Homage to the Square Wave
RESTOCKED last copies, Eleh present their fourth vinyl-only full-length, Homage to the Square Wave. Featuring two sidelong tracks each clocking-in at over 20 minutes, Homage is dedicated to the highly influential artist Josef Albers. Eleh return with their battery of vintage modular analog gear to produce a recording of pure tone, pure sound, pure volume and pure analog. Side A features 'Black,' a slowly enveloping mass of intensely throbbing low end, activating the flight response. Time passes …
Last Days III - Atlantic City
Following volume I (8mm, 2008) and II (Presto?!. 2009), and previously released in a super small cassette edition on Tulip, Stefano Pilia's Last Days III is finally available in a new remastered one sided LP edition. The intuitions of the first two chapters of this series of 'Last days' shine in 'Atlantic City' in all their beauty. Stefano’s touch is so warm and gentle, always unique in creating that feeling of soft, warm nostalgia, loud, and passionate as he’s strumming his strings with …
Not For Nobody
Not For Nobody is the third solo album from Chicago's Scott Tuma. Originally released on CD in 2008 by the Digitalis label, Immune is happy to present a first time vinyl edition of this essential work featuring new artwork by Chris Koelle. Not For Nobody was greeted with critical acclaim upon it's release in 2008 and was the much needed follow up to Tuma's solo albums Hard Again (2001, Truckstop) and The River 1 2 3 4 (2003, Truckstop). Since the release of Not For Nobody, Tuma has released t…
Harry Smith
New LP - first ever vinyl - from this great west coast drone group with a magical sÇance in tribute to occultist, archivist, artist and visionary film-maker Harry Smith, performed as a live soundtrack to his films. Mile-deep tones that you could swim in flux through intricately populated blankets of brain-cushioning foo with that classic aircraft-hangar-filled-with-white-light feel. Edition of only 300 copies with paste-on art.
Intermezzo
I met Richard in 2004 on a crazy tour in Australia (Oren Ambarchi's last What is Music?). He was a founding member of The Sun City Girls but he came out to play solo. Instantly we were entranced by his playing, so many beautiful elements of why I love guitar come through in his music and presence, without floating around in genre space at all. Here on the road with Kevin Drumm, Dead C, Residents, Gang Gang Dance, Black Dice, etc amongst this insane lineup Richard ended up supporting Pan S…
Ni maître, Ni marteau
A key ingredient in disappearing ink, THYMOLPHTHALEIN describes the working method of this brilliant French-Australian quintet Leader Anthony Pateras conceived a detailed hour long structural premise for the group’s first tour in 2009, creating a masterful pastiche of richly dynamic, timbrally devastating explorations for electro-acoustic ensemble, melded by his own distinctive prepared piano and analogue electronics.Natasha Anderson combines buzzing slabs of electro-acoustic sound with fr…
Conrad & Sohn
Gorgeous one-off private-press released in 1981 by one-time Tangerine Dream / Kluster associate Conrad Schnitzler, which was given only to friends and family. Tracks 6-11 are pretty odd, even for Schnitzler, with its pitched up vocals & arbitrary lo-fi synth drippings; but the real prize are tracks 1-5 featuring his teenage son Gregor on electric bass and completely fried vocals (in English no less) as run through Conrad's massive modular synth rig.Limited to 500 pieces. Unplayed archival copy
Gilbert Artman's Lard Free
Lard Free is French psychedelic minimalism band, formed around drummer and keyboards player Gilbert Artman. He was the only constant member of the band on their few next albums. Music on their debut album is perfectly composed angular rhythm structures-based synth/rhythm compositions with free-jazz sax improvs over them. All this mix sounds heavy, spacey, psychedelic, minimalistic - and excellent. I am not sure if this music could be labelled as "krautrock" , or let say - it's a French krautroc…
Life coach
‘Life Coach’ is the debut solo album from Phil Manley (of Trans Am, Oneida, The F*cking Champs, Jonas Reinhardt). This instrumental album will certainly appeal to fans of the aforementioned bands as well as those into the classic works of Kraftwerk, Neu!, and Harmonia as well as modern Kosmische / ambient music from the likes of Arp, Mountains, The Alps and Type Records. The CD version comes in a four panel mini-LP style gatefold package. (Boomkat)
Untitled (3rd Album)
VINYL FORMAT. Reissued! Rising from the silence, shaking the muck of level-Z rock and roll detritus from their feet, Royal Trux returned to action in October of 1992 with an untitled album, their third. It had been two years since they'd vanished into the negative zone with Twin Infinitives, an ultimate left-turn that appeared to have no endgame. For Untitled, Royal Trux strung together eight pieces of varying vintage that clearly communicated their rock and roll desires with the most direct app…
Mag Magazin 6
Obscure early tape, very thought to find nowadays: this tape is rich with texture and dynamics that make for a stunning listen, its details are intricate resonation and transformations of the sound sculptures in the environment

Okkulte Stimmen - Mediale Musik: Recordings Of Unseen Intelligen
This 3cd boxset is a fantastical document of parapsychological research throughout the 20th Century, with recordings of purported demonic possession, glossolalia, precognition, poltergeists, and the already well documented Electric Voice Phenomenon. The latter had been the subject of research by noted parapsychologists Raymond Cass and Freidrich Jurgensen, whose work was collected on several cds released on the Touch label, one of which was the AQ perennial favorite The Ghost Orchid. The first d…
Der Meister und Margarita
It is in itself a brilliant achievement to transform this complex religious-philosophical satirical novel from 1930s Moscow into a spellbinding opera. And each setting is imbued with its very special local color, whether it's Satan's ball, the asylum, the evil apartment, or the Place of the Skull: "Höller underpins, surrounds, conveys or impedes the sung and spoken parts by a dramatic theater music of powerful images and driving force, making use of the orchestral range of sounds both moderately…
The Cosmological Eye Trilogy
They call their home studio the Space Room; they name their pieces after galaxies and nebulas; and their cat appears to be an alien. Please act surprised when you learn that this duo from Torino, Italy, plays space music -- not your ordinary brand, though: experimental space music. Maurizio Opalio and Roberto Opalio are exploring the cosmos through epic improvised journeys involving astral percussion, electric astral guitar drones, and space toys. Their territory is somewhere past the fringes of…
Piano Music
JUST ARRIVED, awesome and low priced essential triple CD set with the piano compositions by John Cage (1912–92) regarded as one of the most influential and controversial composers of the 20th century. It is not only his music that this reputation is based on – his ideas were revolutionary, and he cast doubt on the supremacy of European art and music, when it was unchallenged and such views were considered heretic. Cage rejected the status held by harmony, instrumentation and even the devel…

Undercurrents The Hidden Wiring of Modern Music
The Wire magazine has come to be known as the authoritative source on modern music. This collection of essays springs originally from the Undercurrents, and subsequently, the Tangents series of articles that were “thinkpieces” based on 12 basic themes or forces that have and continue to shape modern music. The 19 essays, broken into 4 categories: electrification, occultism, mechanism and freedom, were contributed by some of the most prominent modern music writers and offer insight into ideas a…
