Moderately Sized List
More stuffs of interest. |
| 1 |  | Mathias Grassow
Transpersonal
Darkly soothing tones. |
| 2 |  | Morton Feldman
Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello
Will keep repping this because it is one of his best pieces. |
| 3 | | Maurizio
MCD
More Basic Channel techno domination. |
| 4 |  | Void
Condensed Flesh |
| 5 |  | Michael Pisaro and Toshiya Tsunoda
Crosshatches
Reception seems to be mixed amongst the miniature avant-garde circle of Sputnik,
but I really enjoyed this. It would have placed high-ish on my 2012 list. |
| 6 |  | Jorge Ben
Samba Esquema Novo
Listened to a bunch of MPB/Bossa/general Brazilian albums in the last week or so.
Great stuff. |

| 17 | | Ajilvsga
The Origin of the Chaul
Great noisy drone/ambient. |
| 18 |  | Charles Gayle
Repent
His release from last year, Streets, gained a few ratings on here, but his big couple of
releases from the early '90s blow it out of the water. This is absolutely insane stuff.
Long, spirited jams in a similar vain to late Coltrane (Live in Japan, etc). |
| 19 |  | William Parker
O'Neal's Porch
Another free jazz legend that I have had little luck pushing on Sputnik. This album is
quite accessible by free/avant jazz standards, particularly for it's strong rhythmic
base, provided by of course Parker's fantastic bass playing (best since Mingus) and
the rock solid Hamid Drake. The first few tracks are especially good. |
