Blue Lake
On Blue Lake, Don Cherry dissolves borders in real time: a transcendent 1971 Paris trio set with Johnny Dyani and Okay Temiz, now restored by Charly and BYG, where flute, bass and percussion spiral through Native American echoes, Far‑Eastern tonalities and two sprawling, ecstatic journeys past the twenty‑five‑minute mark.
Cholagogues (CD)
First and only 2009 CD reissue on Schoolmap of 1977 LP by honourable trio of improvisers playing all kind of instruments and sound producing devices.
Sweetly Doing Nothing
Few figures within the long, strange arc of American experimental music have occupied terrain quite as singular as Tom Recchion's. Co-founder, in the mid-1970s, of the Los Angeles Free Music Society - the gloriously unruly collective of basement noise-makers, exotica obsessives, tape manipulators, and assembled-instrument visionaries whose lineage runs through Smegma, the Doo-Dooettes, and Le Forte Four - Recchion has spent the subsequent decades assembling one of the most idiosyncratic bodies o…
Astral Disaster
At the turn of the millenium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors!
Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents. Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping …
La vera storia di una macchina inventata
"La Vera Storia di una Macchina Inventata" is a conceptual album built as a surreal sonic narrative. Conceived as a continuous journey rather than a collection of tracks, the album tells the story of an “useless machine” and its inventors, moving through exhibition halls, highways, rest stops and imaginary radio stations. The project was born from an intense period of collective research by Metameccanici, a trio formed by Angelo Trabace, Alessandro Trabace and Sebastiano De Gennaro. Working betw…
Hubris
** 2026 Repress ** First released in 2016 and long out of print, Hubris has come to feel like a pivot in Oren Ambarchi’s catalogue - the moment when his fascination with groove, repetition and ensemble friction finally detonated into something both overwhelming and weirdly precise. This new edition gives that record the sonic treatment it always deserved. Working from the original mixes, mastering engineer Joe Talia revisits the album with what can only be called forensic care, teasing out layer…
Let Me Perish Without Return: Lament and Longing from the Fading Russian Empire, 1889-1917
Tip Our next release with Gary Sullivan's Bodega Pop project - rooted in a passion for digging for music in bodegas and cell-phone stores across NYC's boroughs. This edition focuses in on early recordings found in Russian neighborhoods in Brooklyn & Queens. "At the turn of the last century, the Russian Empire stood at a crossroads, caught between the weight of its imperial past and the promise of a radically altered future. Recorded during a period of profound cultural transformation and unrest,…
The World Is But a Place of Survival: Ethiopian Begena Songs
The begena is a ten-stringed lyre central to Ethiopia’s Amharic heritage and Orthodox Tewahido Church. Reserved for spiritual music, it is revered for its mythical origins and unique buzzing sound. Symbolically crafted, the begena is believed to ward off evil and connect players to the divine.

Iivana Mišukka
Death Is Not The End present a further volume of Arja Kastinen's eerie amalgamations of 110 year old wax cylinders with her own meticulously transcribed takes, this time focussing in on Armas Otto Väisänen's field recordings of kantele player Iivana Mišukka (b. 1861 d.1919).
Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide CD
"Impressioni Organizzate di Ansie Liquide" is an immersive, languid realm, filled with elegant, poetic beauty, that bristle with unknown elements and the lingering potential of danger. Andrea Marutti and Carlo Giordani have created an album that simultaneously drowns the ear and fortifies it with breaths of fresh air. A remarkably sensitive reminder of the creative potentialities that rest at the heart of electroacoustic, concrete, and field recording based musics, doubling as a vision of their …
Echolocation
**Natural vinyl with exclusive RISO reproductions of Pamela Z posters from the 1980s / 1990s. Print set includes four 8.5x11" prints in a stamped envelope, hand-assembled in Brooklyn** "Echolocation is the debut album by Pamela Z, the pioneering Bay Area intermedia composer and performance artist. Written and recorded over three years, and self-released and distributed on cassette in 1988, Echolocation is a genre-defying document of Z’s earliest experiments with live voice and delay, and the imp…
Radiance
“Radiance” is the first album of solo piano improvisations from Keith Jarrett in a decade. The last such was “La Scala”, recorded 1995, released 1997. (In between, in 1999, Jarrett issued the home recording “The Melody At Night With You”, a solo album of standards and folk songs). Four years ago, Jarrett told interviewers it was unlikely he would return to solo piano performance. Having been sidelined for several seasons by illness, he had attempted two solo concerts in Japan in the autumn of 19…
DronosWalze / Dron
With DronosWalze / Dron, Conrad Schnitzler revisits and redefines the drone form, crafting a dual album that foregrounds his singular approach to electronic minimalism. These expansive pieces radiate immersion and mechanical elegance - each a testament to Schnitzler’s restless exploration and uncompromising sonic vision.
Bora Boreas
*100 copies limited edition* This album came together across different moments and shifting moods, moving in opposite directions and never fully settling much like the sudden, restless bursts of a bora wind. Each track belongs to a different time and a different inner weather, carrying its own distance and temperature. Within these shifting winds were the quiet weights of regret, the faint traces of shame, and the strange urge to believe without question in certain things, even when nothing felt…
Problemi d'Oggi
** Much needed reissue ** Don't let the name mislead you! The enigmatic M. Zalla is one of the numerous aliases of the italian maestro Piero Umiliani who, during his period of fascination for psychedelic and electronic atmospheres, started to compose a good number of musical portraits dedicated, as the title reveals, to the problems of his time. In the early '70s, Italians were worried about the mafia, terrorism, and social conflicts; and one can sense that the music represents these anxieties i…
Follie del Divino Spirito Santo
Huge Tip! 300 copies. Originally issued in 1978 by Cetra, Follie Del Divino Spirito Santo emerges from a singular moment in Antonio Infantino's artistic practice - a moment when his early immersion in international Beat circles and avant-garde gestural music had crystallized into something entirely his own: a ritualistic and shamanic engagement with the musical traditions of Southern Italy.
From 1964 onward, Infantino had moved through collaborative circles with Vittorio Gelmetti, Sylvano Bussot…
Troupe Asnimer & J.H. Burch
A trance-inducing journey into Morocco’s Ait Bouguemez valley: multi-instrumentalist J.H. Burch joins the all-female Troupe Asnimer to revive Amazigh oral traditions. Their hypnotic choral songs, enriched with global instrumentation, bridge ancestral ritual and contemporary sound.
Star Rover
Visionary Walter Maioli and electronic innovator John Zandijik’s 1980s late-night sessions fuse ancient flutes and cutting-edge technology, creating a cosmic soundscape that bridges ethnomusicology, psychedelia, and electronic experimentation.
Uranus - Tibetan Singing Bowls
** Edition of 300 copies ** In the late 1980s, Klaus Wiese (Popol Vuh) deepened his connection with Tibetan culture. The result is a series of works solely dedicated to the universal purity of the Singing Bowls. Uranus, perhaps the most rigorous of these, is an intense meditation on the trans-personal sphere of the VI chackra. The music becomes like a single harmonic chant, the reflection of a constant flow of divine light, which transforms the psyche and dilates the secret passages of the hear…
