First International Coin Designer Training program held in Shanghai

2018 International Coin Designer Training at Shanghai Mint participants

By Louis Golino

In early December the Chinese Mint held the first International Coin Designer Training program at its Shanghai branch mint, which brought together several prominent coin designers from Europe, the U.S., and China. These experienced coin designers and medallic artists shared their wealth of experience with artists and designers from China during several days of presentations and workshops.

Joel Iskowitz, a former member of the U.S. Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program and prolific American narrative artist who has designed countless coins, stamps, and medals for many countries and private mints, was the U.S. participant in the program who was asked to teach and give lectures on the key concepts and techniques involved in designing coins and medals.

Joel was invited to be one of the program instructors by Ms. Tina Deng of the Shanghai Mint. He is no stranger to China, having previously been there 25 years ago on a U.S. Air Force Art Program assignment.

Luo Yonghui and Joel Iskowitz reconnecting nine years after their work on the Journey for Peace medal during the presentation by Joel. Hover to zoom.

In addition, nine years ago, at the invitation of prominent numismatist Mel Wacks, he worked with a team of Chinese medallic artists and designers led by Yonghui Luo to design the “Journey for Peace” medal issued by the Chinese Mint for the 40th anniversary of former President Richard Nixon’s historic visit to China in 1972.

Obverse side of Chinese medal for 40th anniversary of Nixon’s visit to China.

Only 400 of these high-relief, bronze two-medal sets were struck by the MedalCraft Mint in Greenbay, Wisconsin for the Art Medal Communication center in Shanghai. The medal consists of two halves that each weigh over 10 ounces and fit together. The obverse of one medal features an image of President Nixon and smaller images of doves and of the U.S. president in China, while the other obverse features Chairman Mao of China and smaller images of him with Henry Kissinger and more doves.

Reverse side of Chinese medal for 40th anniversary of Nixon’s visit to China.

Each reverse features a yin-yang design of an American flying eagle and a Chinese dragon.

During the recent training program, Joel was able to reunite with Mr. Yonghui and said he was “embraced as a family member of the artistic community and by those I met in commerce and government.”

Reflecting on the recent program, Joel said:

I have always believed that art is a universal language which transcends cultural and physical barriers and even time itself. As a designer of coins and medals, I have witnessed their powerful role as ambassadors of good will which connect humankind in marvelous ways. Envoys of our collective human story, they are miniature in physical size yet epic in content. Coins and medals are the nexus of history, art, and beauty.

He added:

It is my hope and belief that this first successful International Coin Designer Training inaugurates and inspires a new frontier of dedicated collaboration, a golden era of beautiful coins and medals that combine the best of our cultures and talents to add to the beauty and harmony of our world.

Interview

Erkki Vainio and Joel Iskowitz present winning design teams with their medals of excellence.

Joel provided additional insights on his experience with this program in an interview with Coin Update, which sheds light on the state of medallic art in China and collaboration between Chinese designers and those from other countries.

Louis Golino: When did the training program occur and how long did it last?

Joel Iskowitz: The 2018 International Coin Designer Training began 12/5/18 and lasted three days through 12/7/18.

LG: Was the main purpose of the program increasing collaboration between Chinese coin designers and those from other countries? Did it have other goals?

JI: Yes, in general this initiative was intended to educate, engender mutual understanding and respect, enhance communications, and possible future collaboration between the East and the West. The emphasis was certainly international as suggested in the title of the event.

This approach to share knowledge and inspiration for design excellence across cultural and national borders was realized by inviting presentations by artists/designers, such as the brilliant Erkki Vainio of Finland, worldwide tool and die expert Torbjørn Hansen of the Norwegian Mint, and myself. The great Chinese master sculptor Yonghui Luo and rising star, Zhu Xiuai, also had important input in every phase of the program. Many of China’s finest coin and medal designers were selected from a competition to participate as well.

I would add that besides the actual colloquy concerning design principles, procedures, and techniques, an additional — but extremely tangible benefit — was the goodwill and camaraderie established among all the artists/designers and the Mint officials who participated.

China is in the midst of a celebration of a 40-year-period of openness. Since 1978 this new era of prosperity and great transition in Chinese culture and art has robustly welcomed ideas and advances of Western nations. The timing of this event could not have been more perfect as China’s successful economic, cultural, and artistic renaissance ushers in a new world order that warmly welcomes active participation by Western civilization.

