Edited by Rob Young, this presents a selection of 19 'Primers', a series that has been running since 1996 in the WIRE magazine. The Primer is an extensive article written by an expert to introduce people to certain figureheads or genres of new music from all kind of categories, with a biography and a list of essential albums by that artist or group. Illustrated by the incomparable Savage Pencil aka Edwin Pouncey, this is really an example of the level of writing and knowledge in the WIRE. So get primed for Captain Beefheart, Iannis Xenakis, The Fall, Noise, No Wave, Tropicalia, AMM, Fela Kuti, Dubstep, Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Stockhausen, John Cage, Morton Feldman, Musique Concrete - well.. you know what the WIRE people go for!
Several Primers have been expanded and updated and 3 new ones added: Nick Cain on
noise, Edwin Pouncey on Frank Zappa And The Mothers Of Invention, and
Philip Clark on improv guitarist Derek Bailey. 200 pages, paperback.

Lee Ranaldo, Christian Marclay, Günter Müller and David Watson. What a company! Most of these people don't need further explanation, maybe just say that David Watson from New Zealand plays bagpipes and guitar, and that Swiss musician Günter Müller's subtle, spare, and meditative playing turns sound into liquid textures.
Three sides of bubbling audio biosphere and a fourth-side etching by Lee Ranaldo, made specially for the project. Recorded in the Echo Canyon Studio on Murray Street in downtown New York, mixed and edited by Jim O’Rourke.
The sleeve is brilliant, by the way, with exclusive art work by Leah Singer.

A duo recording between Tetuzi Akiyama and Jozef van Wissem, a Dutch lutist with a history of somewhat academic forays into the 17th century music (which shouldn't be surprising, given his somewhat anachronistic instrument of choice), seems like an odd match. Perhaps it was prompted by Wissem’s recent duo with another fringe musician working with blues idioms, Gary Lucas. Tetuzi Akiyama: nylonstring resonator guitar, tuned to Renaissance lute tuning and Jozef van Wissem: ten-course Renaissance lute.
