December 31, 2024‘Memory’ featuring Toshinori Kondo 近藤等則
December 18, 2024This is an unreleased live improvisation by Toshinori Kondo 近藤等則 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toshinori_Kondo) in collaboration with Andrew Lagowski. There was to be an album of Kondo-san’s work with various artists, which was sadly never released as Kondo-san passed away in October 2020. RIP Kondo-san.
I sent him several tracks and he sent back three mixes in September 2020 with his excellent trumpet playing overdubbed onto them.
This is ‘Memory’ (my version without trumpet is released on https://lagowski.bandcamp.com/album/smokescreen)
Thanks to Arun Natarajan for the introduction and mediation and to Yukari for the post-intro communications.
Visualisations made with Ferromagnetic.

Nagamatzu’s first gig – October 2nd 1982
October 2, 2024Stephen is hard at work, transferring old recordings of Nagamatzu from minidisc (sourced from original cassettes). You can find them at their Bandcamp page but I wanted to highlight this one in particular, which is the first time we played live. We used the Ferrograph Logic 7 reel to reel recorder for backing tracks, with various guitars and Dave Campbell’s jet flanger (thanks Dave!).
Jo Farrell did a reading of a short text written by me after the first track (thanks Jo!).
Here it is, in all its glory
