Il Giro Del Giorno In 80 Mondi
Originally issued on Fonit Cetra label in 1972, and then re-released on Black Saint in 1976, this is Enrico Rava's legendary first album. An eclectic yet organic mix of open lyricism and NYC funk groove. Backed up by Bruce Johnson on electric guitar, Chip White on drums and Marcello Melis on double bass (one of the true unsung heroes in Italian creative jazz), Rava shines throughout the whole album with his very distinctive sound and his deep sense of melody. After more than 40 years this marvel…
Arv & Miljö
Biiig Tip! Edition of 300. The LP comes with a 12-page booklet. The final album from Arv & Miljö consists of two sidelong pieces based almost entirely on field recordings. The recordings roughly span from 2014 to 2024 and were primarily recorded in Gothenburg, capturing life-affirming moments from an intense decade through snippets from endless summer nights out, great people desperately wanting more from life, hazy underground culture encounters and just random, confusing everyday nonsense that…
Operation Segerpil
Edition of 294 copies, brown cardboard sleeves with paste-on artwork and insert. Inspired by decades of well-intended Swedish mission work, the soul of the raw and uncompromising nature and early 80's bedroom electronics, Operation Segerpil was originally released as two separate EPs on Förfall in 2022-2023. Now slightly reworked and reorganized with the lesser parts scrapped, a rather powerful album somehow emerged from the mist. Brutish weirdo electronics covered in sweat and mosquitoes with b…
Poire-Z
1999 release ** "Released in 1999 as a wave of electronic-based free improvisation was slowly overtaking the world of avant-garde music, Poire_Z appeared as the first such record by a supergroup of sorts. The duo Voice Crack (Andy Guhl and Norbert Möslang), Günter Müller, and ErikM's proposition was of a highly introspective, slowly building shroud of electronically derived sounds: the popping of M's vinyls, the clicks and crackles of Voice Crack's electrical devices, Müller's cheap electronics,…
Zahra Fugues
2009 release ** "Part two of the epic, numerology-inspired Tetralogy series, Zahra Fugues is Frank Rothkamm's first all-acoustic release since his Chamber Ensemble, which dates back to 1984. These 26 individual pieces, all in the fugue form, are the results of the composer's experiments with the Steinway Model M grand piano that resides in Zahra's apartment in Manhattan. Rothkamm demonstrates that he knows his way around a piano, crafting his counterpoint-fuelled missives as effortlessly as most…
Compiled
2008 release ** "Trance is the one-man project by american musician Mason Jones, known also as the founder of Charnel House label. During the 10 years of existence, he released 4 albums and numerous compilation tracks, which are often even more original and precious than album tracks. That's why we decided to gather them altogether for this release, which collects the most interesting material from the archives of the underground network. Mason Jones began Trance in 1987, and initially released …
La Sangre Real
2008 release ** ""Thelema - La Sangre Real" is the fifth album by the Italian dark-rock band Thelema, released in 1993. It's a conceptual work based on the legends surrounding the historical Jesus, drawing on esoteric traditions. The album explores themes like the extraterrestrial origins of Jesus' blood, the interactions between humanity and beings from other planes of existence, and the possible survival of Jesus and his lineage. Musically, it features a hypnotic and dramatic sound, fitting th…
Black Hill: Midnight At The Blighted Star
2008 release ** "Human Greed lie somewhere between the gorgeous drones of Stars of the Lid and the haunting and solemn “Symphony No. 3” by Henryk Górecki… This is powerful stuff and takes a while to fully digest it. The oily darkness that the music conjures up gets deeper and deeper with every listen, a resonant and otherworldly tremor that is at once human and sublime."
Maschinenraum 173
2006 release ** "Antracot is a one man power electronics noise act from Germany. Started in 2002, Antracot has developed his personal style into an intense form of ultra-harsh synthesizer driven power electronics with spontaneous outburst of extreme Japanese influences to stun the listener deaf. Antracot is known to work together with Atrox quite often. This duet usually performs gigs that blow most noise bands off the roster."
Army Of Robots
2003 release ** "Early project from Jason Crumer (NIDWST, American Band, etc.) which reads somewhat like a gutter-soaked lo-fi version of the Amazing Grace album, coupled with some early noise excursions."
Punkt
2003 release ** "Red Shift fuses blistering hypnotic break beats with dark atmospheric sound textures and derives its inspiration from the images of distant galaxies and planets captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. Imaginings of distant space are counterbalanced by the gritty reality of living and creating in the dense urban environment of London and the impact this has on everyday aural experiences. Beats and breaks are constructed individually and meticulously in the break beat science styl…
U-t-O-P-i
2015 release ** "Behind e-SaxBow is Florent Colautti on e-string and François Wong on electrified baritone saxophone. I have no idea what an electrified baritone saxophone is, but in none of this one can easily recognize the horn or anything with a string that is supposed to be the e-string. The latter is played using electromagnetic bows, which he pilots from his computer. The saxophone is also transformed by computer means and thus the five pieces, which last thirty minutes in total, sound lik…

Gehörgänge
2002 release ** "Psygram is Siegfried Fischer (voice, accordion, samples, percussion) and Dirk Grützmann of Temps Perdu? who is responsible for real time audio processing, electronics, loops and engineering. The group started around the same time as Temps Perdu?, with the music focused on surreal ambient-industrial soundscapes and hypnotic live improvisations in a studio setting with influences of electroacoustic music. "All our music is recorded in those magic moments where emotions, dreams and…

McGear
Esoteric Recordings is pleased to announce the vinyl re-release of McGear by Mike McGear. Originally released in 1974, McGear was the second solo album by Mike McGear (younger brother of Paul McCartney) and was a more “serious” record than his work with the Liverpool satirical trio Scaffold, or his work with Roger McGough on the McGough & McGear album. Recorded at Strawberry studios in Stockport, (the musical home of the band 10cc), the album was produced by Paul McCartney (who also played on th…
