Pierrot Lunaire - Of Being in Skyless Space
And, since you should listen to everything in the Pierrot Lunaire catalog, here's another one from 2013. Dude's got the Midas Touch.

Pierrot Lunaire - Turn Back the Hands of Time / Lantern Floating Vessel
(Hooker Vision / Fadeaway Tapes, 2011)
Of all the 2011 that I’ve heard now in 2012, Pierrot Lunaire’s two cassettes, Turn Back the Hands of Time and Latern Floating Vessel, have wowed me most. He released another 2011 tape too, Exercise in Futility, but I haven’t listened to that one yet. But I will. I will listen to any- and everything I can find from him (including the new Hooker Vision 7”). Strictly on the basis of these two tape being, well, so weird and weirdly amazing. A mix of blurred vocals, tape manipulation and distorted saxophone, Pierrot Lunaire sounds (particularly on TBtHoT) like The Caretaker’s An Empty Bliss if it were wonkier and infused with the out-jazz dissonance/melancholy of Sean McCann. Which means (if you are familiar with those references—and you should be) it’s really really really really really good, which in turn means that it more than good.
