Vol.3
On Vol.3, Heimito Künst abandons drift for brutal repetition, channeling Thomas Bernhard and 19th‑century auditory therapy into a krautrock‑acid vortex where Moog, Mellotron and pounding drum machines turn obsessive sonic loops into a deeply psychedelic, physically overwhelming ritual.
Live at Moers Festival
2026 Re-issue. A cornerstone of postwar Japanese free improvisation, captured before three thousand listeners at the ninth Moers New Jazz Festival on 26 May 1980 and issued later that year as TBM-5023. By this point Masayuki "Jojo" Takayanagi had spent more than a decade refining his theory of mass projection - a model of collective improvisation in which the ensemble operates not as a sequence of soloists but as a single density field, modulating texture rather than line - and the New Direction…
John Zorn's Bagatelles Vol. 8
On The Bagatelles Vol. 8, John Zorn hands nine knotty miniatures from his 300‑tune book to the John Medeski Trio, who turn organ, guitar and drums into a shape‑shifting engine of groove, skronk and sly lyricism that makes each Bagatelle feel like a tiny, exploding suite.
Mystic Siva
Formed in 1967 in Detroit, the band Mystic Siva consisted of four teenagers - none older than fifteen - who released a single self-titled album, recorded in a single day in 1970 at the band's self-managed V.O. Studios. The lineup consisted of Dave Mascarin on drums, lead vocals, the original composer, and creator of the album cover; Al Tozzi on guitar, who co-wrote five of the eleven tracks with Mascarin; Marc Heckert on B-3, organ, and vocals; Art Thienel on bass and vocals.
Inferno
Tip! »Inferno« retains its characteristic melodies and atmospheres, drawing on the esoteric influences of »Societas X Tape« (the BoC 2019 NTS mix for Warp Records’ 30th anniversary) as well as the dark atmosphere of »Tomorrow’s Harvest«, which is further intensified by the increased use of spoken-word recordings. The first BoC album in thirteen years has a running time of seventy minutes.
The Warm Garden
Tip! A pivotal force in the foundations of Noise music in Japan, Fumio Kosakai is half of The Incapacitants, and has recorded with other acts such as Hijokaidan, CCCC, and Club Skull. Originally released on cassette in an edition of fifty copies in 1993, "The Warm Garden" is a pinacle for collectors of 90s noise and the outer realms of Japanese psychadelia. The work steps away from the denshi zatsuon (electronic noise) of his other groups and instead comprises two pieces of minimal electronics, …
Congliptious
On Congliptious, Roscoe Mitchell strips the Art Ensemble idea to its bones, pairing stark solo showcases with a fierce quartet blowout that makes freedom feel both methodical and combustible.

Bidule 2.0
On Bidule 2.0, eRikm tunnels into a cache of unheard Pierre Henry tapes, feeding analog “sound objects” from 1950–1974 through his custom digital apparatus to forge a dense, flickering work where early musique concrète and present‑tense signal processing fold into one another.
Hìeratico
Biiig Tip! Italian drummer, composer and sound artist Nicolas Remondino announces the release of his new album Hìeratico, a work that delves into the borderlands between ritual, abstraction and contemporary experimental music. The record presents a radical reimagining of the drum set and percussion as an autonomous sound-world, where pulse, noise and silence continuously collide and reconfigure. On Hìeratico, Remondino treats rhythm as a living architecture rather than a mere time-keeping device…
vd5
Vladislav Delay, primarily known as a highly regarded electronic music innovator, steps ahead with his acoustic jazz quintet. Echoing the forward-looking vd musical vision always ahead of the curve, the new album does not fit into any specific category, forging a path of its own across the 10 tracks. Recorded at Candybomber Studio in Berlin, the album brings vd together with Maria Bertel, Lucio Capece, Derek Shirley and Max Loderbauer. This is shape-shifting, elastic music that exists left of an…
Buttercorn Lady
On Buttercorn Lady, Art Blakey leads a brief but blazing mid‑60s Jazz Messengers lineup at The Lighthouse, launching a young Keith Jarrett and Chuck Mangione in a hard‑bop set that feels both like a proving ground and a joyous passing of the torch.
Folk Music
*100 copies limited edition* Originally released in 1986, Folk Music stands as one of the most uncompromising statements to emerge from the Japanese industrial underground. Created by Jun Konagaya after the dissolution of White Hospital, the album marked the beginning of Grim as a singular and fully autonomous project. Influenced by the early extremity of SPK and Whitehouse, Konagaya developed a sound built from metallic percussion, distorted bass pressure, detuned organ textures and heavily pro…
