NEW ED PALERMO BIG BAND ALBUM AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER

"It's An Ed Palermo Christmas! God Bless Us, Everyone" is available for pre-order on Bandcamp.

SQUAREPUSHER - HELLO EVERYTHING

• Squarepusher: Hello Everything
      (----, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
      (2006, cd, --, warp records)

Bass player and drum programmer Tom Jenkinson is better known as Squarepusher.
His 2006 "Hello Everything" album is quite different from the "Kammerkonzert" album that I mentioned a couple of days ago.
It sounds like some sort of weird video game soundtrack, but in a good way.

THE RATCHET ORCHESTRA - HALLOWEEN - 2012

      (2020, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
      Incl. ‘Eve’, ‘Big Charles’, ‘Overtones Of China’, ‘El’ (Sun Ra)

MUSIC FROM TIME & SPACE VOL. 60

• Various Artists: Music From Time & Space Vol. 60
      (2016, cd, Germany, eclipsed) – supplement to Eclipsed Rock Magazin

The CD sampler that came with Eclipsed Rock Magazin, issue 03/2016, presented a nice set of songs including Dweezil Zappa's ‘Funky 15’ (from “Via Zammata”) and Lazuli's 'Le Lierre' (from "Nos Mes Saoules").

LUSTMORD LOMBARDO - THE PULSE OF ATOMS

• Lustmord Lombardo: The Pulse Of Atoms
      (2026, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
      (2026, cd)
      (2026, 2lp)

Lustmord Lombardo's debut album, "The Pulse Of Atoms", pairs the dark ambient soundscapes of Brian Williams with the complex percussion of drummer Dave Lombardo.
Distopian and cinematic.

I received the album with the message: "Very dark ambient music. Happy Halloween!".

THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION - FREAK OUT

Next to the "Freak Out" box sets, the album was also re-issued as a 2 LP set on multi-colored vinyl.
As far as I know, only available from the Zappa dot com shop.
It looks pretty neat (& comes with the Freak Out Hot Spots map)
