Song Sentimentale
Outside of the 2CD release ‘Never Too Late But Always Too Early’ (Eremite, 2003) there has been scant documentation of one of the most dynamic pairings in all free jazz. Featuring unique material on each format Song Sentimentale rectifies this anomaly with a full blown audio account of the breathtaking communicative heights obtained by these three legends of the living. Over 3 nights in January 2015 the trio seduced a winter worn crowd with the kind of organic interplay only these three can conj…

Quiet Novosibirsk
From August 31 to September 10, 2014 Swiss musicians Jonas Kocher and Gaudenz Badrutt teamed up with St.Petersburg-based saxophone player Ilia Belorukov for a series of seven concerts in Russia. For this trip, they were accompanied by photographer Lucas Dubuis. All travellers documented their journey intuitively, collecting all kinds of audio and visual material.

For Tentou Mishima
Kazuo Imai (born in 1955) studied with Masayuki Takayanagi and Takehisa Kosugi, and has been performing improvised music since the 1970s. While his principal instrument is the guitar, he also makes extensive use of viola da gamba, electronics, everyday items and natural objects, freely performing music born of myriad sounds. This album is comprised of five pieces from Imai’s live performance on the final day of a solo exhibition by graphic artist Tentou Mishima (who died in 2012), held at the ga…
Titan
The organic depth of their album Titan is a bone chilling experience performed solely on drums, acoustic bass and a grand piano. Combining elements of minimalism, repetitive patterns, odd-time signatures and noise, Plaistow builds from the strong fundaments from previous works like The Crow, Lacrimosa and Citadelle.This group of amazing musicians is an organism of it’s own. No mathematics, no complicated array of notes. It’s not jazz, it’s not conceptual. The music on Titan is deeply rooted in g…
Instead of the Sun
Recorded in Sydney by Chris Abrahams and Burkhard Beins from January 5th to 9th, 2015. “I am quite a fan when it comes to the music on Abrahams, as he brings much energy and vibrancy to the table, and that is no different on this new release.It's quite difficult to dissect what is going on here. Should one not know who made this album, a blind test if you will, then one could easily think this is an album made with a modular synthesizer and perhaps very little something else; it is not easy to d…
Superonda
*in Italian only* Fuori dalla consueta diatriba Cantautori vs. Sanremo e Rock italiano vs. Musica leggera, Superonda è il racconto di quelle musiche che tra 1964 e 1976 riuscirono a sviluppare linguaggi originali e in grado per una volta di proiettare la musica italiana all’estero, esercitando una sotterranea influenza sul mondo dell’elettronica, del rock alternativo, e delle musiche sperimentali. Un percorso accidentato in cui le vicende di future icone nazionali come Ennio Morricone, Fra…
Professional Sunflow
Professional Sunflow is the first-time collaboration between Laraaji & Sun Araw, two colossal forces in contemporary electronic music. Laraaji's musical radiance has continued to shine brightly over four decades since being discovered by Brian Eno in New York's Washington Square Park in 1979. Sun Araw emerged out of Los Angeles' experimental scene in 2008 with transformative releases on a variety of trend-setting labels (Not Not Fun, Drag City and more).The live performances on this double LP – …

Son [Sound Improvisation]
Japanese sound artist Masami Tada had participated in the workshop of Takehisa Kosugi at Bigakko in 1970’s. His name is known as a main member of legendary improvisation group "East Bionic Symphonia" and "GAP" in mid '70s (both LPs released by ALM Records are extremely rare as you know). Nowadays Tada is mostly interested in photo installations and sound performance - he called 'sound encounter' - used many bamboo cylinder and some amplified objects.

Superimpositions
2016 repress. Superimpositions is the hyper-colored conceptual follow-up to multi-disciplinary Milanese artist, Lorenzo Senni's landmark LP, Quantum Jelly (EMEGO 152LP). It further consolidates, accelerates and evolves his idea of "Pointillistic Trance" -- an ascetic, extreme approach to the aesthetic essence of '90s-style trance/hard-trance -- with a broader range of song structures, minimalist moiré patterns, and tantric dancefloor arrangements, all executed to visceral impact and challe…
Westering Home
Fledg'ling are very proud to bring Westering Home to CD. Westering Homewas originally released in 1972. John Surman plays everything on the album, drawing together many of the threads of his earlier recordings with the possibilities offered by technology (and his own prodigious musicality). "I took a break from being on the road. This was just around the time when mono had become stereo, and then - in a flash - multi-track recording became possible. I was fascinated by the possibilities of, say,…
Shipwreck 4
All music by Bennett – Johnston – Mezzacappa – Rosaly. Recorded 10th January, 2015 by Myles Boisen and Jonah Strauss at Shipwreck Studios, Oakland, CA. Mixed by John Finkbeiner at New, Improved Recording, Oakland, CA
Kabouter Chismus
Kabouter Chismus was a short-lived project of Dutch singer-songwriter Nico Denhoorn and singer Minneke Walstra. This record represents a certain Dutch hippie movement that started out in the early sixties called Provo. Provo in Holland was one of the first worldwide movements of youth culture created in 1964 and in a way precedes many of the later proper hippie movements of America. It was very much influenced by Beat Generation writers, Marquis de Sade, Dada and anarchism. The Provo generation …
Tooth
Double LP version. Raime presents their second album, Tooth. The widescreen melancholia of their 2012 debut, Quarter Turns Over A Living Line, gives way to an urgent and focused futurism, in the shape of eight fiercely up-tempo, minimal, meticulously crafted electro-acoustic rhythm tracks. The DNA of dub-techno, garage/grime and post-hardcore rock music spliced into sleek and predatory new forms. No let-up, no hesitation. Needlepoint guitar, deftly junglist drum programming, brooding syn…
Changed Fool
"A couple years ago I received a demo in the mail which frankly blew me away the minute I hit play. Some of the best late night listening I’ve heard recently. Spencer is from Texas and his music has the same loner vibes as Charalambides and the early blues legends. Essential. 70 copies." (Sloow Tapes)
Shee and Other Poems
"Gianni Menichetti lives with his family of animals in a wild canyon near Positano, on the Amalfi coast in Italy. He wrote several chapbooks of poetry and also a beautiful memoir of Vali Myers. It took a while to get him recorded but here it finally is. Seeping with atmosphere and the occasional outdoors." (Sloow Tapes)
Cover illustrated with drawings by Gianni and handwritten text. 100 copies.