For myself personally, as someone who believes that art has no borders and considering the general direction my career as an artist has been taking, with more international commissions, this could not have been a more-timely event to be invited to participate in.

LG: Were the Chinese artists and coin designers employees of the Chinese Mint?

JI: Yes, both Zhu Xiuai and Yonghui Luo are employees of the Shanghai Mint, Mr. Yonghui being the senior designer/sculptor, similar to the position of chief engraver. Many other accomplished Chinese artists participated. My understanding was that some have a contractual relationship with the Shanghai Mint and some were independent artists.

LG: Please describe some of the programs you participated in and what activities took place during those programs.

JI: There were three main presentations, mine being the first on 12/5, Erkki Vainio’s being the second on 12/6, and Torbjørn Hansen’s on 12/7. However, I left Shanghai early that Friday morning and did not attend the last day of the training.

Additional workshops included presentations of artists/designers’ work which were reviewed, critiqued, and judged in a competition. The five principals mentioned earlier forming the panel of judges. Topics covered included:

Effectiveness and accuracy of background research

Understanding and conveying the cultural context of the design

Successful exploration of new techniques and approaches;

Inter-relationship with coinability of design regarding tooling, striking, etc.

A full day devoted to technical aspects, such as levels of relief, special coin shapes, surface treatments;( laser, color applications, plating, etc.)

A hands-on workshop in which teams of designers were tasked with creating packaging materials that organically and thematically relate to and enhance the particular coin or medal. This was ultimately formatted as a contest with the best teams earning medals of merit and the winning design team earning the auspicious gold medal for design excellence.

LG: Are there any particular artistic styles or techniques that you would associate with Chinese coin designers other than the use of symbols and imagery from Chinese culture?

JI: My overall take away from being exposed to the wide array of designs from the Chinese participants was a sense that no matter how enthusiastically they embrace Western influences and modern approaches both aesthetically and technically, they have a natural and inborn respect for their rich and ancient cultural artistic heritage. They do not abandon this lineage in favor of blind rush to be “modern.” They realize that there is a precious connection to the art of the past, and that art really is timeless and retains its relevance if it is created without the artificial and superficial need to appear contemporary.

On a more pedestrian note, I believe that because of a long history of visually interpreting the world through a lens that embraces a circular, mandalic view of the universe (think Yin-Yang) these artists seem to have a very fluid and naturally elegant sensibility when designing in the round. Also considering the fact that their written form of communication is a type of animated calligraphy or pictograph, these artists have a superb ability to effectively combine inscriptions with figurative imagery.

All in all, although, I was honored to present as an authority in design, I came away from this event awed by the richness and pure artistry of the participants. Most impressive to me was the depth, character, and beauty of the younger designers’ creations.

2018 International Coin Designer Training instructors Zhu Xiuai, Erkki Vainio, Joel Iskowitz (with glasses), and Chinese coin designers.

LG: Were you, Erkki Vainio, and Zhu Xiuai the main instructors and the ones who led the discussions and presentations?

JI: As I mentioned above, myself, Erkki Vainio, and Torbjørn Hansen made the formal presentations, but Mr.Yonghui and Zhu Xiuai played a very active and important role in the training. Their comments were very informative and as is evidenced in the Chinese world of arts and letters, quite poetic. Listening to some of the comments, especially those of Yonghui Luo, I thought of some of the grand statements of Andre Malraux, who spoke of a sisterhood and brotherhood of artists that speak to each other, unbounded by the constraints of time or national and cultural boundaries.

Beyond her unmistakable gift of the gab, Shane is a pioneer of transgender rights, born in a male body but unabashedly living her entire life as a woman at a time when to do so seemed unthinkable. Any Other Way is the first artist-approved collection of Ms. Shane's work, collecting all six of her 45s and every highlight from the legendary 1967 live sessions at the Sapphire Tavern, including three mind blowing, previously-unreleased tracks. Rob Bowman's 20,000 word essay is Jackie's first communication with the public in nearly half a century, telling for the first time ever Jackie Shane's story in her own words.

