Belong To The Wind
For all those who relate "maybe to the wind, because they can feel it, or dirt, because they can touch it. But nothing else." Like Bobby Cornett (aka Shane), we are all trying to find where we belong.
Belong To The Wind marks Forager Records' debut release: A lovingly curated collection of crooning psychedelic folk and soul songs gathered from American 45s of the 1970s. The compilation features 10 songs from 10 different acts, each with an indelible story of love, loss, loneliness, and an unrele…

Throat
Tip! *In process of stocking.* Throat is an examination of using site-specific and unusual acoustic environments as a catalyst for compositional expression as well as a tool to transform and transcend the timbral and aesthetic qualities associated with the recorder as an instrument. The 5 pieces on the record are written for, and recorded in, the following spaces: 1) Brønshøj Vandtårn: the massive cathedral-like water tower with approximately 15 seconds of reverb is shrouded in modal harmony and…

Sequence
Following his trio debut ‘Triptych’ last year, trumpeter Matthias Lindermayr presents his duo record ‘Sequence’ with long-time companion and ECM Recording Artist Matthieu Bordenave on tenor saxophone. In contrast to its technical title, ‘Sequence’ is a very lyrical record, sacral at times. Like two figure skaters, the voices gracefully glide along and whirl around in perfect synch, always sensing where the other one is going. A fitting comparison also, as the recording session was equally exhaus…
Egomachia
After a very long silence finally here comes the brand new album by this Italian-Archeo-Industrial project. „Egomachia = the fight of the ego“ is the concept behind this album. Album is divided in three sectors which corrispond to the 3 Parche: Clòto, Làchesi, Àtropo. Nothing is casual in Egomachia, like the ennagono that contains the symbol of the 9-sided TQTR logo, like the letters of Egomachia. Egomachia was entirly played with non traditional instruments (all of them are unique and handcraft…
Sharks And The Female Form / Tight Fitting Armor
Sharks and the Female Form. The aesthetics and patterns of a woman’s physical form violently and tragically manipulated in the arts:
Painting“You have dared to torture the female who was so certain he would always be adored! You have scourged her, flogged her in all her pride; you have emptied her breasts, creviced her belly, blown up her buttocks, twisted her legs, battered her face! And over it all you have spread a noxious color, composed of all the reds of blood and the greens of putrefactio…

The tracks …

Shebang
Tip! Extended guitar hero Oren Ambarchi returns with Shebang, the latest in the series of intricately detailed long-form rhythmic workouts that includes Quixotism (2014) and Hubris (2016). Like those records, Shebang features an international all-star cast of musical luminaries, their contributions recorded individually in locations from Sweden to Japan yet threaded together so convincingly (by Ambarchi in collaboration with Konrad Sprenger) that it’s hard to believe they weren’t breathing the s…
Context
Tip! *In process of stocking. 300 copies limited release* Over almost three decades of activity, Marhaug has carved out notoriety as a solo performer, a prolific collaborator (working with everyone from Sunn O))) to Jim O'Rourke) and as a busy producer, who's notched up credits on some of the most striking-sounding albums of the last few years. This new album was created as a swan song for the infamous Oslo studio that he's inhabited for 17 years, prior to his move back to the Arctic Circle wher…

Microscale Deploy Knob (zyf)
*Clear lathe cut square 7" limited to 33 copies. In process of stocking* 'The machines are talking to each other, but they don’t know we’re listening.

Darkland
Tip! Maston’s Darkland is a breezy collection of the material from the Tulips sessions that didn’t make it on to the original LP. Originally a digital-only release for those in the know in the autumn of 2018, after re-issuing Tulips in 2020 it made too much sense for Be With to give Darkland a vinyl release.
Like Tulips, Darkland was recorded mostly in Hoorn, in the Netherlands, between 2015-2017 during downtime from Frank’s touring duties with Jacco Gardner’s band. Bits were also done in Los An…
Panorama
Tip! With Panorama, Frank Maston pays homage to the classic era of library records and Italian soundtracks of the 70s. A blissed-out, grooving collection of filmic cues, it continues the unique brilliance of Tulips and Darkland. Elegant and easy, subtle and stylish, breezy and beautiful; this is his Maston-piece. Commissioned by legendary label KPM, Panorama cements Maston as a master of modern classics and the most mesmeric of contemporary composers.
In early 2020, Be With suggested to Frank th…
Open Space Motion (Underscores)
They say: "Contemporary synthesizer sounds illustrating wide open space activities, environment and research."We say: Panoramic proto-techno underwater-electro library dynamite.
One of the hardest pulls on the seminal Coloursound, Open Space Motion (Underscores) isn't just regarded as one of the best releases from library-funk overlord Klaus Weiss. It's one of the very best library records ever.
As cult as it gets when it comes to library music, the Klaus Weiss sound was built on top of sometime…
