IORRAM KY 235 & IORRAM PD65

Two new releases from Iorram Records; November 2019


Yonder by - Saadet Türköz, Nick Fells, Neil Davidson (DL) IORRAM KY 235

This trio of Saadet Türköz - voice/lyrics, Nick Fells - laptop and Neil Davidson - acoustic guitar was recorded live at The Old Hairdressers, April 2017. The three pieces amount to a thorough investigation of pattern, layering, process and form;  each gesture conveying its own purpose and fold; physically present and at the same time open to the breadth of the other players
Saadet's voice is from everywhere. "In my improvisations ... I am looking to transform memory. I seek to evoke pictures and atmosphere by means of voice and music which transcend cultural boundaries."  



Rewardless Flowers - The Final Five (DL) IORRAM PD65

THE FINAL FIVE is an exquisite corpse of free jazz, a vivid science fiction mess of loops and conditionals linking conceptual processes and human flesh. The music bypasses romanticism for an erotics of repetition. Anticipation abounds, awaiting aural perceptions that we don't know about yet, of things underneath, of codes hidden. Again. Trio studio recording from 2014.  Fritz Welch (drums), Armin Sturm (double bass) &  Neil Davidson (guitar).
