Extrasussurrante
An updated companion to "Architettura Sussurrante" the curious sound experiment by Alessandro Mendini. 70 minutes of brand new and unreleased music. Digipak comes with 16-page full color booklet, documenting Mendini's sound collaborations with critical texts and rare pictures. Also, Mauro Sabbione (who composed the track Casa Mia using fragments of the Mendini’s op-ed) offers an expanded and oblique version that this time around takes advantage of the entire transcript. On both tracks, one relea…
Septober Energy
Released in 2-CD digipak with clear plastic trays and credits on right outer panel. Illustrated booklet in left pocket. Remastered from the original master tapes by Ben Wiseman at Broadlake studios, Hertfordshire. A mammoth, fifty-person enterprise featuring the cream of the early-seventies jazz-rock brigade, Centipede's 1971 album 'Septober Energy' proved to be an exercise in both gargantuan excess and instrumental brilliance. Naturally, opinions on the release are divided. The line-up is far …
Fishscales Falling: A Smorgasbord Ov Delights - Mixtape Volume 1
*2025 stock* Born in 1981 from industrial music progenitors Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV is fronted by Throbbing Gristle cofounder, anti-hero, artist, and pandrogyne Genesis Breyer P-Orridge. Psychic TV is particularly known for its intense and visceral live performances and for a creative lineage that includes such cultural luminaries as William S. Burroughs, Derek Jarman, and Timothy Leary, among others. In 2003, New York-based artist and musician Edley ODowd gently persuaded Genesis to reki…
Principe di un Giorno
"Principe di un giorno" is the first and only album by Celeste, a Ligurian group born from the ashes of Il Sistema, a band with a considerable potential that, however, never managed to release a proper LP. Recorded between 1974 and the following year, "Principe di un giorno" was only published in '76, kept in the drawer by a label that kept saying they were waiting for the right time to release it, just to put it in the stores at the wrong moment!The almost non-existent consideration ensued at t…

Complete Piano Music Vol. 10 - Etcetera
“The interpreter is a very important person indeed in Cage’s piano music, and a top international expert like Steffen Schleiermacher is a must for a complete recording such as this one: he knows the nuts and bolts and all the fine nuances.”
Angel Tears in Sunlight
Angel Tears in Sunlight is Pauline Anna Strom’s first album in over thirty years; an assemblage of music that refracts the expansiveness, and minutiae, of imagined realms while embracing the kaleidoscopic echoes of our distant epochs.
The capacity to collapse time might elucidate the enigma of Pauline Anna Strom. A mystic force in music, emerging during the dawn of new age as the Trans-Millenia Consort, the pioneering synthesist channelled primordial energies into future-facing sound through a s…
De Tragedie Van Een Liedjesschrijver Zonder Woorden
*2022 stock. 300 copies limited edition* “De tragedie van een liedjesschrijver zonder woorden” (The tragedy of a song writer without words) is the first normal CD by Orphax. This album contains music that has been written between April 2005 and July 2007 and retouched again in 2008 and 2010. The period these songs were written was one with many transitions in the live of van Erve. It was the end of his student years, the begin of his working years, a period where he struggled with an at that tim…
Nothing Here Now but the Recordings
*2023 Restored Edition* In 1980, Genesis P-Orridge and Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson (then of Throbbing Gristle renown) travelled to New York City to meet up at the fortified apartment, known as The Bunker, of famed beat writer and cultural pioneer William S. Burroughs and his executor James Grauerholz to starting the daunting task to compile the experimental sounds works of Burroughs, which, up until that point, had never been heard.
During those visits, Burroughs would play back his tape recor…
Mental Shake
*2025 stock* CD version. Cafe OTO's tenth Otoroku release sees a return to the group that kick-started the label -- the veteran German reedsman and free-jazz pioneer Peter Brötzmann with the long-running London bass/drums partnership of John Edwards and Steve Noble. After the release of The Worse The Better, that group went on to play a series of devastating shows in Europe and to emerge as one of Brötzmann\'s finest working groups. Over the same period, Peter was developing a deep rapport with …
The Fire Still Burns
** 2021 Stock ** 45 years after his debut album Valley of Search (1975/India Navigation), jazz saxophonist Alan Braufman returns. The Fire Still Burns has that gritty, forthright sensibility we hope to hear in sonic collaborations borne out of beauty and struggle, but there’s a populist ease that comes with age and reflection. Put simply it’s natural music – complementary, individual, and full of the sweet, hot taste of celebration.
Metabolism: A Salute To The Energy Of The Sun
Another offering from fringe pop combo BIRD NAMES. The band is a duo, of sorts, comprised of PHELAN LA VELLE & DAVID LINEAL, though a cast of characters have helped them along. They explore a pop sound that touches as much on the naïve as it does the borders of avant-experimentation. The album is 12 songs of Beach Boys "Smiley Smile", psychedelic rhythms, & dense, lo-fi pop songcraft.(SAKI)

Putredini Obnoxius
'Putredini Obnoxius' was the tenth Capricorni Pneumatici album, originally composed in 1991 for the Portuguese label Putrefactio but never published at the time. 26 years later it comes to light in this first edition, released from the original 1992 master tape. This CD is part of CP 30th anniversary releases. A "lost album" therefore, for the Milanese duo dedicated to a ritual ambient and psycho acoustics fused with ideas gleaned from the writings of Aleister Crowley. The manipulated voice of …
Predictability Failure
Sergey Senchuk aka Tungu was born in Chernihiv, Ukraine in 1999. He started playing in the spontaneous-intuitive band Kollektiv, and in the hard core bands Remorse and Keepleer 18. He begun to record using the nickname Tungu with his first release "Opus Hereticus"in 2013. His idea was to make of Tungu a project that would contain field recordings, cut ups, samples and live instruments. Four albums were recorded since then : "Dense arrays" 2014, "Ilf and Petrov with us" 2016, "Burst of exsessive …
