Part 1

Part 2

Greg Kelley - Is Uncomfortable

Is Uncomfortable

I think that Greg Kelley and nmperign are kinda sorta that link between labels like Erstwhile and Hanson. Sorta a beautiful and harsh collision between those two worlds that seem somewhat diametrically oppossed.

But Kelley proved me wrong. oh wellz.

Albert Ayler - Music is the Healing Force of the Universe

Music is the Healing Force of the Universe

I love this record mostly for Masonic Inborn which is totally insane and my fav Ayler cut.

Evan Parker & John Wiese - C-Section (Second Layer Records 2009)

C-Section Part 1

C-Section Part 2

First post over here. Might as well plug my other blog (dick move). Static Collaborative. I like my things a little noisier. So here's some of what I have to offer.

Real-time improvisations to be played at maximum volume. Recorded May 2008. Mastered by Tommi Keranen.

Evan Parker: tenor/soprano saxophone
John Wiese: electronics, tape, MSP

In John's own words: "We recorded it together in a studio in London last year when I was over there. It differs from a lot of collaborations that I've done in that I went with Evan's vibe of keeping the integrity of the live take (which I don't necessarily normally do -- I love to edit). The session was two long takes, with two shorter ones of different strategies... I think if you crank it, it sounds pretty unique."

Andy Moor, John Butcher, Thomas Lehn - Thermal (2003)

Thermal

Sax,Guitar,Synthesizer. Maybe between SME and Borbetomagus aesthetic. Wonderfull Release.

David Murray - Sur-Real Saxophone (Horo 1978)

Sur-Real Saxophone

Solo LP from this killer tenor man on the phenomenally epic Horo label. Moves between liquid lines and sputtering reed demolition in the blink of an eye.

Black Artists Group - In Paris, Aries 1973

In Paris, Aries 1973

The sole LP of this group, nigh impossible to track down now. Sort of in the vein of AACM stuff from the time, especially Art Ensemble of Chicago. Oliver Lake, Charles "Bobo" Shaw and Joseph Bowie alongside lesser-knowns Baikida E.J. Carroll and Floyd Le Flore. Fumblingly free stuff with plenty of clatter.
