a place for curious ears




CRAWLING WITH TARTS - Ludiques Manifestes
zzz -1 CD-R (10 tracks, 69 minutes)
Three live recordings from concerts held in Oakland in 1991 and 1992. Intended to be released on cassette in 1999, but kept in the drawer until now, this work is published for the first time. Improvisation sketches on percussive patterns, self-constructed instruments, and even a punky, fast and furious song. Different sides of a group always different from the rest. mp3: limp drum love mp3: glue 6

GI GASPARIN & FELICE PESAVENTO - Caja Antelice
zzz - 10 CD-R (13 tracks, 58 minutes)
A work based on sampling, tapes, and records with some guitar and keyboard additions. It may sound like dark ambient at first, but it suddenly turns into looped rhythms then suddenly it turns into more structured compositions then suddenly..... mp3: track 7 mp3: track 5
PIUME E SANGUE - Abbandono della patria nipponica
zzz - 9 CD-R (13 tracks, 45 minutes)

GI GASPARIN & JACOPO ANDREINI - Il giro del mondo in 80 pezzi
zzz - 8 CD-R (80 tracks, 77 minutes)
That is, “Around the World in 80 Tracks”. Gasparin and Andreini are active in the Italian impro/alternative circuit since the early 90’s. Here they join forces and travel around every musical genre and style you can mention. This is the world music you’ll never find in a world music shop. mp3: a track mp3: another track
GI GASPARIN - 24 soli
zzz - 7 CD-R (24 tracks, 72 minutes)
Always busy with many groups (Piume E Sangue, Pangolinorchestrà, Gi-Napajo, etc.) and collaborative projects (just look few lines below), the workaholic Gasparin had the time to record this solitary work. Just a guitar, a keyboard, and a misterious “horizontal rantola” as instruments, but lots of ideas and influences. mp3: jj in asolo
DsorDNE - Grafio ricerca 002
zzz - 6 CD-R (11 tracks, 55 minutes)
Originally released on cassette by Hax twenty years ago, Grafio Ricerca 002 was remastered by Marco Milanesio/DsorDNE himself and enhanced with three unreleased tracks.

SPIRAL - The Digital Vapor Glitch-Noise Fusion According to Spiral

KAPOTTE MUZIEK - Enhanced Room Acoustics
zzz - 4 CD-R (3 tracks, 57 minutes)
Previously released on cassette in 1996, the two original tracks are here enhanced by a new one especially composed and performed by Freiband in 2007. From the analogic sound modifications of last century's industrial age to the micro and nearly audible variations of the new digital era. mp3: e.r.a. 2 (excerpt)

THE LETHARGY SERIES
VINTAGE LUNHARE
NEWS - APRIL 2010
After an ugly 2009, here we go again. Out now are two new works by Goh Lee Kwang and Jeph Jerman, and a double CDr compilation by Kapotte Muziek.
KAPOTTE MUZIEK - Assemblage
zzz - 15 double CD-R (44 tracks, 130 minutes)
The Assemblage project started as a 7" which had music and visuals open to be used by anyone who wished to do so. From that point of departure, KM produced three cassettes: 'Ages Be Alms', 'As Smega Bel' and 'Clyicsert'. All this music is gathered here, with the addition of a compilation track and a remix created by Freiband in 2010 using all the material involved in this package.
