Duo Live 1995
This is the long-awaited new CD release of percussionist Masahiko Togashi's previously unreleased recordings, supervised by Mitsuhiko Sato. In this ultimate performance, Yuji Takahashi steps away from playing computer and synthesizer and randomly utters texts he has written (mostly from his own book "Kafka"), while Togashi responds with perfectly tuned percussion. This is the ultimate performance, a century-old discovery that shines brilliantly in the history of free music.
Apices
Long-awaited re-release at a middle price of this classic and popular album, the last collaboration of Steve Lacy, Masahiko Togashi, and Masahiko Sato. Year of recording: October 15, 2000 / Location: Fukaya Hall Egg Farm

The Unguitarist : Complete Works, 1969-2022
Ohio-born Rick Deitrick took up the guitar at 16 and decided to approach his playing as if he was the only guy on an island and the instrument had just washed ashore one day. According to Rick, "I completely divorced my playing from any formal music knowledge, but it was very important to me to use original tuning. During those years, the ‘60s/70's, there was a lot of acoustic guitar playing, often using open tuning as a base. I wanted to create whole tones without de-tuning and keep access to t…
Ethio Jazz
Finally repressed, 180gram vinyl. The Ethio Jazz album by Mulatu Astatatke is a jewel of the modern Ethiopian music. Essential. An incredibly groovy Ethiopian record, originally from 1969-1972. Amazing orchestral 'Ethio-groove' filled with US soul, jazz, sometimes Latin and the deepest Eastern rhythms, even including some great nasty and dirty fuzz guitars. A true gem of Ethiopian modern instrumental music, which illustrates perfectly this symbiosis of strong rhythms and quality arrangements of…
Sightsong
The reputation of members of the AACM (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians), of which Abrams is a founding member, has long been one of adventurous, dangerous, and difficult music. But in fact, much of the music created out of this organization shows enormous appreciation of the blues and earlier jazz forms. Sightsong is a splendid case in point. The album opens with four duets (two dedicated to Chicago legends Wilbur Ware and Johnny Griffin) which have a swing, a groove, and a…

'I started with music very late. I was 27 years old. In the early 80s Florence became the music capital of the new rock in Italy.

Bush Brothers & Space Rangers
Bush Brothers & Space Rangers sees Oneness Of Juju at the peak of their powers in 1977. Oneness had enjoyed two fruitful years with Black Fire prior to these recordings, breaking through with the African Rhythms and Space Jungle Luv albums. “When we recorded African Rhythms we didn’t use a guitar,” explains bandleader Plunky Branch. “So, when vocalist Jackie Eka-Ete and guitarist Ras Mel Glover came in around ‘75, that moved our sound into a more soulful direction. The drummer on this album, Ton…
