December 18, 2023

Yuko Zama's Elsewhere label (not to be confused with her partner Jon Abbey's Erstwhile label) released its first albums in the spring of 2018, which means that 2023 saw the label's fifth anniversary. Without any fanfares or brouhaha the label carried on as it has throughout those years, releasing a steady stream of high-quality recordings by ...

September 22, 2022

Given that past albums on the Elsewhere label have already featured such Wandelweiser favourites as Dante Boon, Jürg Frey, Anastassis Philippakopoulos, Michael Pisaro-Liu, Stefan Thut and Guy Vandromme, it was no surprise when the label released Betula, the debut album from Dutch composer and clarinetist Germaine Sijstermans. Her track “M" had already appeared on the album ...

When is a double album not a double album? That question is raised by the latest pair of Elsewhere releases from the Rotterdam-based composer and pianist Reinier van Houdt. The two come in separate sleeves, have different, unconnected titles, different cover art and were recorded months apart, although they both feature van Houdt alone. The two ...

by John Eyles
July 6, 2022

Ever since its first release, Blurred Music, in July 2018, the Elsewhere label has never been reluctant to release multi-disc albums when the music has merited them. Of the label's twenty-one albums to date, three have been double albums, and two triple albums--that first release and this one, Monochromes. Another characteristic of Elsewhere releases has been ...
