Pinche Madre
2008 release ** Limited to 100 copies. "Pinche Madre is the 2008 creation from Remoteband, released by Russian label Abgurd in a limited edition CDR. To say any more, or try to give further information would be futile. Mainly because there is not much to find, even by scouring the internet there’s no webpage, MySpace or Facebook. Hard to believe in this technological age, but Remoteband has appeared to go off the grid by not even being there in the first place.So what do we have? Well we have…
Garbage
2006 release ** "Featuring: Masonic Youth, Flutwacht, Fever Spoor, OVO, Dr Simple, Maskinanlegg, Screening vs. Zyrtax, GX Juppiter Larsen, Invader From Mars vs. Zyrtax, Bloody Cum vs. Zyrtax, Odal, Nova-Sak vs. Zyrtax, Zwarte Kat.
Days Are Not Days
2009 release ** "When an improvised recording presents itself as a meteor, some foreign object from another civilization, like Days Are Not Days does, we should rejoice that it has entered our atmosphere and like a bolide, exploded upon contact. Okay, this recording by Portuguese saxophonist and flutist Paulo Chagas, and guitarists Samuel Hällkvist, from Sweden, and Stephan Sieben, from Denmark, isn't a bomb. It is, though, an improvised explosive device, pieced together from chamber music debri…
Wander
2009 release ** "In the Winter of 2000 Beequeen decided not to release drone music anymore. In order to facilitate their need to create music in the ambient field, Wander was formed. Wander uses organ/keyboard sounds as well as environmental recordings to create instrumental sound scapes. "
Enso
2007 release ** "Although the cover art for Enso is strikingly similar to recent 12k releases, there the similarity ends. With Enso, Luigi Turra has conjured up an organic and contemplative three-track epic, that resonates on subsequent listenings. Infused with Japanese sonic architectures and rigorous reductionist principles, this is a deeply meditative world of gently plucked instruments, and faded atmospherics, peppered with closely focussed tinklings and crystalline shards to add texture. Be…
Fifteen Point Nine Grams
2009 release ** "SLW is a multinational group that can claim to include in its ranks some of the most respected voices in today’s improvisation community. The four musicians have worked together on occasions since their first meeting in October 2006 and presented their debut eponymous recording through formed records in early 2008. Fifteen point nine grams picks up from where that album left off, introducing even greater dynamic tension to their ever-tranquil field of sound. Recorded live at the…
Lepiej Nie
2008 release ** Very active noisician / improviser since the 90s in Paris, JZ aka Zaraz Wam Zagram plays / played in many bands and is the core member of the free improv / noise ensemble Friponnes de Porc.
Tsaca Tsap
20014 release ** "Estonian pop music is relatively rare to find north of the Gulf of Finland. In fact, Ramo Teder, who performs under the name Pastacas, also moved to Finland after making his album Tsaca Tsap. But more than the Finnish rural landscape that opens out of Teder's window, the songs on Pastacas' third album have been influenced by his musical background. A childhood spent in music schools and the influence of a jazz guitarist father clearly belong to Tsaca Tsap, which Ramo has mainly…
Voices Without A Sound
2001 release ** "All tracks on this album was recorded live during nightsessions. This album submerges a listener into the space of dream-like images and forms, makes him feel like somnambulist in the full-moon night in some haunted land. Using the treated voice samples intertwined with ambient and meditative structures, NA-DHA builds an unreal hall of sound mirrors reflecting different elements of this illusory world. 8 untitled tracks of wonderfull dream-magik-ambient."
Selene
Limited edition of 500 on cloudy white vinyl. Atmosphere and gravity lean into each other. They are simultaneously expansive, and anchoring. They hold us, and lend a sense of perspective. Akira Kosemura & Lawrence English provide a stability and a knowingness which is essential in the absolute, and yet we can't help but find ourselves gazing upward, outward and reaching towards that which sits outside those things and ways we know. Selene is a record about that this lingering desire for that whi…
Lo Scopone Scientifico (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Quartet Records, in collaboration with Camille 3000 and the Piero Piccioni estate, presents the premiere CD release of a delightful score by Piero Piccioni (Fumo Di Londra, Colpo Rovente, Camille 2000, I Giovani Tigri) for Luigi Comencini’s film LO SCOPONE SCIENTIFICO, a 1973 Italian comedy-drama starring Alberto Sordi, Silvana Mangano, Joseph Cotten and Bette Davis. The story is about an aging and wealthy American woman who journeys to Rome each year with her chauffeur, George, to play the card…
Séance On A Wet Afternoon
Quartet Records is proud to present a brand-new recording conducted by Fernando Velázquez of another film score that is either lost or inaccessible – in this case no fewer than five films scores by John Barry: a suspense classic from the ’60s, a film adaptation of a classic play, and three television movies starring Katharine Hepburn. John Barry would have turned 90 on November 3, 2023. The unforgettable music of this five-time Oscar winner continues to be celebrated around the world, and indeed…
Vedo Nudo / Dove Vai Tutta Nuda? (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Edition of 350 copies. Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM, presents an Armando Trovajoli double-header with two infectious scores for classic Italian comedies by Dino Risi and Pasquale Festa Campanile, both released in 1969.
Vedo Nudo is a portmanteau film directed by Dino Risi and starring Nino Manfredi in seven episodes of erotically charged madness. After the opening song, “Let’s Find Out” by Isabel Bond (accompanied by a suitably Bond-inspired titles sequence), the various episodes …
The Soul Of All Natural Things
Linda Perhacs’ Parallelograms was created in the heart of hippy country, LA’s Topanga Canyon, by a dental hygienist who was inspired by nature and by the cultural revolution going on around her. When Parallelograms was finished, it sounded like a masterpiece, but the label had pressed it so poorly, sales were non-existent. Obscurity beckoned. But in the internet age obscurity can be discreetly transformed into a kind of niche immortality. By 2003, Parallelograms had become a cult album.
Slowly, …
Jashumon

Caesar's intended pleasure-centers. Disturbing, but in the end truly innovative, this soundtrack is as certified gateway to the underworld in the vein of classic by Faust, Cosmic Jokers or early Amon Düül.
"This mighty soundtrack for Shuji Terayama's nihilistic movie of the same name contains all the elements nec…

Live Electronic Music
"Jeff Carney's sophomore effort for audioFile (1989) could not have been criticized were it to have remained in similar territory as the electronic wall of sound he had created on Imperfect Space Journeys. Instead, he created a more sparse, evolving tapestry of analog timbres. Using an exclusively vintage analog arsenal and recording live without overdubbing, Carney pushed forward with new ideas and uniquely developing sweeps of filter madness. The side-long 'Questions (Unanswered)' is immensely…
Superior State
*300 copies limited release* Superior State is the second Leitmotiv Limbo album released by Port Adelaide’s De la Catessen Records, after the 2022 CD Spiritual Disturbance. This time, Leitmotiv Limbo’s isolationist studies have been bumped to vinyl, which feels like the perfect format for these twelve miniatures.
