..::OPIS::..

Laboratorium to jedna z najważniejszych formacji w dziejach polskiego jazzrocka. Grupa powstała w 1970 roku w Krakowie. Od początku działalności Laboratorium było niezwykle ciepło przyjmowane przez słuchaczy, szybko zdobywało popularność i nagrody na ważniejszych festiwalach w Polsce. Cenione zarówno przez fanów rocka, jak i jazzu proponowali niezwykłą, niepowtarzalną brzmieniowo, progresywną muzykę. Mając ugruntowaną pozycję kraju, zaczęli zdobywać popularność w zachodniej Europie, występując na wielu festiwalach u boku największych jazzowych sław. "No. 8” swoją premierę miał w 1984 roku i przyniósł kolejną porcję niebanalnych pomysłów. Wśród nich wymienić należy zastosowanie vocodera, wzbogacenie warstwy rytmicznej o przeróżne instrumenty perkusyjne Jana Pilcha oraz gościnny udział skrzypka Jana Błędowskiego.

Reedycja wzbogacona została o 3 kompozycje bonusowe, wersje koncertowe utworów grupy. Album "No. 8” okazał się dużym sukcesem, płyta ta - obok "Modern Pentathlon” - jest do dziś najpopularniejszym albumem zespołu.

Żywioł, wściekłość i nieokiełznana agresja!


“Urm the Mad” was Protector’s sophomore album, recorded in the summer of 1989, again at the Phönix Studio in Bochum, where the four-piece from Wolfsburg had already recorded their killer full-length debut “Golem”. Still keeping the Golem-line up complete (though with some difficulties), Protector at that time consisted of Michael Hasse on drums, Hansi Müller on guitar, Ede Belichmeier on bass and Martin Missy on vocals, who had been in and out of the band and thus came a bit under stress once back in the game: “I had been out between march and early summer, so I wrote the lyrics to all the songs in a very short period of time.” That should not be the only change concerning the vocal position: “Urm the Mad” was to become the last album before the split in 2003 that features Martin Missy; he should be replaced by Olly Wiebel in December 1989. With this personal change still lying ahead of the band, the completion of “Urm the Mad” was decently celebrated: “I remember that a couple of friends from Wolfsburg came down to the studio in Bochum, and we had a big party after the recordings were all done.”

Protector did not change too much about their style – genre-defining early thrash/death – but one of the most notable things about “Urm the Mad” was the sound, as Martin remembers: “The album has a very special sound. It's hard for me to describe it, though, because I don’t know that much about the technical side of recording.” So what is it about the sound then? “Urm the Mad” is famous for its heavy, noisy, dirty sound, for its raw production that makes the music all the more evil and menacing, with guitars in the front and Martin’s unmistakeable vocals lying on the riffs like poisonous mould. “Urm the Mad” is thrash metal walking the sinister path of death – or, into death metal. Some say that this album is closer to Celtic Frost’s “To Mega Therion” than to standard 80’s thrash metal. Protector’s special blend of thrash and death metal has always set them apart from their compatriots and even inspired German metal tabloid Rock Hard to declare Protector to be “Germany’s hardest band” – and this in 1989, the year both Kreator’s “Extreme Aggression” and Sodom’s “Agent Orange” were released! To a big part this was due to the decision against playing even faster and even more technical than on the previous outputs “Misanthropy” and “Golem” – on “Urm the Mad” Protector still play mainly fast and energetic thrash, but the overall feel of the album is that of creeping, lurking evil – crawling along on frequently slowed down, heavy riffs and Martin Missy’s sick death-like growls which seem to come straight from the charnel house. “Urm the Mad” does not sport that “positive” aggression usually found in 80’s thrash; on the contrary, the album is grim, dark and desperate, but nonetheless brutal and extreme. Again, Protector’s contribution to the then-proliferating Teutonic thrash was mainly recognized within the underground scene, and the band’s expectations for “Urm the Mad” were not really met, as Martin recalls: “Protector had earlier that year mounted their first proper tour (with Wehrmacht) and played in front of thousands of enthusiastic fans in Katowice / Poland. The hopes where quite high that this record could be our big breakthrough; unfortunately it wasn't, but I think it definitely further established our name in the underground scene.” The “official” metal press played its own part in keeping Protector a bit below the radar: “We got pretty much the same response as we got for ‘Golem’: Good, positive feedback from our fans and ‘ok’-reviews from the bigger metal magazines.”

