Lucy Railton / Max Eilbacher — Forma / Metabolist Meter (Foster, Cottin, Caetani and a Fly) (Portraits GRM)

Portraits GRM is a new manifestation of the partnership between Editions Mego, a Viennese record label, and the Groupe de Recherches Musicales (aka INA-GRM), a French institution that has been facilitating the continued development and presentation of musiques concrètes and subsequent non-popular electronic musical approaches since the 1950s. That alliance has already resulted in Recollection GRM, another series of releases that presents LPs of both historically significant and under-appreciated music from the INA-GRM archive. The mission of this new project is the presentation of new work, once more on LP. Its first release, Jim O’Rourke’s Shutting Down Here, spanned two sides of a vinyl record. The second is this split LP, which features side-long pieces by Berlin-based Englishwoman Lucy Railton and Baltimore resident Max Eilbacher, and which may be more representative of what one might expect from the label in the future. Each contribution was first presented to the listening public in Paris during the warm-weather months of 2019, and has been remixed from multi-speaker mixes down to stereo.

Forma by Lucy Railton

The Latin root of Forma is form, and the name of Railton’s piece might be an acknowledgement of a central aesthetic challenge: how does a cellist function creatively in the 21st century? As a performer and side-person, the answer is pretty straightforward; you work with the people who want to work with you. In that capacity, she’s played with Welsh harpist and improviser Rhodri Davies, experimental techno composer Beatrice Dillon and the Trondheim Jazz Orchestra. But as a musical originator, Railton has toggled between cello, which she plays in classically informed fashion, and electronics.

Forma is a piece for multi-channel tape and live cello. The recorded material was aggregated over a couple years, and it includes the sounds of an organ in Iceland, the GRM’s own Serge synthesizer, and Railton’s home-based electronics. The keyboard sounds that introduce the piece could have been lifted from the soundtrack to some 1970s-vintage horror movie, but they quickly yield ground to high, shimmering pitches and distorted, machine-like squelches. Certain sounds grind to a stop and then re-accelerate, as though a finger had been placed upon the tape reel. This music would originally have been heard through the Acousmonium, the GRM’s 80-speaker sound system, but the stereo remix is both transparent and balanced. As the mix compounds, Railton’s cello flickers in and out of hearing. It sounds distorted at first, but the more present it becomes, the less processed it sounds. Even coming out of two speakers, it’s an immersive listening experience; what a shame that it’ll take a pandemic-vanquishing vaccine and a ticket to Paris to hear it in its original form. But the negotiation between the cello and the rest of the piece also invites one to think of Forma as more than a sensual experience. Is Railton making a statement about what it takes to get people to pay attention to a cello these days? If so, her dilemma neatly parallels the one that Portraits GRM is meant to tackle.

Metabolist Meter (Foster, Cottin, Caetani and a Fly) by Max Eilbacher

Metabolist Meter (Foster, Cottin, Caetani and a Fly) opens with bursts of static that smack-smack-smack the listener’s ear like the loose end of a spinning reel of tape. Having cued the listener to listen for rhythms, Eilbacher starts tossing them out, one after another, creating a thicket of ticks, tocks, and marimba-like resonations. These are blown aside by a series of hammering, hard to source beat patterns, which are periodically scrunched up with more static noise or the taffy-pulled tones of Ka Baird’s flute. The polyrythmic play is interrupted temporarily by a sequence out of phase French-language recitations and the captured buzz of a fly. It’s harder to draw implied meaning out of Eilbacher’s piece than Railton’s, but if you’re in the mood for a freak-out that only reveals the fine calibrations of its creation in retrospect, here you go. And in that respect, Eilbacher’s work fits right into the GRM tradition.

Sonata Dwarf Mix Cosmos is an old companion of his, and with the Chijimi house band + 1, they bring it all back home again, this time to the space in Bonny's place. “As other practitioners are leaving the room in favor of novel forms of recording and distro and consumption, we are left with a virtual PALACE, fantastical and real structures and practices. Like we are allowed into the museum at night. We can make a great essentially live record with great songs and great players because nobody else is?

On this expressive and singular new album, Chuck Johnson gives his steel pedal guitar the starring role, and creates a kind of country post-rock. It feels like a universe unto itself. MICHEL BANABILA double lp Trespassing / Marilli $29.99Trespassing is a double LP compilation focussing on Dutch electronic artist Michel Banabila's incursions into otherworldly and imagined realms. LP1 is a compilation of works spanning over 20 years that acts as a bridge between his earliest work and his contemporary practice. LP2 is a reissue of his early masterpiece Marilli, a highly sought-after album that acts as both an LSD inspired DIY tribute to Byrne and Eno's Ghosts and a youthful exploration of Banabila's personal background and his experience as a squatter in Amsterdam in the early 80s. SERGE BULOT lp Les Legendes De Broceliande $27.99Serge Bulot's multi-tracked masterpiece Les Légendes de Brocélainde (1981), is composed equally with synthesizers, organic instruments and percussion, all played by Bulot himself.

