Time
Multi-reedist Tony Coe was born in 1934, four years after guitarist Derek Bailey. He cut his teeth as a career jazzman with Humphrey Lyttleton, before an extended stint with the Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band. On this rare 1979 duo outing, he sticks to clarinet. And though that instrument has an illustrious jazz pedigree, Coe’s playing here is something else. It’s worth noting that the clarinettist has also played under the baton of arch-modernist Pierre Boulez, the kind of composer Derek B…
Royal
2018 small repress. Honest Jon's Records present a reissue of Derek Bailey and Anthony Braxton's Royal, expanded to include both intended volumes. Volume 1 was originally released in 1984; the second volume was never issued. The second release in a series of collaborations between Honest Jon's Records and Incus: three double-LPs of the legendary free-improvising guitarist Derek Bailey, solo (HJR 200LP) and in duos with Anthony Braxton and Han Bennink (HJR 202LP), augmenting the original releases…
Duo
Continuing the series of collaborations between Honest Jon’s and Incus. As throughout the series, the recordings are newly transferred from tape at Abbey Road, and re-mastered by Rashad Becker. And here we have this incredible duo from underrated cellist Tristan Honsinger and Derek Bailey, originally released on Incus in 1976. There are parralels between this record and fellow sometime Parisian string pkayer Joelle Leandre's Taxi, but really, Honsinger's voice is like no other - there's less rev…
Angoscia
In an age when mental landscapes have become as urgent as physical ones, Sounds From The Screen presents a rediscovered treasure from the golden era of Italian library music: Alessandro Alessandroni's haunting 1975 masterwork "Angoscia." Originally released by Octopus, a label devoted to thematic libraries, "Angoscia" stands as one of Alessandroni's most psychologically penetrating works. Here, the composer native of Lazio demonstrates his unparalleled ability to transform abstract emotional sta…

Hold on to your hats. This is HEAVY.
Nine tracks of pure six-string electric guitar alchemy.…
Pushovers
*150 copies limited edition* Beautiful edition of glass mastered CDs with hand painted covers by Tim Bradley on full color 400g offset print card stock in thick PVC sleeves that we think really compliments the, at times radical, combination of sounds and textures in the music. The works are "over painted photographs", directly inspired by Gerhard Richter's series of the same title (Übermalte Fotografien). Bradley says: "To paint over a photograph is to admit that truth is always blurred—each ges…
Hypotaedium
Hypotaedium is a 45-minute acousmatic composition consisting of 11 parts. The piece was conceived utilising the seven reverberation chambers at Tou Scene and the performance was recorded by Gaute Granli. This is Kjetil Brandsdal and Thore Warland’s fifth album and also the fifth in a series of records on Drid Machine Records featuring hand assembled and foil stamped Procédé Heliophore covers. Much like the source material that is re-worked, looped and cut-up throughout the piece itself, the cove…
Pressures of the Fresh
Since the duo’s inception in 2021, Kjetil Brandsdal and Thore Warland have released 5 LPs of their turntablism/percussion fusion. This is their first single before adding Helge Thornes as a vocalist and morphing into Hebbex d’Expectatio Expectata. Recorded during the 2023 Get Next recording sessions at Consulatet in Stavanger, this single compresses the duo’s sound and approach into two 3-minute no-nonsense tracks. Pressures of the Fresh is a hectic electro-pastiche drowned in the murky waters o…
Drums & Drones
This recording is exactly what it says it is - drums and drones - based on Just Intonation tuning theory: A tuning system modeled after a naturally occurring acoustic phenomenon known as overtones, the subsidiary tones which exist in an ordered series from an established primary tone. Stemming from this single primary tone an infinite amount of overtones can be derived.
Monster A Go-Go (Teen Trash From Psychedelic Tokyio '66-'69)
*2026 repress!!!* Sought-after compilation exploring the Group Sound movement that swept Japan in the mid 1960s.

Featuring the influential The Mops, the Filipino band (relocated to Hong Kong) D’Swooners and The Golden Cups.
Servizio dall'Oriente (1971)
Lovely 1971 library re-release, a survey for a reading of Malaysian stories (describing in an exciting way the charm, mystery and exoticism of Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and China), with an overall elegant background of oriental music that blends with decidedly Western sounds, often experimental, giving life to a fascinating and unforgettable jazzy musical texture. The characteristic of the topics, which are sometimes sweet and melancholy, or descriptive, is to contain slow sounds that a…
Akira O.S.T.
*2025 stock* The strength of the Akira soundtrack lies in its unique blend of traditional Japanese instruments and futuristic electronic sounds. Yamashiro weaves together an eclectic mix of influences, creating a sonic landscape that mirrors the dystopian and cyberpunk themes of the movie. The use of traditional chants, taiko drums, and shakuhachi flutes alongside electronic synthesizers and orchestral elements generates a hauntingly mesmerizing atmosphere that perfectly complements the visuals …

The Harp Of New Albion
The Harp of New Albion is a transfixing solo piano recording, conceived and performed by world-renowned minimalist composer, the ever-innovative Terry Riley. His inspiration for this work came from a legendary harp, left behind in the New World in 1579, on the shores of Nova Albion, which is now called San Francisco Bay. A Native American medicine man is said to have found the harp and placed it on a cliff where the westerly winds played upon it and temperature and humidity changes created an ev…
The Glass Changes Shape
"These three artists don’t need volume or soloing to get their message across. Their message is inscribed in elegant lower-case and rarely used aural fonts. You will find yourself leaning forward because not a note or whisper should be missed..." - Brian Morton
Your Head You Know
2026 stock The telepathy and intuition that flows between these three musicians is one that has developed over many years of playing together in different combinations, and on a permanent regular basis at NYC's Nublu, searching and creating together in the moment. What they have come up with has evolved steadily over that time and its current form can be heard to brilliant effect on their new EP "Your Head You. Know". The exploratory instrumental space-jazz these gentlemen purvey has many antece…
Symphony For A Genocide
The legendary 1981 LP is back!! "The moral of this work is: the past punishment is the inevitable blindness of the present. Death camps were established through the process of dehumanized engineering, to destroy the will of the individual, and to create industrialisation of death. The modern parallel is to override the individual human choice through mass-media that established the city of death, in which marketing has become synonymous with mass destruction. A pathetic symphony for both i…
Spiral Insana
Limited and numbered edition of 1000 copies on black vinyl. Probably one of Nurse With Wounds most deep and mysterious recordings, with 4 indexed tracks containing 20 listed sequences. Such is Steven Stapleton's Nurse With Wound. The music contained here in, still having it's surreal edge, is more ambient and user friendly than on many other Nurse With Wound outings. Stapleton and guests, Robert Haigh and David Jackman mix prepared piano, percussion, loops and various bric a brac together int…
