" Someone's comment about the sound of Lezet was "like Zorn without saxophone"...And indeed, Lezet's work could remind the results of "the game theory", which John Zorn exercised on his debut "Locus Solus"", for example...The fact that LEZET don't use only live instruments will probably disconnect it from the avantgarde free jazz scene, but I suppose the coming under some specific style wasn't the intent in this case anyway. It's about free experiments with sound captures in search for the surprises.And it can't be pretentious as such...

23.LEZET "THE NOISE ARCHIVES" (March2008), released with "Clinical Archives", Moscow, Russia.This 32min-long EP is a set of solo noise improvisations done exclusively by using keyboards (and the awesome pitch lever).The material was directly recorded and there were no additional overdubbing or re-mixing; I nevertheless think that the quality of those recording is ok.This album is completely different from all the ones Lezet did (all other albums contained premeditated and (loosely) "structured "materials)."

28.LEZET-"ATONA" EP(May2008)-a series of recordings dating from 2005 to 2008 ,released with Dog Eared Records(Mexico).The tracks are entitled after the actual days of of their respective creation.Here's what Max Go wrote about this EP:
"On the one hand, there are things I cherish - chord progressions that utilize what I desperately hope others will think of as sophisticated chromaticism. On the other hand, there are artists who offer up studies in an eloquence that not only humbles my harmonic vocabulary but more importantly, exemplifies a diversification into a higher sonic strata.
Enter Lezet's Atona.
These studies glisten and sizzle, poke and stab, stutter, jerk and cavort about beautifully without a hint of anything related to traditional music theory. There is humor and seriousness here. I conjure in my head a gene-splice of Groucho Marx and Arnold Schoenberg or maybe if the Monty Python cast were given scholarships to Julliard. Julliard would be so lucky.
This is not music for the masses. But boy would I like to play it for them, that they may be momentarily privy, as I was, to these concise statements that are refreshing in their lightheartedness and restraint.

34.LEZET-THREAD (July2008).It's a collection of Lezet songs , a sort of "Best Of" album,rearranged and brought to you by Ken of Protecious."By mixing original soundsources, stranger than strange musique concrète-influenced sampling methods, contemporary classical song constructions, designing process algorithms with the basically different approach of noise and the efforts to do radically new things in what we still call ..rock music' with computational resources, this best-of collection makes of Lezet one of our most challenging artists. Even though being arty and intellectual, this music is raw, powerful, and iconoclastic, with a real urgency : express yourself and forget political correctness !".Having been announced as a joint release, "THREAD"is now released and available for free download both through "PINK ESCAPISM"(USA) and "SCHNURSTRAX" Luxembourg).Coverart,Art Layout, And Music Compiled, Arranged And "Quantified" Remixed By Protecious;link to free download: http://catalogueatstrx.blogspot.com/

37.LEZET-DISTORTED PIANO RECORDINGS(July2008)."For Meatronic Recordings, Lezet submits this patient study of the interaction of piano with distortion, and it is quite hypnotizing once you figure out what is going on. Contra-puntal lines throw off side-band distortion in beautiful and startling ways somehow.";free download :

39.LEZET-MELD2 (August2008)-free dl album released with AUDIO TONG(Poland)."Meld2" was conceived as a set of experimental collaborative pieces with artists from different countries and of somewhat different avantgarde sensibilities."Conversing in The Universal Language - says Lezet - gave birth to this EP and the stretching itself was a reward.Lezet was able to learn and grow from his fellow comrades as he progressed with this EP."
This is the second part of Lezet's collaborative project in which he explores various techniques and possibilities of interactions and collaborations between artists usually not working physically together.
The music is a mixture of avant-garde,electroacoustic, jazz, world music etc. At some points it sounds like improv, at other it reminds of contemporary academic pieces.
Intriguing and intelligent, demanding lots of attention from the listener but rewarding with its quality. Great stuff, listen to it on a good sound system to get as much from this music as possible.".The following fellow artists made this album possible: Leo Alves Vieira(Brasil),Ensemble Phase Drei (Germany),Isaac de la Concha (Mexico),Colin John Conass&Manji&Jimmy Bandit (France).you can download the whole album in flac and mp3 formats at:http://audiotong.net/cmsms/index.php?page=tng1043

42.LEZET-"DIN 2" (Sept2008).Lezet's "Din2" further explores the delicacies of computer-piano interactions sought for on "Headphonica"'s "Din" release.Drawing upon a multitude of genres Lezet's only aim is to see his sounds "cavorting about beautifully" ,just as Max Go once said in his overview of Lezet's music.This time the brilliant London-based SOUNDSORANGE label known for its broad-minded release policy put out "Din2" and it's the first time a UK-based label released an album by Lezet.

