Absurd folklorist Henry Jacobs returns with a selection of rare interviews, odd loops, sales pitches, early synthesizer demos, an ether-infused evening, and more! Produced in San Francisco and New York City, Around The World With Henry Jacobs is a travelogue that continues the story begun with The Wide Weird World of Henry Jacobs, mixing archival material from the 1950s with recent improvisations by Jacobs. Guests include Stan Freberg and Dr. Irwin Corey, with Alan Watts returning for a visit, too.
Also included is special bonus disc — First Night, one of the true gems from the collection. Recorded in February 1957 by Henry Jacobs on the opening night of the Poetry/Jazz Series at The Cellar in San Francisco, this unique document captures the first time Kenneth Rexroth and Lawrence Ferlinghetti read their poetry to jazz in this very intimate setting. In contrast to Fantasy Records' Poetry Readings in the Cellar, you feel yourself a part of the audience here, moments punctuated with a register ringing, muted conversations, laughter, and clinking glasses. Includes Rexroth reading "Between Myself And Death" and "She Is Away", and Ferlinghetti reading "The World is A Beautiful Place."
Around The World With Henry Jacobs (produced by Jack Dangers, Alex Artaud, & Henry Jacobs) Release date: April 27, 2010 (Important Records) |

D::N is excited to present 'The Most Music;' an exclusive Meat Beat Manifesto 1-hr Ableton Live mix.
Jack Dangers' Meat Beat Manifesto project has inspired an entire generation of musicians and has constantly evolved (and recycled) sound into creative reformations over the past 20+ years. For this exclusive mix Jack unleashes an audio-collage of seismic induced basslines. 'The Most Music' bends, tweaks and reverberates electro-dub with ease and control that it is clearly evident; MBM's smorgasbord of analog-to-digital machinery is firmly intact from start to finish. A few classic MBM offerings and new (unreleased) tracks are mixed with vintage radio identifications, obscure broadcast announcements, Brazilian snippets, familiar (deconstructed) samples, syncopated beats, wobbly bass and heavy distortion.
'The Most Music' is a ravaging dub-infested dose of heavily drenched rhythms, off-center funk-breaks and creative sampling summed up in a 60-minute Ableton Live jam-session by Jack Dangers himself. Have a taste of what's to come with the next incarnation of MBM's sound pallet as it rips through the airwaves of KUCI 88.9FM via Digital::Nimbus Radio.
