Keith Rowe on Erstwhile

Source: surround. When, in the summer of 2020, Erstwhile Records founder Jon Abbey mentioned, on a phone call, that he wanted me to write something specifically about Keith Rowe’s series of releases for Erstwhile, initial euphoria was replaced by dread, by the weight of the history I was on the point of examining. It took me more than four years to pull my thoughts and observations together to form this text out of the admiration and respect I feel for both Rowe and Abbey, but as I entered the project’s lengthy gestation period, several sources proved invaluable.

working with Keith Rowe so extensively and deeply on Erstwhile is the professional achievement I’m most proud of in my life, we put out 24 releases containing 39 CDs from 2000-2021. the great Marc Medwin has written about all 24 in a newly posted epic piece on ‘surround’, please check it out.

thrilled to announce possibly the final Erstwhile release for 2025, a spectacular year for the label IMO. this one is an epic achievement, 3 1/2 hours of two brilliant sound creators alone in a room, very happy to share this with the world. Yan Jun/Taku Unami - Old Tales Retold (Erstwhile 105-3)
