Artist:	BELHOM, THOMAS
Title:	Cheval Oblique
Label:	APPARENT EXTENT (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	AE 002CD

This is French percussionist Thomas Belhom's fifth instrumental album. Cheval Oblique features classic, melodic and fluent pieces. Electroacoustic composites are based on sparkling drum tracks, ambient loops and poetic melodies, and almost every track is a live track. Belhom is a one-man orchestra-concrete. Pop-ambient, Kraut, gamelan, elektronisches and field recordings are all intuitively composed around the drum stool. Think '70s Sun Ra, Pierre Henry, Jack De Johnette, plus '90s Wechsel Garland.

Artist:	PAPER HATS, THE
Title:	Deseret Canyon
Label:	APPARENT EXTENT (GERMANY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$22.00
Catalog #:	AE 005LP

"The Paper Hats is William Tyler from Nashville, Tennesee. You have seen and heard him play guitar with Lambchop, Silver Jews or -- if you are lucky -- with The Spiritual Family Reunion. Deseret Canyon is a psychedelic record and psychedelic is when one drops the google and let the music do its thing and moves in time to imaginary spaces. And since its meant to appear in vinyl this move has two opposite spiral tracks. Flip it, screengazer. Deseret Canyon is finger picking folk. Tuning secrets and mesmerist magic. Country soul on a carrousel. Magnetic front porch symphonies with a drone. The Apalachian meets Raga meets Vienna classic meets Hawaiian slack. The Fahey thing, the Loren Mazzacane Conners thing, the Ribot thing, the Jansch thing, the O'Rourke ding, the Datashock dthing. Ding music that makes you concern, consider, regard, and bear in mind, also waltz sleepy in serpentines with your augur self."

Artist:	BILLING, JOHANNA
Title:	This Is How We Walk On The Moon OST
Label:	APPARENT EXTENT (GERMANY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$30.00
Catalog #:	AE 006LP

"The 25 minutes long film This Is How We Walk on the Moon was shot in Edinburgh and first screened at last year's Documenta 12 in Kassel, Germany. As with most of Billings's movies, we witness a group of young people in the process of learning how to sail a boat. The group are silent learners. Operating a boat needs concentration. Only the voice of the Scottish instructor breaks the silence. The film oscillates, like many of Johanna's movies, between performance documentary and music video. The title and main musical theme for the film is taken from a song by Arthur Russell on his posthumous album Another Thought. In the movie the Russell song is the main theme changing from background to the main title song. The soundtrack is the second release of Johanna Billings Original Film Soundtracks on apparent extent. The record features the full-length soundtrack with original noises, voices and background music as well as bonus material and outtakes including a radio edit of the title song. With the record comes a poster-size interview between artist and Malmö Konsthall director Jacob Fabricius about Johanna Billings relation towards music, making records in relation to her art and film work." Limited edition of 500 copies.
