Natives Are Restless

split LP
A split album by two masters of 'loud drone music' with an entirely electronic background. Piotrowicz already surprised us with 'Lasting Clinamen' on CD (see review in Vital Weekly 621), and this is now continued with 'Clinamen 3', also recorded using analog modular synthesizer. He plays what seems a loud, looped drone (no doubt repeated within the machine), which is piercingly loud at the start, but just like his great CD, he knows how to create a subtle piece music after that. It grows and it …
Antarctica
RESTOCKED, very last copies...Awesome new arrival, two side-long excursions into monolithic drone-rock in Tony Conrad + Faust vein. David Maranha’s recordings stretch back over 20 years with the Portuguese avant trio Osso Exótico, as well as collaborations with Z’ev and Minit. A followup to Marches Of The New World (2007), Antarctica is made up of two side-long excursions into monolithic drone-rock. In the vein of Tony Conrad & Faust, “Venus In Furs,” La Monte Young and Terry Riley, Maranh…
I Cantori Moderni
Commercially available for the first time, this 1970 library album by Alessandro Alessandroni is the only existing full-length recording of his extraordinary vocal group, I Cantori Moderni, an eight-to-sixteen person choir featuring Edda Dell'Orso, Giulia De Mutiis (Alessandroni's first wife), Gianna Spagnuolo, Augusto Giardino, and Franco Cosacchi, and highlighting, through twelve original themes by Alessandroni, the complex vocal harmonies of the legendary group that lent their voices to the a…
House
Already sold out at source, 'House' is the 2nd official full-length offering by Cleveland, Ohio duo MIST featuring Sam Goldberg (of Radio People) and John Elliott (Emeralds, Outer Space, Imaginary Softwoods etc) after 2009's self-titled debut effort on Amethyst Sunset. A suite consisting of 7 complex, layered compositions shows new progression in composition and melody from the duo. From the lightning fast, bittersweet crescendo of 'Twin Lanes' to the dramatic chord progressions of 'I Can Still …
Resonating Upon Harmonic Ground
Justin Meyers from Minneapolis offer a beautiful track of musique concrete and analog synth. Exploring the interaction between field recordings and simple sine waves, the result is a perfectly balanced suite, where the single elements lose their origins in favour of composition. Edition of 150
Semelles de fondation
Ressuage: Michel Pilz (bass clarinet), Itaru Oki (trumpet, flugelhorn, reeds), Benjamin Duboc (doublebass, voice), Jean-Noël Cognard (drums, objects), Patrick Müller (electrosonic) and Sébastian Rivas (laptop).

The Plain Truth
Originally released by Broken Flag in 1983, this LP reflects the more ambient & spacey side of M.B.'s work as opposed to some of the more "noisy" earlier works. Along with Armaghedon, one of his most interesting works. Hand signed copies, limited stock
Untitled LP
Restock Terrific moody album by guitarist Manuel Mota, experimenting with solo fingerstyle guita. Ultralimited edition, 150 copies only

Polaris
Dutch sax/drums duo Dead Neanderthals aims directly for the jugular with their new album Polaris, an all-acoustic tour de force mastered by the king of noise: Lasse Marhaug. This abrasive duo ventures into more abstract territory, where they firmly uncouple their music from structure, leaving behind any restrictions that the seemingly reasonable combination of sound and rhythm might bring and which results in an unhealthy dose of acoustic noise
The Whole
LP version. Includes an exclusive bonus CD of 30-minute album, The Whole -- mixed by Olivia Block. The Whole might be avant-percussionist Jon Mueller's first album for the Type imprint, but it's far from his scene debut. Working in a plethora of bands for many years (including Collections Of Colonies Of Bees and Volcano Choir with Justin Vernon aka Bon Iver), Mueller has honed his sound to a distinct peak, and over the course of umpteen solo albums and collaborations has cemented his status …
Under The Jaguar Sun
Packaged in a full color custom made book bound 10 panel sleeve. A double vinyl version, "Chalchiuhtlicue" will also be issued with three mixes by Nadja and one mix by Edward Ka-Spel from the 2xCD version. That's right kids! Yes you can mix your own Nadja album! “Night and day, you are the one. Only you beneath the moon or under the Jaguar Sun…” Now you’re messing with a sun of a bitch. Let’s count backwards. The second disc in this set “Quetzalcoatl” diffuses into the air an alien vocabulary of…
Part 3
Inspired by the "GIALLO" film of the same title, Vice Wears Black Hose is the obsessed & fanatical project of Sam McKinlay (The Rita) and Richard Ramirez (Werewolf Jerusalem/Black Leather Jesus). VWBH's dives into the HNW (harsh noise walls) pool and completely drowns the listener in its dense, dark and pure sound. The two long tracks fall in a hardcore noise fashion between all out wall noise and tense roaring harsh noise storm that slowly shift through different deep grains of noise text…
Signaux
Robert Hampson released the exceptional Répercussions earlier this year, now he has followed that up with two more albums, released simultaneously but presented separately. Even though he has become suddenly prolific, both albums are of the utmost quality, and have a distinctly different approach to sound between them. And yes, fans of Loop and Main, there are guitars! On Signaux Hampson sets up a rich tapestry of needle like high frequencies and subtle bass spreads, expertly woven into …
