Misterios Cosmográficos
1980's: Chile was a place where very little space was given for artistic
creation, sometimes it was forbidden to create. However, with a
determined inner strength, José Ignacio Valdés decided to take this project
forward self-producing his own tape cassettes (DIY culture). He wanted
to show the young people, his friends and family that the Chilean could
create music at the best level in the world. This LP includes "Misterios
Cosmográficos" remastered album, originally released in 1983, plu…

Live at Sendai Jazz Festival, Den-ryoku Hall, 20.10.1986
The gifted American pianist Keith Jarrett is one of the jazz world’s greatest musicians. Born in suburban Allentown, Pennsylvania in 1948 with a mixed European cultural heritage, Jarrett was a child prodigy that played piano at the age of two, appeared on television, aged five, and gave his first classical recital, aged seven. After studying at the prestigious Berklee College of Music, he moved to New York in 1964 to perform at the Village Vanguard and then joined Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. D…
Eudaimon
Delphine Dora, fresh from recent collaborations with Sophie Cooper and Mocke, presents a new album of solo material. Dora’s approach to the piano, her voice, and her compositions embraces the strangeness and intimacy of everyday life and one’s inner thoughts. Eudaimon lets her pure songwriting side sign brightly and clearly. Vinyl release on three:four.The twentieth century has had its share of poets exploring magic and mysticism. However, it is Kathleen Raine who has articulated the deepest s…
Vanishing Points
All sounds are created with guitar, with the use of echo, delay, and assorted treatments giving these pieces a trance-inducing quality, with repeating rhythm figures and gradual phase shifts creating a warped sense of time.
Death Of The Prophet
Legendary Palestinian band from the early 80s, with a worldly instrumental palette alternating between sparse and folkloric styles of music and poetry zajal with classical Arab singing influences, with more urgent free experimentation that breaks into sufi-esque dervishes soundscapes
Vouerca/Fahy
Traditional experimental hypnotic endless medieval r'n'b. La Tène collect, listen and probe folk melodies and motifs of large territories, from the Jura to the mountains of Auvergne, weaving them to repetition and continuous sounds, electronics and frenzy until exhaustion. Their music, drones played with traditional and acoustic instruments is an invitation to the dance frantically, leading to euphoria or trance. Cyril Bondi and d'incise are well-known swiss experimental musicians. They have a h…
Fayrus
More than ten years after the demise of Sun City Girls as an entity, something wild and weird has now surfaced, grown and ripened in the heat and dust of the same desert. Described as “deep spirited, Arabic-music-tinged free jazz-punk and harsh exotica”, Sunn Trio’s ever-evolving ensemble digests a number of genres, spitting them back out in “creative destruction.” Carrying on a long tradition of sun-beaten Phoenix punk, Sunn Trio evokes the sweltering and hallucinatory Arizona desert. Echoes of…
Ecophony Gaia
**2021 small repress** Deep, deep, earth music from Tsutomu Ōhashi and the Geinoh Yamashirogumi crew. A macrosymphony composed for the International Garden and Greenery Exposition in Osaka, Japan, 1990, Ecophony Gaia, was supposed to be the stunning, aural centerpiece for a light and water performance system echoing the sentiment of the venue: "Harmonious Coexistence of Nature and Mankind".Ecophony Gaia was in its truest essence the final part of a trilogy that began with 1986's Ecophony Rinne, …
Ege Bamyasi
**Limited heavyweight green vinyl LP** The group's fourth album, from 1972, originally issued by United Artists. "The follow-up to Tago Mago is only lesser in terms of being shorter; otherwise the Can collective delivers its expected musical recombination act with the usual power and ability. Liebezeit, at once minimalist and utterly funky, provides another base of key beat action for everyone to go off on -- from the buried, lengthy solos by Karoli on 'Pinch' to the rhythm box/keyboard action o…
The Colony
**300 copies** The Colony is the debut LP from Los Angeles based Oil Thief. After a string of releases on Total Black & Chondritic Sound, 'The Colony' represents a diverse suite of sonic intention. Straddling the barrier between rhythm and noise, 'The Colony' remains beneath the umbrella of industrial music. A culmination of the first 5 years of the project.
Here & Now Vol.2
“Music especially created for films, television, radio, publicity and industrial use”. The disclaimer coming with these two records – "Here And Now 1 & 2" – puts a smile on our lips and brings us back to more culturally innocent and naive times. A quick listen is enough to realize that this is top quality material (even if often hidden behind weird and mysterious titles), which can’t be compared to anything released in recent times. Paolo Renosto, the person behind the moniker Lesiman and the au…

Cover art made exclusively for this release by Mariana Castillo Debal. Deluxe gatefold slee…
Sir Richard Bishop and Ed Yazijian
Yet another luxurious spectacle from the Saraswati Series. Ex-Sun City Girls master guitarist Richard Bishop teams up with Cul De Sac’s long time Girls live collaborator Ed Yazijian. Two Grand Seigneurs of underground deliver an unique album deeply Western rooted, filled with the musical spirit and structures of Indian music at the same time. Elegant interplay, brilliantly arranged, using mostly guitar (lapsteel, tenor) and strings (viola), and some Indian stringed instrument which I can’t prono…
The Story Of Moondog
Dating back to 1957, The Story Of Moondog followed up the previous year's More Moondog LP, setting its course for adventurous new sounds and homemade percussion meditations.The music is never a slave to any one fixed agenda and much of the material here sounds as if its gathered from some undiscovered culture - it's all-but impossible to compare this with anything else from the era, but when the longer-form pieces arrive they augment the more primal, outsider aesthetics with visceral, jazzy arra…
Sprigs Of Time: 78s From The EMI Archive
2LP version, in deluxe gatefold sleeve with 2 booklets of photos and notes. This is the third in Honest Jon's series of albums exploring the earliest 78s held in the EMI Hayes Archive. Honest Jon's has spent the last two years delving through more than 150,000 78 records in the temperature-controlled steel vaults of EMI's Archive in Hayes, Middlesex. Following studious compilations of West African and Iraqi music of the 1920s, the latest release in the Honest Jon's Hayes Archive series is a spar…
Guitar Loops
Breaking form from the more overtly free jazz-oriented agenda the Treader label has based itself upon, this release finds Jason Pierce of Spiritualized and Spacemen 3 tackling a lengthy piece of music assembled from electronically treated guitar loops (as you no doubt guessed from the title) and a bit of lo-fi percussion. The resultant thirty five minutes of music is an enormously dynamic, often rather difficult venture into the avant-garde, far-removed from the trance-inducing pop Pierce built …
Witchdoctor’s Son
2019 small repress. **beautiful vinyl edition of the hugely sought-after avantgarde gem** Matsuli Music is proud to be releasing another forgotten gem of the South African jazz diaspora – the 1976 Istanbul session featuring Johnny Dyani and Okay Temiz fusing deep roots and new routes, integrating folklore and rhythm within an experimental, avant-garde vision of love and life.
