Black Case Volume I and II: Return From Exile
Last copies...Joseph Jarman (1937 - 2019) was a saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist best known as a founding member of trailblazing avant-garde jazz group Art Ensemble of Chicago. Jarman was responsible for the Art Ensemble’s signature face paint and elaborate costumes as well as the pioneering theatrical and multimedia elements of their shamanistic performances, which could include dance, comedy, performance art, surreal pranks, and—notably—the recitation of Jarman’s poetry. In 1977, Art Ense…
zakè (20th Anniversary Edition)
Although this is zakè’s debut release on PITP (2019), these arrangements were originally created in 2006. Sharing a fitting description of the label name with the release, it truly is the ‘Past Inside the Present’. These time-worn selections unfold like a slow-moving cascade, quiet, delicate, and gracefully drifting. The understated arrangements weave together warm, ambient drones that shift from faint lo-fi textures, while sinewy mid-tonal synths sway between idle afternoon reflections and hazy…
L'Oeuvre Electronique
2025 Small Repress. Incredible 14xCD lavish box set, a 16+ hour compendium of the electronic music key works from one of the most important electronic composers of the 20th century complete with a 106 page book. Born between wars, Eliane Radigue’s musical journey began in the Paris studios of musique concrète OGs Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry during the 1950s and 60s, experimenting with magnetic tapes, honing her craft in sound construction. But it wasn’t until the 1970s when Eliane moved to…
Metafisiche del Suono
For fans of the Italian avant-garde, few names inspire the loyalty and devotion offered to the percussionist and composer Lino Capra Vaccina - a perfect emblem of the country’s extraordinary movement of musical Minimalism. He first gained note as a member of Aktuala, a project which laid the groundwork for a entire generation of practitioners following in their wake - creating a hybrid of rock, avant-garde, and ancient musics, while incorporating a diverse number of sonic traditions from across …
Blood Blood Song
"Blood Blood Song continues East of the Valley Blues’ streak of sublime, future-forward acoustic fantasias. For years, the Toronto-based duo, comprised of brothers Kevin and Patrick Cahill, has excelled at an earthy and pensive brand of instrumental music inspired by notions of folk music as a global, rather than regional, idiom.While the duo’s elegant and unassuming virtuosity easily distinguishes East of the Valley Blues from its contemporaries of would-be Bashos and fledgling Faheys, it is th…
For Baritone Sax, Double Bass & Drumset
This 2013 meeting of baritone saxophonist Daunik Lazro, bassist Joëlle Léandre, and drummer Paul Lovens is a deep dive into spontaneous creation at the highest level of free improvisation, uniting three of Europe’s most adventurous and seasoned improvisers. Drawing on decades of individual and collaborative experience within the global improvised music scene, the album explores extended dialogues across timbre, texture, and breath, where Lazro’s rich, expressive saxophone language meets Léandre’…
In Reggae Time
Cinedelig/Jamdung proudly presents the first repress of the rare UK compilation In Reggae Time (originally 1970) as a limited-edition 12" picture disc. Unearthed from original 7" single sources issued around 1967 on Ember Records and its sub-labels, this repress collects exceptionally rare UK tracks that sit at the crossroads of late‑’60s British youth culture—only marginally reggae, they instead deliver a vivid fusion of mod, R&B, ska and northern soul with the era’s restless energy preserved i…

Fight Fire With Fire
Latest release by Joachim Nordwall on Stellage.
Kicking A Dark Horse
The third release in Greyfade’s Folio format—a full-length music edition in hardcover book form—is Josh Mason’s Kicking A Dark Horse. For his Greyfade debut, musician and sound artist Josh Mason presents an ambitious multi-modal work articulated across sound and text: a 9-track electronic album alongside a book-length work of experimental writing. Across both forms, Kicking A Dark Horse is governed by controlled instability—chaotic structures that cohere without repetition and evolve without res…
Five Stagings
Recorded in high summers and brutal winters in 2022 and 2023, Nightingale Floor’s debut album Five Stagings takes the listener through a quintet of spontaneously conjured and patiently crafted pieces for a quartet of musicians scattered across North-West England. Manchester-based poet Lauren McLean provides voice and words, joined by cellist Josh Horsley of Preston duo Powders, Benjamin D. Duvall of Liverpool four-piece Ex-Easter Island Head on sound collages, strings and trombone, with Tombed V…
Curse You, Foreign Lands
A 14-track tape pulling together rural Greek demotika recordings from the late 1930s to the mid-1950s. Soaring pentatonic improvisations, odd-metered rhythms, and vocal performances oscillate between heartbreaking laments and ecstatic celebrations.