43.LEZET-"CHARACTER"(Oct2008)(released through HEADPHONICA label(Germany))-this album was recorded by using a typing computer keyboard as the sound-delivering device where each letter is represented by a distinct note.At times , the nature of the revealed melody called for more of a strictly typist approach, while at others the individual tracks necessitated changes in pitch,melody,dynamics to avoid sounding sternly kinda typist.The relation between typing machines and music keyboards fascinated me since I was a kid and this was a way of paying homage to this childhood fascination of mine.Plus I had tons of things to type out while at the University and the arrhythmic nature of the sounds made while typing galvanised me into exploring the abovementioned relation. Typists:Marijana Tanaskovic, Igor Jovanovic

44.LEZET&THROUROOF-ADRIA(Oct2008);released with DogEaredRecords(Mexico).Here's what Max Go wrote about this release:
"The latest from Lezet / Throuroof is four timbrally akin pieces that form the transluscent walls of their aural pharmacy. I hear the sound of wet fingers circling around the edges of myriad crystal vials. Meanwhile, a recurring flock of cloned seagulls seem to be the stereo delayed glee club inside this four movement experiment. But then again, maybe it's not an experiment at all. Maybe L/T fully know what L/T are doing. Through the calculated use of hollowed out and echoic sounds we are drawn into a digital cathedral that is its own glass pipe organ, churning out ethereal hymns. The disciplined palette of sounds used relates to square waves, high frequency attack transients and incidental effects. This non - busy, unspectacular but nonetheless tasteful approach to composition ultimately results in a calming listening experience."

48.LEZET-"INTERVALS"(Nov2008)-released with FORMAT NOISE(Germany)."The "Intervals" album is sort of sequel to "Lezet2" and it delves a bit deeper into the issue of track duration (a 15-sec track vs. a 60-minute track)."Lezet2" album was about presenting concise statements , and "Intervals" thrives on having a main-theme and variations interact within a 60-minute frame.The timbre builds communication blocks varying in pitch and duration that interlace at intervals.This album contains the first 60-minute track Lezet has ever created.
It's the perfect experimental album for christmas time, because it sounds a little bit like a Christmas tree on LSD. It's great experimental work, so please enjoy it."format noise,2008. You can download the album here: http://www.format-noise.com/releases.php?viewRelease=29

"Lezet and litmus0001 explore aleatory psycho-sonic impressionism through each others music with “ucestala analiza repeated analysis”, a double EP featuring remixes of each other’s work. More than just re-interpretations, these are unique compositions that integrate and transcend their original sources, and demonstrate the distinct qualities of “dark improvise-ated free ambient” and “free ambient-inated dark improvisation”.free download at:
54.ANDRE VIDA& LEZET-"INVASIVE"(Feb2009);released with CLINICAL ARCHIVES(Russia)."Lezet took Andre Vida's live recordings and reorganized some of the materials into small saxophone and spoken word particles.He manipulated those into improvised passages over which he improvised again (this time by using piano keyboards).The result will hopefully be appealing to those who seek an aural challenge."Vida is an amazing composer and saxophone player who performed and collaborated with some of the greatest jazzmen ever, including Anthony Braxton,Cecil Taylor etc.

His improvised style takes on mew emotions with every song seeming like each creation is an extension of himself- almost instinct. Please welcome your ears to Lezet."You can download this album here: http://www.archive.org/details/lezet-not_of_the_loins

65.LASSE MARHAUG & LEZET-"THE SHAPE OF ROCK TO COME REVISITED"(Sept2009)-released through CLINICAL ARCHIVES(free dl).Having heard the stunning "The Shape of Rock to Come" album for the first time I was dazzled by the energy both raw and subtle, by the physicality of the release and by its meticulously crafted compositions.It was my first encounter with Lasse's music and I took to it straight away.By making a reinterpretation of the album I did not seek to alter anything as there wasn't a single portion of any track that needed altering.Instead, its sole purpose was to celebrate one of the iconic figures in recent music history and to preserve Lasse's abstract narrative as closely as possible (while adding a tint of Lezet-ness into the mixes as well).I thank Lasse for allowing this release to happen.You can download the release here:

66.LEZET-"EXTENDED"(Nov2009)(released through PLANETARIUM RECORDS(USA))."What do irradiated beetles, injection-molded spider sculptures and dj battery brain have in common? probably nothing, but listen to the findings of professor lizet in lab 128!Incited and propelled by Satie's "Vexations", this album explores the theme being a variation in itself, weaving a net of dissonant statements. Having no other pretentious goals save pleasing the inner ear, the album is made with a view of exploring the aforementioned "theme equals variation" relation." you can download the album here:

Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
