These two mini-CDs, both pretty interesting, are the first catalogue numbers from a UK micro-label Earth Monkey Productions in Cumbria; have a look at their website for further affordable goodies, which will probably disappear quite quickly as their editions are tiny. Clutter vs Susan Matthews have their Slow Corrosion EP (EMC002), which is kind...
This is the percussive noise made by an amorous hermit crab as it beats out a friendly tattoo on the shell of a potential partner…babababdadadb—also the drumming of Charles Hayward, pounding and singing on this new coloured seven-inch single Out Of Order c/w Beside (DOTODOTDOT005V). The existential pun made by Hayward’s lyrics is along...

Five vinyl full-lengths here for your perusal…haven’t heard them yet, this is mainly just to let you know they exist. Got a couple of recent releases from the German Dekorder label, both representing work from the Finnish underground. Hevoset‘s eponymous LP (DEKORDER 024) has the brightly-coloured painting of the enlightened magic visage by Jani...
Nole Plastique‘s Escaperhead (NEXSOUND NSP03) arrived from the Ukraine on the reliable Nexsound label. Nole Plastique are a Russian electro-acoustic duo of Roman Kutnov (the founder member) and Aleksei Belousov (a recent collaborator), who have been generating ‘romantic noise’ since 2004. However on this, their first full-length release, they’re apparently experimenting with song-form and...

NO-FI is an English micro underground label who caught my attention due to judicious use of vinyl pressings and of course the wide range of quality music on offer from it. Not had time to fully explore these goodies in the auditionary mode, but the potential for ear-based yocks and jimpy-jollies through both lug-canals...
This is to let you know the ESP-Disk’ reissue programme, and new issue programme, continues with unabated force. In this last batch I’ve gotten three examples of ‘classic’ mid-1960s underground jazz reissues from the catalogue, namely Henry Grimes Trio with The Call (ESP 1026), The Giuseppi Logan Quartet (ESP 1007) and the Milford Graves...
