Graham Lambkin is a multidisciplinary artist based in Upstate New York who first came to prominence in the early 90′s through the formation of his music group The Shadow Ring. Following the dissolution of The Shadow Ring Lambkin embarked on a series of striking and highly original solo releases, including Salmon Run (2007) and Amateur Doubles (2012), a critically acclaimed trilogy with experimental tape musician Jason Lescalleet: The Breadwinner (2007), Air Supply (2010) and Photographs (2013), and Making A (2013) a collaboration with renowned table-top guitarist and founding member of the  AMM group, Keith Rowe.

Lambkin also curates the Kye label, which, since it’s conception in 2001 has published audio work by contemporary artists such as Vanessa Rossetto, Malcolm Goldstein, and Matt Krefting, as well as archival collections from the likes of Henning Christiansen, Moniek Darge and Anton Heyboer.

“... [Joe Mcphee's] magical take on avant-garde sax remains one of the wonders of the scene. He still has one of the most beautiful tones on the planet, even when he’s reaching for jazz’s outer limits.” – Time Out New York

Joe McPhee is a deeply emotional composer, improviser, and multi-instrumentalist, as well as a thoughtful conceptualist and theoretician. McPhee’s first recordings as leader appeared on the CjR label, founded in 1969 by painter Craig Johnson, including the landmark Nation Time in 1970. He also had a long association with the Swiss label Hat Hut — which started in order to release McPhee's music — and his solo playing and various transatlantic collaborations over the last decades has included both wildly joyous experimentation (including early usage of tape and electronics/ duos with synthesizer player Jon Snyder) and deep, re-imaginings of the jazz tradition.

Lee är en av de mest dynamiska krafterna inom improviserad musik idag, en orädd och övertygande musiker vars spel innehåller en kärlek till oljud, extraordinär teknik och element från ytterkanterna av modern komposition.

Lee har samarbetat med många av de ledande personerna inom dagens kreativa musik, bland andra Christian Marclay, Thurston Moore, Wadada Leo Smith, Ikue Mori, Evan Parker, C. Spencer Yeh, Carlos Giffoni och Maja Rajtke. År 2013 släppte hon "Ghil", en LP med solo-improvisationer inspelade direkt på diktafon av Lasse Marhaug, som hyllades som "årets noise-skiva".

"Okkyung Lee förvränger, stör och till och med dekonstruerar sitt instrument så att det inte går att känna igen. Och resultatet är helt enkelt fantastiskt." - Joseph Burnett, The Quietus

Rashad Becker’s Traditional Music of Notional Species, Vol. 1. is one of the most singular recordings of electronic music of the 21st century – combining an intensely personal sound-world together with a highly developed narrative structure. Long sought after as a mastering and cutting engineer at Dubplates & Mastering in Berlin, his own recordings and live performances attest to a personal vision for sound and music that has little parallel.

John Edwards is a true virtuoso whose staggering range of techniques and boundless musical imagination have redefined the possibility of the double bass and dramatically expanded its role, whether playing solo or with others. 
Perpetually in demand, he has played with Evan Parker, Roscoe Mitchell, Sunny Murray, Derek Bailey, Joe McPhee, Lol Coxhill, Louis Moholo, Peter Brötzmann, Mulatu Astatke, Jonny Greenwood and countless others.

"I think John Edwards is absolutely remarkable: there’s never been anything like him before, anywhere in jazz." - Richard Williams, The Blue Moment

Mark has worked with many greats of the British, European and American free jazz improvised music scene including Roscoe Mitchell, Roswell Rudd, Evan Parker, John Butcher, Henry Grimes, Elaine Mitchener, Wadada Leo Smith, Myra Melford, Charles Gayle, Sirone and William Parker.
