This new work of Trío Antimanierista is a transparent exposition of his antifacture in spontaneous creation. "Einsteintonto" is, perhaps, a pseudonimus of not-reason intelligence; an intelligence without directions, without prejuices… This record exposes a naked work of the little and sincere treasures recorded between December 2008 and January 2009, and composes a strange sountrack from rare and lonely places. Each track is a part of a foreing mistery. Each listener will compose his/her personal solution; without words and without "intelligence"…
Antonia Funes, David Díaz and Víctor Sequí plays not much instruments creating a kind of surreal poetry that is founded in the exactly moment of improvisation and interaction. After eight years of creation, TA have a telepathic microcosmo that can be shared with another persons around the world.
Antonia Funes: xilophone, cello, keyboard, castañuelas, kalimba and voice.
David Diaz: electric guitar, cello, wa-wa voice, armónica and armolódica de motor wa-wa.
Víctor Sequí: clarinet, percussions, melódicaand FM radio.
Recorded at Madrid. 2008-2009

This release registers the sound performance of Wilder Gonzales that took place in August 2008 at Sonoteca of Centro Fundacion Telefonica located in Lima, Peru. Gonzales Agreda shows with the valuable help of Hugo Medina on drums some of the most interesting places where peruvian avantgarde acts have arrived. You will be able to feel while listening "Invierno Peruano 3008" - translation: Peruvian winter 3008 - new psychedelic vibrations hardly influenced by people like Experimental Audio Research, Charlemagne Palestine or Silver Apples. It is one of the aims of the artist not just to free your mind of common media non sense but also to give you weapons for begin your own inner or outer revolution.
Wilder Gonzales Agreda was part of the peruvian 90's ethereal and post rocker scene called Crisalida Sonica. After taking part of such important bands like Avalonia and Fractal, he soon begun working solo. Gonzales has put out a considerable number of cdrs with his own independent label, Superspace Records; some of his works has received good reviews from magazines like The Wire, Losing Today, Rock de Lux and Go Mag.

Ambia by Mental Health Consumer is a collection of aural environments and scored emotions. It is an interplay of drones, sparse harmonies, soundtracks for half-sleep, feelings of awe and states in between. Mental Health Consumer recorded and mixed many of the tracks live, allowing a fuller immersion in the meditative immediacy of how one hears and responds to music.
Mental Health Consumer is a production alias of Brian Ruskin. Mental Health Consumer tracks run the genre spectrum from dance-oriented to atmospheric soundscapes and sonic experiments.
Brian began creating music as a child, intrigued by the interesting sounds made by hooking up cheap guitars and keyboards to effects pedals. They say that an amateur blames the equipment if the output’s bad, so Brian tried not to complain. Instead, he established a working method to embrace the limitations of obsolete technologies of proto-samplers, odds-and-end instruments and 2 or 4-track tape recording. Most importantly, a prolific output of recording during those formative years served as a dated document of where Brian was in terms of musical influence, emotional and personal state, and technical development.
Since 2002, Brian has integrated computer-based composition with live recording. The result has been a prolific stream of electronic albums under the name AViD: Advances in Obsolete Technology and more recently, greater sonic experimentation under the guise of Mental Health Consumer. Many of these records can be heard via Brian’s netlabel, Believe In Billy Records:
http://believeinbillyrecords.googlepages.com/
As a scientist and an artist, Brian Ruskin tries to achieve the careful balance between the calculated and emotive, well-crafted music that also resonates with the listener and creates a sound environment to explore. It’s an evolving process, a labor of love, and he sincerely hopes that Mental Health Consumer tracks provide you with an enjoyable listening experience.

Bridging analog and digital, acoustic and electronic, improvisation and manipulation, the original dadala album ‘recycles’ came about in 2004 when RDunlap began using software to remix and combine various recordings from his archives: solo recordings and duet sessions with Steven Peckman, Frank Dunlap and Dan Bartlett from 1985-1995. The source recordings used were for the most part free improvisation in an avant-garde and experimental vein, and many of them were already remixes, tape collage and overdubs of earlier material, weaving together layers of synchronicity across time.
dadala is an unconventional, experimental and avant-garde project from long-time outsider RDunlap combining, remixing and manipulating existing recordings of his own and others contributed by a variety of unconventional artists. To date (early 2009) seven dadala albums have been produced, plus a sampler CD of selections from the first five albums. Four of the albums are available for free download from www.peripheralmusic.org/rdunlap, others are available from CD Baby, iTunes and other online stores, and all can be streamed for free from last.fm.

"Knyaz Mishkin" - music band of intuition improvisation from Minsk, Belarus.

Князь Мышкин
Белорусская группа интуитивной импровизации «Князь Мышкин» существует около 18 лет. Ее основателем и идейным руководителем является гитарист Леонид Нарушевич, состав же играющих с ним музыкантов постоянно меняется. За это время команда записала полтора десятка альбомов (которые выходили почти исключительно на кассетах), переиграла на множестве фестивалей (в их числе «Сырок-5» в Москве, «Скиф-5» в Санкт-Петербурге, «Альтернатива» в Праге и др.), выпустила диск на американском лейбле Wood Records («Summer Session», 2001).
Несмотря на то, что группа явно тяготеет к работе с «большими формами», их композиции слушаются с неослабевающим интересом, буквально на одном дыхании. Причина в том, что построенной на свободной импровизации музыке удается избежать штампов и шаблонов любых жанров и стилей — как джазовых, так и роковых. Тут практически нет пустых или проходных мест, музыка никогда не топчется на месте, не раздувается, пытаясь заполнить гигантский объем бесконечными и бессмысленными сольными брейками отдельных инструментов или занудными повторами; она спокойно и естественно живет, дышит и развивается. А участники группы, кажется, всего лишь дают возможность распуститься этому невиданному цветку удивительной красоты, стараясь не задавить его неосторожными и неоправданными действиями. Они предпочитают работать с ритмом и мелодией, избегая шумов и диссонансов. Тут нет ни солирующих, ни аккомпанирующих инструментов, искра проскакивает в момент свободного взаимодействия музыкантов. По обыкновению вещи записываются вживую, без каких-либо наложений.

