Pupae and pupal gut in wt and Mmp2-knockdown
New paper from @uwe689.bsky.social !
Muscle and #ECM remodeling during fly metamorphosis is still poorly understood. Why? Pupae are really hard to work with.
Uwe took on the challenge and explored how Mmp2 contributes to this amazing morphogenetic process.

Barre Phillips — ‘Mountainscapes’
Without doubt my favourite ECM record ever and a massive personal inspiration. Imagine 1970s Miles Davis with krautrock synths and you’re partway there. Funky, chaotic, mathematically precise, and atmospherically beautiful.

Delighted to welcome our newest postdoc, Krista Habing, to the lab!
Krista will develop novel proteomics technology to gain insights into the #ECM. She will also explore the roles of SNED1 in craniofacial development.
Welcome Krista! I look forward to the many discoveries we'll make together 👩🔬
🎊 Big congratulations to Leanna Leverton on successfully defending her PhD dissertation!
It has been a pleasure and a privilege to watch her grow as a researcher. Her hard work, curiosity, and persistence led to exciting discoveries about the #ECM and a fantastic defense!
Congrats Dr. Leverton 🎓

From the 2010 #ECM debut for bassist Michael Formanek - The Rub and Spare Change was magic...with Tim Berne; alto saxophone; Craig Taborn: piano; Gerald Cleaver: drums, and the opener is an eye opener with its melodically moody and mysterious soundscape!

Jack DeJohnette’s Directions — ‘Untitled’
Step 28 in my #ecmodyssey is ECM 1074. The sticker says I got this at Academy in New York by memory says it came from World of Echo in London.

Kenny Wheeler — ‘Gnu High’
Getting back to the usual programme, step 27 in my #ecmodyssey is ECM 1069. Nice. This was recently reissued but mine is a US original bought at Black Noise in Bellingham. Will I ever get to go back there?

Circle — ‘Paris-Concert’
Step 26 in my #ecmodyssey is a step back to ECM 1018/19 (although my US OG lists it as 2-1018). Going back because I just picked up a copy of this. Unlike most early free-jazz-adjacent ECMs, this is far from rare, so I’d passed on it before.

Terje Rypdal — ‘Odyssey’
Step 25 in my #ecmodyssey is ECM1067/68 aka… ‘Odyssey’. It’s one I’ve considered selling (maybe just cos the genre/title combo evokes Spinal Tap). Glad I still have it as @berlintypography.bsky.social recently told me it was his fave Terje.

Eberhard Weber — ‘Yellow Fields’
Step 24 in my #ecmodyssey is ECM 1066. All the Weber albums from this period are great and they have lovely covers too. German original in beautiful condition. Sticker in Hebrew on the back, for some reason.

The first time I heard this record, I barely noticed what was going on within it, subconsciously pitching it, I suppose, as a kind photo-ambient offering. But in more recent years, attentive listening reveals the movement and connectivity within the work of the two trios featured on the LP. Side one often just plays on repeat mode.
Recorded in the hot New York summer of 1967, the 17-minute-long Ending slowly marks out each player’s respective areas as they slip in and out of trio formation. It’s a conversation that doesn’t encourage repetition, where reclusive piano notes skulk between the reverberations of snare and cymbal or the telling economy of laconic bass. As each player revolves within their respective sphere of influence, when they gradually overlap or align, fresh exchanges are sparked. It’s this process of gentle accretion and dissolution that gives Ballads its intense but quiet beauty.
This is the second vintage New York recording of Bley’s on ECM, and it’s easy to grasp Eicher’s attraction and why he sought to adopt them, given that the aural spaciousness that would come to define ECM recordings is present, albeit in nascent form, throughout Ballads. A minimalist painting in sound that stands well outside the decade of its creation, it possesses a timelessness that’s indicative of the best kind of art. That quality seems wholly appropriate for a man whose 1999 autobiography was entitled Stopping Time.
Annette Peacock’s writing provides the conceptual underpinnings, while the respective trios do the heavy lifting. Her role here is crucial to the album's success, and she doesn't get anything like enough credit for her work. Speaking to The Wire in 1983 about working with Bley, she said, “I wrote music specifically for that time, that environment, and that particular person. Whatever I did for him had to be fresh and give the musicians something to work on or towards, creating an environment for them to work within. The free movement at that time was just pure energy, just chaos - ‘We’re free at last! - I looked at that, and I could see a balance had to be struck, so I started off writing music that wasn’t in time, it just had speeds. Music that didn’t deal with traditional chord shapes but relationships between harmony and dissonance, and how they interacted. That opened up a whole new world to me as a composer.”
Paul Bley
Ballads ECM 1010
Recorded in 1967, in what could be a Morton Feldman score for jazz trio or a manifesto for The Necks' sonic minimalism, Bley’s poetic ear charts starry clusters that grow, glow, and fade within the gauzy expanse of Annette Peacock's stellar writing. #ECMFirst100 #ECM
One of my favorite Kenny Wheeler was the 1977 lyrically lush #ECM release Deer Wan with:
Kenny Wheeler – trumpet, flugelhorn
Jan Garbarek – tenor , soprano saxophone
John Abercrombie – electric guitar, mandolin
Dave Holland – bass
Jack DeJohnette – drums

Keith Jarrett — ‘The Köln Concert’
Step 23 in my #ecmodyssey is ECM 1064/65. One of maybe two actual hit albums the label has ever released. And the previous owner did not take very good care of this copy. All of which helps to explain why it only cost me 25c.