GODFLESH lp Post Self $21.99finally brought in the new godflesh lp. some of the vocals are too heavy and growly for me, but i really liked all the music. not sure why the cookie monster had to show up, but it's not overwhelming for the most part. 8.1 on pitchfork. Three decades, six albums, and one 13-year hiatus later, Godflesh remain revered—and what’s more, they keep getting better. Post Self, the duo’s eighth LP and third release since reconvening in 2014, is easily the group’s best effort in over 20 years, not to mention 2017’s best industrial-metal album. Whereas the preceding A World Lit Only By Fire functioned primarily as a reintroduction to Godflesh’s primordial rage, Post Self represents a sinister amalgam of its creators’ greater body of work, especially Broadrick’s ambient project Jesu. Mills, Jeff: And Then There Was Light CD $15.99Poignant, aggressive, but serene sound track created by Jeff Mills for And Then There Was Light, a Japanese film directed by Tatsushi Omori based on the novel Hikari by Shion Miura. The music is an additional character in the scenes, showing the determination of the people and a great sense of loss, agony, and love. A synopsis of the film: On Mihama, an island off the coast of Tokyo, a middle school student, Nobuyuki, will do anything for his beautiful girlfriend and classmate, Mika. One night, he catches her in the arms of another man. Thinking quickly, Mika responds by pretending that she is being molested and calls for Nobuyuki's help. Nobuyuki naturally obliges and ends up killing the man. But someone witnessed the incident: a young neighbor named Tasuku, who looks up to Nobuyuki. That night, a devastating tsunami hits the island, wiping out most of its residents. All is quiet. Fast forward 25 years later, and Mika has become an actress leading a glamorous life. Nobuyuki, meanwhile, is married to another woman and has a five-year-old daughter. The past appears to have been buried for good, until one day the only witness to the crime, Tasuku, reappears with a vendetta on his mind. First, he seduces Nobuyuki's wife and begins an illicit affair with her. He then sends incriminating evidence of the long-lost crime to Mika. Once again, Nobuyuki finds himself needing to protect Mika. High Rise: ll LP $25.99Black Editions present a reissue of High Rise's II, originally released in 1986. High Rise exploded onto Tokyo's underground music scene with the roar and reckless abandon of a motorcycle accelerating headlong into a dead man's curve. Born from the explosive chemistry of bassist/vocalist Asahito Nanjo and frenetic guitarist Munehiro Narita, the band blazed a wild new stream of psychedelic guitar music. Their second album is a defining document of the band and unquestionably one of the greatest albums to emerge from 20th century underground Japan and beyond. With Nanjo's distorted thunder bass and Narita's wildly narrative lead guitar playing, II is a non-stop tour de force of improvised rock music. Combining elements of garage rock, punk, and no wave, the band pushed all levels fully in-the-red and transcended the limits of rock and psychedelia to create a raw, unique expansion of the music. Black Editions present High Rise's II, newly mixed and mastered by Asahito Nanjo in what the band states is the definitive version of their most quintessential recording. This new edition restores the original vinyl version's textured black and silver artwork. Housed in heavy Stoughton tip-on jacket. Pressed onto high quality vinyl by RTI. Mclean, Jackie: Capuchin Swing LP $17.992015 reissue from Blue Note Records' 75th Anniversary Vinyl Initiative series. "One of Jackie McLean's more underrated albums from a plethora of Blue Note releases, 1960's Capuchin Swing finds the bebop alto saxophonist in fine form on a mix of covers and originals. While his future fascination with Ornette Coleman's free-form innovations can be sensed in some of the solos here, the majority of the album is in a classic hard bop vein. Like contemporaries Hank Mobley, Sonny Clark, and Lee Morgan, though, McLean doesn't just churn out pat jam-session fare, but comes up with consistently provocative charts and solos. Eschewing ballads, McLean focuses on mid- to fast-tempo swingers and blues. Standouts include originals like 'Francisco' and 'Condition Blue' and choice renditions of 'Just for Now' and 'Don't Blame Me.' McLean enlists a sparkling lineup of hard bop stars, including trumpeter Blue Mitchell, pianist Walter Bishop, Jr., bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Art Taylor. Mitchell particularly impresses, matching many of McLean's own inspired flights with his supple and progressive playing. Along with other fine Blue Note titles like Jackie's Bag and Bluesnik, Capuchin Swing makes for a great introduction to McLean's extensive catalog." -- Stephen Cook, All Music Basho, Robbie: Live Italy '82 CD $13.99Robbie Basho (1940-86), who died young after a stroke, never got his due in the culture at large, but steel-string guitar enthusiasts have known for decades that he was one of the greats of "American Primitivism". Technically adept and compositionally imaginative, fusing the music of many cultures into a mesmerizing solo style, he has been an inspiration for many; his music has generated a surge of interest in recent years. This 1982 concert was part of a four-show Italian tour. It took place at the 18th-century Palazzo Gaddi that housed the local music high school and was mostly used for classical concerts, in an intimate