Limited Numbered Edition of only 300 copies "THE ORBIT MAGAZINE ANTHOLOGY" 256 Page Book $35.00 die ANGEL: Entropien l LP $23.99Ilpo Väisänen (Pan Sonic) and Dirk Dresselhaus (Schneider TM) retitle themselves Die Angel for Entropien 1, their eighth LP of electro-acoustic music together, and the duo's debut for Shapednoise's Cosmo Rhythmic label. Accompanied by skilled improviser Oren Ambarchi on two tracks, Die Angel model a complex physicality through raw, elemental inputs, exploring a flux of reactive feedback processes and mutating, unstructured sonic states generated from crackling fusions of electronics, drums, electric guitar, and field recordings warped and riddled with FX. Taking its title from both the Finnish word and German plural for entropy -- in physics, the measure of thermodynamic disorder within a system -- Entropien 1 renders seven examples of their kinetic systems in elusive action, keening from arrhythmic mulch to sloshing Brownian motions and a brilliantly towering 15-minute exploration that tips into billowing, white hot feedback with scintillating effect. The amorphous results document and describe a freeness of energy travelling from body to machine and diffused across alternating acoustic environments. Each player works as controlled, external variables which act upon and interact with the different acoustic conditions to tempestuous impact, convulsing between squashed, recursive diffractions in "Roha", to the sublimated roil of jazz drums and electric guitar wail in "Terminen Kevät", before harnessing sloshing feedback chaos in the combustible, diaphanous two parts of "Entropia" -- both "North" and "South" -- which bring the LP to its logical, compelling conclusion. With the addition of Wold or KTL-like metal emulsification and lacquer-bubbling grain in "Kitka", and Ambarchi's plasmic overdubbing in the burning plasmic plong of "Silvaticum", the overall impression is like auditive DMT, dissolving the senses and the ego -- simultaneously theirs and the listeners -- to better snag the listener in the music's metastable potential and aid our unanchored exploration in those dimensions. Entropien 1 is dedicated to Mika Vainio. RIYL: Pan Sonic, Mika Vainio, KTL. Mastered and cut by Matt Colton at Alchemy. Sun Ra: Discipline 27-II CD $16.99Corbett Vs. Dempsey present a reissue of Sun Ra Discipline 27-II, originally released on El Saturn Records in 1973. Arguably the last great original-era Saturn LP to be reissued on CD, Discipline 27-II has long deserved to be more familiar to Sun Ra fans and layfolk alike. Recorded during the same sessions in 1972 at Chicago's Streeterville Studios that produced Ra's most popular and best-known record, Space Is The Place (1973), it's got much the same vibe, from the 24-minute four-part suite of the title track -- an important conducted piece that Ra performed frequently in these years -- to the opening cut, "Pan Afro", with John Gilmore's sensational tenor work. Sporting a percussion-rich 18-piece Arkestra, the music can be thick, voluble, and dense or it can winnow down to a small group, as on the delightful track "Neptune", a vehicle for June Tyson's singing and the site of the indelible Sun Ra space chant: "Have you heard the latest news from Neptune, Neptune, Neptune?" This marks the first time Discipline 27-II has been reissued on CD. It has been remastered from the original tapes, includes a