@billorcutt.bsky.social & Mabe Fratti, 'Almost Waking'
Bill in guitar lullaby mode is so cozy to me. And with Mabe's sonorous cello, there's an elegiac quality to this collaboration that nuzzles gently amidst the fuzz and scraggle.

HAPPY release day to the maestro Olaf Rupp, whose truly remarkable solo guitar 2LP "Fuzzy Logic" hits the streets today. Grab it on the Palilalia bandcamp or at your favorite shop.

'What makes this album such a marvel is that each track feels like its own corner of a composite tapestry. The fleeting excellence of tracks like ‘Steps of the Sun’ lends itself to songs which are free to thrive on their own terms.'

The oddest flamenco record you'll likely ever hear ---> free improv don Olaf Rupp's debut for Bill Orcutt's Palilalia imprint is a distorted run through gitano that's crucial listening FFO Derek Bailey, Fred Frith, Haino!
