Déploiement de L’immuable
Laure Boer & Franz Wrakhowitch did again. They left our lands, for being Édition d’Art, their free-floating project with no logic. This time harvesting industrialised drones, tones, n zones, where rhythm, melody, and the idea of musical form gets challenged. Some say, they say, that the album's concept was to create cut-ups from tea bag sayings, just to poke some fun at the effective and comforting healing of the soul. If “Déploiement de l’immuable” can heal, is yet to be decided. It can steal. …

This is Eastley's first solo CD. Of the 35 tracks, only the last 2 have any guests or 'playing' (the most virtuosic moment being George Lewis playing a grass blade).

Songbirdsongs
Songbirdsongs is among John Luther Adams’ seminal works. This is the first time the cycle appears on CD. Although music has been written involving the sounds of birds for centuries, no composer has ever approached the concept in this way. Based on Adams’ observations and studies of actual bird songs, he scored them for various ensembles of piccolos, ocarinas, flutes and percussion. Rather than having a fixed score, each piece consists of a collection of unordered phrases for each instrument. T…
