This acclaimed Lisbon-based experimental musician-producer-academic continues to create lush ambient soundscapes using electric guitar and effects (as well as some "silence" recorded from a space shuttle mission). Very beautiful. Recommended.

The first of the two audio tracks on this li'l single (meant for sale on Tortoise' recent tour, so we don't have many) is pretty interesting and engaging, smatterings of lightly-wielded Autechre-style drum'n'bass whispering amongst arpeggiated guitar and

There's very little that we can discern about who Triangles are. The purposefully crappy drawing on the cover (by Leif Elgrenn and Kevin Drumm!) could be portraits of God Albino from the Hawd Gankstuh Rappuhs and Phil Manley from Trans Am... but I wouldn't put

New cd from Canadian-in-the-Netherlands dub meister Ryan Moore whom you may have heard performing with the Legendary Pink Dots, Dead Voices on Air or Tear Garden. Ryan - performing all instruments himself - excels in creating modern dub in the mid-seventies

This is one of the essentials in the series, a triple disc box set sampler which includes tracks from the other four BYG/Actuel reissues listed here (Sun Ra, Shepp, Don Cherry, and the Art Ensemble) as well as rare material by Sonny

Collection of Afro-Cuban jazz from the genre's heyday, with tracks from as early as 1958 and on up to 1974. This is an assortment of smooth, clean, pristine and very controlled tunes that, fair or no, always makes me think of Cal Tjader -- so it should come as no surprise that he's included on this compilation. Both well known and not-so-well-known orchestras and cuts are compiled here (a

French import double cd of Indian music new and old. Disc one ("Traditional") features fifteen tracks from a bunch of doubtless well-known trad Indian artists. Of course Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan -- hey he's not Indian -- and Ravi Shankar are the only ones WE recognize. The selections are pretty cool with lots of wild vocal, tabla and sitar action. There's even some street sounds

As you've already figured out, this is the sequel to the Spirit of India 2cd comp reviewed above. Again we're presented with a disc of traditional material, and a second disc of "New Vibes" -- electronica takes on the sounds of India. Disc one's got Shankar and Khan again, and Trilok Gurtu and Shelia Chandra as well, plus also a bunch of other unknown-to-us artists, and is again pretty

From the obi strip: "New Tzadik Oracles series is proud to begin with the unique visions of singer/songwriter Haena Kim. Featuring hypnotic, trippy vocals, nasty electric bass and two driving Korean percussionists, this is a band that opens up an exciting new world of sound.
