Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"Three brand new spaced-out transatlantic duo explorations, available on 7" vinyl from Astral Editions. Ashley and I used to live in the same house in Providence RI in 2007. Its been awhile. Released on everyone�s preferred 7� vinyl format. A stunning art object of sound and vision."-Jeffrey Alexander

The Wire magazine said: "a pan-Atlantic collaboration between London based instrumentalist Ashley Paul and Philadelphia based psychedelicist Jeffrey Alexander. Both play guitar, keys and stuff, and Paul sings. Unlike her more jazzoid outings. the feel here is more similar to the area Alexander worked with Dire Wolves, It's a sweet and drifting ramble through post-acid landscapes, in which ghosts attempt to explain their ideas of corporeality in words you can't quite understand."

Their first album after a 6-year break, the collaboration of vocalist Julie Tippetts and multi-reedist & electronic artist Martin Archer is heard in two distinct presentations: a large and stunningly complex suite with an ensemble of acoustic and electronic artists; and a sequence of 13 separate and contrasting songs, performed by various small groups drawn from the JTMA Ensemble.

A collection of original songs and interpretations inspired by Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg, from vocalist Hélène Breschand, also performing on harp, electronics & field recordings, in a duo with Elliott Sharp, who creates grooves and instrumental environments on guitar, synth, bass, drum programming & electronics, each song beautifully fractured and rich in detail.

	Meyer, Sabina / Marco Dalpane Cabaret Per Nulla (ANTS Records)
Pianist Marco Dalpane and soprano Sabina Meyer create a virtual cabaret of songs using the music of Erik Satie and John Cage, interlacing pieces by each in a delicate set of songs that draw the two composers together through a surprising commonality, the lyrics provided from texts written by J. Peladan, C. Mendes, H. Pacory, J.P. Contamine de Latour, &c.; lovely.
