note: " Zu are an Italian sax-bass-drums trio that consistently push the boundaries of jazz, often by liberally injecting aggressive doses of other musical genres into the mix: noise, electronics, punk, hip-hop, funk and more. On Igneo, the "punk-jazz" descriptor (which is often glibly applied to, say, a good bit of John Zorn's work) is apt, as the trio blaze through nine mostly short, hyperactive, spiky compositions." - ground and sky.

Producer - Gerard Hanson [Convextion]

note: "Second release by Gerard Hanson on Down Low Music, probably a much anticipated one. With its deep and dubby sounds it bears some likelihood with dlVEXT1, but rolls more in a melancholic vein (like Delsin, Arne Weinberg). On the B-side it steps subtly on the electro fields. Again a mesmerising oeuvre by the man from Dallas." - dekalab.

The tracks on this release are inspired by listening to lots of electronic film sound tracks by musicians and bands such as John Carpenter, Goblin, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Brian Eno & Robert Fripp etc.The result is really a soundtrack that represents all these elements and what they mean to the producer."

Classic Detroit techno energetic and uplifting with smooth effective basslines."

note: : "Galaxy 2 Galaxy is a band that was conceptualized with the first hitech Jazz record produced by UR in 1986/87 and later released in 1990 which was "Nation 2 Nation" (UR-005).

Jeff Mills and Mike Banks had visions of Jazz music and musicians operating on the same "man machine" doctrine dropped on them from Kraftwerk. Early experiments with synthesisers and jazz by artists like Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, Weather Report, Return to Forever, Larry Heard and Lenny Whites Astral Pirates also pointed them in this direction.

UR went on to produce and further innovate this form of music which was coined "Hitech Jazz" by fans after the historic 1993 release of UR's "Galaxy 2 Galaxy" (UR-025) album which included the underground UR smash titled "Hitech Jazz".

note: "The second (and all-time best) Mako album, originally issued by Japanese Polydor in 1975; there have been a couple Japanese CD reissues of this in the past, which are no longer available. One of the key documents of Japanese underground psychedelic music, presented in truly sublime fashion. Although MPM went on to record 20+ more records after this one, he would never exceed the spatial exuberance of Super Record. From the liner notes: "Mako's music possesses a certain strange kind of texture. It's certainly is what they call rock, but contains elements that we can't describe so succinctly. It clearly goes beyond the various genres of music, and while full of them all, it sends forth a fierce glow. This 'Super Record' shows Mako looking down upon the earth from above, wandering through Alaska and Siberia, the Near East, Okinawa, and South America. Adding to the variety of folk music of India, Turkey, and Russia, his mandolin or Taisho koto, and especially his marvelously performed guitar, expressing fully the odor of the soil and mankind's universality."

note: ''musique pour 3 femmes enceintes' is most assuredly not an Akufen album; what it most assuredly is, however, is marvelous, a richly textured travelogue of tactile ambient soundscaping. Leclair brings a different though no less accomplished and sophisticated sensibility to this music as he does to his dance-oriented Akufen and Horror Inc. tracks.'
