Operation
Reissue of the second record from this legendary Berlin krautrock band on the original Ohr label. Produced by the well-known photographer Didi Zill in Hansa Studios in 1971.

The Paths of Pain: The Caife Label, Quito, 1960-68
A dazzling survey of the last, bohemian flowering of the so-called Golden Era of Ecuadorian musica national, before the oil boom and incoming musical styles — especially cumbia — swept away its achingly beautiful, phantasmagorical, utopian juggling of indigenous and mestizo traditions.
Alain Badiou
Eric as Alain. Philosophical trimmings as unabashed art. Satire isn't mean, it's about being funny. Get in on the joke. Eric as Homer Simpson. Includes 88-page artist's book; Softbound: 8.5″ x 11″. Edition of 170.
The Cop Killers
A genuine holy grail of Italian post-industrial music, The Cop Killers’ sole, eponymous tape is remastered and issued on vinyl for the first time via Alessio Natalizia’s Ecstatic label. Fetching triple figures on the 2nd hand market (there’s a copy on scogs atm for £300) this is an indispensable slice of ‘80s Europe’s underground experimental rhizome. An important release for Ecstatic and one very close to their heart, ‘The Cop Killers’ was originally released in 1982 on the legendary Trax labe…
Monólogos A Dois
**Limited edition of 100 copies** “I am not sure if with the double bass there are various types, like with the guitar, but none is mentioned on the cover or the fact if this is a mono recording. The latter probably not. It was recorded in the spacious surrounding of the old church in Oud-Charlois, which is a part of Rotterdam and home to a few great concerts, some of these involving the church organ housed there. Goncalo Almeida stuck to his bass. We know him for his one-off collaboration with …
Shibboleth
CD+Book, art edition Original sound installation by Eiki Mori (born 1976 in Ishikawa, Japan). A horn speaker, used to send small sounds far away, will emit whispers of various voices that read Mori’s poems in multiple languages. In the galley space, these voices shall sound nostalgic but at the same time be felt as if they are heard for the first-time, coming from somewhere around the globe. The 15 shibboleths written down for this installation do not really stand for symbolic things or events…

Wetland
**300 copies. The leaves assembled on the CD package were collected around the pond where the recording was made.** As in Eisuke Yanagisawa's own words: I set the recorder on the shore and collected it the following day. At midnight, the growling of animals (which turned out to be the sound of bullfrogs, an alien species) reverberated around the pond. Mizorogaike, which consists of a pond and a wetland, is located on the northern edge of the Kyoto Basin. Many aquatic plants, insects, fish, wild …
Gargorium
A Fou Records production, like a large part of the music of its producer, Jean-Marc Foussat, is a bit of a puzzle.
Gilbert Artman . Etienne Jaumet
Gilbert Artman (bass clarinet, drums, synths), one of the great names of the French underground of the 70s with Lard Free and Urban Sax together withe Etienne Jaumet of Zombie Zombie fame. This LP is what we may call Cosmic-jazz! Progressive tracks with electronics, harmonium, xylophone, synth and saxophones!
Frauen-Feuer
This would have been the Brazilian post-punk supergroup. It would have, because bassist and singer Sandra Coutinho moved to Germany, leaving these recordings behind -- only two songs were released, in an independent compilation (Enquanto Isso, 1991). Sandra (bass, As Mercenárias) along with Denise Camargo (keyboards and voice, Bruhahá Babélico and Dequinha e Zaba), Biba Meira (drums, De Falla), and Karla Xavier (guitar, R. Mutt), expressive musicians in expressive bands, were AKT. And this power…
Aunt Sally
This seminal, eponymous post-punk album by Japanese group Aunt Sally, fronted by experimental singer Phew, was first released by the iconic Vanity Records label in 1979. Over the past forty-plus years, Phew has forged a singular path through a wide range of styles - from free improvisation to pop - and has collaborated with the likes of Ryuichi Sakamoto, members of Can, DAF, Einstürzende Neubauten, The Raincoats and more. But Aunt Sally is where she got her start and, despite the members’ young…
Shards of Distant Times
Italian sound artist Giulio Aldinucci returns with his third album on Karlrecords: "Shards of Distant Times" is again a truly masterfully composed and sound-designed ambient masterpiece and a more than worthy follow-up to the critically acclaimed "Borders and Ruins" (2017) and "Disappearing in a Mirror" (2018) which both made it onto several year's best lists.
Don't Drown
A meeting of two mavericks - Greg Malcolm, a guitarist from New Zealand who has played with Rosy Parlane, Toshimaru Nakamura, Tetuzi Akiyama and Bruce Russell, as well as solo releases on his own label Corpus Hermeticum, and Stefan Neville aka Pumice - a long-running, endlessly inventive project whose shambolic music is equally reminiscent of Kiwi pop groups such as The Clean and Tall Dwarfs as well as the country's experimental noise-rock bands like the Dead C. "Who would attempt to combine cun…
Hattie Cooke
*In process of stocking.* Third Kind Records release Hattie Cooke's debut album anew on 180g white vinyl. We originally released this on cassette in 2016 and it quickly became a sought-after fan favourite as well as our most requested vinyl reissue.
Since it’s 2016 cassette release Hattie has released two successful LPs and developed something of a following for her combination of catchy but candid alt-folk songwriting with New Order-like synth pop textures. This debut remains one of the most co…
Via / Solaia
This bundle includes the two Limpe Fuchs LPs released by Streamline, namely "Via" and "Solaia".* 300 copies, both LPs come with an extensive booklet * Limpe Fuchs’ first solo record came about by accident. Initially, Christoph Heemann invited the famous Anima duo to do a studio record in his home-town Aachen, but Paul Fuchs decided not to join in, so Limpe went on her own – and the recording sessions taking place in late 1986 and early 1987 turned out to become “via”, Limpe’s first solo-record a…

I\'m One Of Those Monsters Numb With Grace
James Brown had the nick-name ‘the Hardest-Working Man in Show Business’. Dirk Serries from Belgium must be one of the hardest working men of the ambient music scene. From the mid 80’s on he filled dozens of albums with atmospheric music under the name of Vidna Obmana. In 2005 he started a new project, Fear Falls Burning, and the number of releases already cannot be counted one one hand. The concept of Fear Falls Burning is a clear: a single man performs real-time on the electric guitar, which s…
