This is also the last sale we'll run before we move to our new location this Friday, so you not only ease the load that we have to carry, but it will also help us to defray the costs of moving. So take a good look at this list, which includes major artists, important labels, and historic music. As each item is sold they will disappear from the store, never to return again.

   Jazz & Improvisation

Foster, Michael / Ben Bennett: In It [CASSETTE]
(Astral Spirits)


The second release for the duo of Ben Bennett on drums, percussions and membranophones, and Michael Foster on tenor, soprano, sopranino saxophones and aerophone, in uniquely voiced improvisations that develop both carefully and, at times, erratically, but always with an ear to dialog that captivates and confuses the listener.

Mascolo, Carlo: My Tubes
(Creative Sources)


A unique take on this large brass instrument from Italian trombonist and Free Flow Festival director Carlo Mascolo, using preparations, focusing on components of the instrument, and using extreme techniques to create a startlingly diverse set of sounds, vocalisations, microtonal output and simply bizarre utterances as Mascolo brings new language to horn.

Rummel, Simon Ensemble: IM MEER
(Umlaut Records)


German composer and improviser Simon Rummel presents the 2nd release from his 11-piece Simon Rummel Ensemble, blending his interest in acoustic phenomena and improvisational harmonics in an extended work that shifts from beautiful tonal work to disruptive cacophony and back to melodic music, blending jazz and 20th century approaches; a great achievement.

W-2 (Sam Weinberg / Chris Welcome): Fanatics [CASSETTE]
(Astral Spirits)


The Brooklyn duo of saxophonist Sam Weinberg (Captain Phillips) and synth player Chris Welcome (Chris Pitsiokos, Mike Pride) in an album of abrasive, rhythmically abraded and contorted electro-acoustic improvisation, each player embedding themselves into each other's sound, at time making their instruments indistinguishable from one another.

   Experimental/Electronic

HMS (Joe Houpert / Nathan McLaughlin / Erich Steiger): Tetrad [CASSETTE]
(Astral Spirits)


Blurring the lines between experimental music, improv, and composition, the trio of Joe Houpert, Nathan McLaughlin, and Erich Steiger use the studio to rework their improvisations, accenting aspects of the acoustic and electronic elements and morphing them in unexpected ways; "think Henry Flynt meets Cluster meets Revolutionary Ensemble".

Monteiro, Alfredo Costa / Miguel A. Garcia: Aq'Ab'Al
(Mikroton Recordings)


Audio experimenters Alfredo Costa Monteiro and Miguel A. Garcia join forces in an album titled after "Aq'ab'al", the Mayan Astrology Sign about polar opposites-- dawn and dusk, hot and cold, black and white--which represents renewal and change, through a series of opposing audio events, forceful sounds of texture, feedback, and intervention.

Smiley, Andrew : Dispersal [CASSETTE]
(Astral Spirits)


An uncommon solo guitar album from Andrew Smiley, a member of Little Women and the Chris Pitsiokos Quartet, creating textures on the guitar by applying unconventional techniques with his pick and fingers instead of using effects or guitar preparations, and accompanying himself on voice in Haino-esque ways, creating an album of sharp contrast and color.
