The Second Coming
180 Gram Vinyl - Limited Edition Lenticular Cover. Silver-Tongued Colored Viny. California, 1972. While Anton LaVey held court at his Black House in San Francisco, issuing pronouncements and recording The Satanic Mass for a growing cult of devotees, a more obscure ceremony was being committed to tape somewhere in Los Angeles. No press releases. No magazine profiles. No celebrity weddings or baptisms for the cameras. Just a man named Robert Jamra, an unknown organist, and a series of rituals so b…
Quartet Music Vol. I: LuMiSong
The first time the band that became LuMiSong ever played together was during the Great Lockdown of July 2020. The others wore masks while I stood twenty feet away with the door behind me open to a Gowanus side-street. I hadn’t shared a sound or negotiated an eighth-note with anybody for months and the experience overwhelmed me with emotion. (The most basic facts of collective music-making are the most profound.) We all brought in music to that session and to the many that followed. Matt and Sant…
Colla Voce
What if the blue that I see is different from the blue that you see? This question is an infrastructure for my Afro-Surrealist Anti-Opera, Colla Voce. Often, when we think of Surrealism, we think of subconscious mental states, dreams, nightmares-those unexplored corners of our psyche. But Afro-Surrealism protests: what if that which one calls a ‘dream' is a nightmare to another? What if that which one calls ‘rational' is completely baseless to another? And surely, we must have varying ideas of w…
Dance! Skip! Hop!
The Tomeka Reid Quartet - dance! skip! hop! (OOYH 041) releases February 13 2026 (LP/CD/limited streaming) on Out Of Your Head Records, featuring the steady quartet of Tomeka Reid (cello) with Mary Halvorson (guitar), Jason Roebke (bass), and Tomas Fujiwara (drums). Soon after finishing these compositions in June 2025, Reid realized that much of the music made her want to dance. Inspired by the title of Josh Berman’s stellar A Dance and a Hop, as well as her tendency to skip in public, the title…

Blood Burden
Blood Burden is the debut album from Brooklyn-based saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Alfredo Colón. Deeply rooted in the blues tradition, Alfredo brings harrowingly raw emotion in the form of barely-contained chaos to Blood Burden — a meditation on the interplay of Dominican folklore and Catholic imagery and ethos, and an ode to his immediate family members in the face of intergenerational trauma. Recorded at Figure 8 studios in New York with Lex Korton on piano, Steve Williams on bass, and…

Clamor
*2024 stock* Clamor rethinks the notion of 'women's work' as a space for both collaboration and singular voice. Just as our ensemble is limited and enabled by the written score, so might be individual enunciations of how gender norms limit agency. Clamor utilizes a collective, improvisational vision that prioritizes an intentionally fluid style by employing indeterminacy, navigated by the performers via time-based scores. These principles are balanced with metered notation to shape the overall f…
Conduite Forcée
** Edition of 300. One time pressing. No digital. ** In 1934, Swiss engineers completed the Chandoline Hydroelectric Plant, channeling Alpine water through 16 kilometers of concrete pipe. By 2023, the turbines had stopped. The plant was empty, silent - a cathedral to obsolete energy with perfect acoustics and nothing left to say. Christian Marclay saw an instrument. For the inaugural Biennale Son in 2023, the artist who made his name destroying vinyl in 1980s New York turned the entire hydroelec…
Thrust
* 180 gram vinyl * The cover of Thrust reveals a lot of the album. Herbie's sitting comfortably his spaceship controlled by a synth froman alien world, reachingto the clouds and beyond. Well, that's what his stature was in 1974 - one of the seminal renewers of Jazz by incorporating new electric instruments like theARP synthesizer.
Thrust is the follow up to Head Hunters using the same band except for drummer HarveyMason, who is replaced by Mike Clark, a Jazz great in his own right.
Again, only f…
Spacemen 3 Vinyl - (Extended Edition) (Book)
In Spacemen 3 Vinyl – Extended Edition, Danny Passarella assembles the definitive visual chronicle of Sonic Boom and J Spaceman’s recorded universe: a lavish, full‑colour archive of global pressings, ephemera and new interviews that turns their vinyl trail into a tactile, time‑spanning narrative.
Six Places
London-based musician Luke Cowan delivers his most expansive work yet with ‘Six Places’, a quietly dazzling suite that renders memory, geography and imagination as sound. Across six extended pieces recorded in Ely, Cambridge, York and London, Cowan bends the borders between composition and improvisation, everyday resonance and ensemble interplay, to arrive at a music that feels porous, fragile and strangely luminous. Cowan calls it “a collection of impressions of places. Some are real and some i…
Telegogue
On Telegogue, Charlie Thall detonates a 29‑minute, eleven‑track riot of cartoonishly surreal genre‑mashups that feel born and bred in the infinite remix lab of the digital DIY. Frenetic keys, MIDI drums and warped child voices collide into neurotic, hyper‑danceable earworms that treat the internet’s trash heap as sacred compositional mulch.
Slow Diet Ketamine Era
On Slow Diet Ketamine Era, New York City Chapters and Weird Shit U.S.A. 2 yank sampledelia into a sleazy, rubble‑strewn mixtape fever dream. Two thirty‑minute collages of chopped‑and‑screwed B‑side rips, plundered dollar‑bin grooves and neon grime‑slime hip‑hop loops sketch a pitch‑black, hysterical fiction from the sidewalk’s ignored edge.
Cunti
Tip! *300 copies limited edition* After years contributing to Italy’s heterogeneous and increasingly transnational music echosystem by curating his own dream & microsounds label Pampsychia, Reptilian Expo lands on Artetetra like an elegant jelly trainwreck hitting with a mix low-frequencies body-muzak filled with a cocktail of squeaks, wacky samples, manipulated vocal lines and a much-needed pinch of irony. Cunti is a collection of sonic short stories, fantastic journeys into an unconscious wor…
Fake Man
Do you remember when albums used to be fourteen tracks long, with clear song structures and a sense of narrative development? No? Neither do we. And that is exactly why Artetetra is thrilled to welcome Orange Car Crash in their roster with their new album Fake Man. Shaped by years of circulation across psych, jazz, punk, and experimental scenes, featuring collaborations with projects like Lay Llamas, Mamuthones and Snüff, Andrea Davì’s Orange Car Crash operates less as a solo project and more as…
A Body of Water
On A Body of Water, Kaloja - the duo of Jan Anderzén and Paul Wilson - summon a strangely pastoral, hyper‑alive electronic ecosystem. Psychedelic synthesis, physical modelling and impressionistic sound‑painting converge into abstract figures that ripple through an unstable yet welcoming landscape, like sentient currents moving beneath a calm surface.
For The Raven
*300 copies limited edition* For the Raven was due to be the next release after Ligeliahorn on the Nekrophile Rekords label. Sadly the project fell through and, even more sadly, it coincided with a number of the celebrants being rounded up to enjoy a short holiday at Her Majesty's Pleasure, expense and, indeed, insistence. By the time our intrepid Disciples Of Doom re emerged the momentum had been lost and For the Raven was consigned to the Metgumbnervaults to, until recently, only make an occas…
