began with a Festival of New Trumpet commission in 2007. Recorded live
at Abrons Art Center in New York City as part of the 2015 Tectonics NY

electronic, and noise worlds–working together to rea…
Motives For Recycling
2024 stock. The fashionable term “remix” is often based on a misunderstanding. To re-mix a piece of music means to mix all tracks of a multi-track recording in a new way. Putting the complete piece (the sum of all tracks) through the wringer means “recycling”. Before starting the recycling two questions might arise: “Why recycle this piece?” and “Are the structure and sound of the piece convenient for recycling?” The ability to answer these questions depends more or less on the artist’s percepti…
Pah'
Edition of 150 copies. Seymour Wright and Paul Abbott have yet to become household names in America, even within the confines of experimental and improvised music circles. XT: Pah’ (POTTR1306) on Pleasure of the Text Records is the document that will change all that. Pah’ is a monolithic document of the shared improvisational language of saxophonist Seymour Wright and percussionist Paul Abbott, also known as XT. One piece, just under eighty minutes long, begins in the well-traveled territory of…
The Complete Syllables Music
The Complete Syllables Music is the first collected edition of trumpet experimentalist Nate Wooley’s groundbreaking solo compositions. His attempt to sidestep a positive/negative value based musical aesthetic and to expand his own preconceptions of what the trumpet tone should be led him to the construction of a new compositional language, based on adjusting the physical parameters of how one makes sound. This new way of thinking was based on the shape and positioning of the oral cavity necessar…
Schwingungen

Originally recorded and released in 1972, this edition on MIG has been remastered by band leader Manuel Gottsching. Recommended for fans of Saucerful of Secrets era Pink Floyd. Sprawling, tripped out improvisational acid rock! Julian Cope's review on Schwingungen in Krautrocksampler (Head Heritage, 1995): "'Beware of Schwingungen!' That should…
Join Inn
CD - Remastered by Manuel Göttsching. The original Ash Ra Tempel line-up got together to record Join Inn during breaks in the Tarot album recordings. The album's two lengthy tracks were completely improvised. The first, 'Freak 'n Roll' is basically self-explanatory(!) with Manuel Gottsching coming into his own with his talented, bluesy upbeat improvisations. 'Jenseits' (Beyond), on the other hand, is a showcase for Klaus Schulze's then new-found electronic sound painting skills. The lyrics on th…
7 Types of Ambiguity - A Parade
Arto Lindsay's 7 Types of Ambiguity - A Parade is a stereo mix of an original sound installation that was installed at ECAL / University of Arts and Design, Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2022 as part of a research project led by Thibault Walter and Stéphane Kropf called Phantom Power. The idea was simple, and yet the process and level of collaborative work implied was enormous: how to recreate a carnival parade -of the kind Arto had witnessed in the streets of Bahia in Brazil numerous times- inside …

Stop-Motion Happening With The Focus Groop
*2023 stock* "Generally, a focus group will end up giving you something bland and beige, a lowest common denominator which nobody particularly loathes but nobody especially loves. Not this Focus Groop. _Stop-_Motion Happening is an unnerving, fairly bonkers stream of treated electronica and samples which absolutely refuses to do anything conventional. It’s as if wayward ghosts of Italian horror movie soundtracks, the spirit of psychedelia and a spaceship full of pissed-off computers were having …
