{"product_id":"634457198272","title":"Mazurek, Rob \"Alternate Moon Cycles\" [Deluxe IA11 Edition]","description":"\u003cp\u003eRob Mazurek’s Alternate Moon Cycles was our first release. The incredibly spare single-note-centered cornet, bass and organ chant was recorded to tape at pint-sized Chicago bar Curio as part of a performance series that predates any notion of our label’s existence. Documenting this performance – highly unique even within the depths of Mazurek’s vast catalog – stirred those notions, and soon talks began of releasing the recording on a fresh imprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePerformed by Mazurek with Matthew Lux and Mikel Patrick Avery, the music unfolds glacially amongst the gentle creaks, clinks, whispers, and scuffles of the active room. It’s difficult to imagine a more honest rendering of the two sidelong pieces of organic minimal music, and nearly impossible to separate the sounds from their performance context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNow this long-gone gem of supernatural frequency excavation is back in print on vinyl, wrapped in our IARC 2025 obi strip, with a new 4-page insert booklet featuring additional session photos and fresh liner notes by Mikel Patrick Avery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe new IA11 Edition vinyl LP will be in stores on March 28th. In anticipation of that, we've re-released the album on all digital music platforms today with the addition of a digital-only 20-minute bonus track titled \"Tree of Life,\" which documents Mazurek leading a large ensemble (including Matthew Lux, Mikel Patrick Avery, Jeff Parker and others) in a unique performance of the music from Alternate Moon Cycles, recorded in July of 2013 under a tree in the garden next to Plein Air Cafe in Hyde Park, Chicago.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"---","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":45021581377711,"sku":"634457198272","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/files\/4401000-3320005.jpg?v=1743121111","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/634457198272","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
