While Composed featured a number of guests (David Byrne, Caetano Veloso, and Nels Cline among them) and an orchestral sound, it was constructed one instrument at a time by Bischoff. Here, he's joined by the 21-piece chamber ensemble Contemporaneous. An instrumental album, Cistern was borne out of recording experiments in a two-million-gallon water tank beneath Washington's Fort Warden, a defender of Puget Sound. Bischoff found that if he snapped his fingers or cleared his throat, the reverberation in the empty tank lasted 45 seconds. That fact inspired the title track and influenced the slowed pace of the rest of the album. Its reflective character also draws on memories of his unconventional childhood aboard a sailboat in the Pacific with his parents. Piano tones, strings, an echoing drum, and tambourine open track one, \"Automatism.\" An atmospheric slow boil, the piece uses repetition and small changes for impact, but tremolos, percussiveness and, at times, performance muscle, keep it from ever drifting into the background. As the title and backstory suggest, reverb is a major player on the record, though it was recorded in a church rather than the underground tank. \"Cistern\" features a repeated melodic motif that works its way through a string arrangement that incorporates woodwinds, horns, and shimmering bells. Elsewhere, electronics blend with strings and obscure the tempo on \"Cas(s)iopeia,\" and dissonance creeps about trudging low strings on \"The Wolf.\" Even without prior knowledge of the composer's nomadic youth, Cistern evokes adventure and the forces of nature. Landing closer to film scores and instrumental post-rock than to the quirkier chamber pop of Composed, Cistern doesn't play out like a sequel, but fans of that album may well find themselves still drawn to the musician's particular spark.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"LimitContentHeightCntntFrm\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"LPs New","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42706138529985,"sku":"","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/JherekBischoff_Cistern2.jpg?v=1688428213"},{"product_id":"jeremy-bible-jason-henry-vryashn-us-2011-infraction-infx-049-lp-white-vinyl-lp","title":"Jeremy Bible \u0026 Jason Henry ‎– Vryashn, US 2011 Infraction ‎– INFX 049 LP, White Vinyl LP","description":"\u003ch2\u003eJeremy Bible \u0026amp; Jason Henry ‎– Vryashn, US 2011 Infraction ‎– INFX 049 LP, White Vinyl LP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe contents, conveyed when placed on graceful turntable, find Bible and trusty sidekick Henry stewards of a veritable flotilla of sources manipulated to produce soundings that are as upwellings from the deep.

One is the usual exemplary sound from ECM, for one thing, captured at a Danish museum that's a fine stand-in for an interior space where folk music would reside. For another, there's a feel for the smaller details of the various instrumental traditions on the part of the musicians, some of whom have played in folk bands themselves: violinist Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen and cellist Fredrik Schøyen Sjölin contribute convincing original tunes themselves, and Sørensen changes the texture up with harmonium and glockenspiel effectively. The program is intelligently put together, with a little medley of joined traditional (or traditional-style) tunes giving way to more elaborate arrangements, all by the quartet members themselves. Sample one of the more contrapuntal pieces, like Drømte mig en drøm. And ECM makes room within its usual set of arty, black-and-white photographs for a highly engaging set of notes about the tunes. The one thing that remains murky is why this music should be played by a string quartet, a medium that hardly fits it musically or historically. The players offer this: \"Is it meaningful to explore what happens, when the 'function' of a melody is tweaked? Can a funeral chorale be used to celebrate Christmas? Can a rustic folk dance conjure up feelings of melancholy and contemplation? Is a traditional Norse boat song supposed to be sung by the men at oars or the women at home? And what happens when a classical string quartet travels yet again through the world of Nordic folk music?\" The logical thread is not quite clear, but there's much to enjoy on the album.