Mexico's first free jazz ensemble Atrás del Cosmos, a central force in the Mexican avant-garde arts community of the early 80’s, with an inventive, surreal and spiritual session that's a must-hear for fans of Cecil Taylor or Don Cherry’s ‘Organic Music’

“Atrás del Cosmos have been called Mexico’s first free jazz ensemble. Founded in 1975 by pianist Ana Ruiz, saxophonist Henry West, & percussionist Evry Mann, the trio soon became a central force in Mexico City’s creative arts community”

Real 3rd-eye business on this tripped out masterpiece from prolific aussie James Rushford, a sort of cross between blitzed medieval music x concrete improv that sounds like Graham Lambkin and 0PN on mushies. Sounds exactly like the artwork looks, 10/10

Love this, from a conversation between Theo Parrish and Mike Rubin in Blank Forms 09. Theo giving the perfect description of why records sound more amazing, feel more intimate, and mean so much more than 'chip-sticks' when DJing 😍

presenting another thing at Blank Forms tomorrow night! phase locked tuned sawtooth wave harmonies. it'll be raw but very beautiful blankforms.org/events/ellen-a…

“There’s no counting, it’s not numerical or time based. We look at each other and we know how to get to the next bit. It’s communicated and shared in a way that’s more external than a metric count.”
