Zweifarbige Gesten
Beautiful debut full-length album for Jennifer Veillerobe, a french-german musician, co-curator of senufo editions and one half of ‘eselsohr ’. The CD is centered around a minimal sequence of sonic events, alternating between modular synthesizer patterns / textures and simple acoustic gestures captured with a portable digital recorder. realised without any processing or overdubbing; the cd is an attempt to define a narrative using nothing but sharp edits and careful sequencing of non-homogeneous…
Theology
"The CD "Theology" contains the source recordings used for the LP "The Religious Experience", and is limited to 450 copies. The two albums ­ and their music ­ should be considered as mirror opposites. Where theology is a completely artificial system of belief, a religious experience is the immediate experience of the thing itself. Likewise, the music on "Theology" is complex and elaborate, while "The Religious Experience" is much simpler, going directly to the heart of the material compri…
Perpetuum Mobile
estocked, reduced price: Perpetuum Mobile is the result of a uniquely schizophrenic 'open source' compositional process: the UK's finest collage composers (collage-posers?) Ergo Phizmiz and People Like Us (aka Vicki Bennett) uploaded files to a shared server, downloaded and processed each other's work, and flung the resulting fragments back at each other. The result is an interpenetrating audio-collage so intricate that neither party can recall who did what to whom. So far, so avant-garde; but w…

13 Japanese Birds In A Bag
Shortly after ordering this 14 CD set; I read a newspaper article about the plight of the Eurasian cuckoo whose habitat is being gradually destroyed both in Britain and abroad. It is this type of threat to birdlife that inspired Japanese ‘noise music’ meister and long-time animal activist Masami Akita’s (aka Merzbow) 2009 album series, “13 Japanese Birds”. Now the entire set, plus a new CDR and piece of screen print art-work have been reissued as “13 Birds In A Bag”, with a navy blue eco-f…

beautiful catalogue + cd edition, the cd contains a field recording of the installation ear(th), which was a collaboration with two scientists from cal tech - Ann Polsenberg-Thomas, and Mark Simons.

It was comissioned by the Williamson Gallery at Art center college of design for The tender land festival. The CD was d…

Getting It Together In The Country
Very rare, original and now long deleted 10"  by Canadian artist Rodney Graham, a conceptual artist and long time Bruce Nauman associate that  subverts distinctions of format and genre, and the result is an entertaining and intelligent artist's ''book.'' "Getting it Together in the Country" consists of an LP and an extensive text insert. The LP contains recordings of Graham improvising on the guitar to the legendarily surrealistic mass love scene Michelangelo Antonioni's film "Zabriskie Poi…
One stone and arcs and ears
this 7" was created for the exhibition "invisible other" at the new american art union in portland oregon. in the original installation the 7" sat on a turntable that could be activated by viewers. here are some notes that accompanied the work... the sound was created by editing out all of the speaking out of the soundtrack LP of robert bresson's film "proces de jeanne d'arc".    
THE PIONEERS: Five text-sound artists
Sound poetry and other text sound experiments from Sweden from the 60's.Lars-Gunnar Bodin, Ilmar Laaban, Sten Hanson, Ake Hodell, Bengt Emil Johnson.
Jean Tinguely
Awesome and obscure release, the music on this disc is a collection of awesome noisy sound works establishing Tinguely in the tradition of Luigi Russolo’s noise machines or John Cage’s Imaginary Landscapes. Tinguely’s sculptures rotating parts create awkward rhythm patterns, metallic rattlings and loud percussion sounds, more often than not on the verge of falling apart. Similar sounds can be heard in Jean-Marc Vivenza’s robust take on ‘bruitisme’ or Pierre Bastien’s self-build mecano instrument…

Un biglietto del tram
"Un biglietto del tram" is an historical album, featuring some of the most important, militant, political and proletarian fighting songs of the Seventies. Stormy Six sound is acoustic here, but it does not copy the anglo-american folk style; in fact it shows a very personal and original approach and a mediterrean influence. This CD is a milestone of the italian Seventies music scene!Available in the usual BTF deluxe papersleeve CD series with gatefold cover and detailed booklet with vintage phot…
Dots
One of their miraculous duo result is their first CD "Territory" (dmf-112, 2006). This work, "DOTS" is even more overpowering, speed, ramified rhythm, edits, and so on. First, they recorded their improvised music in studio, then they overdubbed various sounds, edited the materials and mixed different effects into the tunes. This is the music for the prog rock, math rock, post rock fans. Dense and Fiery !

In attesa, nel labirinto
One of their best releases so far - "Gruppo ormai storico che si avvicina a un nobile, quanto discreto, ventennale e che ha alle spalle un'assidua militanza tra le fila dell'industrial più sotterraneo, soprattutto in tempi come gli anni '80 in cui certi generi erano relegati a qualcosa di più marginale della semplice nicchia, i Tasaday si richiamano con questo loro ultimo lavoro In attesa, nel labirinto al …

Polvere
Xabier iriondo and mattia Coletti. Polvere by some means is the avant/kraut folk project of this couple of musicians and beside the experimental/post-psychedelic characteristics of the cd it shows their melodical/acoustic virtues.

Digital tranquilizer ver. 1.01
"19 minute EP from Otomo, his first this week. All manner of high pitched or just plain aggravative tones juxtaposed in a not-entirely-un-Mego/Ikeda-like fashion. Rather non-sleep inducing. By a long shot. Good for what ails you though." -- Hrvatski.