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LPs New","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48934434078913,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/DanishStringQuartet_LastLeaf.jpg?v=1712983695"},{"product_id":"max-richter-the-new-four-seasons-vivaldi-recomposed-vinyl-lp","title":"Max Richter – The New Four Seasons Vivaldi Recomposed, Vinyl LP","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMax Richter – The New Four Seasons Vivaldi Recomposed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"work_1\" class=\"c-tracklist__work js-work\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-track c-track--work\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-track__all-format-info\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"work_9\" class=\"c-tracklist__work js-work\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-track__details js-work-details\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMax Richter's 2012 Recomposed album was an enormous success, topping charts in many countries (not just the usual classical-oriented ones) and making its way onto numerous soundtracks, including that for the television series Bridgerton. For those rare souls who haven't encountered it, it was a sort of contemporary remake of Vivaldi's Four Seasons violin concertos, using the originals as thematic source material to a greater or lesser degree and subjecting them to electronic treatment. It has become almost as ubiquitous as the concertos on which it was based. Now, Richter has remade Recomposed, even recomposing it a bit; the new album is just under four minutes shorter than its predecessor. He also recruits London's ethnically diverse Chineke! Orchestra, gives them gut-stringed period instruments on which to play (the players were using these for the first time, and this works quite a bit better than you might expect), and collaborates with a new violinist, the wirier Elena Urioste in place of Daniel Hope, and also uses \"period\" electronics, playing a vintage Moog synthesizer himself. Deutsche Grammophon's notes reassure classical listeners that they may not recognize the difference between the Moog and the earlier contemporary electronics, and perhaps this is a problem as well for the many young electronic music fans who have come to Richter, but for anyone around in the 1970s, Richter's bass lines and sonic washes will be quite recognizable. Is Richter simply trying to milk his original concept? Maybe, but in a sense, this was and remains the point. Richter has written that he wanted to use period instruments on the original Recomposed recording but couldn't interest recording companies in the idea. They add a fresh wrinkle to the sound, and the whole new project is an intriguing attempt to see what remains of Vivaldi in an era when music evolves through remixes and through sampling of earlier material rather than being fixed and discrete. There is even a \"Levitation Mix\" of the \"Spring 1\" movement, as if to say that the process will continue beyond its latest iteration. It's safe to say that this release has something to offer even to those who know the original Recomposed album well, or for that matter, who know the original Four Seasons well.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eReview by James Manheim \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Deutsche Grammophon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48936118255809,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/MaxRichter_TheNewFourSeasonsVivaldiRecomposed_VinylLP.jpg?v=1737673257"},{"product_id":"danish-string-quartet-keel-road-germany-2024-ecm-records-2785","title":"Danish String Quartet – Keel Road, Germany 2024 ECM Records 2785","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDanish String Quartet – Keel Road\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeel Road Review by James Manheim \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Keel Road of this album's title is, in the words of the Danish String Quartet, \"a retracing of the musical pathways across the North Sea.\" Such a thing is not unknown to folk groups from either the British Isles or Scandinavia, who have often incorporated tunes from both regions into their performances. The Danish String Quartet has issued several albums of folk material, and one might easily imagine this material being played at European folk festivals and the like. There are traditional tunes from Denmark, Norway, the Faroe Islands, Ireland, and England. Yet this is not really a folk album; the material is expanded in the direction of classical chamber music in several ways. There are new compositions from the group's first violinist (Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen) and cellist (Fredrik Schøyen Sjölin) that depart from traditional models, and the adaptations of the music to the string quartet medium are called arrangements but, as often as not, are something more, with introductions and transitional material. There are additions of spinet, harmonium, bass, and clog fiddle (the southern Swedish träskofiol), all played by the quartet's members. Especially interesting is the inclusion of three pieces by the blind Irish musician and composer Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738), who, several centuries ago, was doing something akin to what the Danish String Quartet accomplishes here. This highly recommended album comes with studio sound from ECM that exceeds even that label's usual high standards, creating an intimate, true chamber music sound.

