In fact, if you ever think an arbitrarily demarcated 365 days has been a shitty period for releases, you’re not looking hard enough or you’re reading the wrong publications—or you buy all your CDs from supermarkets. Meanwhile, in the real world….

Japanese Legends Marginal Consort Make German Debut

The extended live performances of Japanese avant-garde improv group Marginal Consort are myth-making—and they’re also fairly rare.
