Greetings!
Some new things from the folks at Neuma Records & Projekt Records morphs into a bunch of used goodies I found in a store in Ellicott City, MD.  Someone was getting rid of their collection of prog and prog-metal, so I scarfed up a handful of Spock's Beard releases along with most of what comprises Phase Two.
Enjoy!

9-28-24 Pushing The Envelolpe: Music Decidedly Left of Center - Celebrating National Piano Month

Greetings!
PTE closes out the month of September by celebrating National Piano Month with a taste of numerous musical genres featuring the instrument that Andrés Segovia described as, " a monster that screams when you touch its teeth" or as author Maria Cristina noted, “The piano keys are black and white but they sound like a million colors in your mind.” 
That being said, I'm particularly fond of Thelonius Monk's observation, “The piano ain’t got no wrong notes.”
Enjoy!

9-14-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center

Greetings!
Much new listening for us all this week!  I'm particularly thrilled to open this week's program with new music from composer/reed player, Ken Field's latest Neuma Records release, "The Canopy". Ken is an old friend of Pushing The Envelope and it's alway a sonic pleasure when he puts out a new release.
In addition, lots of music from other folks who've you've heard on PTE previously, featuring new releases from Ken Wallraf, Trem77 & Fletina (in tandem w/ fellow sound artist, Peter Wullen). 
Lastly, I broke out my copy of Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music" to close things out.
Enjoy!

8-24-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center celebrates International Strange Music Day

Greetings!
Welcome to Pushing The Envelope's annual celebration of International Strange Music Day, the brainchild of New York City musician/composer Patrick Grant & creator of the public music ensemble, Tilted Axes: Music for Mobile Electric Guitars. The purpose of International Strange Music Day is to expand people's musical horizons by introducing them to genres, artists, and sounds that they may not normally listen to.  I hope my selections for today's program serve that intent.
Enjoy!

Happy Post-Birthday to Terry Riley! (June 24th)
Enjoy an early composition from 1965 followed by a new composition honoring Terry Riley's, "Poppy Nogood and the Phantom Band", the "B-side" of his classic release, "A Rainbow In Curved Air". "
Poppy Nogood and the Phantom Band" is a saxophone-based drone piece featuring tape loops and edits, drawing on Riley's all-night improvisatory performances in the 1960s.
The balance of the program features the usual musical shenanigans you've come to know and love from Pushing The Envelope.
Have fun,
