The indefatigable Martin Archer has
announced the two newest releases from his record label, Discus Music
as well as a gig later in the month.
Readers of this blog will remember that
we recently published an article about a crowdfunding campaign Discus
will running to support the Keith Tippett Octet's new album. Well,
the campaign was a success and the Nine Dances of Patrick O'Gonogon
will be the 56th release on the label. This can be
listened to and ordered on the website.
Following that, release 57 will be an
ambitious double album from a new project, Story Tellers. With Martin
himself on woodwinds and joined by Anton Hunter, Corey Mwamba, Pete
Fairclough, Kim Macari and Mick Somerset Ward, Story Tellers will be
released in July. A group of strong improvising voices coming
together to form something huge...
And if you'd like to hear music like
this live, Martin is putting on a gig on June 24th at
Bishop's House in Sheffield featuring two sets of music. DAS RAD is a
trio of musicians from the Discus Music roster performing together
for the first time – Martin on saxophone & electronics, Nick
Robinson on guitar and electronics and Steve Dinsdale on drums and
electronics. They are joined by Jez Creek aka Modulator ESP who will
perform a solo set.
Information on all of this and more can
be found on the Discus Music website. (www.discus-music.co.uk)
