Secret Things Of The Outside World
Tip! Mold is back, now on vinyl! This collaboration between two modern masters of tape noise unites their forces in a live recording session, resulting in their most uncompromising and relentless harsh noise album to date. Primal, saturated textures collide with howling, strangled feedback from dying microphones, creating a whirlwind of harsh, broken, and distorted micro-universe crackling with short circuits. It feels as though the tape itself is melting under the weight of intense, overdriven …
Harps of the Ancient Temples
2022 Repress Very often, the greatest artists just don’t fit. They stand out there on their own, and fall in strange, unexpected zones, often occupied only by themselves. This is was certainly the case for the American harpist, Gail Laughton, who’s lone, the 1969 LP, Harps of the Ancient Temples - long championed and hunted by record collectors - is finally receiving the vinyl reissue treatment after roughly a half century out of print. A truly stunning and visionary piece of work with almost no…
Forever Changes
Forever Changes is the third studio album by the American rock band Love, released by Elektra Records in November 1967. It was the final album recorded by the original band lineup; after its completion, Bryan Maclean left the group acrimoniously and the other members were dismissed by leader Arthur Lee. The album saw the group embrace a subtler folk-oriented sound and orchestration, while primary songwriter Lee explored darker themes alluding to mortality and his creeping disillusionment with th…
Electronics
One of the most electrifying records we've ever encountered from the power of the Nobuo Tsukahara's Sharps & Flats – a collection that infuses fantastic keyboards into the group's signature horn-heavy sound! The set features an incredible mix of Fender Rhodes and organ, frequently taking the spotlight as the lead solo instrument over the rich backings, creating a particularly delightful experience on the tracks with Rhodes! The tunes are absolutely fantastic, bringing a fresh and funky vibe that…
Sensational Jazz '70: Vol. 1/2
The agony of hard bop, the rise of jazz-rock, and the emergence of free jazz. The definitive live recording that captures the chaos and climax of jazz in Japan. Japan's jazz scene around 1970 is very interesting. The agony of hard bop, the rise of jazz-rock, and the emergence of free jazz. New music and values were born one after another, and chaos was reached, and up-and-coming musicians ran at a speed that shook off the meter.
This album "Sensational Jazz '70 Vol. 1/2" is famous as a live soun…
Evenings At The Village Gate
Temporary offer A long-lost live recording featuring one of John Coltrane and Eric Dolphy's 1961 sets at New York's Village Gate has been unearthed for release this summer. Evenings at the Village Gate was recorded in the summer before Coltrane's legendary slate of November 1961 dates at the Village Vanguard, with a similar quintet lineup: the short-lived tandem of Coltrane and Dolphy alongside drummer Elvin Jones, pianist McCoy Tyner and bassist Reggie Workman.
While the trailblazing Village Va…
The Persistence Of Memory (Early Tapes 1990-1993)
Palo Alto is a French group formed in Paris, France in 1989 by Jacques Barbéri, Denis Frajerman, Philippe Masson and Philippe Perreaudin. In their early interviews the group insisted on their musical filiation with Tuxedomoon, and on drawing their inspiration from Made to Measure, a Crammed Discs label. They would later make explicit their interest in bands such as Art Zoyd, The Legendary Pink Dots, Coil, The Residents, Can or Cabaret Voltaire. Science fiction in all its forms is a leitmotiv in …
Variants
“Variants” is a new chapter of Capricorni Pneumatici an esoteric post industrial project that started in Italy during the nineties. First of all you will be caught by the nice cover recalling Flemish painter Hyeronimus Bosh. You may see it as an introduction to the dark disquieting spaces crossed by CP during the 7 tracks of this work. The sound generated by live electronics, percussions and treated guitars subtly flows from one track to the other trying to overcome the opacity of the world of s…
Geografia Invisibile
“Geografia Invisibile” (Invisible Geography) is the second CD of Scosse Elettriche for ADN label . Riccardo Sinigaglia (piano, flute and electronics) and Davide Zolli (percussions) keep on doing the music they shared with Ariel Kalma in the LP “Three blokes in Ameno” (ADN DN9 010) and with tabla player Federico Sanesi in a recent tour of Northern Italy. The CD consists of two long suites called “Il cammino delle complicazioni” (the path of complications) 30 minutes long and “ Le costellazioni sc…
Il Y A Les Ombres
Laurent Pernice delivers an album of light and shades. “Il y a les ombres” is a sonorous trip to the limits of perception, a place where voices murmur fragmented truths and where instruments, not used in a traditional way, dig the layers of unexplored territories. This new work (of the old member of Nox and current member of Palo Alto) summons the voices of Alan Dalmasio (Palo Alto) Judith Juillerat, Black Sifichi, Heloise Brezillon and Laura Garrato (Magma). This is not only a play of vocal con…
Lake of Fire
Italian duo Capricorni Pneumatici started in 1987, taking their name from an Aleister Crowley book. This CD is part of their 30th Anniversary and they have produced two new albums to mark the occasion. This album, "Lake Of Fire", presents an ambient and ritual world view that sinks deeply into female vocals. 71 minutes of music using percussion, voices, bowed harp guitar, electronics, music concrete and treatments. Digipak.
Dissections
Here the work of the last 4 years by Capricorni Pneumatici. A double CD with 8 medium/long sound dissections recorded in Sweden, UK and Southern Italy. Dissection 1 is a frizzling track based on Tibetan bowl, maracas and music machine. Dissection 2 is a very long suite introducing low, calm waves of a forgotten sea that you should listen in a dark room. Dissection 3 is shorter with the addition of percussive echoed noises. Dissection 4 has a harsher sounds produced by synth, el guitar, tubular …

