Avant-Garde, "New Music", Now Playing>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Thanks for that. Sadly I don't do Vinyl either, so I guess I have to miss out. Glad to hear it's good though!

 

Great lp ain't it? Waiting for my vinyl reissue to come in. Almost sprung for an original for $100 the other day but have to draw the line somewhere.

 

Yeah it was awesome! Really enjoyed it. I hope the LP sounds great... Enjoy!

 

Paul Schutze and Phantom City - Site Anubis.

With Bill Laswell, Raoul Bjorkenheim, Lol Coxhill, Alex Buess, Dirk Wachtelaer, Julian Priester.

 

Paul Schultze is so underrated. Everything he does is worth a listen.

 

Just in case you didn't know, he released a new album earlier this year called The Sky Torn Apart.

 

Thomas Koner - Nuuk.

 

It's super pricey, but La Monte Young's The Well-Tuned Piano in The Magenta Lights DVD is back in print (like halfway down the page):

Mela Foundation Store

Feel like it was quite a bit more than this to pick up a prior copy 2nd hand though...

 

Keith Rowe/Graham Lambkin: Making A

On erstwhile records

 

Well it was new music when I bought it all those years ago, new.

 

I won't deny that it's tempting...

 

Beautifully recorded by Marc Aubort.

 

Ah, but a second hand copy would more likely be a first edition. I just checked; these new ones are clearly marked "third edition" and come in an entirely different packaging than the original.

 

I checked the new edition, and honestly I don't care what edition it is. That said, the price of the new edition is a bit over the top, imo. You'd think $50 would be more than enough.

 

Another wonderful disc. It's a bit like listening to the Number Stations. Sort of. Great stuff.

 

Jason Lescalleet - Songs About Nothing

Disc 1 - 12 short pieces totalling ~ 40 minutes

Disc 2 is the continuous piece / I’ll get to that later

I’ve enjoyed this release since I got it but this AM it made a very strong impact for whatever reason

Incredibly creative dynamic electronic castle building

On Erstwhile Records (I think it’s OOP)

Reminds me of when I saw him solo at The Stone maybe in 2012 or so. Loudest set of music maybe ever but it was clear and mind blowing.

 

I still have that complete set. They sold for $2.00 new.

 

I always liked that period of Arthur Berger’s music. Very clear and economical.

 

Boy this is good. Really good. I am reminded of David Lang's The Passing Measures - which if you don't know, should check out:



Both these pieces could loosely be described as drones - but they're very detailed, and aren't drones, more continuous music. The mood is melancholy. Both sooooo good.

 

Café Oto
30th July 2018
Ute Kanngiesser (cello), Steve Noble (drums) & John Tilbury (piano)

Only a single set of about an hour but a quite beautiful piece of improvised music rom three great musicians. Noble is a regular around the London scene but I haven't caught John Tilbury for a while and the cellist is new to me.

 

Bang On A Can - Classics.

 

Discovered this thread recently and have been plowing through all 82 pages... Discovered some great things. Enjoying this album a lot recently:

Otomo Yoshihide's New Jazz Ensemble Dreams (Tzadik, 2002)

Olympic Mess: Helm

Swirling, ambient, industrial noise and drones. This is the sound of a factories on the surface of Mars.

 

Bardo Pond - Game Five And A Half
2009, Three Lobed Recordings
