B Mountain Fragrance 20:42
Originally a 1983 cassette release, these two tracks recently resurfaced as part of
a tape boxset on Sun Araw’s Sun Ark label, and appear here on vinyl for the first
time. McClellan employs Moog synths and a rigorous compositional process in these
immersive long-form pieces, designed for therapy and meditation. This isn’t massage
parlour, crystals and incense guff, but New Age at its most potent and time-bending,
to rank alongside the works of Steve Roach, Laraaji and Pauline Anna Strom.

States Of America than to the flower power movement. The LP was originally issued in
1967.

ZORN 053 HELLVETE MUZIEK VOOR HARMONIUM LP 01.2021
A Voor Harmonium III 18:14
B Voor Harmonium IV 18:42
In his essay The Meaning of My Avant-Garde Hillbilly and Blues Music, Henry Flynt
talks about how his music should be analysed as an intellectual tribute to the music
of the autochtone, setting aside plain folk references, but adopting academic insights
to mold the music one makes as a folk creature. Much of Flynts discourse applies to
the music of Glen Steenkistes Hellvete. Over the past twenty years he has been
thoroughly investigating both the ethnic musical language of various regions as well
as the contemporary pioneers that preceded him as a drone musician, internalizing
concepts such as e.g. deep listening or just intonation. Casting off any redundant
ideas or sounds, and stripping down the focus to develop singular concepts, his
working method lead to pieces such as Droomharmonium, in which he shapes the endless
variations on a theme, emphasizing detail and nuance rather than multitude.
The Indian harmonium here serves as the main device to worship ancient ghosts and
masters, and to preserve a continuum in a tradition that touches both folk and
avant-garde culture. The materialisations are sustained tone compositions which
become a means of appreciation of the people and cultures that paved the way for
forms of mutual escapism. This might well be the core of what Hellvetes music is
about. As much as it is a form of self-entertainment - like folk music in the old
days - it also invites the listener to a shared experience of sonic reverie, it is
a casual gift to the community. Edition of 250 Artwork by Dieter Durinck.

Outstanding free jazz session recorded in 1973 in Paris by Chicago outfit BAG.
It was Lester Bowie, trumpeter with the Art Ensemble of Chicago, who suggested that
the Black Artists Group (BAG) should head for Paris. In 1972 several members of BAG
took his advice and flew to France for an extended stay. The following year a concert
featuring saxophonist Oliver Lake, trumpeters Baikida Carroll and Floyd LeFlore,
drummer Charles Bobo Shaw and trombonist Joseph Bowie (Lester's younger brother) was
recorded and subsequently issued as 'In Paris, Aries 1973', a strictly lim.ed. LP on
the group's own label.

ZORN 059 CRAZY DOBERMAN : TWO TALES OF LOST WITNESS MARKS LP 01.2021
A Tale One In Five Parts 18:56
B Tale Two In Four Parts 18:56
Tim Gick's already-warped patchwork editing of the entire Crazy Doberman output thus
far turns increasingly glitched out across the splattered quiltwork of a nine track
LP on Aguirre. Any coherent sense of time departs early on the A-side; kicked off
with the familiar sound of the Dobes' synth throb and Love-cry woodwinds on top of
completely fried electric guitar squiggling, all suspended in spiritual foam; then
battered to bits on the greasy flat top of the record's b-side. Ringing modular
synth sirens evoke alarmingly huge Southern watersnakes swimming on top of Oconee
river. Total trip zone across two sides: brownouts in the sequence of events, dubby
fadeouts, and bright jump cuts in space. Teases of cartoon barrlehouse tickling on
the keys of a farmhouse piano and tape melt psychedelia. The recording session in
Athens, Georgia was a total "CHUGFEST" recalls Frank Hurricane, the Appalachian
juggalo folkie king, who joined the session with the Lafayette, Indiana crew.
The presence of Hurricane's own "Life is Spiritual" mirth bulworks the record with
a muddy, barefoot hippy hopefullness, steadying the log flume through the notcturnal
psychic murk toward the holy morning dew. (J. Russ) Notes Edition of 500 Artwork by
John Olson.

Famed free jazz concert registration of an early New Direction for the Art
performance. Recorded in 1971. Old-style Gatefold LP, with rare photographs &
extensive liner notes by Alan Cummings. The performance by Takayanagi Masayuki
New Direction for the Art at the Genyasai festival on August 14, 1971 was an
intense, bruising collision between the radical, anti-establishment politics of
the period in Japan and the febrile avant-garde music that had begun to emerge
a few years before. The ferocious performance that you can hear here was received
with outright hostility by the audience, who responded first with catcalls and
later with showers of debris that were hurled at the performers. Takayanagi
though described the groups performance to jazz magazine Swing Journal as a
success, "an authentic and realistic depiction of the situation".

Fully immersive electronic music by US composer Maggi Payne, inspired by the arctic
winds. Maggi Payne's sound worlds invite the listeners to enter the sound and be
carried with it, experiencing it from the inside out in intimate detail. The sounds
are almost tactile and visible. The music is based on location recordings, with each
sound carefully selected for its potential-its slow unfolding revealing delicate
intricacies-and its inherent spatialization architecting and sculpting the aural
space where multiple perspectives and trajectories coexist. With good speakers, some
space in your schedule, and a mind-body continuum willing to resonate with Paynes
electroacoustic journey, but then it will take you to places that other music cant
reach. From the sounds of dry ice, space transmissions, BART trains, and poor plumbing
she immerses the listener in a world strangely unfamiliar. Maggi Payne is a composer,
video artist, recording engineer, photographer, and flutist and is Co-Director of the
Center for Contemporary Music and a faculty member at Mills College, in the San
Francisco Bay Area.