Sounds, visions & constructions by Oax and Yan of Joxfield ProjeX 2007-2009
The basic recordings for Picnic was an unfinished hour-long pure ambient/drone-piece recorded in 2007 which during autumn and winter 2008-2009 turned into what it is today with loads of rhythmic constructions, samples and additional playing.
Picnic is not meant for you to be in a hurry when listening. It’s this kind of music that slowly comes to you and takes over more and more of your mind and attention. A lot of things happens.
The duo Joxfield ProjeX consists of Oax and Yan. The music they make is what comes to their minds for the moment, no matter if it’s ambient, drone, psychedelic, jam, freeform, contemporary, improvised, soundscapes, concrete or whatever.
They do have a history of collaborations since the late sixties, but as Joxfield ProjeX they have been around since 2005.

Проект основан в 2004-м году художественной группой Солнцецветы в Минске (Беларусь). Солнцецветы — известны своими взрывными психоделическими представлениями и особенно смелыми звуковыми экспериментами в которых парадоксальным образом смешиваются примитивистский лоуфай и виртуозная работа со звуком, жизненные соки негритянской музыки и визионерство венских симфонистов. Вся эта мешанина происходит в формальных рамках стандартного (почти, если не считать использования радиоприемника и шумовых наводок) состава рок группы.
Волшебная Одноклеточная Музыка сначала возникла как теоретическая разработка СОЛНЦЕЦВЕТОВ. Идея заключалась в том, чтобы привлечь внимание слушателя к микродинамике музыкальной ткани, тембральным и тональным нюансам звучания обычного рок-ансамбля, резонансным артефактам усиленного звука. Для этого из музыки было предложено изьять структурный компонент, точнее разложить его на элементарный бит, элементарную ритмическую пульсацию. Лишенная структуры и темы музыка, приобретает качества особенной выразительности. Из-за постоянно меняющегося восприятия музыкантов и зрителей, в этой, на первый взгляд, убийственно монотонной музыке разворачивается развитие особого рода, по своим динамическим качествам приближающееся к музыке симфонической. Это Движение не вдоль музыки, а вовнутрь.
Сегодня Волшебная Одноклеточная Музыка это международное музыкальное движение, объеденившее музыкантов Минска, Чикаго, Москвы, Киева, Санкт-Петербурга. В рамках проекта Волшебная Одноклеточная Музыка одновременно существуют несколько ансамблей в разных городах: В.О.М.3 и В.О.М.5 в Минске, В.О.М.4 в Москве, и В.О.М.6 в Киеве. Проводятся фестивали Волшебной Одноклеточной Музыки, куда сьезжаются музыканты из разных стран и выходят их совместные сплит-релизы.
***
Magical Unicellular Music (V.O.M. – В.О.М.) – the project was started in 2004 by Solntsetsvety (Солнцецветы) artistic group in Minsk (Belarus). Solntsetsvety are famous for their explosive psychedelic performances and especially bold sound experiments that paradoxically mix primitivistic lo-fi and delicate sound-work, vital juices of afro-american music and visions of Vienna symphonists. All this mash up happens within the formal frame of a standard rock band line-up (almost standard, except for the use of radio and noise pickups), and just maybe, somewhere in the distance one could catch a glimpse of that notoriously famous ‘russian soul’.
Magical Unicellular Music is a desperate attempt to form and deliver somewhat valid shape of the ever-evading fabric of life. The result turned out to be simple, even primitive. Basically it turned out as protest against time, against continuous loss of memory and manic desire for changes. This manic craving for constant changes so familiar to all of us probably is the factor that makes human beings not take notice of objects and phenomena that require some in-depth study. One shouldn’t mix V.O.M. with most of the psychedelic culture, that is frequently filled with memory loss – V.O.M. suggests remembering. Remembering as much as one can, bit by bit. This is true, primitive music.
Several bands simultaneously function in the context of the Magical Unicellular Music project in different cities – V.O.M. III and V.O.M. V in Minsk, V.O.M. IV in Moscow.

'Thistledown' is a mix of abstract sounds and oddball melodic sparring, somewhat sweetened by the occasional song-like refrain. There is much that is jagged and spiky and unforgiving, like the coarsest of thistles, but there is also music that has a soft and ethereal delicacy, like down, ready to blow away with the slightest puff.
There are eight short improvised works. The three play together for fun, allowing themselves little ‘forbidden’ treats, such as short truncated bursts of jazz phraseology, tiny fragments of pop, and other similar ‘lapses of taste’. The result is a kind of strangulated lyricism permeated by sudden darting and abrupt changes of direction. The album makes no attempt to pursue a rigorous agenda of pushing forward the ‘boundaries of new music’, but there is a common sensibility at work, regulating the improvisational decision making process.
Mayne, O’Sullivan and Taylor are part of London’s vibrant free improvisation scene. They have each worked and performed with a wide variety of other musicians, including Eddie Prevost (AMM), Adam Bohman, John Bissett, Shabaka Hutchins and many others. Individually they have performed at many of the city’s leading improvisation venues, such as the Vortex, Café Oto, Battersea Arts Centre, the ‘Freedom of the city’ festival (programmed by Evan Parker amongst others), in addition to playing outside the UK in Poland and Hungary. These are their first offerings in this grouping, recorded over a number of sessions in the summer and autumn of 2008, at Goldsmiths College, London.