There's something perversely fabulous about the thought of this warped masterwork wandering into 60,000 unsuspecting British homes in 1973. Faust's second-and-a-half album hit the shops to celebrate their signing to the nascent Virgin Records, who were looking to take advantage of the zeitgeist for German music at that time. Undeterred by the fact the band's unwillingness to engage with the commercial landscape had seen them dropped from Polydor, Branson and co. Cooked up a suitably spectacular marketing strategy, selling the LP for 49p, the bargain price of a single. What was lurking within the grooves was a condensed collage of outtakes, oddities, sketches and samples previously known to the band's nearest and dearest as The Faust Party Tapes - and how you wish you'd been to those parties. Cacophonous keys and roaring drones splinter into a deranged hybrid of tumbling toms and yelping vocals; committed experimentalism which in no way prepares you for the beautiful ballad which follows. Armed with acoustic guitar, playful piano and panning vocals, Faust fashion a pastoral idyll imbued with the most profound yearning. \"Flashback Caruso\" brims with Byrds-ian jangle and Syd's psychedelia, it's non-sensical English lending the piece a Confucian lyricism perfect for expanded minds. Sliced and spliced between TV snippets, dissonant trumpet and the sound of someone pissing, the utterly freaky fuzz-rock of \"J'ai Mal Aux Dents\" sounds positively radio-friendly, far less far out than if it were encountered alone. Compared to the non-musical madness beside it, this thrash-jazz trance dance makes perfect sense, as does the corrosive breakbeat of \"Two Drums, Bass, Organ\", a mutant funk workout which rivals Can in an all-German dance off. The progressive and symphonic \"Dr. Schwitters\", dissected by fragments of dissonant process music, haunted vocal takes and the proto-industrial grind of \"Elerimomuvid\", charts a course for the dark side of the moon more suited to the serious cosmonauts of the world. Then the record freefalls into disorienting drum workouts, mixing desk experiments and a wicked premonition of no-wave jazz (\"Hermann's Lament\") before taking slight respite in the beauty of \"Rudolf Der Pianist\" and \"I've Heard That One Before\". The particles of prepared piano, power tools and tape echo continue to cascade through the soundspace, gradually building into the final trilogy of \"Stretch Out Time\", \"Der Baum\" and \"Chère Chambre\", which return to conventional song structure, albeit in the group's typically twisted style. Once again though, in comparison to the wonderfully weird pieces which precede them, these three tracks are entirely accessible, and in this lies the brilliance of the album.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"LPs New","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49340644720833,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/Faust_TheFaustTapes_VinylLP.jpg?v=1749865740"},{"product_id":"mary-lattimore-mac-mccaughan-new-rain-duets-vinyl-lp","title":"Mary Lattimore \u0026 Mac McCaughan – New Rain Duets, Vinyl LP","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMary Lattimore \u0026amp; Mac McCaughan – New Rain Duets, Vinyl LP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn an age full of exhausting noise, chaos and unconscious verbalism, Mary Lattimore and Mac McCaughan's \"New Rain Duets\" offers an impossibly gorgeous antidote.

Like the textures on Bowies Berlin albums with Eno, there is a constant sense of beauty and foreboding coexistent.

These nuanced variations offer devotees fresh perspectives on familiar works, while new listeners encounter Battiato's pioneering electronic experiments at their most distilled and powerful. The physical presentation honors the album's legacy with premium materials: the marbled vinyl reflects Battiato's fusion of precision and organic flow, while the faithful reproduction of original artwork preserves the compilation's distinctive 1970s aesthetic.

Though he studied at the prestigious arts institutions Juilliard and Mills College, by the mid-1960s Reich set about dismantling the very orthodoxy that he had been trained in. Forming a new musical language based on repetitive processes, Reich became established as part of the so-called \"Big Four\" of New York minimalists (along with La Monte Young, Terry Riley and Philip Glass). Reich's influence can easily be seen today in both the classical world and contemporary pop music. \"Four Organs\" is the ultimate minimalist composition. Performed by Reich, Glass, Art Murphy and Steve Chambers, four identical Farfisa organs strike a single chord and gradually lengthen each note to produce polyrhythms between the players. Anchored by Jon Gibson's stoically-steady pulse on maracas, the piece deconstructs its opening burst to a sustained mass of sound – stretching the tones to create (in Reich's words) \"slow-motion music.\" \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eInspired by Reich's early training on drums, \"Phase Patterns\" treats the keyboards like tuned percussion instruments: a basic rhythm pattern is played in unison and almost imperceptibly increases tempo to move out-of-sync. Each progressive cycle emphasizes unique figures that are not generated by an individual alone, but rather emerge from the communal expression of the group. Originally released on Shandar in 1971, Four Organs \/ Phase Patterns is one of the most highly regarded avant-garde recordings of the past 50 years.