never published period photo of Ra by Charles Shabacon, and ends with an explosive bonus track from the same session, showing quite a different side of the same ensemble. Personnel: Sun Ra - electronic keyboard space age instruments, Moog synthesizer, vocals; John Gilmore - tenor saxophone, percussion, vocals; Marshall Allen - alto saxophone, flute; Danny Davis - alto saxophone, flute; Pat Patrick - baritone saxophone, bass; Danny Thompson - baritone saxophone, flute; Eloe Omoe - bass clarinet, flute; Akh Tal Ebah - trumpet, flugelhorn, vocals; Lamont Kwamie McClamb - trumpet, percussion; Russell Branch - percussion, congas; Stanley Morgan - percussion, congas; with Alzo Wright, Harry Richards, Lex Humphries, Robert Underwood on drums and vocals by June Tyson, Cheryl Banks, Judith Holton, and Ruth Wright. Cover art by LeRoy Butler; cover design by Alton Abraham. Recorded by Ed Michel at Streeterville Studios, Chicago, October, 1972; LP produced by Alton Abraham for Infinity Inc. Chadbourne, Eugene: Lost Eddie Chatterbox Session CD $16.99Corbett Vs. Dempsey present The Lost Eddie Chatterbox Session, a reissue of Eugene Chadbourne's album, first released as a cassette on No Prestige Records in 1988. Dateline: Christmas Day, 1977, San Francisco. On an ailing quarter-track tape deck, in a marathon session, Eugene Chadbourne recorded a series of slide guitar solos playing compositions by the likes of Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and Ornette Coleman, along with a few standards and originals. Although the recording quality was imperfect, the playing was absolute genius -- enough so that Chadbourne was eventually convinced, a decade later, to issue it as a cassette tape, which he sold at concerts. Long pre-dating the slash-and-burn-and-reinvent approach to jazz songbooks now familiar from groups like News From Lulu, Chadbourne leapt into each short track with giddy abandon, introducing the piece with a nerdy credit line, then ripping and tearing at it adoringly, his improvisations forcing a new view of the familiar melodies. Anyone familiar with Chadbourne's wonderful duets with Frank Lowe on Don't Punk Out! (1979), waxed in the same period, has a general sense of his modus, but the complete commitment he gave to the project on The Lost Eddie Chatterbox Session makes it a special and wholly unique item in the manic master's chronicles. On this special CD reissue, the tracks have been tenderly but respectfully restored, eliminating some of the most distracting audio flaws but leaving the inconceivable artistry intact. Four unreleased tracks have been added to the jam-packed program, as well as the original cover photo and Chadbourne's unreadable track listing, which is carefully reproduced on the interior. Recorded December 25, 1977, in San Francisco John Zorn and Eugene Chadbourne: 77-81 LP+BK $44.99Song Cycle Records present a reissue of 1977-1981, a collection of rare free-jazz pieces performed by John Zorn and selected by the American guitarist and music critic Eugene Chadbourne originally released in 1998. Originally released to accompany the book release of Sonora: John Zorn (Materiali Sonori), the album is presented here for the first time in an exclusive release in limited edition on vinyl. This special issue includes the original book that features exclusive interviews, essays, and photos about the artist's entire oeuvre up to 1988.