In the end, Martin Missy reveals the story behind the eponymous entity “Urm the Mad”: “I got the idea for the song ‘Urm the Mad’ while we were recording ‘Golem’ one year earlier. We were living in an apartment above the studio, and someone had stored a lot of magazines there. Among them I found a batch of Heavy Metal comics, some of them including a comic about Urm (“Urm le fou”, by Philippe Druillet). I liked the story so much that I decided to write some lyrics about it.”

For whatever reason I don't tend to hear the name "Protector" mentioned all that often when people discuss early extreme metal (no, there's not a "proto-extreme" in this case; you're either in or you're out). However, I do think they are notably extreme enough to make the cut along with, say, other German luminaries such as Kreator, Destruction and Sodom (yes, those three once again). Perhaps it's worth noting that while those limelight-hogging trio largely gave up the extremity to their sound after their early records (with Sodom being the possible exception with their brief flirtation with death thrash on the Tapping the Vein album), Protector got a considerably harder-edge over time. Or, at least from what I've heard, they got heavier between their full-length debut, Golem, and this the ripping Urn the Mad.

What is present on this record is notably less typically thrashy than what came before; a frequent use of slower tempos, even murkier production and truly sick vocals from Martin Missy (who, despite having a name that makes him sound like a bit-part character in a sub-par King Diamond album, is a fucking excellent vocalist). So, I guess what I find interesting about Protector, then, is that instead of following a thrashier path on this record they lumbered towards some odd primordial death-like sound. It's still a thrash record, sure, but it feels notably darker, grimmer and generally lacks that "push people around in the mosh pit" vibe that is associated with late-80s thrash. If pressed, I'd certainly say that this is closer to Celtic Frost's To Mega Therion than whatever your own personal standard of "typical late-80s" thrash metal might be. So, that basically leaves us with a thrash record that will appeal to people who don't necessarily like Exodus or Metallica.

Missy's sepulchural vocals are perhaps the most deathy aspect to this record. I can't honestly say that I've heard a thrash vocalist sound so convincingly extreme as he does here. Just listen to the title-track - he's positively menancing! Urn... THE MAD! See, this is thrash metal for fans of Slowly We Rot. Okay, so maybe you're not impressed by convincing death/thrash in 1989? Considering that this was a year after Malleus Maleficarum and a handful of other death metal full-lengths (although, notably ones that are still very much thrash-flecked in tone), perhaps this is not such an impressive feat. Hell, I should probably note that the band aren't afraid to use blast-beats with the closer being a fifty-second grind-influenced piece. Nonetheless, Urn the Mad has a ripping vitality to it and certainly stands to be more than a mere historical footnote; it's very memorable but I wouldn't necessarily call it an obviously catchy record. The riffs themselves aren't particularly "hooky" and it doesn't have any catchy tracks like 'Space Cake' or 'Golem', and yet the combination of Missy's schizophrenic vocals - which do literally "leap out" at the listener at times - and Hansi Müller's rather austere riffing make for something that strangely atmospheric, if you can ever use such an adjective when describing thrash.

Basically, this is thrash metal that functions so well very as death metal that you'd be forgiven for mistaking it for its younger, even uglier brother. It has all the grey-skyed oppressive heaviness you could ask for and with Martin Missy's absolutely vile vocals it's an even more (un)attractive package. You can pick this up through the compilation Ominous Message of Brutality (a more fitting title you possibly couldn't find) and I strongly recommend doing so.

Trivium to amerykański zespół założony w 1999 roku w Orlando na Florydzie. Wykonywana przez zespół muzyka określana jest jako thrash metal, heavy metal, melodic death metal, groove metal, metalcore oraz metal progresywny. Liderem formacji oraz autorem wszystkich tekstów jest Matthew Kiichi Heafy - Amerykanin pochodzenia japońskiego. Nazwa grupy wywodzi się z języka łacińskiego. Trivium w okresie późnej starożytności oraz średniowiecza było, obok quadrivium, podgrupą siedmiu sztuk wyzwolonych. Obejmowało trzy nauki: gramatykę, retorykę oraz logikę. Członkowie zespołu uznają, że obrazuje to ich zainteresowanie różnymi gatunkami muzycznymi. Trivium nagrało dziesięć albumów studyjnych. Zespół słynie z dużej liczby występów. 12 czerwca 2006 roku brytyjski magazyn „Metal Hammer” na gali Golden God Awards uznał grupę za najlepiej koncertujący zespół w bieżącym roku. Tego samego dnia Matt Heafy otrzymał tytuł „Golden God”, a Travis Smith wygrał w kategorii „najlepszy perkusista”. Wstawka zawiera ósmy album zespołu.

