Battling the Invisible
Edition of 300. Comes with a 8-page booklet. In 1969, while American minimalism was consolidating into its most recognizable forms, Charlemagne Palestine was conducting solitary experiments with oscillators and sine waves that only now reveal their visionary scope. This was the New York of lofts and abandoned industrial spaces, of artists pushing sound toward its physical limits - a city where the boundaries between music, performance art, and bodily endurance were dissolving. Battling the Invis…
Here Comes Success
Band Of Susans stretch their guitar‑drone blueprints to breaking point on Here Comes Success, a long‑form barrage of tuned distortion, motorik repetition and coolly mantra‑like vocals that turns noise‑rock excess into something strangely meditative.

A Vibrant Touch
*300 copies limited edition* Polish composer Aleksandra Słyż joins Warm Winters Ltd. with A Vibrant Touch, her second full-length album.

The Beat of the Earth
Cosmic Rock Records proudly announces the long-awaited reissue of The Beat of the Earth, the ultra-rare debut album from the enigmatic experimental jam band The Beat of the Earth. Formed in 1967 amid the sun-soaked vibes of Orange County, California, this elusive artifact was originally released in minuscule quantities on Radish Records—a obscure private press label that barely scratched the surface of the era's underground scene.
Guided by the visionary Phil Pearlman (later the mastermind behin…
Io E Mara
A Milan-born multi-instrumentalist of Venetian heritage, Alberto Baldan Bembo was a gifted vibraphonist, organist, pianist, arranger, and composer whose work bridged jazz, pop, and film music. By the early 1960s, he was performing with Italy’s leading ensembles, including I Menestrelli del Jazz and Bruno De Filippi’s group, and soon became an in-demand session musician. For several years, he toured with the legendary Mina, providing the piano and organ backbone to her live shows—a role that shar…
L'Immagine Del Suono
Big Tip! Joel Vandroogenbroeck was an arranger, conductor, producer and, above all, a unique multi-instrumentalist in the world of music. The Belgian artist was also famous for being the only permanent member of the group Brainticket and the main promoter of its creativity, often renewed with the contribution of exotic instruments. At the dawn of the Seventies, this versatile musician began a parallel life as a composer of singular music libraries tailored to comment documentary images. “L'Immag…
Valvole (LP)
Library music operated by contract: titles that described a setting, tracks short enough to cut and paste, music made fast and under budget. Ugo Busoni's Valvole, originally released in 1975 on the Nuova Idea label, followed those rules on paper - and then proceeded to ignore most of them in practice. Reissued for the first time on vinyl by Musica Per Immagini, in a limited edition of 500 copies with new artwork, it is one of the more genuinely peculiar records to emerge from that world.
The tra…

Somewhere between the editing suites of Cinecittà and the ethnographic archives of a parallel universe RAI documentary department, two of Italy's most prolific sonic chameleons shed their studio pseudonyms lik…
Morality
In 1985, Gary Mundy of Ramleh sent out an invitation. He asked artists in the orbit of his label Broken Flag to respond to a single concept: morality. Define it, refuse it, occupy it, destroy it. The results arrived on a cassette, catalogue number BF41, pressed in a run that circulated through the postal networks that kept the underground alive in those years. Most of it was never heard outside those networks. The title was not ironic. It was a provocation with genuine stakes.
Morality was alway…
Abstract Forms
**300 copies** By the time the 1980s rolled around, most of the old guard had either hung up their saxophones or sold their souls to the synthesizer in ways that made you want to weep into your Campari. Not Sandro Brugnolini. The man who'd spent the late '50s channeling Miles Davis through the smoke-filled clubs of Rome with the Modern Jazz Gang, who'd scored jungle goddesses and naked panthers for Ruggero Deodato, who'd descended into the psych-fuzz inferno of Underground and Overground when th…

Efuru is the first album by the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arktet, led by saxophonist and composer Fuasi Abdul-Khaliq - former assistant conductor, arranger and longtime member of Tapscott's legendary UGMAA collective.
