Point Of Eruption

With 8-page booklet in LP size.
Silver Music
For close to a decade the sound of Italian cinema and television ran through four musicians from Rome. I Marc 4 were the rhythm section the country's leading composers reached for first, and between sessions they cut a long run of library albums under their own name. The scarcest corner of that catalogue sits on two companion imprints, Silver Music and Silver Men, issued in 1976 and seldom seen since. This new edition draws the strongest material from both onto a single LP, in the original milit…
Topographie Parisienne
2025 repress. Originally released in 2019, this essential 4CD box set documenting one of the rarest trio meetings in the history of European free improvisation is finally available again.
Eleven years after the legendary The Topography of the Lungs (Incus, 1970) - one of the landmark early albums of English free improvisation, co-founded the Incus label itself - the trio reunites at 28 rue Dunois in Paris. Almost three and a half hours of non-idiomatic free improvisation captured by Jean-Marc Fo…
In Pas(s)ing
On In Pas(s)ing), Mick Goodrick turns understatement into signature, floating a cool, singing tone across an ECM all-star backdrop. John Surman, Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJohnette move with almost invisible precision around his quietly lyrical themes, creating a session where momentum whispers rather than shouts, and melody lingers long after the notes fade.
Counter Spectacle
"In November 2024 (for reasons that we all understand) I recharged the meaning and value of my commitment to play Free Music many years ago. Everyday since I’ve been guided by its inherent support for the rights of all people, non-violence, peace, equitable, moral, ethical justice for everyone, the health of the planet, and the certainty that music might comfort us, enlighten us and even elevate our thinking.
The current criminal world spectacle requires billions of individual and collective cou…
Six Pianos / Music For Mallet Instruments, Voices And Organ
Six Pianos is a minimalist piece for six pianos by the American composer Steve Reich. It was completed in March 1973. Music for Mallet Instruments, Voices and Organ – again – emerged in the same year. The piece is scored for glockenspiels, marimbas, metallophone (vibraphone without resonator fans), women's voices and organ. The piece is in four sections, played without a break, marked off by changes in key and meter.
Frühjahr '76 - Erinnerungen An Klaus
Lindwurm were formed in 1972 in Uelzen and played a somewhat rough-edged progressive rock. The reference to Hanover, which you sometimes come across, is not accurate. Nor should they be confused with the jazz-rock group of the same name from Jork-Moorende on the Lower Elbe (LP Im Windschatten, 1981). In 1976, the much-loved Lindwurm singer and guitarist Klaus Arndt was struck by a car on the motorway and killed. The band dissolved immediately and, in his memory, released an LP that is now pricel…
Hansten Klork
Originally released in 1980 and long regarded as one of the most avant‑garde statements of its era, Hansten Klork captures Metabolist at the intersection of post‑punk restlessness and uncompromising experimentalism. The album’s stark textures, motoric rhythms, and hypnotic minimalism reveal a band equally indebted to kraut‑rock repetition, post‑industrial atmospheres, and the austere clarity of minimalism—creating a distinct, unsettling sound that still sounds contemporary today.

Studios.

Sub Re

Bonnet) returns to Shelter Press after Swamps / Things, Shifted in Dreams, and the recent reissue of the classic Zauberberg, co-composed with Akira Rabelais and Stephan Mathieu. With this major new album, entitled Sub Re, Bonnet continues his long exploration of the musical possibilities of sound, extending the concrete approach developed at the Groupe de Recherches Musicales, the historic and essential Parisian studio that Bonnet has been directing since 2018. Sub…
With Open Arms
On With Open Arms, Cult of Youth finally emerges from a seven‑year chrysalis with a sprawling “pagan post‑punk” epic. Born from off‑grid barn sessions, weaponized analog gear and years of cut‑and‑spliced reconstruction, the 62‑minute double album plays like a feverish exorcism turned into a hard‑won, defiant rebirth.
Solid Static
On Solid Static, Musica Transonic / Mainliner - Asahito Nanjo, Makoto Kawabata and Tatsuya Yoshida - turn late‑90s Tokyo psych into a feral laboratory, smashing motorik riffs, free‑jazz volatility and distortion worship into one long, white‑hot detonation.

This soundscape, reminiscent of wandering into a deep forest, quietly soothes the listener’s heart and the surrounding space. We invite you to experience this musical journey－much like a walk in the woods－in this day and age.
3/3
3/3 is best known as the precursor to Friction, one of the most influential bands in the history of Japanese rock. Despite the fact that their only album was originally selfproduced in 1975 in an extremely limited run of just ten copies, it has since come to be recognized as one of the most important and legendary recordings in Japanese rock history. For decades, the full scope of the album remained shrouded in mystery until P-Vine reissued it on CD in 2007, finally bringing this elusive recordi…
Antimon
*300 copies limited edition* Returning after the introspective descent of The Sarajevo Spiral, Cyclic Law presents Antimon, the latest ritual transmission from the long-standing collective Nam-Khar. Founded in 2009, the project has continuously navigated the liminal intersections between ritual ambient, psychoacoustic exploration and esoteric introspection, employing an arsenal of ethnic instrumentation, analog synthesis and immersive visual elements to construct deeply transformative sonic envi…
Cantiga De Longe
Available again for the first time since 1970, Lobo’s melancholy masterpiece epitomizes the experimental evolution of MPB. With new liner notes by Edu Lobo. Released in 1970, Cantiga de Longe is a defining record in the career of Brazilian singer, composer, and guitarist Edu Lobo and a significant contribution to Música Popular Brasileira (MPB). Created during Brazil’s military dictatorship, the album reflects the subtle, poetic strategies that artists use to convey meaning while subject to cens…
Eternal Almost
“Eternal Almost” is a collaborative album by Japanese musician Tomo Katsurada and Estonian composer Misha Panfilov. Born from the simple joy of songwriting and creative exchange, Tomo and Misha had long admired each other’s music from afar. When the opportunity to collaborate finally arrived, it felt completely natural, and by the time the album was finished, it almost seemed as though the two had known each other always.
United by a shared sense of humour and musical curiosity, Tomo and Misha p…
