A resource for artful and demanding music in many genres, especially contemporary and C20th classical, experimental, jazz, Baroque, improv, the outer fringes of rock, prog, electronica, global... and a little Early Music too. Includes original reviews, listening posts, links and updates catalogued by a writer who is eclectically absorbed by creative sounds. Material here is (c) Simon Barrow 2002-2019, unless otherwise indicated.
