    <description>Craters are the signature of some great event. The earth breaks open. Something
    falls from the sky. After the flash and the fury fade, people congregate to revisit the scene
    of the spectacle. A live recording is a similar pilgrimage to the source. Proceed, the new c74
    release by the improvising live ensemble Crater, documents two expansive and incendiary sets of
    groove-driven invention and interplay from Crater's central core of jhno (laptop) and Scott
    Amendola (drums, electronics, and percussion) and their companions-guitarists Nels Cline and
    Dave Mac Nab and bassists Devin Hoff and Todd Sickafoose. Their resultant interplay is a rich
    blend of emergent order that Greg Burke of the LA Weekly describes as &#8220;&#8230; certain
    moments from Miles Davis' 70's, adding elements of modern dread and substituting wonder for
    pain. It feels like now&#8230; There are no styles any more, only music.&#8221;</description>

    <description>When it comes to hearing DR.OX, the mysterious self-titled release of cellist
    Tanja Orning and composer Natasha Barrett on C74 Records is a good place to train the
    imagination; it&#8217;s a reference to the one of Jules Verne&#8217;s off-the-beaten-paths
    stories that, once read, stays with you. Unlike the Verne tale, Natasha and Tanja&#8217;s names
    and works will probably be as familiar to anyone who observes music in the new century as
    Captain Nemo or Phileas Fogg. Natasha Barrett&#8217;s extensive and diverse catalog of
    electroacoustic/acousmatic composition and installation work has always been concerned with
    revealing the evocative potential of aural detail. Tanja Orning&#8217;s career as a cellist has
    been about reuniting the long-sundered relationship between the roles of composer and performer
    in a dizzying array of contexts, from the concert hall to work with the rock band Wunderkammer
    and the Christian Wallumrod Ensemble. The Doctor Ox of the Jules Verne tale descends on the
    sleepy and conventional Flemish hamlet of Quiquenone for surreptitious experiments that involve
    using the village gas lamps to distribute a mysterious gas (later revealed to be Oxygen) whose
    effect on the population is decidedly enervating. Tanja and Natasha, in the guise of creating a
    compelling listening experience, also have something else in mind &#8212; using Natasha&#8217;s
    Max/MSP patching to combine the rigor and focus of the compositional process with the immediacy
    and virtuosity of Tanja&#8217;s improvisation. The result is no experiment at all, but an
    elevated listening experience. [source: www.cycling74.com]</description>

    <description>Pity the poor ninja; the noble ninjutsu tradition is a rich combinatorial stew of
    the arts of stealth, information gathering, disguise, and situational/combat skills -- now
    reduced in the popular imagination to people in black jammies and matching ski masks throwing
    sharpened bicycle gears about. John Shirley&#8217;s new c74 release Sonic Ninjutsu carries the
    fight to redeem the tradition directly to the brain, by way of the ears. Armed with a full
    complement of the mysterious MSP tools of his craft, his cadre of autoharps, MIDI guitars,
    pneumonically inflected vocalizations and cleverly disguised traditional instruments slip
    silently into the refined corridors of Electroacoustic power, only to emerge at his command as
    a rambunctious horde of ferociously entertaining musics, possessed of speed, elegance, and
    considerable agility. Ally yourself with this company of sonic ninjas and they will serve you
    well.</description>

    <description>Like the Pompeiian vineyard whose image adorns its cover, Voiceband Jilt reveals
    its patient order and beauty as one moves through it. Gregory&#8217;s respectful recombinant
    homage to the Invalid Object series of recordings curated by Christopher Murphy for the
    F&#228;llt label (which Gregory describes as &#8220;the new century&#8217;s equivalent of Brian
    Eno&#8217;s Obscure Music label&#8221;) captures a recording of Gregory at one with his
    favorite software &#8212; jhno&#8217;s deep and subtle loop-based performance instrument
    radiaL. Voiceband Jilt weaves gentle clicks, earthy rhythms, deep pads and shimmering melodies
    into an engrossingly crafted landscape whose ebb and flow respectfully adorns the contours of
    silence and attention.</description>
