ABOUT THIS SHOW

Saxophonist, composer and improviser Cole Pulice traffics in shimmering, otherworldly beauty.

"Pulice has become a punk grandchild to the Coltrane-Sanders-Ayler father-son-holy ghost equation and put out arguably the best release on Longform Editions, no mean feat." - Pitchfork


COLE PULICE

On Land’s End Eternal, their first album for Leaving Records (releasing May 9th), the Oakland-based artist expands their compositional palette beyond signal-processed saxophone to include layers of electric guitar and lush choral arrangements. The result is a prismatic collection of pastoral chamber jazz in six parts. Cole’s previous release, a 22-minute electroacoustic odyssey titled If I Don’t See You in the Future, I’ll See You In the Pasture (Longform Editions, 2023), was named ‘Best New Music’ by Pitchfork and included in the publication’s Best Songs Of The 2020s. Cole has also released a smattering of solo and collaborative work on beloved labels including Moon Glyph, Aural Canyon and Cached Media. Their performance history includes appearances at Pitchfork Music Festival (UK), Rewire (NL), ÜBERJAZZ (DE), Drone Not Drones (US), & Noise Pop Festival (US).

Across the album’s five pieces, Raben probes the mechanics of the organ while employing sonic techniques that bring to mind the hypnotic minimalism of early Terry Riley, the ecstatic resonance of Charlemagne Palestine, or the unpredictable melodic runs of Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou. Alan Sparhawk of Low has called Molly Raben’s music “immediately captivating and engaging,” and In the Kingdom of Flowers—her first major release—makes this clear to the curious listener from the first note.

A longtime church organist, Molly Raben has spent years both inhabiting and investigating the instrument, its musical and physical spatiality, its utility and the limitless capabilities it holds. “Angel Pathway Garden Procession,” the album’s opener, instantaneously immerses the listener in a sonic world that ebbs and... more
