Other Galaxies
"The great pianist Agusti Fernandez and I have had a strong musical connection and friendship for many years. We first worked together on a recording project led by the drummer Ramon Lopez in Valencia, Spain. After that we corresponded and eventually began our performances together during a residency of mine at The Stone in New York—the first of what is now, many other performances here and in Spain. We share many interests in music" - Joe Morris
Desciende
Tip! Limited edition of 50. Mexican visual and sound artist Concepción Huerta and Peruvian composer and flutist Camilo Ángeles, started working together on a collaborative duo in early 2018 in Mexico City.

la non-pareille
Tip! *Limited edition of 200 copies* Lava music, maybe. Lava music, always evolving, always surprising, always exciting because we don’t know what the other will bring to the music that we start improvising and exploring together. We’ll see what bubbles will form in this lava music and sometimes an idea comes up, a bubble pops and it becomes a track. Lava, like the wax that was melted to press the record. Lava, like energy flowing, slow. Improvising most of the time, you really connect with the …

Onomat
*43 copies limited edition* 'On his first solo album 'Onomat', Bill Harris, from Pittsburgh, who lives in Chicago, who is also the founder of the collective Amalgam, limits himself to his drum kit, microphones and amplification, producing a collection of striking sound sculptures. A good example where this approach leads is 'Mangosteen', in which the percussion movements are creatively distorted into an alienating stream of gritty sounds. We also find it in pieces like 'Razbliuto', only here it …
Visions of Krychlic
Edition of 70 copies. We are back with good old fashion live recording of two jingling guitars, just the way you like it. Two long tracks, some jokes in the middle and long loooong applause at the end, of course, because this show was so good, that it just had to be transferred onto tape. This recording is a perfect showcase of Arn's and Bogner's (aka Margaret Unknown) artistic versatility. On this eerie two acoustic guitar bonanza, they are giving a big nod to Derek Bailey with their mind boggl…
