Nuda per Satana
Finally, fifty years after the release of the film in Italian cinemas, Alberto Baldan Bembo's music score for "Nuda per Satana" is released for the very first time on vinyl and taken from the mono master tapes of the original session kept in the archives of Edizioni Musicali S.A.A.R. Fifteen tracks were selected with a total duration of approximately 37:35. Maestro Baldan Bembo created an electronic soundtrack introduced by the opening credits theme (A1) with the intervention of diabolical femal…
Trancedance
Black Truffle is pleased to announce the first vinyl reissue of Trancedance, a wild slice of Swedish Afro-fusion from Christer Bothén, originally released in 1984. A major figure in Swedish jazz and improvised music since the 1970s, often heard on bass clarinet and tenor sax, Bothen studied doso n’koni (the large six-stringed ‘hunter’s harp’ of the Wasulu) in Mali in 1971-2 before turning to the guinbri (the three-stringed lute of the Gnawa/Gnauoua) in Marakesh later in the decade. In between, h…
A Day In The Life
Limited Edition 180 Gram Gatefold LP Reissue. From the early 1960s to the late '80s, A&M was one of the most eclectic and powerful independent record labels in the world. The roster of artists who recorded there includes The Carpenters, Captain Beefheart, The Police, Joe Cocker, Suzanne Vega, Procol Harum and Janet Jackson, among others. Founded as an independent company by Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss in 1962, soon the label garnered interest and success, and was acquired by PolyGram in 1989. Thr…
The Space In Which The Uncontrollable Unknown Resides, Can Be The Place From Which Creation Arises
2025 Stock. A true exploration in spiritual jazz that follows A transcendental journey that takes in meditative musical mantras, sprawling tenor sax improvisation and mesmeric percussion, the new album by Work Money Death (the group that backed ATA artist Tony Burkill on his 2017 debut record of the same name) seeks to reinterpret the sound of artists such as Pharoah Sanders & Alice Coltrane over two tracks: the brooding tension of A-Side “Dusk” and the sanguine & uplifting “Dawn” on the B-Side.…
The Library Archive Vol. 3
*2025 stock* The funky, atmospheric, evocative and sometimes downright weird output of companies such as DeWolfe, Cavendish, Burton, and the ubiquitous KPM have always been a guiding inspiration for ATA Records, as evidenced in the spooky soundtrack vision of The Sorcerers, the big band brass of The Yorkshire Film & Television Orchestra and even in the soul-jazz of The Lewis Express and Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble. It only seemed natural for the team at ATA Records to scratch their own library it…
Master Of Bamboo Mouth Organ - Isan, Thailand

His virtuosic and endlessly inventive renditions of traditional and popular songs have earned him the t…
Set
Black Truffle is thrilled to begin 2025 with a rare solo release from Konrad Sprenger, alias of elusive Berlin composer-producer-instrument builder Jörg Hiller. A prolific collaborator, Sprenger has worked extensively with icons of American minimalism such as Ellen Fullman (with whom her recorded the gloriously eccentric song album Ort) and Arnold Dreyblatt (as a core member of the Orchestra of Excited Strings since 2009), as well as releasing their music on his impeccably curated label, Choose.…

