Bap-Tizum
The Art Ensemble of Chicago's complete 45-minute set from the Ann Arbor Blues & Jazz Festival, 9 September 1972, first issued by Atlantic in 1973 and now back in print, remastered by Moritz Illner.
Still Thirsty
Alto saxophone, clarinet, voice and drums: Akira Sakata and Nicolas Field, recorded live at Cave12 in Geneva in 2019, a follow-up to First Thirst and three pieces of raw, unresolved exchange.
Maris Stella
Tristan da Cunha turns isolationism into liturgy: one slow minimalist opus where guitar, viola, drums and bass act as a pocket orchestra, moving between tonal and atonal in post-drone and choral haze.
Clangòre
Computer-generated scores played by hand, human performances reshaped into synthetic sound: Eric Culm lets the acoustic and the electronic dissolve into an ambiguous third state.
The Future Is Fire
Aluminum guitar, dark synthetic textures and avant-garde noise meet confessional voices on a double LP from Naples about identity and awareness, closing as an elegy for a world that no longer exists.
Tapes 1992-1994
Super limited reissue of the seven early G.R.O.S.S. cassettes (1992-1994) by Kyoto noise artist Aube, one CD per tape, each built from a single sound source, in a white box with the original artwork.
