"shut up and listen!" festival

Thanks to Bernhard Gál, a sound installation utilizing assorted
field recording tracks from the Phonography.org compilation
series will take place in Vienna, Austria as part of the"Shut Up And
Listen!" festival running from December 4th to the 7th.
There will also be a performance by "Phonographie-Ensemble",
whom I imagine will do a similar thing to what the Phonographers
Unions have done here in the US and UK, which will be field recording
improv-mixing. The Phonographie-Ensemble will be comprised of
Bernhard Gál, Heribert Friedl, Murmer (Patrick McGinley),
Lasse-Marc Riek (Gruenrekorder), Daniel Lercher, Peter Kutin,
and Hannes Raffaseder. Some of these artists will also perform
solo sets and apart from and/OAR & Phonography.org, people like
Christopher Delaurenti will have a room reserved for dedicated
listening to his recent controversial release "Favorite Intermissions",
and Derek Holzer & Sara Kolster will have an installation set up for
their on-going internet/live broadcast field recording project called
"SoundTransit".

yui onodera: suisei

I am very happy to announce the release of Yui Onodera's Suisei.
And I am very happy with the great job the manufacturer did
with the packaging as well. This serves as a signal to go ahead with
my plan to issue a slew of shorter edition CD releases limited to
300+ copies, so I am very excited, yes I am!

new subdivisions: either/OAR & mOAR

As some of you may have also noticed on the main page
of the a/O site, that there used to be a link to the website
(still under construction) for the new sublabel called
either/OAR. I have replaced it with a link to the other
new sublabel called mOAR since it seems to have become
more active with several releases already planned for late
2007 and early 2008. Meanwhile, I'm still searching for
the right work to release on e/O, which means that
DEMOS ARE BEING ACCEPTED. Yes, you heard that right!

either/OAR will focus upon pure instrumentation (hopefully
more acoustic than electric) by way of modern minimal
composed or improvised work, soundtracks, installations, etc.
I will also accept electronic work provided that it fits within
the aesthetic I have envisioned for the label. This could take
awhile to find the right kind of work that I am looking for...

And then there is the new genre-melding electronic and
experimental music sub-label of and/OAR called mOAR
