#Upcoming #BandcampFriday London-based #OttoWillberg’s previous solo efforts have ranged from extended technique double bass to explorations of the acoustics of a 19th century artillery fort. But nothing he has committed to wax so far prepares a listener for “The Leisure Principle”, six unashamedly melodic improvisational workouts created almost entirely with heavily filtered bass harmonica and electric bass. Available via #BlackTruffle, September 1st. https://blacktruffle.bandcamp.com/album/the-leisure-principle

#Upcoming Trio of #JoeMcPhee, #MetteRasmussen, #DennisTyfus from a 2018 recording in Antwerp. The LP moves with anarchic swagger from explosions of clattering cymbals and bellowing horns to near-silent episodes of mysterious rumble and clunk. Available via #BlackTruffle, August 18th. https://blacktruffle.bandcamp.com/album/oblique-strategies

#Upcoming Previously unheard archival recording of the legendary improvising ensemble #MusicaElettronicaViva aka #MEV, captured in concert at Bard College, New York in 2012. A beautifully recorded example of the endlessly multi-layered MEV sound, with liner notes by #AlvinCurran and previously unseen photographs from across the many decades of the group’s activity. Available via #BlackTruffle June 23rd. https://blacktruffle.bandcamp.com/album/symphony-no-107-the-bard
