    Election (and post-election) mix

    Morton Feldman – Crippled Symmetry: at June in Buffalo

    I have been incredibly busy lately putting this together, and in fact it's the sum total of two years' worth of delays, snags, hiccups, and perfectionism. I'm very proud of it. The first release on my new "record label" frozen reeds. Please have a look. Morton Feldman Crippled Symmetry: at...

    Les McCann - Layers

    Why is this such an obscure record? Alternating laid back, floating textures with menacing mood swings and growling electric piano, this is a real keeper and definitely plugs a gap somewhere in the mystical plains of Kodwo Eshun's black futurist bullshit. Found it via an archived conversation...
