Way Down
Robert Turman‘s industrial genre-bending masterpiece album “Way Down†finally has been reissued!

He first rose to prominence as part of NON, collaborating with Boyd Rice on the classic 1977 single ‘Mode of Infection’/'Knife Ladder’, before leaving to pursue his own more expansive solo vision. Turman released a number of cassettes ov…
Spirals of Everlasting Change
Two copies back in stock....MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!!! This album is sure to blow you away. "Spirals was originally conceived in 1982 as two separate cassettes, each consisting of a series of seemingly random, yet carefully selected loops, usually one to three minutes long. The two cassettes were played simultaneously on small portable cassette machines, started randomly, so the interweaving of rhythms was different every time. Several years later, the two tapes were committed to a single mix,…

Classroom projects - Incredible music made by Children in school
Incredible music made by children in schools" says is it all really. Jonny Trunk has collected the best moments of that most niche of niche collectors' genres, the school album, spanning music by small primary school choirs singing folk songs to full-blown avant-garde experiments written and performed by children still at secondary or grammar school. As with practically all Trunk releases, it's a nostalgic gas for anyone over a certain age - we reckon anyone younger than 25 may be baffled and be…

Danza Meccanica - Italian Synth Wave Vol. 2 1981 - 1987

Ten tracks that spell out the manifesto of a scene fascinated by electronic innovation, a scene that used the sound…
The Plain Truth

Physical Changes
CD+DVD+LP. Mueller's mammoth new solo percussion work. If his previous solo effort "Metals" was about pummeling rhythms & frequencies, this drives the whole idea into oblivion, as the sounds here are something to be felt as much as heard.

Mother of fire

The album was sculpted in Reykjavik by Ben Frost, enhanced by his signature aural physicality and visceral sub bass.
