Xhos De Villemahu
Recorded between 2009 to 2016, this is the Jacques Brodier masterwork, a truly unique hybridization of musique concrète practices, sounds from nature, shortwave signals and a dystopic / mystical realization of minimalism. "Penultimate Press is proud to present the second full length release by the acclaimed French inventor, instrument builder, musician, visual artist, researcher and writer Jacques Brodier. Following up the 2012 release Filtre De Réalité, Xhos De Villemahu expands Brodier’s visi…
Temps Espace
Temps Espace consists of two pieces of DIY “musique concrète”. DIY because it was made outside of any academecism and done with the equipment that I owned at the time of the recordings, appropriate or not. Two tracks Inter…, in-between : one composition, intermezzo, was done 14 years ago and the other one, interfluve, 2 years ago. The connection between those tracks is the original sound material which was recorded at about the same time (early 2000s). Time and/or space are the central in the t…
Organ Works Vol. 1
I put my music into the space. I don’t want to send any messages, I think of nothing and I don’t want to purport any meanings. The listeners hear what they hear and behave to the music as they feel.
Austrian composer, Klaus Lang, describes himself as observer of tones. As stated himself, his roots belong to Gregorian tradition and his music definitely represents abstract way of perceiving it.
Though abstraction (of form and content), he is interested in clarity and truth.
His work includes piec…
Monadologie XII
For the second time, rocked Bernhard Lang basis of GODrec, delivering his ultimate piece from Monadologie series –Monadologie XII, for ensemble. Unlike the previous release (TablesAreTurned, with Philip Jeck), Monadologie XII is nothing less than a blast: a three-part concerto for ensemble with occasional saxophone solos and terrific drum parts (watch your ears on the second side of the vinyl!). And all that, in astonishing performance of Klangforum Wien, under the direction of genius Johannes K…
Hall ov Fame
“I have movies in my head” describes Tobias Freund the source that inspired his new album to fill it with a fantastic life of its very own. Consequently, each of the eight tracks represents a scene out of a fictitious short film, some of them with a claustrophobic and tense atmosphere while others appear light and hopeful on the screen of imagination. What they have in common is an adventurous spirit that is inherent in and played out by three main characters: repetitive electronic and acoustic …
Edgar Wappenhalter
** 2021 Stock. Edition of 150 ** Long-awaited return of Steve Marreyt, the grandmaster of psychedelic dronefolk-soundcollages. here he resurfaces with three long and impulsive tracks - mainly based on vocals and samples, but using the same direct and messy approach that made his earlier releases so unique. The entire A-side is taken up by an acapella lamentation for Herman Bisschop, the Dutch artist who passed away in the summer of 2018 and was a personal friend of Marreyt. The B-side thrives on…
Accident In Heaven
Accident In Heaven was originally released in 1987 as a hand-made micro-edition of about 40 cassette tapes. It was only the third ever release on the short-lived now near legendary SDV label which had been established that same year by Konrad Kraft, Bernd Sevens and Dino Oon in Düsseldorf.Finally finding a more substantial and appreciative audience on vinyl over 30 years after its original limited release, Accident In Heaven is a strong testament to the explorative experiments of Detlef Funder a…
Demons!
"Desire is exploitation," the label notes for this ambitious two disc set proclaims. The demons get in any way they can, through laws that repress or through indulgence that never seems like it will ever be enough. "Demons!" explores the dread that accompanies our facing our own capacity for evil, as individuals and as a culture. Once again, Stephen Moore and Walter Cardew use orchestral and cabaret motifs to propel their horrific tales of sin and revenge. And where better to probe the personal …

The CD ends with a live track from the Berlin concert on 16 May 2008.

