Torch Songs is a collaboration between Jonathan Coleclough and Andrew Liles. They met in October 2004 when they both performed at Intergration 3 in Preston, UK. Liles subsequently reworked the recording of Coleclough's solo performance from that evening. He went on to add, subtract, multiply and divide further live recordings supplied by Coleclough, and the eventual result was this double LP. Torch Songs is packaged in a gatefold sleeve featuring 'I Dreamt I Was a River,' a poem composed and pai…

** 2022 repress, with poster ** Muslimgauze's gem from the late 80s. Cinematic, minimal, noisy, hypnotic, and gloomy. Probably not so overtly Middle Eastern as his later works, though definitely bearing an influence. Backed by electric drones percussion forms a living, breathing atmosphere of impending menace. For a strange reason, this album was missed in VOD's Chasing The Shadow Of Bryn Jones 10xLP Box-set. Now you have a chance to complete your Muslimgauze discography! All Tracks Written and …
People Like Us returns with "Copia", Vicki Bennett’s first new album since 2018. Exploring the abundance of collage and sampling, it reflects on timeless connectivity and the fluidity of past, present, and future. "Copia" reshapes sound into a rich, playful, and thought-provoking sonic tapestry.
Anthony Moore's post-Slapp Happy output, for years an underrated-to-outright unknown quantity, achieves another dimensional plane with this third archival release from his personal tape library. Home of the Demo triangulates upon the art-pop qualities found in his previously unreleased OUT (1976, officially issued 2020) and the new wave-adjacent Flying Doesn't Help (1979, reissued 2022), finding Anthony's early/mid-'80s compositions drifting into the actual mainstream, just moments before it beg…
1970’s best-kept Bossa Nova secret. Surrounded by mystery for nearly 50 years due to its obscurity, this is one of the most honest, personal and unpretentious albums of its genre. A selection of 12 exquisitely crafted songs supported by measured, subtle arrangements. The list of musicians born or raised in the Tijuca district of Rio de Janeiro is long and illustrious and includes names that have shaped Brazilian music: Tom Jobim, Roberto Carlos, Tim Maia, Milton Nascimento, Jorge Ben or Erasmo C…
*300 copies limited edition* "After Klanggalerie coaxed a sleeping dog out of the hut with "Extra Weapons / Double Dog Dare, Summer '84" by The Lo Yo Yo, ADN throws me the next sweet bone with the re-release of Look de Bouk's avec des coussins bleus (AD9 012, LP). Look De Bouk were even split partners with Alig Pearce, Mick Hobbs, Joey Stack & Caroline Brooks on AYAA's "Double Dog Dare" cassette and were also linked together again on the "Bad Alchemy Nr 17" live @ AKW compilation.

L'oeil au centre de l'oeil by La STPO distills decades of avant-garde experimentation into a collection where tumultuous rhythms, surrealist poetry, and unrestrained instrumentation converge. The album’s elliptical structures mirror the disjointed vividness of dreams, mapping an abstract and ever-changing sonic landscape that refuses conventional boundaries and draws listeners into a whirlwind of meticulously orchestrated chaos.
In the late 70’s the Italian music scene recorded a renewed interest in a sound research involved to a stimulating fusion of popular elements, jazz improvisation and suggestions of the middle-oriental classical heritage. Starting from the experience of Aktuala the idea of a common "Mediterranean air", that could compare and harmonize rhythms and timbres of various regions, enlivened a large number of musicians.
In this context, it also placed the short history of Zeit and of his main mem…
Big tip! *300 copies limited edition, includes download card* Acclaimed New York-based composer Lea Bertucci offers The Oracle, a striking, vocal-focused collection of music that spans six tracks of adventurous sounds steeped in mysticism and imagination, over three years in the making. Her first purely solo endeavor since 2021’s much lauded A Visible Length of Light (Cibachrome Editions), The Oracle breaks new ground within the scope of Bertucci’s singular voice as an artist.
The Oracle is an al…
The six compositions on Soundwalk Collective’s new album, It’s All Breaking Apart, are based on field recordings from Berlin clubs, particularly Berghain, blended with additional sounds processed through modular synthesizers, ambient noise, fragments of conversations, and new vocal performances, both sung and spoken. The album features collaborations with Anika, Gudrun Gut, Elvin Brandhi, and Nina Kraviz. The opening track, The Crowd, is a collaboration between Soundwalk Collective and legendary…
Repress of a noise classic! Written in Blood by Slogun!
Few records capture the feeling of the wind coming off the water on the edge of lower manhattan, the dead zones by chinatown, the piers, the highway and under the bridges. the solitary parts of the city where men can truly feel alone surrounded by the machinery, concrete and elements called gotham. in a catalog of originality written in blood stands, cutting, biting and tearing into your mind with confrontational voices that truly make you …
With Steve Reich’s Music for 18 Musicians, the French ensemble Links presents a classic of the 20th century: Written in 1978, it was Reich’s first work for a larger ensemble. From today’s perspective, it is an icon of American post-minimalism which has not lost any of its fascination.
Rhythmic precision, a large dynamic spectrum and a unique range of colors guarantee for an unforgettable listening experience.
1999 release - For fifty-five minutes the great American composer Morton Feldman weaves his tapestry of sounds, a pattern always the same and yet never the same, an iridescent, thick fabric, full of details, although these never distract the listener's attention. Feldman met Beckett only once in his life (though Beckett later sent him a postcard on which the composer discovered the text for his opera Neither). He created music of a beguiling tonality and beauty, inspired more by painting and lit…
Rispecchiato in quarzo, Dal nero immenso, lèvita, and Traspare assente albore unfold as structured sequences of transformation—transparent, hypnotic, fairy. Each solo instrument (piano, contrabass clarinet, bass flute) interacts with multi-layered electroacoustic textures built entirely from acoustic sources. These “electronics” remain sensitive and natural, shaped through breath, resonance, and subtle manipulations. An 1876 Steinway, spectral clarinet multiphonics, and whispered flute tones for…
In tönendes licht., Klaus Lang imagines the Gothic cathedral as a resonating body shaped by the architectural principles of hierarchy and proportion. Performed by Wolfgang Kogert and the Wiener Symphoniker conducted by Peter Rundel, the work creates a unique interplay between the physical structure of the cathedral and the ephemeral presence of the music, evoking the medieval understanding of light and sound as pathways to the divine. Inspired by the ideals of Gothic art, Lang explores the conce…

2024 stock. While an undeliable impression was left in Zoviet France, Robin Storey, a founding member of that seminal group and the man behind Rapoon has continued to leave giant footprints across the landscape of darkambient music. “Just Say The Faith” comes from a very cold and damp place, perhaps inside an ancient abandoned church, where long shadows fall across gnarled tree roots and forgotten voices echo from dusty corners. The colors are black and brown, the elements are Earth and Water, a…
