Cansu Tanrikulu Kantoj de Fermiteco Hand-Numbered Limited Edition One-Step 45rpm Import LP

"Spooky moods. Powerful playing. Telepathic communication. A beautiful and adventurous collection of surrealistic sonic tableaux by three master musicians." — John Zorn

Cansu Tanrikulu (1991, Ankara) is a vocal artist, composer and improviser based in Berlin. She is one of the busiest young voices in the European creative music scene leading projects and performing with artists such as Jim Black, Elias Stemeseder, Max Andrzejewski, Anthony Braxton, Marc Ribot and many more. Her elastic singing, wide stylistic vocabulary and far reaching approach to melody and text-based improvisation made her an in-demand vocalist and composer in multiple genres performing in renowned platforms of Europe. Tanrikulu's album Kantoj de Fermiteco was recorded in February 2021 and was produced by Guy Sternberg at LowSwing Studio in Berlin.

On this record Tanrikulu join forces with two legendary musicians: Bass player Greg Cohen, who has been shaping music history in his lifetime playing with such as Tom Waits, Ornette Coleman, Bob Dylan, Brian Eno and countless more and sax/clarinet virtuoso Tobias Delius (Han Bennink, Louis Moholo, Misha Mengelberg, Bill Frisell). Combining experience with a no holds barred attitude as musicians, the band became one of the leading groups of the improvised music scene of Europe. The trio democratically guides the music and invents new forms of avant-garde songs every single performance, creating an adventurous drift through distinctive melodies, throwing the listener into the dense emotionality of a Shamanistic ritual.

The album was recorded in a single session fully analogue and completely computer-free recorded directly onto a master tape without post production processing.

The unique artwork drawing for the album's cover is by the German artist Inken Reinert.

Kantoj de Fermiteco is available exclusively on 140g vinyl recorded directly to an analogue master tape, cut at 45RPM and pressed using audiophile "one step plating."