Uwielbiam ten album! Wydany 'dopiero' w 1979 roku, ale brzmiący na dużo wcześniejszy (1973-74), drugi album Hiszpanów zawierał bardzo imponującą i uduchowioną porcję progresywnego rocka opartego na mocnym wokalu, łkających albo też mocno riffujących partiach gitar i oczywiście baterii klawiszy - niemal identycznego w formie, jak propozycje niektórych, włoskich formacji, jak Biglietto per l'Inferno, P.F.M. czy Museo Rosenbach - z domieszką stylistyki Pink Floyd i wczesnych Camel.

Podkreślam, że hiszpańskie, progresywne zespoły były mocno 'opóźnione' (m.in. Lisker, Nu, Leno) i datę 1979 śmiało można potraktować jako umowną. Piszę to, gdyż wówczas w progresywnym świecie powstawały rzeczy raczej straszne, jednak w kraju generała Franco czas płynął inaczej, wolniej. Jak to bywa w przypadku wszystkich płyt tej wytwórni - doskonała jakość dźwięku, masterowana z oryginalnego winylu!

..::OPIS::..

W marcu 1970 roku ukazał się singiel zespołu King Crimson zawierający żartobliwy utwór „Cat Food” oraz na stronie B instrumentalny „Groon”. Singiel ten poprzedzał wydanie drugiego albumu zespołu.

Pół wieku po wydaniu tegoż singla ukazuje się jego wznowienie w formie czteroutworowej EP-ki. Rozpoczyna ją singlowa wersja tytułowego utworu, która nagle urywa się w pozycji 2:45 (na płycie utwór ciągnie się dalej). Można to potraktować jako swoisty żart muzyczny. Charakterystycznym elementem tego utworu są szybkie partie fortepianowe grane przez jazzowego pianistę Keitha Tippeta, który gościnnie udzielał się na płytach „In The Wake of Poseidon”, „Lizard” oraz „Islands”.

Prócz oryginalnej singlowej wersji na EP-ce znalazły się jeszcze dwie wersje tytułowego numeru: koncertowa z ubiegłego roku (zarejestrowana w Toronto 14 września 2019 roku) oraz alternatywny miks zmontowany w ubiegłym roku przez Davida Singletona na podstawie ścieżek z oryginalnego nagrania z 1970 roku. Wersja koncertowa brzmi nieco dziwnie. Choć Jakko Jakszyk próbuje wokalnie naśladować Grega Lake’a z raczej przeciętnym skutkiem, to całości dopełniają ciekawe partie saksofonowe Mela Collinsa (których w oryginale nie było). Całość uzupełnia instrumentalny „Groon” – utwór, na który zabrakło już miejsca na „Poseidonie”, lecz znalazł się on w koncertowym repertuarze zespołu z okresu 1971/72.

Zachowana została oryginalna okładka singla, a EP-kę wydano w dwóch formatach: jako krążek CD (tradycyjny rozmiar 5 cali) oraz jako winyl w nieco nietypowym formacie 10 cali i obrotach 33 i 1/3. Ten zabieg jest trochę marnotrawstwem miejsca (16 minut muzyki przy takiej prędkości obrotowej przed laty spokojnie mieściło się na krążkach 7-calowych). Plusem tego nietypowego formatu jest jednak to, że takie wydawnictwo lepiej prezentuje się na półce.

Na odwrocie okładki winyla, a w środku ecopacka CD wydrukowany został tekst tytułowego utworu. Zachowano też po części numer katalogowy oryginalnego wydawnictwa (singiel z 1970 roku wydanie Islands: WIP 6080, EP-ka CD: KCCD 6080, EP-ka 10”: KCEP 6080).

Podsumowując, jest to prawdziwa gratka dla kolekcjonerów i fanów grupy King Crimson. Gdyby nie pandemia koronawirusa, to mogłaby się ona ukazać na Record Store Day (który pierwotnie był planowany na 18 kwietnia, zaś potem przesunięty na 20 czerwca i rozbity na kilka osobnych wydarzeń). A tak to mamy regularne, choć dość nietypowe, wydawnictwo - takowymi od co najmniej dwóch dekad King Crimson zasypuje nas od czasu do czasu.

