"Turkana" is the lead off track from Fountain -- the second album by drummer Kid Millions and saxophonist Jim Sauter. Kid is founding member of Oneida and the ace behind the percussion-focused Man Forever. Sauter is synonymous with the 35-year juggernaut Borbetomagus -- pioneers of sound/jazz vivisection and inexorable vision. Since 2012 these two pushed forth this magnificent grandeur, merging physical power/sweat and sculpted electricity/stretched skins. While both are known for feats of extreme artistic endurance, as a duo they opt for ferocious concentration -- a savage pop-style of density and texture.

As an omnipotent duo, neither Kid or Sauter anchors the other, instead they smash the fulcrum and spin perpetually in free-fall. Sauter extracts new techniques and structures from his howling amplified tenor sax. On “Turkana” he builds layers of gnarled drones like some goddamn Dream Syndicate lasagna, while on “Vertical Sprint” Kid weaves polyrhythms and stuttering cross-beats around/into the heart of horn shards. There's zero gravity here.

Fountain's six pieces were recorded and mixed at Spaceman Sound in Brooklyn with Tom Tierney and Alex Mead-Fox, and mastered/ cut by Josh Bonati. This LP follows the debut Boanerges CD, released on Japan’s doubtmusic label in 2013. The album is pressed on pristine 150 gram vinyl by Quality Record Pressing. Edition of 800 with download.

Lee Ranaldo-Tim Barnes Duo

Recorded at the Richmond Zoo in Virginia in March 2016. Dedicated to the memory of Jed Speare (1954-2016), composer and phonographer; his Cable Car Soundscapes (Folkways) is a landmark album in phonography and 20th century music.

I had the honor (and pleasure) of meeting Jed and performing with him and Ernst Karel as part of the New England Phonographers Union in January 2015.

Haley Fohr aka Circuit des Yeux goes deep and dark with a chilling blend of drones and tones.