The Sorcerers
*2025 stock* Originally released in 2019. Taking influences from Ethiopiques Ethiojazz as well as the soundtracks to the European horror films of the '60s and '70s, The Sorcerers seamlessly blend these disparate elements into one cohesive package. Based in ATA Records' home of Leeds, The Sorcerers are made up of the cream of the city's jazz and world scene. Forming the backbone of the ATA Records house band they incorporate bass clarinets, flutes, and vibraphone alongside bass, guitar organ and …
In Search Of The Lost City Of The Monkey God
*2025 stock* The Sorcerers began working on the new album during the winter of 2018 and it was during the writing sessions for this album that the concept for the LP began to take shape. The name for the album was taken from the title of a National Geographic article read by Bassist Neil Innes and was used as the starting point for the entire concept. The library music scene of the 60s and 70s has always been an intrinsic part of the sound of ATA Records and so it made perfect sense to envisage …
Egg
Featuring a line-up of Dave Stewart (organ, piano, tone generator), Mont Campbell (bass, vocals) and Clive Brooks (drums), the band had evolved from the group Uriel who also featured Steve Hillage. By the end of 1968 the group was reduced to a trio with the departure of Hillage to the University of Kent and they became known as Egg.
Egg singed to Decca Records in the summer of 1969 and recorded their wonderful debut album later that year. Originally issued by Decca’s Deram Nova label in January …
Seas of Triple Consciousness
Jordan Deal’s 2022 debut GOGO Underworld (Cor Ardens) hipped us to their multidisciplinary practice which shapeshifts across film, sculpture, sound & performance. Now we are proud to present the next chapter in Jordan’s recorded legacy. Seas of Triple Consciousness was recorded between monasteries & churches in rural France and Jordan’s home in Philadelphia. It takes cues from the gospel, blues and folk traditions as well as avant-garde composition techniques.
Essentially a song-suite centred ar…
Amphibiaibomma
Huge Tip! 200 copies. Mario de Vega engages with sound as a tangible medium to exasperate perception. For over 20 years, de Vega’s work has been exhibited as large scale commissioned interventions leaning towards liminal zones of aurality, ephemeral situations -often displayed as detritus of actions, prints, materials and publications-, sculpture, performative settings, and three-dimensional formats.
A M P H I B I A I B I H P M A (Amphibiaibomma) is a studio work composed between 2020 and 2024.…

Making Conversation
Crys Cole returns to Black Truffle with Making Conversation, her third solo release for the label. After the intimate song-like constructions of Other Meetings, Making Conversation documents a different facet of cole’s work, presenting three rigorously conceptualised commissioned pieces, each of which extend her signature approach to highly amplified small sounds into new directions.
Down On Darkened Meetings
Following on from the psychoacoustic concrète of Outside Ludlow/Desert Disco LP (BT 075LP, 2021), Sam Dunscombe returns to Black Truffle with Two Forests/Oceanic. Dunscombe has been active in recent years on multiple fronts, including as a key member of the Berlin community of Just Intonation researchers and practitioners; working with composers like Taku Sugimoto, Mary Jane Leach, and Anthony Pateras; and the release of Horatiu Radulescu - Plasmatic Music Vol. 1 (the result of many years perfor…
Jewels of Thought
The compositional minimalism of Jewels of Thought is a major thread through Sanders albums of this period, setting up a sparse canvas for colorful tenor saxophone meditations. In one instance Sanders' playing may be soft, beckoning and glad, while elsewhere his saxophone becomes a crazed, outraged beast unleashing its fury on the world. Regardless of which way these compositions lead, listeners are made to feel more like sonic travelers than mere consumers.
The Witches of Eagle Crag
Folklore Tapes open up the West Yorkshire vinyl series with a stunning musical adaptation of the tale of ‘The Witches of Eagle Crag’, performed by FT artists Bridget Hayden, Dan-Bridgwood-Hall, Ramsey Janini, Sam McLoughlin and David Chatton Barker. Eagle Crag is a well known rocky outcrop in the shape of an eagle’s head, located in Calder Valley just outside of Todmorden in Lydgate. The Witches of Eagle Crag was originally discovered in the book ‘Traditions of Lancashire’ by John Robey. The tal…
Ghost Meditation
*60 copies limited edition* “The ghost it is, who has come into possession of the Tao, reigns over gods and demons, and gives birth to heavens and earth. It kills the undying, and breathes life into the unborn. The sounds it creates, there is nothing it cannot still, nothing it cannot heave, nothing it cannot destroy, and nothing it cannot make.” In Chinese, “big ghost” is a phrase sometimes used to convey a sense of utter out-of-placeness. If you see a big ghost, you find someone who walks the …
