Tip! *100 copies limited edition* This album is the third in a series of experiments exploring the magnification of the insignificant sounds. The chaotic but inherently repetitive patterns created by the interaction between the objects has been realised through a minimum of gestural action by way of a number of distancing strategies, such as the use of hand drills, film winders and motorised drills/screwdrivers. Astasie-abasie is a project of Ian Andrews which evolved out of a long running perfo…

The first and only recorded meeting between two absolute giants of the soprano saxophone - Steve Lacy and Joe McPhee - finally sees the light of day after 36 years! On June 9, 1977, Lacy and McPhee shared a double bill in Basel, Switzerland. Lacy invited McPhee to join him for a duet to close his set, and McPhee brought out his own soprano saxophone for what would become a historic encounter. The main part of Lacy's performance was issued on the classic Clinkers LP back in the day, but this fina…

This is deep, layered, uncompromising music that demands your full attention! Recorded between 2019-2021 in The Nest Cellar, Brus…

“A blissfully ecstatic sprawl of spiritual-jazz explorations of the most transcendent order” – Brooklyn Rail

Super groups are always risky—the potential for disappointing fans or warring musical styles is high—but when longtime friends and masterful improvisers come together, they usually work. Evident in their first collaboration, simply titled Volume 1, John Dikeman (Saxophone; When The Time Is Right, 577 Records, 2021) joined musicians Pat Thomas (Piano; Shifa Live at Cafe Oto 2019, BleySchool 2019, Shifa Live in Oslo 2020, Educated Guess 2021), John Edwards (Bass; EMPoWered. 577 Records, 2021), and…

Some mighty fine unreleased Basil Kirchin's film music here, including the freaky deaky Mutations score, plus a killer Eastern-tinged TV soundtrack from a TV show you may never have heard of, called Journey To The Unknown, which was a spooky precursor to Tales Of The Unexpected. Kirchin's distinctive talent resides in the smooth juxtapositions and mutations of recorded surroundings, free jazz skronk, surprising vocal samples, and delicate electronic harmonies that he employs in his music. Basil …

Walter Strerath passed away unexpectedly at age 39 in September 1981, just as a South American tour for 1982 was being organized. Fly to Brazil, recorded in Darmstadt in January 1975, stands as his final album—a culmination of a brief but remarkable career that took him from industrial management in Mönchengladbach to recognition as one of Europe's finest jazz pianists. Strerath's trajectory was unusual. He began presenting solo performances in 1958 while working his day job as an industrial man…

Laura Poitras’ Oscar-nominated film »All the Beauty and the Bloodshed« is an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin. Told through intimate interviews, photography, and footage, central to the story is her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the opioid crisis. The film cuts to the bone with its incandescent celebration of life and condemnation of those who threaten it. Art and activism are one and the same. Help…

Dischi Fantom’s Sussurra Luce series, blurring the boundaries between text, music and voice, returns with their third instalment, Hanne Lippard’s “Talk Shop”. Sculpting a fascinating bridge between radically experimental sound practice, conceptual art, and sound poetry, across its two sides the Berlin based multidisciplinary artist taps an almost dada sensibility, delivering a suite of poems and texts where singular words and sentences are looped and repeated creating a sensory experience of the…

2025 stock A live band session from their Succour album period, including Rough For Radio and Phazemaze which never appeared on any other release. Warp Records release WXAXRXP Sessions featuring ten specially selected sessions recorded for radio from across the history of the label, from the very early days right up to the WXAXRXP x NTS weekend. In the age of immediate, unelected, often low-quality rips of anything that is broadcast, these releases present each session in the highest quality ado…

The nine-track Plus comes just 12 days after Sean Booth and Rob Brown released Sign, their first "traditional"-format album since 2013's Exai. This is the second of two new albums that Autechre teased in their lockdown live-stream sessions on Mixlr earlier this year, in addition to their latest batch of live recordings. You might call Sign Autechre's ambient album. The percussive sounds are few and far between, and they create rhythms that are even less legible than the norm for recent Autechre—…

