EDITION RZ recommendations

[FreakAnimalFinland]

In classical music topic was mentioned. I recall it has been talked before AND that some people already advised what to get, but can't find it with search function. Maybe it just happened in real life? I guess it must have...

Since early 90's, many noise labels carried their titles. You could check out german industrial labels or Americans like RRR, and everybody seemed to have CD's and LP's available for pretty decent prices. Now, I have not seen any noise label touch them. Not to mention industrial ones.
I do only have couple of RZ items. Xenakis 2xCD for example, is great value for money, even if that's priced 26 euros. But I'm not wealthy enough to give it a try to 20+ euro CD's. I'm lured by the compilations of 50's electro-acoustic etc..  I recall they released some Finnish material as well? At least judging by the names from some old Artware catalogue.

in my opinion all of the LP's are great, with my favourite ones being the two Dumitrescu's, the Spahlinger, Lachenmann (has some intense violent string pieces), and Bertoncini (great version of Cage's Cartridge Music).

The Finnish LP you have in mind is also very good but long sold out unfortunately.
One side of this LP was by Parick Kosk who also has a solo CD ('Mondweiß') on ERZ which comes highly recommended, this was probably my favourite release of 2009. It's a collection of his compositions with pieces from 1981 to 2008 (including the piece from the Finland LP). Really delicate and non-formulaic electroacoustic music like i have not heard it before.

Other favourite CD's from the catalogue are the already mentioned Jani Christou and Iannis Xenakis discs, and the Giacinto Scelsi CD, Jakob Ullmann's 'Voice, Book & Fire', and Gottfried Michael König. Those, to me, are all essentiell and very special.
But there are only very few Edition RZ releases i don't like. It's a very well curated label and his tastes are not far away from mine. But sometimes he gets paid to do a release.... so hands off the McGuire CD, this is really boring...

i'm not here to promote but in case you really want to buy something the best option in terms of availability and price is the tochnit aleph / rumpsti pumsti mailorder - http://mailorder.rumpsti-pumsti.com/index.php?categoryID=268

[Henrik III]

Really a top label, seems to be able to pick up particularly good stuff on their releases. In addition to already mentioned, I really like Josef Anton Riedl 2CD (broad stylistic range, tape collage, sound poetry etc.), Nuova consonanza (creepy mostly acoustic improv), Gaber's 2CD (slow, "spectral" violin scraping...looking forward to hear the new one), Lang's "Einfalt.Stille" (cold, slow and quiet stuff, my favorite from this fantastic composer). Haven't heard the Tudor 2CD but I guess worth to get just for the "Variations II"!

Now, I have not seen any noise label touch them. Not to mention industrial ones. 

It's nice to see that Forced Exposure still carries at least a few RZ discs.
