Starting his professional career at the age of 13 as a drummer in his father's big band, Kirchin would go on to go on to a storied career that saw him learn how to experiment and manipulate recorded sound and even be cited as an influential figure in ambient music.”...

"Takehisa Kosugi is an inter-media artist and performer who started his career back in the '60s in Tokyo. With his first band Group Ongaku (free anarchist-conceptual improvisations) he was introduced to the Fluxus avant-garde movement. During the '70s, he was a member of the mystical, psychedelic, droning rock band Taj Mahal Travellers. He co-founded the band in 1969. Since the end of the '70s until now, he has released several solo albums and commissioned works for events and sound installations. His...

The great, lost, never to be reissued (why? ask the band and they won't tell you either) first album by Kraftwerk, available in this high quality pirate version.

"After disbanding Organisation (Tone Float, RCA UK-only release/1970) the duo Ralf Hütter und Florian Schneider adopted the name Kraftwerk (Power Plant). The album was recorded between July and August of 1970 in their new Düsseldorf studio. It was co-produced and engineered by Conrad Plank. When released in late 1970 the lp sleeve was...

"Krokodil was a Swiss band that emerged in the late 60's as a blues-rock band that put progressive touches into their music. They were of German-Swiss extraction with bassist and guitarist Terry Stevens being the only foreigner in the band, coming form England. They were regarded as the Swiss version of the Groundhogs due to their first album.
However, from their 2nd album Swamp they started to introduce a psychedelic sound to their music... A band not to be missed by anyone who likes blues...

"The Ictus Archives Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 both draw on the same period that the veteran saxophonist produced Clangs and Trio Live, both recorded in 1976 during of two weeks that he was touring Italy with Andrea Centazzo, released in 1976 and 1977 respectively, and reissued in 2021's batch. Gathering four sides of material, issued as two individual LPs, here is an offering of incredible insight into that moment's striking collaborations with Centazzo and the bassist Kent Carter, forming in duo and trio...

Charles Davis-baritone sax
John Ore-bass
Roy Haynes-drums

This 1961 recording, his third under his own name, is absolutely one of the great 60s Lacy recordings and is a ‘free-bop’ classic.
This is one of the large number of totally fantastic jazz albums that were released by Candid during their short lived lifetime in 1960/1961 and is the first time this has been reissued from the original masters. Hugely personally recommended!

“New York-born soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy became associated with the avant-garde jazz movement from the mid-1950s, playing on free jazz pianist Cecil Taylor's influential debut LP.
Visiting Europe from the mid-1960s, Lacy later travelled to Italy to form a quartet with Italian trumpeter Enrico Rava (who had earlier played in Argentinian sax player, Gato Barbieri's group), plus South African exiles and former Blue Notes members Johnny Dyani on double bass and Louis Moholo on drums.

"Unnamed is a collection of 1971/1972 Lard Free 'lost' recordings that documents an interesting, primitive period of the band and shows Artman & Co. moving freely in different directions : jazz, noise and the most radical musical improvisation."

Hey, it’s well over 45 years later and this still sounds like a crazy racket! But it’s a crazy racket this time, with half of it performed with crazy racket titans of the 60s.
The album opens with an improvised recording titled "Cambridge 1969", recorded on 2 March 1969 at Cambridge University, before a live audience.
The piece took up all of the vinyl’s side one and consists of Ono's vocalisations and screaming accompanied by electric guitar feedback from Lennon. The SME (saxophonist Trevor...

“Orpheus Variations is a new composition by Alvin Lucier for solo cello and seven wind instruments. It is based on a particular sonority from the first movement of Igor Stravinsky's ballet score, Orpheus; a sonority that has haunted Lucier for decades. Orpheus Variations is one of eight large-scale compositions made expressly for Charles Curtis by Alvin Lucier in the last 15 years. This performance was conducted by Petr Kotik, with Charles Curtis playing solo cello alongside members of the SEM Ensemble."...

“String Noise presents three major works for violin solo and duo composed between 2004 and 2019.

“One of the key original French underground prog bands born out the 1960's. Maajun were the seminal roots of many other bands, not least their second incarnation as Mahjun.”

“Extract from my French Independent & Underground Obscurities article in Audion 56 (2010): Although on the trendy French pop label Vogue, Maajun were amongst the most underground of French underground bands.