And, working remotely between Australia and America, English and Vitiello have a long history of playful experimentation. On their past albums—2011’s Acute Inbetweens and 2014’s Fable—English and Vitiello have reveled in modular synthesis, field recordings, and the porous boundaries between a given sound and its distance from the source. Across Trinity’s five pieces, the pair and their collaborators plunge the listener into dynamic, floral worlds that are warm, enigmatic and spacious.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSteve Roden, credited on Trinity's final track as playing electronics and “mystery sounds,” died of early-onset Alzheimer’s in 2023. His contributions are delicate and soft, yet among the album’s most vigorous: we hear guitar harmonics, gentle notes, strokes like a violin bow. It's a fitting coda to an open-minded album, which invites us to lean in close to the mystery and listen for what we might each find.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Dreams Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49997376749761,"sku":null,"price":52.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/lawrence-english-stephen-vitiello-trinity.jpg?v=1771555918"},{"product_id":"midori-hirano-otonoma-vinyl-lp","title":"Midori Hirano – Otonoma, Opaque Pink Coloured Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cdiv id=\"trackInfo\" class=\"leftColumn\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"trackInfoInner\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"about-label\"\u003eMidori Hirano – Otonoma, Opaque Pink Coloured Vinyl LP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tralbumData tralbum-about\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eThe artistry of Midori Hirano lives in the resonance between sonic and visual worlds. Over her distinguished career the Berlin-based, Kyoto-born composer, pianist, and synthesist has crafted a distinctive voice straddling the spheres of classical music and harmonies with abstraction and invention. In addition to works under her own name, Hirano has released dynamic experiments under her MimiCof moniker as well as composed for film, television, art exhibitions and world expos. Hirano is acclaimed for crafting emotive works that stimulate all the senses with impressionism, or painting with sound. OTONOMA is the culmination of her work synthesizing these elements and highlights her acumen as a practiced and intuitive artist. The album infuses Hirano’s more classical sense of harmony on the piano with the endless textural possibilities of synthesizers. Like nebulas coalescing into galaxies, the pieces of OTONOMA emanate hues dense with subtle layers of color folded into gradients, arresting and radiant.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eHirano began her musical life learning piano and classical forms, eventually extending into more experimental territory with analog and modular synthesizers. The creation of OTONOMA found Hirano merging the distinct phases and parallel journeys in her\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e music – both under her own name and as MimiCof – into a wholly realized voice. The album sculpts her divergent musical identities into complimentary forces, infusing her more classical sense of harmony on the piano with the endless textural possibilities of synthesizers. In Japanese the word “Oto” means “sound” and “Ma” refers to the “space” or “interval” between things. So, “Otonoma” literally means “the space between sounds.” In classical usage, “Ma” can also mean “room” which allows a different reading, “a room of sounds”. “I titled the album with the hope that listeners would move through these different spaces of sound as they listen,” Hirano notes. “Like moving through rooms, the album showcases my various sound palettes.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pieces that compose OTONOMA offer a playful blend of spontaneity and precise compositional intent. Hirano employs variable sequencers and modular synth patches with varied sound patterns, a counter point to her curious melodies. “Illuminance,” a foundational track on the album, has rich textures and a searching modular synth. Her emphasis on analog synth textures and intertwining that with piano creates and the varied timing is a signature of the atmosphere of Otonoma. “Ame, Hikari” was initially composed for a photo exhibition of Japanese artist Rinko Kawauchi’s work at Fotografiska Berlin and captures the rain (ame) and light (hikari) of Kawauchi’s photos. The stately lone piano of “Rainwalk” offers a minimalist, affecting snapshot of a moment in time while pieces like “Aurora” take a more wide-eyed, macrocosmic view with fluttering electronics and a surging drone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout OTONOMA, Hirano’s compositions seep over their sonic borders and through the complex intersection of rhythm \u0026amp; tone are an affecting listen. The intersection between sound and space embodies the architecture of this beautiful impressionistic album. In the deft hands of its architect, Midori Hirano, the music is remarkable for its reflective and connective beauty, a sensational sensorial experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003ca\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Thrill Jockey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50050333311169,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1407\/4970\/files\/MidoriHirano_Otonoma_ca4ddfe7-7854-42f2-a6c7-68cc62b943c9.webp?v=1773457910"},{"product_id":"roberto-cacciapaglia-sonanze-vinyl-lp","title":"Roberto Cacciapaglia - Sonanze, Vinyl LP","description":"\u003ch2\u003eRoberto Cacciapaglia - Sonanze, Vinyl LP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eRoberto Cacciapaglia is an Italian composer and pianist who started out in the fertile Milan avant-garde scene of the 1970s, which included Franco Battiato, Giusto Pio, Lino Capra Vaccina, Francesco Messina, among others.