Kolaboracja Bardoseneticcube & Shinkiro.
Bardzo mocny album!



This is already the second collaboration album of Bardoseneticcube from Russia and Shinkiro from Japan, this time under their own names. The first disc "Four Noble Truths" was released under the combined title of Bashin on the French label Athanor in 2011 and was dedicated to the basic principles of Buddhist teachings. The meditative and contemplative subject continues here as well, now being focused on the aspects of inner and outer space.

We submerge in the dark thick matter of sound, fluid, transparent and stratiform. Woven from abstract electronics, omnifarious samples and transformed voices, textures are smoothly interchanging, always showing new visions in the black mirror of our viewport. Makes you wonder - does the perceivable exist separately from the percipient? In any case this is dark, nocturnal, cosmic music, not devoid of epicism and dramatism. Worth having in your playlist for the next space travel!




Very beautifully this year begins, with regard to ambient and dark ambient music. And in some cases very surprisingly. I remember that “Four Noble Truths” was a decent album, I gave it a very positive review a couple of years ago, but today I’d be lying claiming that I listen to it very often. The first composition made me think that this time it will be a similar situation, that it will be well produced music that I’ll enjoy during a couple of listens, but after a while I’ll put it back on the shelf and move forward to other musical creations. Ok, I can’t say right now, I’ll need much more time to see if “Inner And Outer Space” will stand the test of time, but right now after several listens I must say that it made quite an impression on me. It’s much more sophisticated than their first work.

The tracks differ from one another. The pieces on “Four Noble Truths” were more or less similar in terms of construction, which is good for building up a monumental feeling, but after a while I realized that I had a problem focusing on the music within the space of the whole album. Maybe I’m getting old, I don’t know. Yet I’ve given about a twenty listens to “Inner And Outer Space” up to this day and so far I didn’t have such an impression after all. The whole consuming space is as overwhelming as absorbing of the listener’s attention with its diversity.

“Fluctuations” though isn’t so enthralling, it’s a cosmic dark ambient which sounds like it’s made by the book, without any creative madness. Not the best opening in the ambient world and if I weren’t be so patient I could have taken a break after the first listening and left further contact with the album for the indefinite “tomorrow”. Yet things started getting better and better later. “Evolution” sucked me in an infinite vortex with swirling cosmic winds, distant bells and low-tuned rumblings, later counterpointed by atmospheric, quasi-choir-like drones. Not very original, but somehow tantalizing with a deep cosmic secret.

With “Inflaction” you cross the last point in timespace known to man. You can’t say what’s behind it, but at the same time can’t wait for the secret to reveal itself. You need to check it for yourself. This track is less intense. Once again a wind-like background and stellar calls makes me feel like I’m surrounded by a flickering darkness with no limits.

If had to choose one track from the album that you all should listen to, it would be “Afterglow”, with a constantly growing tension, weird sounds swirling and whirling, accompanied by this ever absorbing drone and reverbed synth micromelodies. Once again, it’s a huge and powerful piece of music, but this time also sparkling with some vague sadness. A longing for home. Luckily “Dark Ages” has nothing to do with dull medieval dark wave – I feel ashamed that I even thought about that. Not at all, this one is like watching the nebulas’ beauty through a telescope. There’s something like a grotesque alien transmission once or twice during these eleven minutes, but it doesn’t disturb the somehow soothing feeling of the track.

Yes, I think I can say it. This album is far better than “Four Noble Truths”. It’s like the extension of those ideas, taking them to a slightly different direction. Sure, it’s nothing new within the genre, there’s a lot of sounds and passages that I feel are familiar from other albums. Even this “Dark Ages” in some moments reminds me of “Passing Inner Shields” by you-know-who. So it’s not visionary (then again, what is in dark ambient these days), the mystery lies not in the sound itself, but in your imagination being stimulated by the music, the music which is a perfect craftmanship of two musicians who know exactly what they want to achieve.~(santa sangre magazine)


