1000
This 45 rpm 12'' called « 1000 » is a collection of Roxy's unreleased New Wave and synth-infused tracks still signed by her oh so particular voice. Sometimes punchy, sometimes languorous and velvety, a common point all the tracks have is a strength that seems never to leave her. Also noticeable is the reprise of the mythical and mysterious synth-pop band Nine Circles, who else better than Roxy could tell us « What's There Left »?.

Whiter than white
The title Whiter than white sounds like an advert for soap. Adverts and soap are precisely what Les Belles Noïseuses blame. Or even more precisely what they represent: consumption, conformity, economic liberalism. However, don't expect to get a speech from Les Belles Noïseuses. Only feelings, emotions, dreams and nightmares are conveyed through their refined musical structure. The doom-jazz double-bass reminds the best from Mick Karn. The minimalist guitar scrapes melody to the bone, to the aton…
Next
LP version. "While they have collaborated a good many times, Next is the first recorded evidence of Danish guitarist (or more properly Bastardist) Jørgen Teller playing with American ex-pat multi-instrumentalist Mark Cunningham. The pair both have long histories on the fringes of known sounds. I first heard Teller as a member of the dizzily freakoid Tzarina Q Cut and Cunningham's decades of musical adventurism with Mars, Don King, Bestia Ferida, Blood Quartet, etc. have been well documented, not…
Parallèles
* Deluxe Edition limited and numbered to 99 copies in 200g vinyl and metallic sleeve * 1976, Vince Taylor, the Black Archangel of Rock’n’roll, agrees to come and record “Rock’n’Roll Station”, a piece of futuristic clinking of a bicycle wheel. Other sessions contrary to custom, a pigsty with microphones mired in the middle of unruly pigs, towels shaken by Pierre Bastien in the middle of this “bric-a-brac” a noisy piece in homage to Luigi Russolo repertoire reorganized by bonuses and unpublished …
Catalogue
* Deluxe Edition limited and numbered to 99 copies in 200g vinyl and metallic sleeve * 1979, the year of the album Catalogue. Jac Berrocal and his “Marquises of disorder” make the guitars rattle in primrose-sprayed vomit, patchwork of uncontrollable slows, furious accordion (Claude Parle) and martial rocks. Kind of “Micro-cinemas put end-to-end”, a maelstrom of cries and saturation which, paradoxically, an album that is worth the respect of the Punks and the contempt of jazz purists. Berrocal i…
Landform Erosion
Landform Erosion finds producer duo Fujako - Jonathan Uliel Saldanha (aka HHY) and Nicolas Esterle (aka Ripit) - returning to the seismic terrain of their 2009 debut Landform and subjecting it to a slow, deliberate collapse. Where the original album carved out a singular zone of “unlooped hip hop and telluric dub from the geological strata,” this companion piece treats those tracks as unstable rock faces to be cracked, dissolved and reassembled. What emerges is less a remix record than a process…
Music for air raids V2.0
LP album, numbered and stamped vinyl edition limited to 250 copies. A different version from ' Music for Air Raids ', recomposed for the vynil format and entirely remastered. Comes above our heads the distant roar of ' Music for air raids v2.0 ' as a prelude to the waves of polyrhythmic drums and unremitting guitars, of powerful and constructive poundings that will penetrate us to the core throughout the album. As this album is a tour de force end-to-end, with raids of drums, persussions and gui…
Le Soleil, la Mer, le Coeur et les Etoiles
Edition of 300 copies on black vinyl. Released as part of the series 'Collection Archives Des Musiques Industrielles DeFrance', here are two previously unissued tracks from 1982. This music like all first works of Etant Donnes was made without any instrument or effect but is the fruit of a long work on a raw sound material coming only from nature field recordings.
Etant Donnés are two brothers, Eric and Marc Hurtado, who founded this duet in 1980. They realised music, films (from 1982…

Autoportrait
Reissue of a cassette released in 1991 by La Légende des voix. A sound self-portrait harsh and tortured also using some texts.Brume (Christian Renou) is a prolific French musique concrete composer/sound sculptor who has won himself a place of his own with his crossover between sound collages, electro-acoustics and noise. His compositions rely on dense, rapid-fire montage and wed cacophony and dynamics, emphasizing both the elements of discontinuity and continuity. Why the nickname « Brume »?: he…
Aéroproducts
Rotorelief presents a reissue of Alésia Cosmos' Aéroproducts, originally released in 1985, with bonus material. In the '80s, Alésia Cosmos was one of those pioneering groups that invented a handful of things: uprooted electro, pop-shifted funk. With some synths, rhythm boxes, magnetic tapes, crazy guitars and hallucinated voices, they rocked the underground for four years, with two albums, playing live in France and Europe. The dazzling epic of the magic combo has become legendary in the margin …
Caetano Veloso (A Little More Blue)
*2026 repress* Lilith present a reissue of Caetano Veloso's Caetano Veloso (A Little More Blue), originally issued in 1971. Often referred to as "Brazil's unofficial poet laureate" and the "Bob Dylan of Brazil", this heavyweight of Brazilian music was also a young revolutionary who used his music to protest against Brazil's oppressive military regime. This protest music, which became known as tropicalia, first earned Veloso a stint in jail, but by the time this dour album was released in 1971, i…
