I downloaded it semi-randomly from bandcamp (it's on the Otoroku label of course) and I'm loving it. It's basically a Japanese bluesman "singing" in a more experimental setting. It reminded me of Keiji Haino's Black Blues album (the soft one). Just to let folks know that OtoRoku downloads are also available directly from Cafe Oto and generally at lower cost as you're not paying Bandcamp 15%. https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/shop/kan-mikami-john-edwards-alex-nielson-live-cafe-oto/ Quote
T.D. Posted February 5 Posted February 5 (edited) "New" archival release: Marty Ehrlich and Julius Hemphill, Circle the Heart on Relative Pitch https://relativepitchrecords.bandcamp.com/album/circle-the-heart While on the bandcamp site, I saw that Ahmed's Giant Beauty 5-CD box set is getting a "third edition" repressing, ETA March 6. Edited February 5 by T.D. Quote
colinmce Posted February 5 Author Posted February 5 Received the Hemphill disc the other day, it’s excellent. Quote
Lazaro Vega Posted April 22 Posted April 22 Has this been discussed. Sonically, wow: https://www.newworldrecords.org/products/julius-hemphill-dogon-ad Julius Hemphill's Dogon A. D. in a new remaster from New World. Quote
Rabshakeh Posted July 17 Posted July 17 Any really nice records anyone has unearthed recently? This thread has become fairly quiet recently. Quote
Niko Posted July 17 Posted July 17 I like Lucid by Micah Thomas, it's that group of people around Immanuel Wilkins, but by their standards it's relatively free... Quote
NIS Posted July 17 Posted July 17 Recent purchases that I've enjoyed: Alexander Hawkins - No Nation But Imagination Patricia Brennan & Sylvie Courvoisier - Talamanti Aymeric Avice, Luke Stewart, Chad Taylor - Deep In The Earth High In The Sky Quote
Д.Д. Posted July 21 Posted July 21 I've been perusing the Weekertoft catalog on bandcamp: https://weekertoft.bandcamp.com/music . These Evan Parker sides are excellent (especially the soprano one). Quote
Rabshakeh Posted July 21 Posted July 21 I wasn't aware of this label at all. That's for the recommendation Quote
mjazzg Posted July 21 Posted July 21 (edited) Good label. Smyth, whose label it is, played the Vortex last month. Sadly I wasn't able to get to it Edited July 21 by mjazzg Quote

jlhoots Posted July 23 Posted July 23 I continue to buy most of the Dave Rempis CDs on Aerophonic. Quote
Rabshakeh Posted July 23 Posted July 23 What is "Mopomoso"? The link doesn't seem to explain. (Maybe I missed it.) Quote

mjazzg Posted July 24 Posted July 24 Mopomoso still happens on a monthly basis at the Vortex. It was run by John Russell before his death but I don't know who took up the baton. https://www.vortexjazz.co.uk/series/mopomoso/ Quote
Rabshakeh Posted July 24 Posted July 24 Maybe I've been to some of them. Somehow I'd missed it all. Quote
Lazaro Vega Posted July 27 Posted July 27 Just woke up to The Trio of Bloom's performance of "Unreal Light" (Craig Taborn) is an attenuated "Solar." Quote

Trade Union club with cheap beer! Quote