~Bardoseneticcube is a dark ambient/industrial project from St. Petersburg. Now with Bardoseneticcube, you never really know what you’re going to get, so let’s see how these two artists work together. “Fluctuations” opens with the kind of spacey dark ambient that I have come to expect from Zhelezobeton. “Evolution” keeps this feel going with the moving of tectonic plates and warbling synth. Reminds me of older Lustmord and Rapoon. “Inflation” is where we begin to see the synthesis of these acts. Like the previous tracks, it begins peacefully, with slowly shifting synth notes that hold for several measures at a time. But this is all an illusion, as it becomes progressively harsher as the track evolves. This is what you hear right before you cross the event horizon. After another interlude of spacey ambient in “Afterglow,” we move to the conclusion in “Dark Ages.” Heavily processed, sped up robot voices, a woman holding out one note, and bits of timpani all help to bring the spacy drone down to earth. This is the chaotic element of Bardoseneticcube that I enjoy. Overall, this is quite enjoyable and makes me interested to hear more from Shinkiro. This album weighs in at around 52 minutes and is limited to 333 copies. ~ (CHAIN D.L.K.)

Traffic to brytyjska grupa rockowa założona w kwietniu 1967 roku, utożsamiana z ruchem hippisowskim. W pierwotnym składzie występowali Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood i Dave Mason. Po dwóch latach i wydaniu trzech płyt - Mr. Fantasy, Traffic i Last Exit - nastąpiło pierwsze zawieszenie działalności grupy. Steve Winwood i Ric Grech, były basista zespołu Family, uformowali efemeryczną supergrupę Blind Faith, czasami nazywaną SuperCream, gdyż pozostałymi jej członkami byli Eric Clapton i Ginger Baker. W 1970 roku Blind Faith rozpadł się, a Steve Winwood i Ric Grech zasilili kolejną supergrupę - Ginger Baker’s Air Force - jednakże po kilku wspólnych koncertach Steve Winwood i Ric Grech postanowili reaktywować Traffic. Wstawka zawiera debiutancki album zespołu.

Obcowanie z tym debiutem jest jak strzał prosto w ryja zakończony deptaniem jaj po upadku na podłogę!!!



'Summoned to Rise features some of the fastest, catchiest, darkest, meanest, smartest, most intricate thrash fucking metal to come down the pike in years. No letup. No duds. Just a fiery, eponymous opening volley. (...)' - Decibel Magazine

'Insane old school riffs for all your moshing needs, Jeff Hanneman style squealing solos (which made the hair on my arm stand up at points), brutal vocal deliveries that at times walk the line of really solid Death Metal vocals, and a ton of intense outstanding drumming throughout. Everything works on this album, from lyrical content, to the tone of the music, and of course that break neck pace the vast majority of the record offers.' - Hellbound.ca

'‘Summoned to Rise’ is a an all out assault that takes no prisoners! Fast songs, brutal thrash and death metal riffage and blast beats…..What more could you ask for?' - Metal Nexus



When is it appropriate to employ the term ‘supergroup’? Could it be in the instance of new Floridian act Create A Kill? Featuring members of Malevolent Creation, Gruesome and Solstice – this unstoppable supergroup was always gonna make an impact based on the line-up alone. However, little were our ears prepared for the onslaught that was to come on debut album Summoned To Rise. Not just in terms of pure fury, but also the sheer quality. The overall sound of Create A Kill is a perfect mesh of the previously-mentioned three bands, but with an unhealthy dose of Demolition Hammer injected into the death/thrash assault. This is raw, blistering, violent, nasty shit. And boy, do I love it!

Not only do these Floridians exhume pure malice, they do it in a way that’s weirdly accessible and…dare I say it…catchy! Hell, if the chorus to “Premeditated” hasn’t got you hooked after one playthrough, there’s something wrong with your brain. These memorable hooks provide moments of clarity amid the sheer maelstrom of this album. Riffs cut like razors, solos insanely channel their inner Kerry King, blast-beats pound at your brain – and the whole affair is wrapped in a chaotic vibe that just about keeps in control. The way everything sounds like it’s teetering on the edge of composure is exciting and irresistible. The varied vocal attack contributes to this massively. Although I’m unsure exactly which vocal style is performed by who, the combination of vile high shrieks, powerful low growls and Schuldiner-esque mids creates a real death/thrash party atmosphere.

The production quality is absolutely spot on, bringing back that raw, authentic early ’90s spirit. The cut-throat guitar tone is both grisly and fun, but the snappy bass/snare mix is utterly gorgeous. This is what Demolition Hammer’s Tortured Existence should have sounded like! Summoned To Rise is the definition of ‘all killer, no filler’. Every single cut delivers the madness at a blistering pace with not a second wasted. Even the mid-tempo segments are loaded with impact, such as the opening riffs to “Cold Blooded” and “Reap The Whirlwind”, or the verses in “Gauntlet Of Pain”. In fact, my favourite moments are the slower ilk which hit you like a fucking steamroller (see “Decimated” – what a sledgehammer of a track!). Structurally, this album flows beautifully – mixing the faster and slower sections, though never losing a single ounce of barbarism.

