Brutes And Savages
Quartet Records, in collaboration with the Riz Ortolani estate, presents the expanded vinyl edition of one of the titles most requested by maestro Ortolani’s fans: the bizarre 1978 mondo movie Brutes And Savages (aka Savana Selvaggia)
Written by Jenny Craven and directed by Arthur Davis, this belongs to the select group of mondos that became notorious not for their shocking content, but for their lack of understanding of the genre. Surviving in two different cuts (92 mins and 107 mins), Brutes A…
Recall The Dream Breath
*2024 stock. 250 copies limited edition* I recorded the album after a conversation with Caleb about doing an album for the label and talking through ideas of what it could look like - compared to my previous release, Heart Music (2022, Where to Now? Records), which was written and recorded over 1-1.5 yrs, Recall the Dream Breath was written and recorded within the span of 2 weeks in March 2021. Heart Music was written in quarantine more or less, so that album became very dense as I wasn't too co…
El rostro (des)cubierto
*75 copies limited edition* The unearthing of a song as a communal ritual, speaks of an intention that no longer sees itself but simply sees. “el rostro descubierto” embraces this way of seeing. Through streams of autonomy, impulse, and idiosyncratic sensibilities, the quartet coalesces around a commitment to the rigor of exploration and inquiry. The result is a collection of songs that reflect vulnerability, patience and care while exuding a binding trust in the process of collective creation. …
Country Tropics (Meridian Edition)
Reconfiguring the laments from their debut album, Old Saw distill a wilted and hollow reflection from their original recordings. Lines freshly traced, erased, and reassembled from cassette and reel-to-reel machines, presented here like new writing on an old postcard.
Pas De
*2024 stock* "Blanche Lafuente, Jeanne Guien, Nina Garcia, Thomas Dunoyer de Segonzac: no noise quartet post no post no wave no punk post noise post mama post everything: French chanson... A crawling bass, shredding drums, a lacerating scalpel-guitar, hijacked tape loops, bits of agit-pop poetry carried by chanted, melodramatic vocals." - le non_jazz

Canto Senza Parole (Allegria)
"Experimental chamber music from the German trio of Udo Schindler on tenor saxophone, bass saxophone & cornet, Eric Zwang Eriksson on percussion and Sebastiano Tramontana on trombone & voice, performing at BASIS_Klangraum in MUCCA, Munich, the title translating to "singing without words" from the poetry cycle "Il taccuino del vecchio" by Guiseppe Ungaretti." - SquidCo.com
In Search Of Surprise

Zamat
Three recent chamber works by the highly-regarded Slovakian composer Adrián Demoč. The title track 'Zamat' is a 10-minute quartet for clarinet, bass clarinet and cello, which uses slightly asynchronous Korean unisons throughout. 'Gebrechlichkeit' is a 25-minute string quartet., „...o protón jasu...“ is a new work lasting 30 minutes for two clarinets, viola and cello, commissioned by Another Timbre for this album.
Flowers of Emptiness
Eight chamber works by Canadian composer Linda Catlin Smith, beautifully performed by Apartment House. The album is structured around the first recordings of three of Linda's string quartets (tracks 1, 6 and 8), along with a short violin duo, a piece for clarinet, violin, cello and double bass, an early string trio, a very recent work for cello and piano, and a bass clarinet solo written for Apartment House regular Heather Roche. Together the pieces present a compelling portrait of the chamber m…

Bwa Ba Baw Boi
*2024 stock* Dwarf Lift Dwarf is a two-headed cerberus with crumpled masks of celestial rascals. His chirps sound like the call of a freshly deconditioned post-Hawaiian pizza. One mouthful leading to another, creepers and castrated quarterbacks arch perilously over putrid swamps where the spoils of a lucid duty-free tourist languish.
The intentions are clear: to emerge virtuous from the winter of 2020, accompanied by the priest of priests Flavio Bagnasco le Cremovo, aka Cremyeuse, on the double-…
Xerrox Vol. 5
Alva Noto returns to his much awaited Xerrox project with Vol. 4, the fourth installment of the five-piece intended series based on the concept of digital replication of source material.
Moot!
Repress of the stunning debut from Moin - experimental art rock/post-punk group made up of both Raime members and percussionist Valentina Magaletti. A serendipitous conversation brought the project to life. Moot! allowed the group to re-appreciate the recording process, using a combination of live recording and studio techniques. The album spans psych, alternative rock and post-punk mixed with their signature electronics and sampling practice.
The record was made as an experiment, to be enjoyed,…
