Definition
Definition was the only album by the American psych folk band Chrysalis, released in 1968 on MGM Records. Together with their Velvet Underground label mates, Chrysalis, were considered pioneers of the art rock movement, thanks to their sublime vocal melodies and baroque arrangements -- ageless psych acid folk gems!

Formed, like Soft Machine, from the grou…
Seeds
Alan James Eastwood's glorious Seeds is a certified folk-funk lost-classic. But who was Alan James Eastwood? He had never hit the big time and commercial success eluded him. By the mid-1970s, his musical career was pretty much over and he was almost unknown except among deep heads, amongst whom he would gain cult status.
Original copies of the 1971 vinyl release of Seeds exchange hands for high sums, if you can find one. This expanded 2LP contains an extra record, collecting 9 rare non-album sin…

Isabella Gellis’s The Dissolute Society Comprised of All Sorts is a formidable debut for solo piano, performed by Joseph Havlat.

Tecnocreto (Book)
Tecnocreto, Gwenaël Rattke’s third book for Visible Publications, began during an extended stay in Mexico City in 2019. Collecting images and graphics, Rattke made daily collages in a large blank book to form a long, continuous montage.

Much of the book’s initial inspiration came from a 1970s construction company directory Rattke found in a second-hand bookstore in …
