   Experimental/Electronic

Oliveros, Pauline: Early Electronic Works 1959-66 [VINYL 2 LPs]
(Sub Rosa)

Before her Deep Listening work and other noted output as an improviser, composer Pauline Oliveros made a systematic exploration of tape and electronic music from the late 1950s through the 1960s, recording these four fascinating and inventive pieces, which are collected in this strictly limited run of 400 copies on silver vinyl LP.

Tetreault, Martin : Plus de Snipettes!!
(Ambiances Magnetiques)

A fun, odd and eccentric album constructed from extracts of hours of tape reels and audio cassettes by Montreal turntablist Martin Tetrault, a mix of plunderphonic sources, unusual turntable technique, and experimental audio collage drawn from an insanely diverse set of sources, in this sequel to his 1992 "Snipettes!" cassette, here with 31 new fascinating miniatures.

Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O.: Sacred And Inviolable Phase Shift

Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O.'s studio album with 5 extended improvised psychedelic rock pieces from guitarist Kawabata Makoto, bassist Wolf, drummer Satoshima Nani, synth player Higashi Hiroshi, and new guitarist/vocalist Jyonson Tsu also on bouzouki; wonderfully detailed and completely spaced out rock from the Japanese masters of the form.

   Compositional

Satie, Erik (Aleman / Vandromme): Socrate
(Edition Wandelweiser Records)

A beautiful rendering of French composer Eric Satie's 1918 masterwork "Socrate", originally for four sopranos and chamber orchestra, here stripped to its essence as a duo with Olalla Aleman on soprano and Guy Vandromme on piano, maintaining Satie's characterist reserve and refinement in the 3 parts: "portrait of socrates"; "banks of the ilissus"; and "death of socrates".
