Gordon Monahan – Piano Mechanics / Speaker Swinging
C3R 007

Released September 6th, 2005
$18.00 CAD

This release is the first of three discs that C3R is slated to release by Gordon Monahan, and represents his first release in fourteen years. This CD is a re-release of two of Monahan's best-known early works: 'Piano Mechanics' (which won first prize at the 1984 CBC Young Composers Competition), and 'Speaker Swinging' (his universally acclaimed, manually-operated sound installation). Both of these remastered pieces are awe-inspiring sound experimentations, possessing a visceral quality that is often lacking in more straight-forward tonal experiments. These are beautiful and moving pieces of new music.

This disc is a three-panel digipak. The next two scheduled C3R Monahan releases will also be packaged in digipak, with all design done by Denny Martin (and his wife).

Piano Mechanics:

1. Voices Emerging Along High Tension Wires 4:21
2. Abrupt Stops 4:15
3. Solitary Waves 1 1:08
4. Solitary Waves 2 9:22
5. Trill With Hand Controlled Pitch Release 2:26
6. Solitary Waves 3 1:15
7. Melody Concealed by a Tremolo High Trills Becoming Difference Tones 4:16
8. Fingers and Arms Becoming Four Hands 4:31

10. Speaker Swinging (Part 2) 10:13
11. Speaker Swinging Remix 10:48

 

Tsurubami – Shohjohkisshohtan
C3R 005

Released March 03, 2005
$15.00 CAD

C3R is proud to release the new album by one of the most comely members of the
Acid Mothers Temple extended family of projects.

For years now, Tsurubami has been producing some of the most colourful cosmic
improv ever heard by anyone anywhere (and we are sure of this, because we know
exactly what any given person is listening to at any given time, thanks to the
'C3R Omniscience Mechanism', or 'C3ROM').

This album is no exception to Tsurubami's intensely spiritual improv tradition --
it contains three tracks of swirling psych, featuring Kawabata Makoto's trademark
guitar, the pounding rhythms of Emi Nobuko, and Higashi Hiroshi's combined synth
and bass talents. With this album, these three formidable musicians have come
one step closer to answering the question that drives the band: 'through the
holy sound of Ohm, can we glimpse the eternal, escape the constraints of time
(past, present, and future), and come to meet the Buddha?'


1. Kandeki no hate ni - 16:31
2. Kimi o omoite - 17:29
3. Shohjohkisshohtan - 22.46


Maja S.K. Ratkje / Lasse Marhaug – Music for Faking
C3R 004

Released January 10, 2005
$16.00 CAD

From the team that brought you 'Music for Shopping' and 'Music for Loving' comes
an aural experience so shocking that you'll need to hear it again and again and again.

Marvel at the amount of noise that they can make! Speculate on why the clown is so
sad! Get out your noise bible and sing a psalm for ultra-woman! It's all here, in
one colourful package.

Maja S.K. Ratkje & Lasse Marhaug: 'Music for Faking' - Get one! All the cool
kids are doing it. You want to be cool, don't you? Of course you do.


1. nihilist ace blues for time travel 7:46
2. pop up in strange beds with a smile 8:08
3. as real as it gets: a psalm for ultra-woman 6:27
4. how much noise can we make? (let's find out) 5:04
5. the sad clown called the law 4:20
6. announcement to all the graceful sailors 1:40
7. music for faking 12:32

Merzbow – Yoshinotsune
C3R 003

may 14, `04

A great release. Wildly rhythmic, the album consists of three brilliant tracks,
by turns soothing and unsettling. 'Ushikawa Kurama Iri' builds cinematically
around a 25 minute loop of tribal, ritualistic drumming. Track two, 'Hachiman Taro
No Uta' features the distinctive acoustic guitar stylings of Mr. Akita, while the
album closer 'Yoshino No Yamazakura' is constructed almost entirely of granular
synthesis...

Yoshinotsune is quite possibly the most unique offering of laptop-era Merzbow;
distinctive, but certain not to disappoint.

limited edition of 500 cds


1. Ushikawa Kurama Iri 25:32
2. Hachiman Taro No Uta 15:39
3. Yoshino No Yamazakura 11:42


Merzbow – Fantail

Fantastic album, reminiscent of 'Merzzow' or 'Puroland'.
Pride of place is given to 'Live Peace in Toronto', a
27-minute live track taken from a concert in
(surprise) Toronto, September, 2002.

 I Clouds 7:06
II Catapillar 2002 10:32
III Mountain 3:33
IV Waterfall 4:22
V Door 7:33
VI 'Live Peace in Toronto' (Door, Barbarian and Bigfoot) 27:07
