Read "The Catastrophist" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

Tornano i Tortoise e subito gli affezionati della prima ora iniziano a sudare freddo. Non è infatti che i lavori del gruppo di Chicago prodotti nel nuovo millennio avessero convinto troppo, impelagati in una terra prog-fusion in cui si stentava a rintracciare l'urgenza dei primi, fantastici dischi.

Pauline Oliveros: Accordion & Voice

Read "Accordion & Voice" reviewed by Karl Ackermann

by Karl Ackermann

It's understandable if Pauline Oliveros is not a top-of-mind name, even after more than five decades in music.
