Artist:	GAMELAN SON OF LION
Title:	The Complete Gamelan in the New World
Label:	LOCUST
Format:	2CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	LOCUST 041/42CD

"This is the first proper re-release of two legendary recordings by the innovative Gamelan Son of Lion. This New York performance group has counted as its founding members Fluxus pioneer Phillip Corner, electronics composer Daniel Goode (Tzadik), and core member Barbara Benary. Equally inspired by the resonant decaying sounds of New York school composers like Morton Feldman, the stunning pacific gamelan music of its namesake & the wild antics of Fluxus, their sound is trancelike and beautifully inspiring collection. Brought back into print for the first time in over 20 years, this fully remastered features new liner notes by Author Marcus Boon."

Title:	Metal Notes
Label:	LOCUST
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	LOCUST 078CD

"Metal Notes resuscitates a long-lost, decades-old cassette-only release by the great New York collective Gamelan Son of Lion and brings to the fore the incredible metallic drones of a group whose innovative minimal music has rightfully earned them a place among the likes of La Monte Young, Tony Conrad, Steve Reich & Charlemagne Palestine -- to name a few. At almost 80 minutes, this collection of eight songs is nothing if not totally spellbinding & hypnotic. Features founding members Barbara Benary (early collab w/ Philip Glass), Fluxus pioneer Philip Corner, David Demnitz, Daniel Goode, Peter Griggs, Michael Byron, and half a dozen other composer/performers."
