about

“It is the changeable aspect of the group that attracts its members. In varying the framework of ensemble size, mixture of acoustic and electronic instrumentation, and various pairings and contrasts of instruments and musicians, Wastell sets up active playing environments that both challenge the members to consider how to engage, while encouraging them to bear in mind the overall group sound. He acts more as instigator than leader, providing the simplest of instructions such as a sub-grouping to begin the piece or what order musicians are to enter and places full trust in the ensemble from there.” (Michael Rosenstein)

Drop me off at 96th

This might be my favorite album of his. Track 2 Listening to JR is some beautiful emotional music. It brought me to tears my first listen. liclon

from ten, two and three +improvisation
by Cranc [Angharad Davies, Nikos Veliotis, Rhodri Davies] and Derek Bailey

supported by 13 fans who also own “Edition 26 : Live”

The improvisations are a hedgerow teeming with life. Cranc's take on Burn's transcriptions are fantastic revealing all kinds of angles on Bailey's musical mind - well worth comparison with Philip Thomas's takes (have to hear Pat Thomas's versions now!). stchase
