruinae, layering various sounds and processes in an attempt to touch the sublime. In contrast, Sky Flesh is a single thought, composed using just one instrument: the Yamaha CS-60. A slimmed-down sibling to the gargantuan CS-80 -- the analog synthesizer used by Vangelis to create his iconic Blade Runner score -- the CS-60 was relea…
Farewell to the Night
Farewell to the Night by Ethan Syann is an immersive album released through the IIKKI label, offering a contemplative journey through ambient and cinematic textures. Spanning six tracks, it gently blurs the boundary between experimental soundscape and evocative minimalism, creating a space for reflection and nocturnal introspection. Its subtle layers and atmospheric depth exemplify Syann’s refined and measured approach to sound design.​
Agua Larga: Traditional & Imaginary Cimarron Music
Agua Larga offers an immersion into the Afro-Ecuadorian culture of the province of Esmeraldas. The authors have captured how music is part of the daily life of the inhabitants, and how it interacts with the other sound elements that surround it. The musical material is thus accompanied by stories, poems and scenes of everyday life captured on the spot, far from aseptic studios, in public spaces, on river banks or by the sea. The guiding theme is water ("agua" in Spanish), in all its forms. It wa…
Stolen Scars
The five-channel sound installation "Stolen Scars" by Eiki Mori was exhibited in the "Takamatsu Contemporary Art Annual vol.10 There Is No Boundaries Here./?” at the Takamatsu Art Museum from February 11 to March 21, 2022. And this is the documentary soundtrack of that work. “There is a boy who has been deeply hurt, heartbroken and has not recover yet. You can’t talk to him or rub his back. Instead, you can only ring this bell for him.” When Mori created "Stolen Scars,” he first sent a handbell …
Near the Bear
Near the Bear is Cheryl E. Leonard’s intimate Arctic meditation, interweaving field recordings and natural objects into five cinematic pieces that speak to both the wildness and vulnerability of Svalbard and Greenland’s landscapes.
Currents and Orders
Teresa Rotschopf, a musician and composer from Vienna, presents her second solo album, »Currents and Orders« – a radical, delicate, yet grandiose sonic journey between experimental pop, new music, and improvised composition. The album will be presented live on August 27 as part of the »Pop-Kultur« festival (silent green, Berlin) and at the »ORF RadioKulturhaus« (Vienna) on 12 September. »Currents and Orders« was recorded in an unusual location: a stalactite cave in Styria, Austria. Together with…
Wild Noise Hall
*2024 stock* "Since the early 70's and Luc Ferrari's Presque Rien N°1, we are now offered the possibility to listen to any sound coming from natural phenomenons and soundscapes as musical composition. We can listen to them as any audio-naturalist do, enjoying the different species of animals and sounds from the storm, the rain, the wind, and the space in between echoing all of them. But we can also listen to them as sounds in an acousmatic way, forgetting the different animals, the storm, the ra…
Megaptera
Original Soundtrack taken the Movie the Musician and the Whale, Megaptera, the scientific name of the humpback whale, is also the title of the new album by French producer and composer Rone. Born from an ambitious film project, the record was largely composed at sea, off the coasts of Brittany and Réunion Island, using a modular synthesizer and melodic sketches developed for an almost unreal proposition: attempting to resonate with whales through music. Following Room With a View—a soundtrack to…
Tracing Basalt in the Onsernone Valley
Tracing Basalt in the Onsernone Valley by Pablo Diserens and Ludwig Berger transforms the Swiss valley’s basalt terrain into a living instrument, blending environmental recordings and experimental acoustics into a meditative portrait of place and presence.
