This release is officially out of print. Copies are still available at the distros but these are the last few physical copies. Downloads are always available.

PM19 - Three Babies - Beresford, Küchen, Solberg
This release has been moving quick these days so I have just single digits left and distros have some as well.

Fred Lonberg-Holm & Stale Liavik Solberg This ad hoc improvising quartet kicks off the latest Chicago visit from young Norwegian percussionist Ståle Liavik Solberg, whom I first encountered when he played with cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm in his wittily titled quartet VC/DC (whose instrumentation is voice, cello, drums, and clarinet). He make...

One more review from Improv.hu magazin on the Mythic Birds release by László Juhász.

Improv.hu » Blog Archive » Mythic Birds – The Name By Which The World Knows Them Ha létezik ilyen, akkor a cd-r kiadók mintapéldája kétségtelenül a chicagói Peira: címenként nem több mint száz példányra limitált professzionális kiszerelésű, klasszikus műanyagtokos lemez, majd ha azok elfogytak, jöhetnek a csökkentett árú mp3/flac virtuális kiadványok. A Mythic Bird bemutatkozó a...

This one slipped under the radar somehow. Some words on the Russel, Lonberg-Holm duo from Hungary!

John Russell | Fred Lonberg-Holm – Home Peira | PM15 | 2012 Home; otthon. A lemez anyagát John Russell brit gitáros észak-kelet londoni otthonában rögzítettek, ám a cím nem csupán a felvétel helyszínére utal. A külső borítón látható vidéki idillt megörökítő fotó Fred ...
