Nils Ostendorf/Santiago Botero Duo : 17 Años Bajo Tierra

Listen to Elephantine, the opening track of Flying Street الشارع الطيّار an album by Sam Shalabi (oud) + Stefan Christoff (piano), released in Nov. 2014 by Howl arts collective. 

Sam Shalabi wrote in The Wire magazine about this track :

"Our duo began as a friendship that grew out of long conversations about music, social justice and politics and then evolved naturally into this musical dialogue. The core of our approach is to continue that conversation and hear how these two mother instruments (maybe the two most weighted down by their own respective traditions and tropes) might speak directly and simply to each other through improvisation. This piece is named after a Nubian Island in Aswan, in Upper Egypt and is inspired by it and music from the region."

amplified clarinet and trumpet, guitars, nimb (18:39) - excerpt

from MW008
amplified clarinet and trumpet, guitars, nimb 
by Sound of the Mountain with Tetuzi Akiyama and Toshimaru Nakamura

Tetuzi Akiyama - guitars
Toshimaru Nakamura - no-input mixing board
Elizabeth Millar - amplified clarinet
Craig Pedersen - amplified trumpet

There is a clear affinity amongst the members of this quartet for mixing acoustic and electric elements and extending the physical possibilities of their instruments. Montreal-based Sound of the Mountain (Elizabeth Millar, amplified clarinet & Craig Pedersen, amplified trumpet) met Japanese improvising musicians Tetuzi Akiyama (guitar) and Toshimaru Nakamura (no-input mixing board) in Tokyo in August 2017. Several concerts and a recording session at the legendary GOK studio in Kichijoji were the foundation for this collaborative effort in creating sound together, putting focus on the musical possibilities of form and interaction inherent in improvised music.

Recorded by Yoshiaki Kondo at Gok Sound, Kichijoji, Tokyo, October, 2017.
Mastered by Taylor Deupree at 12k Mastering.
Mixed, designed, manufactured and assembled by Mystery & Wonder

All music by Sound of the Mountain, Akiyama and Nakamura

Press release
Title: First room
Artist: Martin Taxt
SOFA 582 (CD/DD)
EAN: 7041880999803
Release date: 18th of September 2020.
First room is the debut solo album from microtonal tuba player and composer Martin Taxt. The album is the first in a series of works investigating possible relations between architecture and music. First room is a tribute to the Japanese tearoom and the tatami mat. The floor plan as shown on the cover has been used as a foundation for the musical score, performed by Inga Margrethe Aas on viola da gamba and double bass, and Martin Taxt on microtonal tuba and sine waves. The album is an intricate mix between a studio recording and a live performance, both recorded in the same room over two days. The live musicians are often shadowing the recorded material, and with subtle changes in pitch and timbre the combined sound of live and recorded sound create an ambiguous and
at times fragile sound. The performance included live video from visual artist Kjell Bjørgeengen. Video stills from the concert is printed in the attached booklet.