Caretaker: Everywhere At The End Of Time 1-3 3CD set $29.99The first three stages in a series of six albums by The Caretaker, compiled here on a deluxe three CD collector's edition. Each album reveals new points of progression, loss and disintegration, progressively falling further and further towards the abyss of complete memory loss and nothingness... Embarking on the Caretaker's final journey with the familiar vernacular of abraded shellac 78s and their ghostly waltzes to emulate the entropic effect of a mind becoming detached from everyone else's sense of reality and coming to terms with their own, altered, and ever more elusive sense of ontology. The series aims to enlighten our understanding of dementia by breaking it down into a series of stages that provide a haunting guide to its progression, deterioration, and disintegration, and the way that people experience it according to a range of impending factors. In other words, Everywhere At The End Of Time probes some of the most important questions about modern music's place in a world that's increasingly haunted or even choked by the tightening noose of feedback loops of influence; perceptibly questioning the value of old memories as opposed to the creation of new ones, and, likewise the fidelity of those musical memories which remain, and whether we can properly recollect them from the mire of our faulty memory banks without the luxury of choice. It's highly encouraged that you join The Caretaker on this, his final journey through the endless haunted ballrooms and mazy corridors of his wasting mind... Features new and exclusive artwork by Ivan Seal on each panel -- made especially for this series. Housed in a deluxe eight-panel, triple digifile. Mastered and cut by Lupo. Fret: Over Depth 2LP $28.99 Mick Harris (Scorn, Quoit, Painkiller) returns after several years of hiatus with ten tracks of blasting landmine bass and interlocking shrapnel rhythms. Derek Szeto on the album: "... For someone with decades of releases over various solo projects, collaborations and pseudonyms, whether it's doing blast beats in the original Napalm Death to crushing techno brutality as Monrella, or savage drum & bass as Quoit. Then of course there's the mighty Scorn and his numerous collaborations with fellow luminaries such as John Zorn and Bill Laswell (in Painkiller). Rather than being tied to genres or scenes, Mick Harris is one of those producers who creates a whole sonic world uniquely of his own . . . Needless to say his work has influenced legions of producers like Surgeon, Regis, Ontal, Vatican Shadow/Prurient, Fausten, Shapednoise et al. . . . And yet after all this time, it is impressive that Harris still stands way above his successors and has never been surpassed in his own production/performance game. After a hiatus of several years, he is back with a new album under the guise of Fret. Working at a faster tempo than his Scorn material, the Fret project first surfaced years ago on the Downwards label, rooting it firmly in the dark, industrial and technoid world, and appeared more recently on Tresor (Kern mix by Objekt), maintaining the characteristic colossal bass-heaviness and textural depth. And now a full album on Karlrecords, Berlin. Harris fans will be delighted to know that despite the 130 bpm tempo, the newest Fret still resolutely avoids any straight four-on-the-floor kick drums; every track lurches, stumbles, staggers and charges forth with beats in beautifully broken asymmetry. We get ten tracks of crushing, percussive destroyers, each itself a storm of precision chaos, with colossal low-end frequencies that'll cause stampedes in the right circumstances. The classic Harris sound is there; searing waves of feedback distortion, intricate, interlocking rhythms and cold, abattoir atmospheres . . . The lazy-minded would probably lump it in with the term 'techno', but the disciplined brutality, blasting landmine bass and interlocking shrapnel rhythms are clearly Harris's own trademark style, sitting somewhere between Scorn and Quoit. The tracks appear deceptively chaotic on the surface, yet each is meticulously and masterfully composed with great attention to layering and detail." 180 gram vinyl; Includes download code. Outro Tempo: Electronic And Contemporary Music From Brazil, 1978-1992 double cd $22.99Double CD release of the outstanding compilation, Outro Tempo: Electronic And Contemporary Music From Brazil, 1978-1992. Contains three tracks not included on the double LP version (MFM 016LP). For their first multi-artist compilation, Music From Memory take a trip to the heart of the Amazon rainforest. Outro Tempo: Electronic And Contemporary Music From Brazil, 1978-1992 explores the outer reaches of Brazilian music, where indigenous rhythms mix with synthesizers and where MPB mingles with drum computers. As Brazil faced the last years of its military dictatorship and transition to democracy, a generation of forward-thinking musicians developed an alternative vision of Brazilian music and culture. They embraced traditionally shunned electronic production methods and infused their music with elements of ambient, jazz-fusion, and minimalism. At the same time they referenced the musical forms and spirituality of indigenous tribes from the Amazon. The music they produced was a complex and mesmerizing tapestry that vividly evoked Brazilian landscapes and simultaneously reached out to the world beyond its borders. Features: Piry Reis, Nando Carneiro, Cinema, João De Bruçó & R. H. Jackson, Os Mulheres Negras, Fernando Falcão, Anno Luz, Andréa Daltro, Bené Fonteles, Maria Rita, Carlinhos Santos, Bené Fonteles, Priscilla Ermel, Carioca, Marco Bosco, and Luhli E Lucina. Greiner, Svarte: Knive LP $23.99Miasmah present a reissue of Svarte Greiner's debut album Knive, originally released on Type in 2006. 