Marking their fourth studio album, Chiastic Slide saw Autechre exploring dark, glitched-out sonics, harsh sounds, and mechanical rhythms.  Chiastic Slide - the glitch blueprint - endlessly imitated, deconstructed and worshipped, now a quarter of a century old and still capable of shaping the narrative.  We’ve said it before, but the period that followed Chiastic Slide was a weird one in electronic music, there were just no other records that shaped IDM in quite the same way. This rubs people the…

*300 copies limited edition* The Rita and Caligula031 "Self Shop" was first released as a split tape in 2013 by the Italian cult tape-label Nil By Mouth in a limited edition of 180 copies. 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of this album and here we go with the CD re-edition including a third long collaborative track.

"Second and final collaborative work by MB [Maurizio Bianchi] & MO [Mauthausen Orchestra], recorded before the premature departure of Pierpalo Zoppo the man behind Maurhausen Orchestra (R.I.P.).In the modulatory system, sounds are extracted from a basic materialistic sound and then overlaid with the use of random techniques that conceal the rumoristic load-bearing tones. The result is these "Material Modulations", which represent the primary device to receive physical and emotional response for …

Limited Edition Picture Disc We have repeatedly surprised you with unusual releases that sound uncharacteristic for wellknown artists. Remember Merzbow with guitars, synth (almost said synth-pop) and drum machine? Well, Muslimgauze's turn came up. Emak Bakia – long out of print masterpieces from 1994. Even in the huge Bryn Jones' discography Emak Bakia really stands out of albums from the period due its rather unique (house-music related) sound and short, by the standards of Bryn Jones, tracks. …

In the vast and uncompromising catalog of Muslimgauze, certain works stand as crystalline statements of Bryn Jones's singular vision—albums that distill decades of political engagement and sonic exploration into their most essential form. Hamas Cinema Gaza Strip, composed less than a year before Jones's untimely passing in 1999, emerges as perhaps his most cohesive and sonically refined release, now returning via the MG Archive series in a limited edition of 200 manually screen-printed copies. T…

A sequel to the cult 1975 Australian space rock album Monster Planet. In 2013 The Roundtable curated a dedicated program redocumenting the music of Australia’s legendary space rock band Cybotron. A new generation of electronic music enthusiasts and krautrock fans alike had been introduced or had perhaps been reconnected to the unlikely yet incredible sounds of Australia’s unique brand of ‘kosmische musik’. This archival series included Steve Maxwell Von Braund’s groundbreaking solo album Monster…

A Stone For Angus MacLise documents a 2007 trio session recorded during the same period that produced Dauphin Elegies (VHF 112). The instrumentation—harmonium, singing bowl, gong, and esraj - reflects Pelt's longstanding interest in sustained tones and the textural possibilities of acoustic drone music. The album takes its name from Angus MacLise, the poet and percussionist who performed with the early Velvet Underground before the band's commercial recordings. Like MacLise, Pelt have maintained…

Aakash marks the debut recording of the Portland, Oregon-based trio of Matt Carlson (Golden Retriever), Michael Stirling (a disciple of the late Hindustani master Pandit Pran Nath and a student of Terry Riley), and Doug Theriault. Derived from live improvisational performances, the record finds Carlson's rich analog synthesizers joined by real-time processing of Stirling's lilting voice and Theriault's idiosyncratic guitar work and electronics. Dipping into a kind of liminal void, Aakash isn't j…

Vinyl version with 4 tracks. Innersleeve with liner notes and lyrics, as well as photos. With this release, EM Records shine a light into the dark and yet strangely uplifting world of Inryo-fuen's early '80s wonderland: a surreal, adventurously analog, positively negative realm of freedom. Following the EM Records release of Inryo-fuen's enigmatic Ho-aku (EM 1125CD), Early Years 1980-82 collects the band's earliest recordings, originally released on flexi and vinyl, here re-edited, re-mixed and …

