fall 2005 release from tochnit aleph - split lp between these two minds, limited to a significantly low number for any jim-o-related produkt...

very glad that jim has fallen out of his odd-year dry-slump (possibly true; the rumors of him leaving s.y. to focus more on his own film and audio work?) to unearth a few vault-find pieces from the early 90s & farm them out to different labels for latter-day appreciation... personally, my all-time favorite pieces of jim’s are from around this time (see: “disengage”, “young persons’ guide to drowning”, “the ground below above our heads”, etc...) when he was still working directly on magnetic tape, composing long-form, slowly rising aggregates of acoustic/electric/electronic sound. his piece hereon certainly fits that mold, with a dry blast of titular instrumentation morphing in and out of character over his side... beautiful.

i’ve been hearing ankersmit’s name for a few years now (usually in reference to phill niblock), although he’s suddenly becoming very active with recent collaborations with kevin drumm and others... his side is pretty damn impressive; a wash of subtle serge & ems synthi layers with saxophone and computer processing; eye-opening ...

improvised music from japan extra 2006 special berlin issue

improvised music from japan, imj-308/9
out december 24, 2006

in japanese only
80 pages; 21cm (h) x 15cm (w)
2 cds included
cover and cd design by suzueri

in addition to interviews of 12 musicians/1 group residing in berlin (gregor hotz, nicholas bussmann, merle bennett, thomas ankersmit, ignaz schick, hans strobl, pure, annette krebs, andrea neumann, caramel empties, alessandro bosetti, boris baltschun, and kai fagaschinski), this "extra" issue of imj features 2 cds with 18 tracks by a total of over 30 musicians, almost all of whom are berlin residents: adeline rosenstein/andrea neumann, annette krebs/steffi weismann, kommando raumschiff zitrone, michael thieke unununium, lucio capece/axel doerner/robin hayward, tunar, alessandro bosetti, tony buck/andrea neumann, sink, marzipan marzipan, kalkuel & leidenschaft, boris hauf, phillip sollman, thomas ankersmit, ignaz schick/jason forrest, burkhard beins, rechenzentrum, and blumm.

the interviews were conducted by toshimaru nakamura during a visit to berlin in january 2005 (with the exception of the email interview of annette krebs by taku sugimoto, which took place between january and april 2006). in addition to discussing their musical activities, the artists share many of their thoughts about the berlin scene. their candid views reveal the dynamism that has characterized that scene since the late '90s. berlin musician nicholas bussmann was in charge of the selection of artists for the accompanying cds, and the result is an ideal compilation for those who want to know more about today's berlin scene. through the words and music of musicians on the scene, this issue explores the current situation of improvised music (and related genres) in berlin.

collection of answer-pieces on the oeuvre of dave philips’ late 80s hardcore band “fear of god.” damn - look at that lineup... reads like my own personal mix-tape from the noisier end of the contemporary sound-terrorism/experimental music spectrum. few disappoint with their decisively short remix-blasts... just about as good as remix-compilation discs get...
