Arch of Motion
In recent years Swedish musician Linnéa Talp has grown interested in liminal spaces of sound, increasingly searching for her breath deep within passages of a song when instruments gently and patiently bridge the verses. In 2020 she released Cochlea, a brooding pop-rock record made under the name Deerest. “I’ve been trying to work with my body, my breath and my listening,” she says of her work since finishing that release. “I wanted to integrate a sense of slow and simple movement into the music—…
Fly By Night
Artist's notes: "Originally disseminated as a digital-only release on my now dormant label Pink Pamphlet in 2014, ‘Fly By Night’ now gets a proper release via the Stockholm label Thanatosis Produktion. Since my early 20s the electric guitar has been a constant companion and assistant in my compositional work. Although I'm a much better pianist than guitarist, I've often found my relatively poor “fretboard awareness” to be a valuable asset in terms of focussing my intuitive hearing away from my m…

391 | Vol.10 Friuli - Venezia Giulia - Voyage Through The Deep 80s Underground In Italy
Friuli and Venezia Giulia, have often been judged by some reviewers as some strange, exotic places, almost hidden in the upper right side of Italy's map. In fact, if compared to the average Italian habits, we got used to feeling marginal and eccentric. Yet, in the Eighties, Udine, being one of the main military service stations in the country, was a destination place for youngsters from all over Italy. Around six in the evening, the city center was literally invaded by an army of young people fr…

*2023 stock* "Sole album from one of the early wave groups (along with Moving Gelatine Plates, Sandrose etc) that progressively rocked France, Ergo Sum's music is sadly a bit over- looked, even by specialists. Their music was a rather unique genre of rock, jazz and so many other ingredients (but I would not call them a jazz-rock group proper), helped out by a violin, a flute and percussion instruments and weird-voiced singer. All ion all it is a very excellent album that will furbish your rock c…

391 | Vol.5 Liguria - Voyage Through The Deep 80s Underground In Italy
Spittle Records presents 391 Vol.5 Liguria - Voyage Through The Deep 80s Underground In Italy. TThe 391 project was born in 1983 from the desire of two troubled teenagers, from a boring provincial town, Ascoli Piceno, to give life and form to a series of compilations on tape, a picture of the Italian music underground. The name choice was intended as a tribute to the homonymous magazine of Dadaist New York, drawn by painter and poet Francis Picabia. The intent was to geographically organize the …
Gialorgues
*20233 stock* "Debut album released from this French outfit which has reached "cult status". "Gialorgues" has found its way onto many "best of" lists that I have seen and for good reason. Shylock are from the King Crimson school of progressive rock in style but have certainly their own unique style and delivery. For the most part Shylock were a three piece band who brought in some guest musicians along the way. Shylock deliver complex and involved prog which has a dark forboding theme and feelin…
Canzoni Dada, 1981-1985
"If this band from Vicenza found a place in Italian rock history, it is mainly because of their [1983] debut [self-titled] mini-LP... duly presented here at the beginning of the tracklist. I hope the frontman Sergio Volpato will forgive me if I say that, despite the quality of the following releases, their mythical status (small as it may be) is owed to that first piece of vinyl originally released by LM Records and coproduced by Discotape, a record store in Marostica. An enigmatic cover, a made…

Live Anywhere
*2023 stock* "Live Anywhere captures the duo incarnation of this Chicago electronic group. The band members seem to be young, so it's somewhat unsurprising that they draw influences from current electronic music. There's an element of chaotic noise from the Wolf Eyes school, and an element of synth freakiness reminiscent of artists like Keith Fullerton Whitman or Ben Vida. The surprising part is when historical referents sneak in — their approach to sound also reveals obvious traces of Bruce …

Reaction
*2023 stock* "That this is the first release by the courageous pianist Mario Rusca, born in Turin in 1937, and thus not that young anymore, can only be explained (and not justified) by circumstances such as described above. But there’s more to it. Though I really strive to support Italian jazz and to discover new talents, often by going against the tide, I hadn’t yet heard the name of Mario Rusca three years ago. It was Joe Venuti who introduced me to him in the spring of 1971, while he was stay…
