English artist Richard Skelton is back with another release under the BROKEN CONSORT moniker. Gradual swells of violin & accordion along with piano & accordion. With the current fascination with electronic drones, these acoustic & organic drones are a welcome change. Absolutely beautiful music.

Broncho's Just Hip Enough to Be Woman leaves a particular mark on the music scene, with a sense of whimsy & a mix of garage, shoegaze, & synthy pop that turns on Double Vanity into something less Ocasek & more Jesus & Mary Chain.

Extreme saxophone free jazz from the usual suspect PETER BROTZMANN. This album, originally containing the the first three tracks, was recorded in 1968 in Breman, Germany at the studio Lila Eule. In addition to the first three tracks, there are alternate takes of "Machine Gun" and "Responsible...", and a live cut of "Machine Gun" as well. This is a very comprehensive document of the work BROTZMANN has been known to hammer out. Assaulting, brutal, and, at times, carrying an air of finesse...but mostly assaulting and brutal. Not for the casual "jazzy listener." This is a aural revolution of brass and percusion, and one of the inspirations for the flourishing noise scene.
