Pure spontaneous music from three of the heaviest in contemporary music

The Yellow Princess
Re-mastered from the original analogue master tapes, pressed on 180 gram . Remastered edition, ultralimited and, unfortunately, pricey/ originally released in either 1968 or 1969 depending on your sources, The Yellow Princess saw a post-philosophy degree, subculture-aware John Fahey branching out from his earlier, more traditional work.

Gradeatia * Natural 1973-83
LP version. Finally available to a wider audience, here we have Octavian Nemescu's incredible music with this genuinely dark, ethereal quality that equally stems from his explorative naivety and a taste for evocative tone and structure, resulting in a phantastic sound which stands out from its era and has since fed forward into contemporary music. On this album we find two of his seminal works, pieces of ultra-vivid, immersive sound: Gradeatia composed in 1982, this piece was commissioned by the…
Puck
** Edition of 500, comes with 12-page “Puck” pamphlet + Two art cards with program notes** Sean McCann's Puck is here. Music for Public Ensemble, my previous album, was released three years ago. And three years before that was Private Ensemble. Puck is both public and private in nature. A smear of chamber works from Stockholm, Moscow, New York, and Kansas. Three aged personal recordings from 2008, 2009, and 2010 are also poured in the batter: a bedroom violin trio, ambient music, and a sad pl…

Tree Dancing
This recording from the earlier years of Cafe Oto documents the impossible pairing of four contemporary giants. It's the reason the venue opened in the first place, for miraculous one-off groupings like this. "The magic of the first minutes -- an alto solo by Joe McPhee of true purity -- soft-spoken, masterful and accomplished -- brought back to mind the blissful Coleman/Haden duet last year at the Royal Festival Hall. 'Ornette gave me freedom to move in a certain way,' said McPhee. He searched …
