Fantastic gig by the duo of Eddie Prévost and Silvan Schmid at The Glad Café in Glasgow this afternoon.
Sadly double bassist Tom Wheatley was absent from their usual trio, but the two solo sets followed by a brilliant duo performance were the stuff of the elemental. Schmid’s sharpened breath and saliva cut through the earth-wired heat of Prévost’s mesmerising playing.
So wonderful to hear them both perform in the intimacy of this great venue, where I was lucky enough to snag a seat right at the front.

I see Eddie Prévost, Silvan Schmid & Tom Wheatley are playing in Glasgow on 28 February at the Glad Cafe. Now I know what I'll be doing that afternoon! And the gig is at the very civilised time of 2pm!

Organum – Sphyx (1994, UK)
Our next spotlight is on number 1060 on The List, submitted by @soundclamp.
And, by coincidence, directly following our last spotlight on a 1994 album, here we have another 1994 album! That year was such a sweet spot for music, at least for my tastes, so it’s no surprise that this album of experimental, improvised, dark ambient sounds is amazing. Discogs is adamant that Organum consists of David Jackman and only David Jackman so I gather it’s a sticking point that the “Organum” name is essentially a moniker for Jackman, but this release also features Dinah Jane Rowe (who’s on a number of Organum releases), Jim O’Rourke (who’s on everything, everywhere), Eddie Prévost (of AMM, The Scratch Orchestra, etc.), and Christoph Heemann. And whereas the Organum project apparently is more known for noise firmly in the post-industrial and minimalist drone categories, this album features lovely wind instruments throughout that bring a more romantic element than those two tags would normally be associated with. I can’t find this streaming anywhere other than YouTube and physical copies of both the original and limited 2002 reissue seem to be rather rare, so, note that: (a) the link below is the reissue version that contains 2 additional tracks (originally from a limited 7″ also released in 1994), so stop it around the 35:54 mark if you want to just experience the album as originally intended (but I’m certain you’ll want to hear it all); and (b) at least at the time of writing, Steve Albini’s NM copy of the original pressing is available, here. Also note that, while the definition of “organum” is essentially a liturgical chant, there are no voices (or liturgies) here. There may, however, be sphyxes for all I know, though I’m fairly certain that’s a nonsense word. But, then again, what isn’t.

AMM with Sachiko M - Testing (CD, Matchless, 2025)
A new CD on Matchless of a 20 year old performance (December 2004), from the AMM duo of Eddie Prévost & John Tilbury with Sachiko M on sinewaves.
The piece is full of haunting subtleties of sound from the trio, a winter’s wish of room-enlarging acoustics. Beautiful work that seems to hang in the air, outlasting its conclusion.

I’m revisiting this great CD on Eddie Prévost’s #MatchlessRecordings after last night’s performance. Almost like being in the room with them. Almost.
I’m going to set up a Guppe improvised music group. Apparently, with groups you automatically see all the posts, even if they’re from accounts that haven’t federated to your server before (unlike following hashtags).
Why not give it a follow? Boosts appreciated!

The trio were ably supported by two great sets: the first from Harry Irvine, with a percussive improvisation bordering on the shamanistic; and the second from Bill Thompson (@Prof_lofi - pictured) with a beautiful impromptu set that moved from dense droning passages to a finale of delicate staccato moments.
Sorry that I didn’t manage to get a pic of Harry!

An incredibly powerful gig by the trio of Eddie Prévost, Silvan Schmid & Tom Wheatley tonight at the Old Hairdressers in Glasgow.
Intense, visceral playing, with the fluidity and near-telepathy of collective improvisation fully in evidence: it was a joyful reminder we should try to *be* in the present moment—as the musicians did—without dwelling on the past or the future.

#NowPlaying AMM ‘Tunes Without Measure or End’.
I love AMM’s music, but this album is really special to me because I was at the concert in Glasgow where it was recorded, nearly 25 years ago. I remember sitting on the floor in a large white space in the McLellan Galleries, with the music existing and then not existing in the air around us.