As previously stated, there are memorable hooks and standout moments abound on this album. These guys have a penchant for writing catchy death/thrash metal that doesn’t compromise the style or cheapen the brand. “Crave The Blade”, “Premeditated” and the hammering “Show Of Force” are all great examples of how this sub-genre can be accessible for newcomers whilst pleasing the elitists. However, the jewel in this record’s crown is the bonus track – dedicated to late Malevolent Creation frontman Bret Hoffman – “Flesh, Blood & Stone”. When Matt Harvey bellows out ‘FLESH AND GOLD AND BLOOD AND STEEL AND FUCKING STONE!!’, you know Bret himself would have been majorly proud of this LP. Create A Kill should be proud of this effort. Really proud. I cannot pinpoint any specific aspect that weakens it. Summoned To Rise is simply an incredible slice of no-holds-barred death/thrash metal that will have any fan of the genre headbanging like it’s 1989.

..::OPIS::..

Drummer, composer, lyricist, improviser, cultural theorist and the individual largely responsible for the existence of ReR/Recommended records, Chris Cutler (like his longtime musical sparring partner Fred Frith) has cast a long shadow over avant rock for over 30 years. He first came to prominence when he joined Henry Cow in 1971, but he had been active on London's psychedelic/underground scene since the mid 60s, and in the early 70s formed the Ottawa Music Company (a large collective of rock composers) with sometime Egg/Hatfields keyboards player Dave Stewart.

When Henry Cow ceased working in 1978, he was instrumental in setting up Recommended Records along with Nick Hobbs, Henry Cow's ex-manager, initially as a distribution service and subsequently as a label in its own right. He also formed the excellent Art Bears with Fred Frith and Dagmar Krause, in which he was lyricist as well as the drummer. Since then he has been involved in a bewildering number of projects, often simultaneously, including The Residents, Pere Ubu, News From Babel, Cassiber, Aqsak Maboul, The EC Nudes and P53. He has also worked as an improviser, notably with Fred Frith (see seperate entry), Thomas DiMuzio and Zeena Parkins. Further to all this, he has also developed a unique electric drum kit - to quote from the man himself: "There are no samples, pads or triggers, just acoustic drums amplified and modified with standard electronic processors ... All this is run into a small 16 channel mixer and out through various standard pedals and guitar effects" (from the sleevenotes to Solo). More details can be found on his website. At various points in its evolution, this kit can be heard on all his post Henry Cow recordings. To date there have been only 2 Cutler solo releases; Solo is live improvisations on the electric drumkit, while Twice Around The World is an album of soundscapes created for London based Resonance FM and described as 'an experiment in listening'. The discography also includes 2 albums recorded with electronics performer Thomas DiMuzio (who has also worked with 5UUs) and one with Zeena Parkins (News From Babel, Skeleton Crew).

A masterful and highly original drummer, he is well worth catching live where his unique style can be seen as well as heard. All of his albums can be recommended, but his collaborations with Thomas DiMuzio are perhaps the best place to start, in particular the masterful Dust. See also Cutler/Frith.

A seminal figure in the RIO scene, Cutler's solo and collaborative works are an essential addition to the RIO/Avant prog category.



10 CDs, 1 DVD, 80pp booklet and box.
To make public a mass of unreleased material I decided to wrap this musical collection into a box. These 10 CDs (and a DVD) include over five hours of unreleased materials, my three previously released solo CDs (‘solo’, ‘twice around the earth’ and ‘there and back again’); plus a double CD collection of tracks spanning 50 years of official recordings (It Makes Sense to Me), as well as the 22-hour radio programme I made for Radio Art Zone last year (that’s on the DVD). 36 hours. Comes with 2 fat books of documentation, artwork, photographs, published and unpublished texts.
for the avoidance of all confusion: of the 5 CDs of 'unreleased materials', 100 copies of 4 of them were privately printed for japan (as CC100, 200, 300 & 400), so a few of you may have them. CC500, the two books and the DVD appear for the first time.

The subscription edition is numbered and signed and comes with an extra CD not otherwise available.



