The new Itaru Oki is great - it's a duet with French bass player Benjamin Duboc. Much sparer than this, as might be expected. It's available at this site for a good price and is highly recommended - http://www.improvising-beings.com/#contact

Thanks for Shirasagi!

2015 reissue on CD in Japan only was a limited thing and is now out of print and fetching upwards of $75 - nuts - https://www.discogs.com/沖至-しらさぎ/release/7885349

I would upload it but I also would like to confer with someone - not with 'Anonymous' anymore.

@Alcofribas - what?

Itaru lives in Paris and plays dates here several times a year. If you're a serious Parisian free jazz fan you've met him.

When I said "next time I see Itaru" I didn't know it would probably be next Saturday.
Just got this update in my inbox.

FELICIE BAZELAIRE contrebasse

composition pour contrebasse seule de patricia bosshard, bertrand denzler et d'incise
en musique ancienne, un ground est une basse obstinée, un ostinato mélodico-rythmique.

ici, grounds est un ensemble de pièces et lieu d'exploration expérimentale de la contrebasse.

Think I'll go.
Don't worry Ernst, I'd be very surprised if Itaru objects to your upload.

Thanks for info, Alcofribas.
Although I know that Sensei Oki lives in Paris I haden't yet the opportunity to see/hear him live.
Greetings to Itaru Oki from a German admirer of his music.
