GROSSE ABFAHRT "Everything that Disappears" (2007) - Emanem 4146TOM DJLL (trumpet, pocket cornet & preparations),
MATT INGALLS (Bb clarinet, bass clarinet),
FRÉDÈRIC BLONDY (piano),

GEORGE CREMASCHI (double bass & electronics),
LÊ QUAN NINH (surrounded bass drum),
JOHN BISCHOFF (electronics),
TIM PERKIS (electronics),
GINO ROBAIR (energised surfaces & voltage made audible).
Tom Djll put this electro-acoustic improvising nonet together when Frédèric Blondy and Lê Quan Ninh were visiting the San Francisco area, resulting in some extended performances that are more about the group than the individuals.BARKINGSIDE (2006/7) - Emanem 4147
ALEX WARD (clarinet),
ALEXANDER HAWKINS (piano),
DOMINIC LASH (double bass),
PAUL MAY (percussion).
An improvising quartet comprising four excellent young improvising musicians based in London and Oxford, none of whom have ever been to the outer London suburb of Barkingside. Two complete performances from concerts at Cambridge University and the 2007 FREEDOM OF THE CITY festival in London.
SPONTANEOUS MUSIC ENSEMBLE "Bare Essentials" (1972/3) - Emanem 4218JOHN STEVENS (percussion & cornet) &
TREVOR WATTS (soprano sax).
Duo recordings selected from the Trevor Watts cassette archive that have cleaned up very nicely. The music is very conversational, and ranges from free jazz ferocity to quiet stillness. Until this release, there were no published SME recordings from between mid 1971 and late 1973, and none of Stevens playing cornet before late 1973 - so a considerable gap has been breeched by some vital playing, mostly at London's Little Theatre Club.
