Other Minds Records produces a select catalog of contemporary music exploring areas seldom touched upon by mainstream institutions. We release new works by contemporary and 20th Century composers. We also re-release selected recordings of exceptional value that are hard to find or otherwise unavailable. Making this music accessible to the public is an integral part of our mission, and the proceeds from the sales are used to further our work as new music archivists and advocates. The Other Minds Records catalog is distributed through The Business, Soundohm, Shame File Music, and AudioMoves.

Our Latest Release

Morton Feldman Christian Wolff Wendy Eisenberg The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar

Morton Feldman, Christian Wolff, Wendy Eisenberg: The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar
Available now as a 12″ 45 RPM Vinyl Disc and Digital Download

The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar is a new limited-edition 12” 45 RPM vinyl disc of music by Morton Feldman and Christian Wolff, performed by Wolff and Wendy Eisenberg. Side A features two performances of Feldman’s The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar, written for Wolff in 1966. On his way to perform The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar at Yale, Wolff’s guitar was stolen from his car, along with the only copy of Feldman’s score. In 2002, when the music archive of KPFA was being digitized by Other Minds, a recording of Wolff’s 1966 performance of the piece in San Francisco surfaced. This recording is included on Side A of this record, followed by a 2022 recording of the piece by Wendy Eisenberg. Side B includes Eisenberg’s recording of Christian Wolff’s 2004 piece Another Possibility, a homage to The Possibility of a New Work for Electric Guitar using a scrap of notation from that piece found in the Feldman archives at the Sacher Foundation in Basel.