11 years since its inception, the surreal and darkly romantic Knive still sounds like a mystery and something that's hard to pin down. Svarte Greiner's debut album feels like a trip into the forest at midnight, with all the sounds and impressions that comes with it. Spiritual, horrific, and fragile in essence, its melancholic core is hard to shake off, and feels as present today as it did back then. While starting off the sub-genre of "acoustic doom" back in 2006, it's difficult to say what else to name it now, with its inspiration and elements from countless genres. The record flows through the dissonant cellos and washed-out vocals of "Ocean Out Of Wood" past the introverted church organs of "The Black Dress", distorted guitars and wooden beats of "The Dining Table" to the operatic finale of "Final Sleep". Everything is scattered, with field recordings from crows, branches, walking, sleeping, rain, wind, and who-knows-what. Knive stands on many feet, wherever they may be. Erik K Skodvin's path as Svarte Greiner have since been dwelling more and more into this world, picking each element apart to focus on them, stretching them out or cutting them down, looping, experimenting, and flooding with reverb -- trying to make time stop and night fall. But for now a re-visit to where it all started seems appropriate. Includes download code; Full-tone color artwork; Edition of 500. Partch, Harry: And On The Seventh Day Petals Fell In Petaluma lp $26.99Performed by The Gate 5 Ensemble: Harry Partch (director), Danlee Mitchell, Harry Partch, Michael Ranta, Emil Richards, Wallace Snow, Stephen Tosh. Limited edition LP release (180 gram vinyl) with previously unpublished bonus tracks + free download card. "'In late 1962 Harry Partch returned to California and began a project that would not only become the bones of a masterwork, Delusion of the Fury, but have a life of its own. In a too-small space within an abandoned Petaluma chick hatchery, Partch gathered the instruments he had designed and built -- new and old -- eager to once again expand the boundaries of his compositional fabric. He learned each individual part as he composed, establishing that it could be played. And On The Seventh Day Petals Fell In Petaluma (1963-64, rev. 1966) was born of his exploration and assembled with that 'minimum of players' over a three-year period. In spite of rough conditions and meager resources Partch's dogged persistence, along with the efforts of his dedicated assistants, eventually succeeded in realizing the 34 verses of expanded duets. With this album we revisit an important work and turning-point, guided by the original 'Statement' Partch wrote for the first commercial release of the piece. Previously only excerpted, it is a voicing of his beliefs that transcends one project to illuminate an entire purpose. We also reprise exquisite notes by the late Bob Gilmore, who distills and explains the story of Petals so clearly and eloquently. No one wants a dead reissue, so by digging into the archives, I am pleased to offer hidden gems. First, The Petals Sessions is an aural glance into the cramped quarters of the recording space, as composer and players labor to bring new notes to life, Harry himself giving direction. The montage ends with a 'test take' by Danlee Mitchell and Michael Ranta that could have easily been a keeper! Finally, we present the original Verse 17. In 1964 Partch wrote two duets that used the Adapted Viola; by the time the piece was finished in 1967, he had excised them. The ending track -- never before released -- brings Harry back to life, playing and recording Adapted Viola for one of the last times. I was completely unaware of this recording until I examined the outtakes and it glows, fifty years on. That Petals ever came to be, like much of Partch's story, stands somewhere between determination and miracle.' --Jon Szanto, The Harry Partch Foundation" Price, Vincent: Hornbook for Witches CD $12.99Reissue of the ultra-rare 1976 vinyl, Vincent Price's A Hornbook For Witches, Stories And Poems For Halloween, on CD for the first time. Turn up the volume, and turn down the lights. Suspense-master Vincent Price presents a hair-raising, bone-chilling collection of classic horror tales featuring a ghastly brew of witches, ghosts, and goblins. Edgar Allan Poe's eerie Dreamland, John Collier's offbeat Thus I Refute Beezly, and Marias Leech's practical but frightful How To See Ghosts Or Surely Bring Them To You, are just a few of the tales stirring up fear in this chilling concoction of horror. These stories, sounds, spells, and incantations will send shivers up your spine. This is a truly amazing landmark recording from the good old days presented by one of the greatest voices of horror. Also features pieces written by Leah Bodine Drake, Charles Kingsley, and John Kendrick Bangs. Comes complete with all the original stunning album artwork. Digitally remastered. Gundella - The Hour Of The Witch LP $27.99 Make someone love you, discourage an