Astral Disaster (Prescription versions)
3LP triple set featuring all the Prescription versions and the newly created AD II artworks by Steven Stapleton. The booklet features all lyrics, extensive liner notes and sheds light on the interesting circumstances of the creation of this Coil release by Gary Ramon who not only instigated the sessions but also provided the haunting location for their recordings. Has been respectfully and expertly remastered by grammy-nominated Jessica Thompson. Artwork by Steven Stapleton design & layout by Ol…
Introspection
Brazilian guitar music has a way of folding the whole century into a single instrument, and few players carried more of it in their hands than Luiz Bonfá. Most listeners know him through the songs he wrote for Orfeu Negro, the ones that helped carry bossa nova out of Rio and across the world. Introspection, cut for RCA in 1972, is the quieter counterweight to that fame: eight original pieces for solo guitar, recorded at a moment when Bonfá had stopped chasing the hit and turned inward.
The Ipcress File
Quartet Records presents its fifth newly recorded release of a classic film score, and its third devoted to the music of John Barry, following Séance on a Wet Afternoon and the three television films starring Katharine Hepburn. The unforgettable music of this five-time Oscar-winning composer continues to be celebrated around the world, and the impact of his innovative scores for dozens of films from the 1960s through the ’90s still reverberates today. The Ipcress File, directed by Sidney J. Furi…
Piano Music
Two short pieces built from piano recordings made by Orphax at De Ruimte in Amsterdam Noord during summer 2017. The 7-inch marks a deliberate break with his usual drone vocabulary, foregrounding more openly melodic ambient writing and treating the piano as the primary voice rather than as raw material. One of his most personal works to date, dealing in textural terms with closure, regret and the slow effort of moving on.
Iguana
Carlos Giffoni reconnects with Thurston Moore for the first time in years, blazing through two sides of loose-limbed axe noise, oscillator worship and hard-phased, Spacemen 3-style feedback.
Giffoni's been on a roll recently. Since the No Fun founder returned to the scene with 'Vain', a genius set of synth mutations that appeared in iDEAL back in 2018, he's been slowly ramping up the activity, dropping the celestial 'Dream Walker' on Stephen O'Malley's Ideologic Organ in 2024 and following it wi…
Halt
Foetus is one of the major musical projects of NYC composer JG Thirlwell. Halt is the final Foetus album, and the first Foetus album in twelve years. It completes the cycle of an arc that began in 1981 with the first Foetus album Deaf. Thirlwell worked on Halt on and off over a period of eight years. As with each album he has made, he wanted to reinvent the music, use new forms, innovate and introduce new surprising forms into his musical palette, at the same time as feeling like a leap forward.…
Heroin
Recorded by Stephan Mathieu and Ekkehard Ehlers over the single week between Christmas 2000 and New Year 2001, and originally issued that same year on the Dutch imprint Brombron, Heroin remains one of the great curiosities of early-laptop electronic music: a record that arrived bearing an ambivalent, faintly transgressive title and contained almost the opposite of what that title implied.
The album sits at a precise moment in both composers' arcs. Mathieu, originally a drummer and a co-founder o…
Brandstichters & Oplichters
May this raw and vivid poem by ‘Manfred Tragil’ sketch the absurd picture of our European tour with Liam Grant. As Liam went further down the road, we were invited for a two-day residency with Tashi Dorji at ‘Dropa House’ - the new project of Koen Vandenhoudt & Christel Kumpen. This record contains our opening duo-set for the first night of that residency and was recorded live by Koen Vandenhoudt & Yves Demey. All the sounds contained in this record are 100% improvised - with a little help from …