Originally composed by Maggi Payne between 1984-1987 for the performance group
Technological Feets. Formed by video artist Ed Tennenbaum in the San Francisco Bay
Area in 1981, the group combines dance, live video processing and music. Ahh-Ahh was
first released in 2012 on Root Strata. Composed on an Apple II computer & various
early sampling devices, Payne's compositions are a vibrant response to the call from
the moving body. Populated with buoyant pulses, graceful analogue swells, dense
fog-like drones and cascading rhythms that shift in space, AHH-AHH is a vital document
of not only these early collaborations, but of computer based music as well. She
studied with many greats in the field, including Gordon Mumma, Robert Ashley & David
Berhman.

The Begotten is the brainchild of Juergen De Blonde (Koehn/de portables) and Brecht
Ameel (Razen), who initially performed a number of shows and released a CS under the
moniker 'Kohier' - gleefully referencing the absurdity of Belgian tax systems and
institutions. On their debut LP "Temidden Laaghangende Wolken" they are joined by
percussionist and improv-veteran Dirk Wachtelaer (Pablo's Eye/Vanishing Pictures),
who locked with De Blonde and Ameel's post-reality continuum during a recording
session at Les Ateliers Claus in Brussels. In this new trio format, The Begotten
weaves a stripped-down set of after-hours, trancey observations on keys, baritone
guitar and drums. Neon-lit bars are named Le Kheops or 60 Moons, streets are soaked
in sheets of rain, people are staring at tax sheets and comets pass by unnoticed.
Dub with tears; "Temidden Laaghangende Wolken" is the perfect backdrop of a strongly
medicated game of Manillen during a 'Derrick' rerun. Edition of 250 Painting by
William Turner.

With Natural Information Abrams entered a new phase of his musical life, extending
an invitation to the trance, where time intersects with timelessness. He carried
with him a wealth of playing and listening experience. As a bass player he had worked
with a host of notable musicians including guitarist Jeff Parker and percussionist
Hamid Drake, and had been a member of back porch minimalism outfit Town And Country
and the improvising trio Sticks And Stones. The guimbri is a shaping presence on
this remarkable recording, but Abrams also plays bass, bells, kora, sampler and
synthesizer. Sympathetic friends including guitarist Emmett Kelly, vibraphonist Jason
Adasiewicz and drummers Frank Rosaly and Nori Tanaka join him for the project.
They set out not to contrive some neat hybrid but to enable coordinated energies
and enriching influences to pulse and flow through living, breathing music.
Ten years further into a century seemingly dedicated, as Toffler foresaw, to the
survival of the fastest, the deep involving groove of Natural Information seems
still more relevant, more illuminating, more vital. Joshua Abrams first Natural
Information album from 2010, superb avant-jazz, newly remastered at Dubplates

the approach of the La Novia collective from which it originates, a hub for like
minded musicians reinventing regional folk repertoires, marrying traditional French
song with minimalism via the use of drone. Jericho is just one of many available
permutations of La Novia members, with the line-up including Yann Gourdon, Clment
Gauthier, Jacques Puech and Antoine Cognet - you could say its La Novias flagship,
or super-group. There are no dramatic stylistic shifts here, this is a story of
gradual evolution within parameters that Jericho, and La Novia, have set for
themselves. That also applies to their interpretation of individual songs, which
are largely traditional.

03. NOT SO LONG DON 1:59
Ferocious JP / US free jazz bomb. A rare meeting between the NYC free jazz scene
and the Japanese free music scene. Old-style Gatefold LP, with rare photographs
& liner notes by Alan Cummings. Following hot on the heels of the first, mid-sixties
generation of Japanese free jazz players like Kaoru Abe, Masayuki Takayanagi, Yosuke
Yamashita, Motoharu Yoshizawa, etc., an exciting second wave of younger players began
to emerge in the seventies. Two of its leading members were the saxophonist Kazutoki
Umezu and multi-instrumentalist Yoriyuki Harada. Both were post-war babies and
immigrants to the city, Umezu from Sendai in the north and Harada from Shimane
in the west. They first met as students in the clarinet department at the Kunitachi
College of Music, a well-known conservatory in western Tokyo. Harada was already
securing sideman gigs on bass with professional jazz groups and was active in
student politics, making good use of his connections to set up jazz concerts on
campus. It was around this time that the two began to play together in an improvised
duo, with Umezu on clarinet and bass clarinet and Harada on piano. They also
experimented with graphic scores and prepared piano.

Double album in gatefold sleeve with artwork by Zully Adler. In co-production with
House Rules & released in an edition of 500. This sprawling collection by Belgian
loner blues savant Bram Devens aka Ignatz encapsulates the mystery, murk, and
melancholy of his uncanny craft at its most windswept and wayward. Originally
issued via Goaty Tapes in September of 2015, this long-anticipated vinyl edition
expands the saga with an additional 17 minutes of archival material. Devens palette
remains constant throughout: feathery fingerpicking, modal loops, and intuitive
six-string navigations interspersed with candlelit passages of mournful voice,
alternately whispered, mumbled, moaned. His is an aesthetic of embers and resin,
cracked masks and distant lights, of whats left behind and what lingers on. I Live
In A Utopia was recorded following a relocation from his longtime base of Brussels
to Landen, with a second child due soon: "I remember the weather being nice and
having just bought a hammock." The change of scenery seeded a promise of slower
days and lighter times - no utopia perhaps, but a sense of faint hope glowing on
the horizon. The songs slide between loose acoustic spirituals and smoky basement
ragas, late afternoon haze and midnight moons, a seesawing restlessness reflected
in the titles ("I Have Found True Love," "Time Does Not Bring Relief," "We Used
To Smoke Inside"). The fidelity is grainy but vivid, refracted by tape warp and
Flemish dust.