unwanted suitor, and more - with the power of witchcraft! Finally, this obscure LP of spells reappears! A descendant of the green witches of Scotland, part of a Detroit area coven, and author of multiple books and a newspaper column helping solve everyday problems from the Wiccan perspective, Gundella helps you test your psychic powers, make ritualistic candles, and mold wax dolls. She’ll define witchcraft & magic, and teach you how to cast your own spells! Gundella’s arcane instructions are accompanied by a perfectly atmospheric and esoteric soundscape created by her son. All scribed into bewitching green vinyl or CD! Both including extensive notes by Gundella’s daughter! The LP features a 16 page portfolio of Witch Watch articles compiled by Gundella herself! Kelela - Take Me Apart black vinyl $24.99 Kelela - Take Me Apart (TRANSPARENT VINYL) $28.99With great anticipation, Kelela's debut album emerges as an epic portrait of an artist spanning the past and future of R&B. In her hands, however, the genre knows no boundaries and so Take Me Apart exists as an absolutely singular and fearless addition to a canon of recent classics. From her very earliest work, honesty and vulnerability have been cornerstones of Kelela's art - even when clad in the armor of the avant-garde electronics she so deftly inhabits - and Take Me Apart sees her double down on both the emotional intensity and resonance of her message as well as the sonic seeking she is renowned for. Single vinyl with printed inner and outer sleeves includes download code. Various Artists - Detroit Ghetto Blues 1948-1954 LP $20.99 Laraaji - Bring On The Sun + Sun Gong CD restock $17.99 Wolfe, Chelsea - Hiss Spun LP $26.99 While past albums operated on the intimacy of stripped-down folk music (The Grime and the Glow, Unknown Rooms), or the throbbing pulse of supplemental electronics (Pain Is Beauty, Abyss), Chelsea Wolfe’s sixth official album Hiss Spun wrings its exquisiteness out of a palette of groaning bass, pounding drums, and crunching distortion. Recorded by Kurt Ballou (Converge), the album was conceived as an emotional purge, a means of coming to terms with the tumult of the outside world by exploring the complexities of one’s inner unrest. “I’m at odds with myself,” she explains. “I got tired of trying to disappear. The record became very personal in that way. I wanted to open up more, but also create my own reality.” Hiss Spun features contributions by Aaron Turner (Old Man Gloom, SUMAC) and Troy Van Leeuwen (Queens of the Stone Age, Failure). Various Artists - Lake Michigan Blues 1934-1941 LP $20.99 MacKay, Bill and Ryley Walker - SpiderBeetleBee LP $22.99 Drag City presents the second volume of Bill MacKay and Ryley Walker's inspired collaboration. It's been nearly two years since their much-admired 2015 debut, Land of Plenty (Whistler Records), and SpiderBeetleBee more than makes up for lost time with rich, resonant performances that elevate the sound of the guitar duo as they work with an ever-widening panorama of styles. Their first album was developed over a month-long live residency at Chicago bar The Whistler, and reflected MacKay and Walker's shared joy in a new relationship with a kindred spirit, in playing that might wordlessly finish a phrase or suggest a direction, as they spoke through their guitars. SpiderBeetleBee continues fluidly down the path of their initial psych-folkblues-raga tandem, brewing further explorations in mixed-and-matchedidioms, turning composed melodies inside-out via improvisation, and finding in the blend a shared Walker/ MacKay pasture, serendipitously found somewhere between Appalachia and the Highlands. SpiderBeetleBee radiates forth with equal parts austerity and whimsy, opening with an almost-baroque dance before giving way to a Celtictheme, both featuring MacKay and Walker's acoustics in rambling conversation, picking through intricate passages as though they were exchanges, thoughts and afterthoughts. The second of these, Pretty Weeds Revisited is enhanced by sonorous statements from Dutch cellist Katinka Kleijn (a veteran of the CSO), showing a deep, instinctive feel for the Walker/MacKay sound. The album then takes an unexpected turn at midpoint, slowly melting down and drifting soulfully through the expansive space of Naturita. Side two picks up the tempo on 'I Heard ThemSinging,' with the aid of MacKay's requinto (a kind of 5-string Mexican guitar), Walker's rolling chords and the percolating tabla of Ryan Jewell, suggesting a hitherto unknown short-cut from Brazil to India. Drafts of slide guitar and bittersweet blues evocation illumine further fruitfultravels before Dragonfly, also featuring Ms. Kleijn's haunting cello, closes the cycle with a flourish. Adorned with Bill MacKay's colorful and wilfully primitive cover-art, SpiderBeetleBee wanders through styles, landmasses and hemispheres, capturing the further adventures of MacKay and Walker with spellbinding snapshots that only bloom Iggy & The Stooges - Raw Power limited RED VINYL lp $29.99 "Released less than a year after The Idiot, Lust For Life is a return to the sloppy, sleazy, blues-y, swagger of the Stooges. Though the record is, again produced by David Bowie, he takes much more of a back seat musically, allowing for Iggy Pop to take center stage in his return to form. His best solo album and an absolute classic from this legend. Limited edition of 1,000 on red vinyl."