space co-organizer Mario Calvitti (whose memories of the events surrounding this concert make up the bulk of the liner notes) says Basho called it "one lovely little room where I could play all night." Only previously released incompletely as a download, this show can now be heard in its full glory. This release is in cooperation with the Official Robbie Basho Archives. No. 2 in the RB-Archives-Live series. Produced by Buck Curran; Co-released with Obsolete Recordings. VA: B Music Of Jean Rollin LP $27.99Rising out of the smoky Parisian Mai 68 shrapnel and claiming his stake as the first French vampire movie director, the inimitable father of European horrortica, Jean Rollin (1938-2010) has smudged the painted face of surrealist cinema for over five decades. Dragging his roots from beneath the Letterist/Situationist movements, avant-garde theater, and Belgian fine art groups and entwining them around the minds of sexual revolutionaries, the European comic book cognoscenti and the Parisian free jazz and rock scenes, Rollin stopped at nothing to bring his macabre fantasies of zygotic vampyrism and backwoods blood cults to Gallic cinémathèques and beyond. Celebrating the immortal legacy of the late director, Finders Keepers compile a detailed and comprehensive music cabinet of some of the finest musical moments from his initial directorial decade between 1968-1979, which provided a much needed platform for the freak rock and free jazz that mirrored the distorted erotic visions in his own mind's eye. Imagine Gong-gone-wrong meeting the art ensembles of Châteauroux... Fantasy pop groups mutate and thrive within... Features tracks from Yvon Gerault, Acanthus, Pierre Raph, and François Tusques. Indian Ocean: School Bell 12" $16.99"Chances are if you are reading this, you are probably already familiar with Dinosaur L's 'Go Bang' and danced countless times to Loose Joints' 'It's All Over My Face'. A prolific musician, Arthur Russell produced an abundant amount of recordings over the course of his career. Although a classically trained cellist, he released a number of successful underground dance hits under various monikers and collaborations. As a solo artist however, his inability to complete projects resulted in a limited amount of official releases; World of Echo (1986) being his only full-length solo effort to see release in his lifetime. After releasing a number of Club singles on labels like West End & Sire, Russell went on to form Sleeping Bag Records with Will Socolov as an outlet for a sound not as restrictive as his 'disco' material. The initial concept was that Russell would provide the musical direction while Socolov handled the business side. The label had huge success early on with Class Action's 'Weekend' remixed by Larry Levan, and Russell's seminal 'Go Bang,' credited to Dinosaur L and remixed by Francois Kevorkian. Although Russell and Socolov shared a lot of musical common ground, the difference in vision began to show. Russell's avant-garde sensibilities and perfectionism were not compatible with an industry standard to release singles in quick succession, and his 'work in progress' approach began to be financially draining, ultimately resulting in the dissolution of their partnership around 1983. With Arthur's departure, Sleeping Bag moved away from the experimental and towards a successful hip-hop route with the growing involvement of Kurtis Mantronik and leading to propel the careers of artists like Todd Terry, Just-Ice and EPMD. By the mid-80s, Russell's health began to deteriorate after contracting HIV. Although the business partnership did not work out, Socolov and Russell maintained their friendship. Aware of the time he had left, Russell reached out to Socolov to record what was to become Indian Ocean, his last release on Sleeping Bag and the last great collaboration between Arthur and his old friend Walter Gibbons. Unlike the rest of Russell's Dance collaborations, 'School Bell/Treehouse' is very intimate composition, putting to the forefront all the elements that defined him musically; with his own voice and cello as the anchors to a piece that keeps growing in intensity, melding the tribal rhythms of Mustafa Ahmed's conga with percussions that sound like distorted drum machines. There is a lot of beauty in this piece, with Peter Zummo's melancholic trombone lines and Arthur's keyboard playing. Adequately 'mixed with love' by Walter Gibbons, 'School Bell/Treehouse' really synthesizes the energy and soundscapes of Arthur's dancefloor." Leimer, K: Imposed Order / Imposed Absence (Remastered + Expanded) 2CD $20.99"The first phase of K. Leimer's recorded work began in 1972 with the production of the Grey Cows cassette and culminated in 1983 with the release of Imposed Order. Though work seemingly stopped following the release of I/O, Leimer continued to record and experiment with sound during what proved to be a 15-year interregnum for his Palace of Lights label. That work, never before issued, is included in this expanded remaster. Imposed Absence features ten tracks recorded in the years between Imposed Order and his return to releasing music with The Listening Room. Imposed Absence features the addition of Mellotron and early digital synths, some excursions into lo-fi and, unusual in his catalog, a few improvised tracks. Combined with the VOD double album of his earliest tape recordings and RVNG's A Period Of Review double album, the release of Imposed Order / Imposed Absence brings the entirety of Leimer's early work into view.
