The tapes date from 2013 to 2017, four years of two men posting sound back and forth. Jóhannsson died in 2018 at forty-eight and the reels went into storage, where they stayed for eight years until his family agreed they could be finished. What Wiltzie did with that permission is the interesting part. The analogue loops are left where they were, exactly as Francesco Donadello captured them on Jóhannsson's Revox more than a decade ago, wobble and tape hiss intact. The additional sessions, recorded between 2023 and 2025, bring in Tim Hecker and the composer Bryan Senti, and several guitar passes were tracked by Steve Albini at Electrical Audio in Chicago, among the last sessions he worked on before his own death. Three strata of time, none of them sanded down to match the others. The opening track is called Ch. 1 (White Gloves & Turtlenecks), a numbering that promises more chapters than anyone can now deliver. 磁帶是 2013 到 2017 年之間錄的,兩個人來回寄了四年。2018 年約翰松走了,四十八歲,這批帶子就停在那裡,一停八年。今年家屬同意,維爾齊才回去把它收尾。

The First Cello Concerto began life as a birthday present: a 2001 commission marking Julian Lloyd Webber's fiftieth. Twenty-five years on, a Belgian cellist has it under her hands, paired with the Second, which Glass assembled from his score for the 2002 film Naqoyqatsi and which Matt Haimovitz premiered in 2012. Thomas recorded the concertos in Brussels with the Brussels Philharmonic under Oscar Jockel in September 2025, then waited four months and reconvened in Berlin's Meistersaal, where nine cellos were put in one room for the ensemble pieces. Handing Glass's repetitions to nine instruments of the same family turns the small discrepancies between players into the texture itself. An hour and forty-two minutes across twenty-two tracks; Symphony for Eight is the way in. 第一號大提琴協奏曲原本是生日禮物:2001 年為 Julian Lloyd Webber 五十歲的委約。第二號則是從 Glass 給 2002 年那部《Naqoyqatsi》寫的配樂裡長出來,2012 年 Matt Haimovitz 首演。

Four passports in one shed. Giddens on minstrel banjo and fiddle, Jason Sypher on bass, the Italian multi-instrumentalist Francesco Turrisi on accordion and percussion, and the Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu, all tracked live at The Cypress House in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, the studio Dirk Powell built himself and where he also produced and mixed. Ten songs, almost no overdubs. Angel Fire Rise opens with the banjo carrying nothing underneath it, Powell's fiddle circling at a polite distance, and the method keeps every small hesitation audible rather than tidying it away. 十首全部現場收音,幾乎沒有疊軌。錄音地點是路易斯安那 Breaux Bridge 的 The Cypress House,Dirk Powell 自己搭的棚,他同時當共同製作與錄混。

Third album, and the first time the band has let anyone but their own guitarist Henry Stoehr run the desk. Elliott Kozel has Rosalía, SZA and Lizzo on his CV, but the four of them know him from adolescence in Madison, where his band Sleeping in the Aviary was the local article of faith. Hiring your teenage heroes to supervise you is a risk that mostly pays here: Better Man opens on a slapped string and walks straight into the thickest guitar on the record, and the songs, written back home, keep their small-town scale. 第三張,也是他們第一次讓自家吉他手以外的人坐進控制檯。共同製作是 Elliott Kozel,威斯康辛人,履歷上有 Rosalía、SZA、Lizzo,但四個團員認識他的理由要早得多:少年時在麥迪遜聽的那支 Sleeping in the Aviary 就是他的團。

Piau built this as the lower half of a diptych begun by Voyage intime in 2023, and the twenty-nine tracks make room for four women whose songs rarely reach a studio: Jeanne Bernard, whose Trois chansons de Bilitis appear here, along with Wally Karnevo, Louise Didier and Ilse Weber. They are interleaved with Hahn, Debussy, Ravel, Wolf, Strauss, Zemlinsky, Poulenc and Shostakovich rather than quarantined in a themed section. Kadouch says plainly on the label page that these tales were never meant for children, and several of them are frankly unsettling. Ophélie Gaillard guests on cello. 二十九軌的曲目表裡排進了四位很少被灌錄的女作曲家:Jeanne Bernard 的《Trois chansons de Bilitis》、Wally Karnevo、Louise Didier,以及 Ilse Weber。她們與 Hahn、Debussy、Ravel、Wolf、Strauss、Zemlinsky、Poulenc、Shostakovich 並排站著,沒有另闢專題,就這樣混編。

Every one of the eight titles gives the Truku first and the Mandarin second, and the ordering carries the argument without anyone having to state it. The subjects are domestic to the point of comedy: Embuwa ka dara Babuy, about the bubbles on a sacrificial pig; Iya siling piya hnjilan, which asks you not to enquire about her weight; Sinaw ga a sbrigan, the rice wine at the corner shop. Catalogue number TRKLW01, the first in a series the label numbered after the language itself. 八首曲名全是太魯閣語在前、漢語在後。這個排序不是裝飾:「Embuwa ka dara Babuy 神豬泡泡」「Iya siling piya hnjilan 不要問我幾公斤」「Sinaw ga a sbrigan 雜貨店的米酒」「Kumay mu 熊寶貝」——題目本身已經把場景設在部落的雜貨店門口,體重、米酒、神豬,全是會被隔壁鄰居拿來開玩笑的東西。

A late catch from September 4. Cut in June at Oslo's Rainbow Studios, the room Jan Erik Kongshaug built, with Martin Abrahamsen mixing and mastering. The guest list reads as a roll-call of Norwegian jazz: Nguyên Lê, Bendik Hofseth, Jacob Young, Audun Erlien. Ten tracks, close to an hour. I need another pass before I decide whether the meeting settles. 補本月初的漏。今年六月整隊進奧斯陸 Rainbow Studios 錄成,就是 Kongshaug 建的那一間,混音與母帶交給 Martin Abrahamsen。
