Per festeggiare 25 anni di attività la britannica Burning Shed torna alla mission delle proprie origini: stampare spartani cd-r su richiesta e a tiratura limitata contenenti documenti audio inediti, rari o sconosciuti ai più. Favorendo per questa occasione hopperiani e machinisti: Morbida Macchina - ovvero Theo Travis, Hugh Hopper, Bernhard Woestheinrich e Tim Bowness - ripresi dal vivo a Norwich nel 2002.

A one-off 42 minute performance for the Burning Shed festival in Norwich 2002 consisting of three improvisations by Soft Machine alumni Theo Travis and Hugh Hopper with Bernhard Woestheinrich (Centrozoon) and no-man’s Tim Bowness (who performs vocal loops on one of the pieces). Audio taken from an original desk recording by Andy Butler, edited by Tim Bowness and mastered by Brian Hulse in April 2026. As part of Burning Shed's 25th anniversary celebrations, an online on-demand cdr in reverse card packaging featuring the label's signature ink stamp.

Anthony Garone di Make Weird Music parla con Leonardo Pavkovic a proposito del MoonJune Festival in programma a Teramo dal 22 al 25 luglio prossimi: "This year’s festival brings together an absurdly good lineup of progressive rock, jazz fusion, Canterbury scene legends, avant-garde musicians, and MoonJune family members from around the world. Leonardo shares the story behind the festival, why Teramo is such a meaningful location, and what makes this event more than a normal music festival. We discuss Gong with Steve Hillage, Soft Machine with Gary Husband, Osanna with David Jackson, Diego Amador, Markus Reuter Truce, Dewa Budjana, Nicolas Meier, Beledo, Boris Savoldelli, Stephan Thelen Fractal Trio, Derek Shulman, and many more."