Broken Saxophones
Dominique Grimaud was a member of an historical French underground group called Camizole. This group of mainly self-taught musicians started in the seventies as a vocal ensemble progressively introducing a growing number of instruments that gave them the possibility to create an unique anarchic musical chaos. Their original sound could be juxtaposed with Faust , Lard Free or even Urban Sax . Well, you will find the original spirit of Camizole in this work. The title “Broken Saxophones” gives yo…
Ottomani
Ottomani is a project conceived by ADN and four of their friend musicians. Riccardo Sinigaglia, who had his debut album "Riflessi" on ADN. Ruggero Tajè, who made his first solo CD "Antologica 1976-1999) on ADN. Silvio Linardi & Matteo Uggeri who also had many releases on ADN.

After that the procedded track was returned to creator who was in ch…
Appunti per una resurrezione (Book)
*OBS!!! book in Italian language* "E la società e il mangiare – è tutto buono – gente che si sposa, onestà e tasse, bevete che alla fine è gratis – amare chiunque – misteri e fastidi. Io rimango perché non ho nulla da fare, né di meglio né di peggio. E aspetto sempre un incontro, un lampo, qualsiasi cosa che mi riporti alla vita."
Frozen Silence
*2025 stock* Frozen Silence is the third ECM release from alto saxophonist Maciej Obara’s Polish-Norwegian quartet bringing the story forward from Unloved and Three Crowns – and perhaps its strongest musical statement to date. Alert interactivity is the hallmark of the group’s approach in a programme of new Obara compositions inspired by the starkly dramatic landscapes of the mountainous Karkonosze region in south-west Poland. All four players make decisive contributions to the music. The pieces…
Compassion
*2025 stock* Pianist-composer Vijay Iyer follows his 2021 ECM disc Uneasy — the first to showcase his trio featuring bassist Linda May Han Oh and drummer Tyshawn Sorey — with Compassion, another album in league with these two gifted partners. The New York Times captured the special qualities of this group, pointing to the trio’s flair for playing “with a lithe range of motion and resplendent clarity… while stoking a kind of writhing internal tension. Crucial to that balance is their ability to c…
Call On The Old Wise
*2025 stock* With Call on the old Wise Nitai Hershkovits delivers an entrancing solo album. In this largely improvised solo rendering, the pianist draws from broad influences, ranging from his extensive work in jazz contexts and cutting-edge contemporary explorations to his background in classical music. This immaculate balance of idioms gives rise to an abundance of colours and timbres, explored by a pianist, who has successfully forged his very own voice as improviser and shape-designer.

The Living Mountain
*2025 stock* Austrian composer Thomas Larcher’s new album features premiere recordings of three strongly contrasting works. The Times has hailed Larcher’s music as a world “of haunting landscapes and dreams, stylistically disparate but fused by the composer’s astonishing ear and quizzical attitude to traditional forms”, a description borne out by the compositions here. The Living Mountain, for soprano and ensemble, draws upon the memoir of the Scottish poet and nature writer Nan Shepherd. Unerzä…
