About this product
Following his critically acclaimed collections Electronic Music from the Seventies and Eighties and Electronic Music from the Eighties and Nineties, Carl Stone pairs Baroo (March 2019) with a double-LP album of recent works, including the final section of InchFujikenInch, his epic journey through southeast Asian field recordings and street cassette culture. On all six tracks, composed between 2013 and 2019, Stone's pan-global playground of looping synths and Asian pop culture remains as fertile as ever, digitally shattered into unimagined patterns and gestures, either through the MAX programming language or (in the case of InchKikanbouInch) by generating unpredictable loops within an Elektron Octatrack sampler. The title track is the first recorded from Stone's ongoing collaboration with the Japanese vocalist Akaihirume. Elsewhere new influences come from rock (the slow drum break of InchBia BiaInch), disco (the Nile Rodgers-esque guitar riff InchKikanbouInch) and hip hop (the frenetic percussion loop of InchHan YanInch). Their diversity only adds to Stone's borderless musical vision, a world where rhythm becomes atmosphere, song becomes beat, and pop becomes art. Album Tracks 1. Han Yan 2. Bia Bia 3. Jame Jam 4. Kikanbou 5. Fujiken (Final Section) 6. Himalaya (With Akaihirume)

Carl Stone continues his late career prolific renaissance with a new album of sculpted, tuneful MAX/MSP fantasias. Stone InchplaysInch his source material the way Terry Riley's In C InchplaysInch an ensemble - with a loose, freewheeling charm connected to the ancient human impulse to make sound, melody, and rhythm from anything. Stone's unique technique simultaneously focuses and sprays sound like a symphony of uncapped fire hydrants. Is this techno, avant-garde, sound art? It's simply (or rather fantastically messily) Carl Stone. Album Tracks 1. Rikido 2. Longo 3. Korzo 4. Mozell's 5. Wat Dong Moon Lek 6. Apsara Jangara
Since 2018, London jazz rap duo Summers Sons, Brothers Turt Summers (vocals) and Slim Summers (production), have released five albums and accumulated over 50 million streams to date. They have a string of high-profile collaborations with The Silhouettes Project, Twit One, C. Tappin, Nix Northwest and Frankie Stew & Harvey Gunn. Dare To Wonder consists of 12 songs about love, life and connection. Compared to previous their releases, it's safe to call Dare To Wonder a feel-good album in it's best sense. It doesn't turn a blind eye to the madness of the world today but dares to take a step back and marvel at the beauty around us. Album Tracks 1. Cushty (Featuring C. Tappin) 2. Dreams (Featuring Kieron Boothe) 3. Patterns 4. Sweet Tooth 5. Soul Food 6. Shimmy 7. Promises (Featuring Ben B.C) 8. War Dubs & Lullabies 9. Lean on Me (Featuring Elsa) 10. Nothing But Love 11. Can't Believe My Eyes 12. Peace

I have always been searching for a way to articulate the intangible area between the recognizable and the unfathomable, a feeling perhaps informed by some long-abandoned experiments with psychedelics. This has been a continued pursuit starting with my tape experiments in the 1970's until the present, with technological evolution driving new ways of expression. With the exception of Xé May, which is performed on an Elektron Octatrack, these pieces were constructed for live performance using a laptop computer running programs I have built in the MAX programming language. Okajouki and Xé May were composed in 2011, all the rest are from 2018. The pieces use a technique of time slicing that I first started doing back in the 90's, notably with my piece MOM's, wherein sound files are metaphorically shattered in time like glass and then reorganized into mosaic patterns. The technique used to require laborious preparation outside of real-time before the files could be brought onstage. Now not only can it be done spontaneously while performing, but also with a degree of flexibility that I find quite liberating. They are a lot of fun to play and hopefully to listen. - Carl Stone Album Tracks 1. Okajouki 2. Baroo 3. Xe May 4. Sun Nong Dan 5. Panchita
