Andrea Belfi
(2008) Knots / V0
Knots, the new album from Milanese percussionist Andrea Belfi, is broken into four untitled parts. They are similar in palette, but each has its own discreet gloom and web-work of tactile rhythms. While his last record, 2006's Between Neck & Stomach, boasted diffuse little symphonies brisling with brass shards, lattices of guitar (courtesy of 3/4hadbeeneliminated's Stefano Pilia), accordion whiffs and even splintered voices, Knots wears its white space well. It's far sparser but no less beguiling. Contrary to its title, this is fluid music, as agile in laying out its coordinates as it is scrambling them.

Noggin
Noggin (1994) • official website
Noggin was a freely-improvising noise duo consisting of Michael Griffen (violin) and Eric Ostrowski (guitar).
People Band
"Following on from their only prior published recording, here are over two hours of previously unissued recordings from 1969 and 1970... Very different musics recorded in four very different locations... This was around the time the People Band was ejected from the Anarchists Annual Ball for being too musically anarchic." - Emanem
People Band
"An expanded reissue of the only published recording by one of the pioneering free improvisation groups. The People Band took a much more 'anything goes' approach than their contemporaries, so they covered a lot of ground from chamber-esque music and free jazz to free improvisation and conductions." - Emanem
AMM / Merzbow
Includes Merzbow's ‘Ab Hunter’, "which had to be replaced on the Merzbow v AMM split, due to it being too fierce to cut onto vinyl."