It's Not The End Of The World
Quasi Pop proudly presents this record by Norwegian experimental/noise hero Lasse Marhaug. On this record he plays with the methods and traditions of serious electronic avantgarde that integrated into the aesthetics of loud & bloody harsch noise music. Damn hard, loud and overloaded skillfull thing, but exciting and highly intelligent at the same time. Please, play this CD as loud as it possible!Important: This is CD re-release of the same-titled very limited CD-R released in 2006 on chinese lab…
Chöd Ritual / Grotta Santarcangelo
**2020 stock, 300 copies** On July 7, 2017, Phurpa performed a Chöd / Chod live ritual in Santarcangelo, Italy. The ritual was held inside a cave (grotta in Italian). Chöd / Chod is an ancient practice of cutting through tensions, fears, and obstacles in our life. In Chöd / Chod, we visualize making an offering of our body, which is transformed into whatever is wanted by all beings in all realms. In this vast offering we create and cultivate a flow with everything around us and are in contact wi…

Wet Robots
"Few vocalists have the sheer boldness – the outright fearlessness – of Fay Victor as an improviser. The New York native has long been a creative force on the avant-jazz scene, as a singer, bandleader, composer, arranger, and teacher. She has worked on both sides of the Atlantic with the likes of Misha Mengelberg, Roswell Rudd, and Anthony Braxton, along with recording several distinctive albums as a leader. Reviewing her recent disc Absinthe & Vermouth, NPR declared evocatively that Fay’s origi…
In the Court of the Crimson King
**Recent repress, classic prog-rock masterpiece gets the reissue on 200 gram vinyl** The group's definitive album, and one of the most daring debut albums ever recorded by anybody. At the time, it blew all of the progressive/psychedelic competition (the Moody Blues, the Nice, etc.) out of the running, although it was almost too good for the band's own good -- it took King Crimson nearly four years to come up with a record as strong or concise. Ian McDonald's Mellotron is the dominant instrument,…
In The Wake Of Poseidon
CD edition. Released in clear-tray jewel case with 12-page booklet. Originally released 1970. Tracks 9 and 10 are bonus tracks taken from the single King Crimson - Cat Food / Groon. King Crimson opened 1970 scarcely in existence as a band, having lost two key members (Ian McDonald and Michael Giles), with a third (Greg Lake) about to leave. Their second album -- largely composed of Robert Fripp's songwriting and material salvaged from their stage repertory ("Pictures of a City" and "The Devil's …
USA
USA was recorded towards the end of King Crimson's final US tour of the 70's in June 1974. It was issued as an epitaph for the band in Spring 1975 as a single album – at a time when doubles or even triple live albums were more considered the norm for live releases. The reputation of the 1972/1974 King Crimson line-up is now revered by critics and fans alike with the material very sought after.
In common with much of Crimson's output, it was not well received at the time by critics, thoug…
Psychic Panorama
*In process of stocking * A new 66-minute psychedelic synth epos from Sewer Election. Half of the material was originally released as a very limited cassette on Malign Editions in the summer of 2021. Brutish and cold minimalism that kind of resembles Nord or a David Tudor on benzos. Recorded in Kortedala, Gothenburg.
Knirsch
2010 release ** Classic interweaving of jazz, rock, avant-garde and electronic, with Larry Coryell & Colosseum's Jon Hiseman. Completely new standards were set with this recording, originally released on MPS in 1972. Knirsch became cult and still is until now, almost 40 years after its release. A unique example for the successful interweaving of jazz, rock, avant-garde and electronic. The musicians: US guitarist Larry Coryell, German keyboarder Wolfgang Dauner, British drummer Jon Hiseman, US pe…
Boanerges
Duo of Jim Sauter from Borbetomagus and Kid Millions from the Boadoms and Oneida ! The sound of saxophone turning into an extreme noise and brutal raging percussion! Such is the latest NOISE JAZZ from NYC! (JOJO Hiroshige / Hijokaidan). Jim's sax playing is impulsively domineering in Borbetomagus, which is based on a usually percussion-less trio formation of two saxophones and one guitar; and I was really curious to hear what would happen when it encountered a drummer who is often described in t…
