**2021 stock** 140 Gram Vinyl / 250 mcn paper / Printed on recycled corn paper 100% biodegradable / handily double plasticization / handily external gluing / PVC outers / original artwor . What jazz music and verse recitation may have to do with each other may be another strange question for the majority. However, it has been proven that the jazz musician and the reciting poet can complement each other and during this hot and concentrated encounter between the two art forms, we see the emergence…

“Ethiobraz” documents the meeting of Paal Nilssen-Love’s Large Unit big band and Ethiopian dance/music ensemble Fendika at Molde Jazz Festival in 2018. Joining them as a special guest is guitarist Terrie Ex, who was a key component in getting making the meeting happen with his long involvement with the Ethiopian music scene. And, Paal Nilssen-Loves’s first travel to Ethiopia was with The Ex in December 2009. This changed his life. Paal’s first travel to Brazil was in June 2013. This also changes…
Tip! *Limited vinyl with uncoated sleeve, printed inner and download card (300 only)* Inspired by Noam Chosmky's "universal grammar", it refers to man's innate ability to develop language. It is that English, Occitan, French patois, Hindi, Pygmy or French cohabit on this record, juxtaposing on rhythms and beats that appear as a fantasized primordial tradition. If My Jazzy Child aka Damien Mingus, questions languages about Innéisme, he also questions musical languages, mixing Asian rites and free…
Tip! *2023 stock* If there's one thing the fans have been craving for when it comes to catalogue re-issues, this is surely it. It's simply incomprehensible that early Motorpsycho releases (except Demon Box) haven't been available on vinyl since they first came out some 30 years ago. Salad Days vol. 1 includes the following titles, with all artwork recreated by Håvard Gjelseth from the very best available original sources and the music remastered by Helge Sten from the original tapes where these…

Yellow vinyl edition. Quite possibly the greatest Morricone score ever – and one whose dreamy bossa-inflected title theme has been covered a number of times over the years (most recently by the group Balanco!) From the first minutes of the album, you'll instantly recognize the main theme – as it's swells of voices and lilting keyboards are among one of Morricone's best signatures from the time. Don't worry about getting bored because you may already know it, though – as the album has loads of ot…
*Italian language edition* La Musica Sperimentale is a firsthand account of the postwar, essentially Anglo-American musical tradition related to the music and ideas of John Cage. Published in 1974 in English and finally now for the first time in Italian, the text is a classic on radical alternative compositions to the mainstream avant-garde represented by Boulez, Berio, and Stockhausen. Introduction by Brian Eno, Unmissable! "What impresses me is not only the amount of information but also the s…

Tip! *300 copies limited edition* "Before hitting the road together in 2022 Bill Nace and Emily Robb recorded a tour split — a cassette, limited run of 50 — only to be found at their merch table. Now on vinyl, the split captures a moment bursting with verdient, crisp anticipation. Both artists were then on the heels of significant artistic leaps. Robb was wrapping up the promotional cycle of her first full-length solo record, 2021’s How To Moonwalk, and Nace had recently shifted his focus from p…
* Newly remastered, limited edition pressing * Brij Bhushan Kabra was one of the Indian musicians who heard the steel guitar’s siren call, but his vision went beyond adapting Hawaiian sounds to popular music. Instead, he saw the instrument’s potential for playing ragas. To pursue this dream, Kabra began studying with Ali Akbar Khan, whose fretless sarod offered a sonic example for Kabra to emulate with his lap-slide guitar. Kabra’s instrument was a Gibson Super 400, modified with a drone string…
Swiss/Lebanese experimental duo Praed (Raed Yassin & Paed Conca) is back with a new blast. A band whose musical oeuvre can be described as a mixture of Arabic popular music, free jazz, and electronics. Following Doomsday Survival Kit previously released in 2019 (Akuphone, AKU1011), Kaf Afrit keeps the listener in suspense by imposing its cataclysmic universe. An album inspired by Shams al-Ma'arif, a 13th century esoteric and magic book from Egypt composed of four furious pieces that don't leave …

For a soprano (or mezzo-soprano) solo and an actress voice (Sprechgesang technique) with electro-acoustic (fixed sounds). Anne-Lisa Nathan, mezzo-soprano. Helena Rüegg, actress voice. “First there’s this relation between sung voices and spoken voices with regard to the electro-acoustic parts. The sung v…
Providing the simple text 'Blowing into playback remembrances. Rescription. Some kind of telling.' Banana seem to improvise in space, with considered timing, to-hand objects and bursts of feedback, voice and hidden instrumentation. The tape rings of previous releases of theirs such as MP Hopkins solo LP 'Blue-Lie Half Breath' on Penultimate Press or Alexandra Spence's 'a veil, the sea'. I hear nods to the 'Onkyo' scene in the whistling feedback and stark spaces. Comparisons to works by Akio Suzu…

Monobeat Original is the new project by Werner "Zappi" Diermaier, drummer and founding member of the legendary Krautrock band Faust. An odyssey of dark-tribal-ritualistic-krautrock with a cinematic bent. From the atavic to the post-industrial and the renewal of a distant and hypnotic Krautrock. Music from a future too far away. Zappi W Diermaier drums, keyboards, psalter, voice. Elke Drapatz drumeffekts. Amaury Cambuzat guitar. Uwe Bastiansen guitar. Dirk Desselhaus guitar, bass guitar, Artwork …
The Galician duo Trajedesaliva (Mon Ninguén – music , synths & Una Vena – words, voice and visual concept) returns with Ultratumba, an album full of passion, anguish, bitterness and sadness. Guided by naked emotions as much as by sparkling intellect, this is a singular work, an architectural wonder of pure analog electronic sound as we have not heard for a long time, with splendorous timbres that tend to the dark but also to the emotionally devastating. An album that feels strangely interactive …
*2023 repress* Eighth album from Gilles Peterson favourite Nat Birchall. Deep, soulful spiritual jazz of the most honest kind and probably Nat's best album to date. The band features two drummers who, along with the rest of the 5 piece group, create enough kinetic energy for interstellar travel, which is exactly where the music takes the listener!
The subject of many poor quality bootlegs, this concert - one of only a handful undertaken by Fripp & Eno - is routinely described as legendary. Hearing the tapes in fully restored audio quality, it's easy to understand why it attracts such reverence now and perhaps, why the shows attracted such hostility then. No Roxy Music hits, No King Crimson riffs, just a duo sitting in near darkness with a reel to reel tape recorder, improvising over the pre-recorded loops with a filmed background projecti…
