I'm as happy as a guy named Sir Chlorophyll van Beekeeper right now.

Keiji Haino, Jim O’Rourke, & Oren Ambarchi -
This Dazzling, Genuine “Difference” Now Where Shall It Go





+ a new 12-CD box set of Pierre Henry [with ca. a third of it prev. unpublished(!)]

Excited as hell for the new Keiji/O'Rourke/Ambarchi collab but what the hell is up with their titling? It's like they got them from Keiji Haino talking into a dictaphone as he falls asleep.

That's pretty standard Haino titling.

It's the new "exploit the dialogue" trend in new music!
It's been a thing for Japanese artists for a while.

I guess it's harder to notice when it's in Japanese.

Or in French.

Years ago, I took advantage of this and had a little fun
by going the "other" direction - mixing kanji symbols
and translating them into English (instead of Haino-izing
with mispronounced/spelled English). My Japanese friend,
Takashi, thought one of my titles was funny because
"no Japanese would say this - but Haino would like it!"

Oh, yeah, and I'm adding this to tonight's listening as well:

Irreversible Entanglements



from Bandcamp:

"Irreversible Entanglements are a liberation-oriented free jazz collective formed in early 2015 by saxophonist Keir Neuringer, poet Camae Ayewa (a.k.a. Moor Mother) and bassist Luke Stewart, who came together to perform at a Musicians Against Police Brutality event organized after the slaying of Akai Gurley by the NYPD. Months later the group added trumpeter Aquiles Navarro and drummer Tcheser Holmes (a duo who also performed at the MAPB event) for a single day of recording at Seizure’s Palace in Brooklyn, and the full quintet’s first time playing together was captured for this debut. In four relentless bouts of inspired fire music the instrumentalists explore and elaborate compositional ideas drawn from their deep individual studies of free jazz improvisation, but the tone of each piece is driven decisively by Ayewa’s searing poetic narrations of Black trauma, survival and power. The message is the undeniable essence of the music. Though free jazz with voice is an uncommon approach in the modern day landscape of the genre, the spirit and subject the band channels and explores represent a return to a central tenant of the sound as it was founded – to be a vehicle for Black liberation. As creative and adventurous as any recording of contemporary avant-garde jazz but offering listeners no abstractions to hide behind, this is music that both honors and defies tradition, speaking to the present while insisting on the future."

Nice, I had forgotten about Irreversible Entanglements and that they had an official name. I thought that they just came together for a couple of performances.