A companion to 'Twice around the Earth, 'There and Back Again' uses 44 environmental recordings to explore - amongst other things - the way memory works, and how the experience of passing time is constructed. Mainly it's just meant to be good to listen to: surprising, serendipitous, mundane - but alien, the commonplace transfigured - an agglomeration of inadvertent sounds made haphazardly by the world and some of its inhabitants that were never meant to survive, and certainly not to be listened to repeatedly. And yet - they seem to add up. I listened to this many times and it keeps changing, though it can't. I don't understand it, but I like it. As a whole it's very different from 'Twice', though both share some locations (taken at different points) making reading across the two CDs another dimension of listening.

..::OPIS::..

Drummer, composer, lyricist, improviser, cultural theorist and the individual largely responsible for the existence of ReR/Recommended records, Chris Cutler (like his longtime musical sparring partner Fred Frith) has cast a long shadow over avant rock for over 30 years. He first came to prominence when he joined Henry Cow in 1971, but he had been active on London's psychedelic/underground scene since the mid 60s, and in the early 70s formed the Ottawa Music Company (a large collective of rock composers) with sometime Egg/Hatfields keyboards player Dave Stewart.

When Henry Cow ceased working in 1978, he was instrumental in setting up Recommended Records along with Nick Hobbs, Henry Cow's ex-manager, initially as a distribution service and subsequently as a label in its own right. He also formed the excellent Art Bears with Fred Frith and Dagmar Krause, in which he was lyricist as well as the drummer. Since then he has been involved in a bewildering number of projects, often simultaneously, including The Residents, Pere Ubu, News From Babel, Cassiber, Aqsak Maboul, The EC Nudes and P53. He has also worked as an improviser, notably with Fred Frith (see seperate entry), Thomas DiMuzio and Zeena Parkins. Further to all this, he has also developed a unique electric drum kit - to quote from the man himself: "There are no samples, pads or triggers, just acoustic drums amplified and modified with standard electronic processors ... All this is run into a small 16 channel mixer and out through various standard pedals and guitar effects" (from the sleevenotes to Solo). More details can be found on his website. At various points in its evolution, this kit can be heard on all his post Henry Cow recordings. To date there have been only 2 Cutler solo releases; Solo is live improvisations on the electric drumkit, while Twice Around The World is an album of soundscapes created for London based Resonance FM and described as 'an experiment in listening'. The discography also includes 2 albums recorded with electronics performer Thomas DiMuzio (who has also worked with 5UUs) and one with Zeena Parkins (News From Babel, Skeleton Crew).

A masterful and highly original drummer, he is well worth catching live where his unique style can be seen as well as heard. All of his albums can be recommended, but his collaborations with Thomas DiMuzio are perhaps the best place to start, in particular the masterful Dust. See also Cutler/Frith.

A seminal figure in the RIO scene, Cutler's solo and collaborative works are an essential addition to the RIO/Avant prog category.



10 CDs, 1 DVD, 80pp booklet and box.
To make public a mass of unreleased material I decided to wrap this musical collection into a box. These 10 CDs (and a DVD) include over five hours of unreleased materials, my three previously released solo CDs (‘solo’, ‘twice around the earth’ and ‘there and back again’); plus a double CD collection of tracks spanning 50 years of official recordings (It Makes Sense to Me), as well as the 22-hour radio programme I made for Radio Art Zone last year (that’s on the DVD). 36 hours. Comes with 2 fat books of documentation, artwork, photographs, published and unpublished texts.
for the avoidance of all confusion: of the 5 CDs of 'unreleased materials', 100 copies of 4 of them were privately printed for japan (as CC100, 200, 300 & 400), so a few of you may have them. CC500, the two books and the DVD appear for the first time.

The subscription edition is numbered and signed and comes with an extra CD not otherwise available.



A companion to 'Twice around the Earth, 'There and Back Again' uses 44 environmental recordings to explore - amongst other things - the way memory works, and how the experience of passing time is constructed. Mainly it's just meant to be good to listen to: surprising, serendipitous, mundane - but alien, the commonplace transfigured - an agglomeration of inadvertent sounds made haphazardly by the world and some of its inhabitants that were never meant to survive, and certainly not to be listened to repeatedly. And yet - they seem to add up. I listened to this many times and it keeps changing, though it can't. I don't understand it, but I like it. As a whole it's very different from 'Twice', though both share some locations (taken at different points) making reading across the two CDs another dimension of listening.
