Sex Worker: The Complete Recordings
The Sex Worker series began in 2019, as a reflection on my relationship to the sex industry. There are three cassettes in the series - all out of print, and highly collectible - published by Total Black, with my take on power electronics and death industrial, channelling the emotions of rage, mania, depression, and lust, and featuring interviews and vocals from women in the sex industry from around the world, telling their stories, expressing their place in the industry.
The first two cassettes …
For The Love Of Hate/Noisient
*300 copies limited edition* In 2002 the now legendary label Cold Meat Industry released what would be the defining moment of Folkstorm´s career; "For the love of hate". The majority of the album was recorded "live in the studio" where Nordvargr and Ulvtharm just lay down trark after track with ferocious intensity and skill. You get all the classic face melting feedback noise and crushing industrial rhythms, enhanced by Nordvargrs angry vocal delivery, but also some calmer parts that gives you t…

Arteria
Over the past decade, saxophonist Makoto Kawashima has consistently established himself as one of the most compelling improvisers in contemporary music. His unique approach to solo performance aligns him with the tradition of groundbreaking Japanese saxophonists like Kaoru Abe, Tamio Shiraishi, and Masayushi Urabe. Operating at the fringes of improvised music, Kawashima's artistry unveils a delicate essence, placing equal focus on silence and minute detail alongside intense expressions of tone a…
To Hit A Pressure Point
Lao Dan's innovative approach to music seamlessly intertwines elements of rock, free jazz, and noise with textures of Chinese folk music, creating a unique tapestry characterized by improvisational and aesthetic tension. His fearless transgression of genres, infusing Chinese folk-tinged free jazz with the raw energy of punk, results in a compelling and dynamic listening experience.
Pressure Sensitive
Paula Sanchez is a musician working with sound in the intersection of experimental music, improvisation and performance art. Putting the body and materials to the limit, in the destruction, composition/decomposition of a mutable sound space. In the pure presence, of an embodied sound that invents relations as it makes its way into nothingness.
This album is the result of performative experimentations with cello and cellophane, and erotic encounters of transparent asphyxiation.
Vagabondage
Vagabondage comes from my idle wandering through the city and my inner relationship with it - where the unexpected takes me – I take it - desire driven. Assuming the discourse between the ruins of my memory and my present idleness, I seek to let the events influence my choices in a way they unfold from this relation between my personal history and reflected in my music through my interaction with the city.
This album was recorded in three different places of Lisbon: SMUP, Desterro and Casa do Co…
Réimsí Géara
Listening closely to the duo of Elliott Sharp and Scott Fields one can hear a compact history of modern composition and improvisation. Although the duo has a sound all its own, under the surface you can sense traces of “New Music,” minimalism, free jazz, and blues.
Poiēsis
In a spontaneous studio session, alto saxophonist Tim Berne met fellow saxophonist Masayo Koketsu and percussionist Nava Dunkelman for the first time, setting the stage for an improvisational encounter full of contrasts and surprising cohesion. Berne’s rich, dynamic tone, provided a grounded foundation, while Koketsu's innovative use of extended techniques and breathy, ethereal sounds—challenged the space with a more experimental edge.
Dunkelman, with her textural percussion, wove between the tw…
A Willing Passenger
Saxophonist Paul Flaherty is New England's purveyor of the ecstatic jazz pulse. Through the years, Flaherty remained unshakable in the pursuit of soul healing and demon dashing through freedom music. Six pieces of alto and tenor saxophone steeped in the theme of loss and channeled through blasting improvisations that showcase his fabulous wailing and inferno of sound to stark bluesy melodies.
"January 20, 2005 was a cold night in Washington D.C. A dozen bands would perform at the Black Cat venue…
Vents
Vents is seemingly a musical wind trio - humans playing with flutes, airdrums, bubbles… Although, in each set-up, material has its own vitality.
Pulsation
2025 much-needed repress. On May 27th 1983, drummer Masahiko Togashi and guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi, two pivotal figures in the Japanese free jazz scene that had been working together since the 1960's, performed and record this unique set at Zojoji Hall in Tokyo. At the time, Japanese jazz musicians were trying to find their own voice, welcoming creative elements coming in from the USA and Europe. The two musicians were at the fore-front of this generation, with Takayanagi developing his own …

xAj3z
SoiSong is the bright, stunning, and short-lived project conceived in 2007 by Ivan Pavlov (CoH) and Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson (of Coil). The duo combined Pavlov’s uncompromisingly-visceral digital aesthetics with Sleazy's decadent, dark and whimsical approach to creation. Primarily located on the Eastern Pacific Rim, the two named the project after the Thai word for ‘two’ (song), as well as the seedy red-light quarters ("gloomy Soi’s, or alley-ways") of Bangkok. Together, they developed a un…

Paysages Avec Figures Absentes - Nachlese IV, Nachlese Vb (Liederzyklus)
Paysages avec figures absentes - Nachlese IV “...Paysages avec figures absentes... was written for the violinist Isabelle Faust and dedicated to her. In this piece, I wanted to approach writing for violin and ensemble differently, and not reproduce the same relationship present in “...prisme-incidences...”. Here, it is more a question of a sort of antiphony, of responses. Often while writing the piece, in order to remain within this framework, I restrained myself from developing the solo violin …
Les Mortes
*2025 stock* The project is a musical composition that employs the technique of deriving and expanding upon the fragmentary. It is an investigation that is, in advance, lost in the midst of stories that come back again and again, told in disorder, illuminated from other angles or revealed by new links. Les Mortes is a sonic saga that brings together three musical ensembles with different aesthetics navigating among these bits and pieces of a whole of which we have only the echo.
Stories of a fun…
