The Rita - snorkel/skate - LP. i like everything with this record, concept, covers, sound, all lovely. On the skate side more of the soundsource can be percieved and it is also the more varied side, but both are head-on noise that´s balsam for the soul...
Gomeisa - ego death - tape. 2 static walls of noise in 1 hour, minimal changes, rumpling and sparkling, to be honest i can´t explain what i like so much about this, just find it quite brilliant!
Envenomist - the reservoir - tape. Slow moving synth á la early Tangerine dream or stuff on Drone rec. label, 4 distict pieces with a bit more edge on the b-side. Don´t listen much to music like this anymore, it tends to get kind of boring after a while, but this is pretty good. Would work well as soundtrack to sci-fi/post apocalypse movie.
Peter Kowald - bass solo - LP. 40 minutes of only acoustic bass may sound like limited idea, but as the free jazz legend he is Kowald pulls this off in a fantastic way. Only couple of minutes of traditional playing rest is like looming and droning soundscape with lots of changes, really dark and mysterious, at the end he does a bit of his usual chanting. I believe a few of you here could really appreciate this extraordinary record!

Never heard of Kowald before, found two 10 min solos on spotify... mesmerizing. Thank you very much for that recommendation...!

ERIC LUNDE "drawing circles in the asphalt with the back of your head" LP a.k.a. limited edition vinyl release of selections of "ootheka" CDr. Cleaner and more electronics material. I must say, that LP format is very good for this - due shorter length and the atmosphere it offers. Some weaker tracks have been removed and even if not perhaps his best works, it offers different side than the ultra decayed & recycled and the field recordings. 100 copies edition on Trait Media.

Kowald played with all the classic free jazz figures from the 60s onwards, both in Europe and America, starting with Peter Brötzmann. But sadly he passed away a couple of years ago. I´d never thought sounds like this could be made from a simple bass, was quite overwhelmed when i first heard it some months ago. Another brilliant bass-record, but with drums as well, is the Henry Grimes/Rashied Ali - Spirits aloft cd, more of a jazz feel, but there´s some really weird sounds on that one...! I rather like solo-instrument records, must be quite a challenge for the artist to do. One of my favorite drummers Paal Nilssen-Love have made a solo drum cd and also one with drums/electronics, i must check them out!

IRM - Order4 has been on rotation a fair bit the past few days. First experience with this band and definitely going to seek out more.

I'd recommend everything. Especially the 10" and 12" on Segerhuva and the Nihil comp on CMI.

$30 for quality music is not soo bad. With shipping for 2 LPs it may be expensive though. Unless your converting from the Euro. All the bands play well except I think the Institut side is pretty weak. But the Nod tracks are really excellent. Each bands plays about 20-25 min worth of material so you're getting a fair bit of music. And I don't want to spoil the surprise of Sharon's Last Party but it's again, even better than most of their other material.

Well, there's not too much material to choose from, is there? There's only the 7" on Segerhuva and the later tape, which is a whole different affair. The main difference probably being that Martin Bladh was part of the Nihil recordings (+ maybe also on the 7", I don't remember now?) - the music shifted in the same way Adolphi's musical interests changed considerably during this period.

It is worth 30 dollars but you should be able to find it much cheaper than that. I'm sure CMI still has copies but of course you take your chances ordering from him. There must be several brand new copies sitting in distros out there who can't wait to get rid of them. Keep looking. Yes, the Institut side is probably the weakest I've heard from him/them. For Institut I recommend getting the Unto the Last Man 2 x 7" and work your way forwards. The releases before that are shit.  I got this in the post this morning. A Cage CD compiling material from the period when he was still fucked up and doing tons of drugs. Before he matured and became a bit boring.

well, I mean, it's $30 including shipping (roughly $18 before). I did say "ppd" in my original post. thanks for the tips, though. i think i'll aim for it. only reason shipping is so much is because the seller is in Canada, and we have ridiculous postal rates. sucks there's nothing else I want from the guy to combine on shipping.
