Music of the spheres, free jazz bursts
Jennifer Lucy Allan shares a minimalist guitar workout by Leda alongside cello-computer interactions from Dorothy Carlos. Plus free jazz and electronic avant-garde compositions
Jennifer Lucy Allan digs into her personal record collection and shares music she has had on heavy rotation recently, including minimalist guitar workouts from Leda, the strange, dreamy Japanese new wave of Akikawabaya’s album The Castle II, and a song from Australian trio The Dead C's extended universe.
Handpicked from the New Releases pile, meanwhile, we hear mysterious sounds resulting from cello-computer interactions recorded by Dorothy Carlos, followed by the pioneering piece Music of The Spheres, an avant-garde electronic composition from 1977 by Johanna Beyer, which was reissued this month. Plus: a taste of the explosive free jazz sound typical of multi-instrumentalist and archivist Juma Sultan's Aboriginal Music Society as well as hazy lo-fi post punk from Cuneiform Tabs.
