*200 copies limited edition* Self-released private press style LP from Jonas Torstensen, distributed by Discreet Music. Grainy and broken singer/songwriter music, one of the major highlights so far in what is already a rather astonishing discography! "This record is an attempt on doing an album of songs. I recorded it in the first half of 2025. I played all the instruments with varying luck. It’s quite different from what I wanted it to be, mostly because of my lack of technical skills, but I’m…

Chamber Music
Tip! Turin is a city of crumbing facades and fading surfaces. A memorial to regal splendour and industrial boom. Behind every door is a different world. Pass through a grand double-door in the southern part of the city into a quiet courtyard, through into a small room with a high ceiling and cracked white coving. The room holds a modest studio set up, everything laid out as if the occupant just left. It’s a workshop, littered with blank cassettes, sepia-tinted journals and unidentified family sc…

Alchemical Theatre
Friends and musical cohorts since the early 1980s, these three master improvisers come together to perform a freewheeling set of outrageous and mind-blowing improvisations. Recorded at Roulette, founded in 1978 and one of New York’s most adventurous venues, the music is full of surprising twists and jumps from one mood to another with mercurial synchronicity. Dedicated to the memory of Downtown theatrical genius Richard Foreman, “Alchemical Theatre” presents nine pieces of tele-pathic, counter-i…

Recorded live at Club U.F.O. in Tokyo and crafted during the 2020 shelter-in-place period, this collaboration radiates both raw energy an…
Quarteto Em Cy
Originally released in 1972 on the Odeon label, Quarteto Em Cy stands as a high-water mark in the group’s prolific discography—and a hidden gem for collectors of Brazilian vinyl. Known for their intricate vocal harmonies and deep roots in the bossa nova movement, the quartet ventures into post-bossa territory here, where sophistication meets groove in all the right ways.Arrangements by Edu Lobo and Luiz Eça (of Tamba Trio) lend the album a richly layered sound—elegant, jazzy, and emotionally res…
¿crees Que Soy Sexy? / El Travoltoso
Once again, Peru manages to surprise us. From the heights of the Andes come two incredible recordings that show how local folklore has embraced international hits—resulting in fun, unexpected fusions with adistinct Andean twist. ‘Do You Think I’m Sexy?’, Rod Stewart’s 1978 classic, is transformed into a powerfulhuayno anthem—complete with driving percussion and bold brass that almost echo the sound of a New Orleans street parade. Raw, energetic, and unmistakably Andean. On the flip side, we find…
T h a l le
The thallus refers to a plant without roots or leaves: lichens, algae. A presence in the world that unfolds discreetly, like a tree covering or a blanket over the sea. t h a l l e is, for me, a subject of randomness and correlation. How do desynchronized elements form a harmonic whole? I can feel great joy in organizing the chaos of these materials, which, through tiny encounters, align in the same time. t h a l l e is also an exploration of vast temporalities, from the smooth time of organ piec…
or, Urim
Mark Harwood follows up his 2022 offering with the new album, or, Urim.