2025 Stock.  EM Records presents the CD and vinyl reissue of Nicolas Collins' Devil's Music, originally released in 1986. The New York-based experimental composer and circuit bender created this work through live radio sampling techniques that anticipated developments in electronic music production by several years. Collins developed his practice through collaborations with Christian Marclay, Elliot Sharp, David Shea, David Tudor, and John Zorn, establishing himself as significant figure in expe…

2025 stock “There's so much complexity in life and human emotion that I have a hard time feeling convinced a song is always either happy, sad, melancholic, angry or scared. I look at these emotions like elements that are constantly colliding with each other, so it's my duty as a songwriter to reflect that. I want to fall in and out of the cracks of genres, finding the nerves not yet hit. It's usually in the disturbing part of the spectrum…” So says Joe Haege, who’s earned a reputation for unset…

Richard Lerman has spent over four decades gathering sounds that most of us never notice, amplifying the mundane until it reveals itself as magic.

Amazing release by the video & sound-artist from Brazil Marcellvs L., a four-channel sound piece titled "Klavierwellen" or Piano Waves (2011). The piano waves we hear are literally just that: while on a residency, the artist upturned a piano on a boat traveling around the canals, on which two contact microphones were attached to the soundboard and two micro omnidirectional placed between the soundboard and strings. The movement of the boat through water creates a kind of roving ambient experienc…

Despite decades of notoriety as one of the “filthiest books in the world,” Steve Cannon’s first and only novel, Groove, Bang and Jive Around, has hardly been read since first being published by the Paris-based Ophelia Press in 1969. Due to its scarcity, the New York Press deemed it “an underground classic of such legendary stature that New York’s black cognoscenti have transmogrified the work into urban myth.” This debut, revised for release by Olympia Press in 1971, cemented Cannon’s place as a…

2025 stock Los Angeles-based duo Sana Shenai began in 2009 when their Dublab radio-affiliated ambient quintet Golden Hits went on hiatus. Jimmy Tamborello (Dntel, The Postal Service) and Mitchell Brown (LAFMS, Sun Araw, Sissy Spacek) have since amassed a mountain of material culled from 10 years of home recording. In late 2018 the 5-song digital EP "Forewarm" was released by Leaving Records, which now joins seven other pieces on this physical debut double LP for Les Albums Claus, "Warm Forever".…

Directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile, Adulterio all’italiana (Adultery Italian Style) is a biting comedy that targets bourgeois hypocrisy and the paradoxes of marriage in 1960s Italian society. Starring Ugo Tognazzi and Catherine Spaak, the film follows a couple in the midst of a full-blown marital crisis, navigating infidelity, subtle acts of revenge, and a battle of the sexes portrayed with intelligence and irony. Adding rhythm and color to this emotional battleground is Armando Trovajoli, who…

“Vedo Nudo” is a comedy in episodes that explores the many facets of desire and Italian society in the 1960s. Starring the brilliant Nino Manfredi, the film ranges from irony to social critique, addressing themes of sexuality, taboos, and cultural changes with a light touch. The soundtrack adapts seamlessly to each episode, modulating its tone to suit the narrative and the characters. Armando Trovajoli demonstrates an extraordinary ability to create music that complements and enhances the mood o…

The soundtrack for “Dramma della Gelosia: Tutti i Particolari in Cronaca”, composed by Armando Trovajoli in 1970 for Ettore Scola's film, is a brilliant fusion of irony and emotion, perfectly aligning with the tragicomic tone of the movie. Trovajoli, a master of Italian film music, captures the film’s essence with a score that oscillates between lightheartedness and pathos, reflecting the emotional contradictions of the characters. Ettore Scola’s film, starring a stellar cast including Monica Vi…
