Keith Rowe / Sachiko M / Toshimaru Nakamura / Otomo Yoshihide - Erstlive 005  
2004 4-hour concert spanning 3 discs. Rowe created a torn paper design for the printed CD slipcase cover, which in turn tore and packing tape holds the back cover together.
Ebb and flow of reactive and non-reactive sound making, radio grabs, high frequency sine wave whistle, feedback, and controlled turntable mis-use. Time mis-measured.
“One thing I can say for sure is that the boundary between listening to this CD and playing this music is totally dissolved, and there is only a difference of time and space where the sounds are heard.” - Otomo Yoshihide

Thomas Lehn - Feldstarken
Not many in the category, but this is probably the best analog synth solo improv recording ever.

Emerging from the city’s improvised music scene, in the 1990s he became one of the world’s pre-eminent prepared guitar players. Since then his work has expanded to include electroacoustic compositions and live electronic music made with laptop computers and analog modular synthesizers. His early recordings contain mostly sparse, quiet sounds; recent works have been more loud and dense.

..going through the first listen right now. a no-brainer… excellent document of KD improvising with guitar and analog synth. highly recommended non-linear improvised music!
