Web Of Midnight
*100 copies limited edition* Corum’s Web of Midnight traces an astral cartography and psychic linkage between the psychosexual laboratories of Wilhelm Reich’s Orgonon in Rangely, Maine all the way to the Mount Teide Volcano on the Canary Islands. Different facets of the album were recorded in these charged locations causing the music to erupt with an orgasmic and volcanic force, a subconscious blast and discharge of etheric earth energy channeled through shimmering electronica. Babbling voices t…
A Frauta De Pã
Big tip! Fifty years on, and it still sounds like a secret. Carlos Walker's A Frauta de Pã remains one of those rare Brazilian albums that collectors circle obsessively, its original RCA Victor pressings commanding reverence - and prices - entirely disproportionate to the world's awareness of it. That wait is now over.
Recorded in 1975, when Walker was just 19 years old, A Frauta de Pã arrived at a precise confluence in Brazilian music - that charged mid-decade moment when MPB (Música Popular Br…
Waves of Perfect Timbre: Recordings 1982-1987
Leon Lowman is a California-based autodidact musician and painter who traces his interest in synthesizers to a specific moment: hearing ELP's Lucky Man in 1970. At the time he was working for various recording studios and sound companies in the state, and with his first paycheck he made a down payment on an ARP 2600 synthesizer and a Mediamix Joystick for pitch bending, equipment he still used at the time of this reissue. Everything he could spare after that went toward more gear. He wrote much …
The Performative Word (Book)
The first monograph on John Giorno (1936-2019), poet, performer and activist who brought the written word off the page and into life. Accompanying the MAMbo Bologna retrospective, it maps six decades of radical practice at the crossroads of poetry, art and political action.

On Recordings 1982–1987, YU - Dwaine Woodliff, his brother David and Gaylon - turn Austin’s DIY tape underground into a lo‑fi philosophy lab, smuggling post‑punk, bedroom electronics and dark humour into concept‑cassettes about how not to come apart.
Requiem in the Sun / Re-Musick / Demise Symphonika
This is the first in a series of various compilations to come with a focus on the 80’s japanese Minimal/Synth/Wave and electronica. While Japan is very known for the Japanese Noise (almost as Germany is known for NDW (Neue Deutsche Welle) or 70’s Kraut (Progressive).Electronic Music this aspect of the 80’s Japanese Music Culture still seems to be less explored and exposed to the interested listeners. In the early 80’s you had several outstanding labels such as Vanity releasing great artist…

Volcanic Tongue: A Time-Travelling Evangelist's Guide to Late 20th-Century Underground Music (Book)
In Volcanic Tongue, David Keenan gathers decades of visionary criticism, charting late‑20th‑century underground sound through ecstatic essays, interviews and close‑listening dispatches that treat marginal scenes as the true engines of musical modernity.
Take me, I’m yours
On Take Me, I’m Yours, Alan Abrahams and Jan Jelinek dissolve the border between song and sound design: multi‑layered vocal sketches are stripped of harmony and beat, re‑sculpted into fragile, pulsing landscapes where house‑born emotion drifts through Jelinek’s grainy abstractions.
The Darker Side Of Rising Sun (Japan March 6 & 7, 1972)
2026 stock A famous Pink Floyd bootleg is back in circulation as a limited-edition collector's item of just 350 copies, all hand-numbered, containing three 180-gram colored LPs, a 20-page booklet, a poster, and a reproduction of the concert ticket. The tracklist draws from the shows on March 6 and 7, 1972, in Tokyo, the first dates of a Japanese tour during which Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Richard Wright, and Nick Mason performed a live, not-yet-final version of “The Dark Side of the Moon” (wi…
Xerrox
Xerrox Vol. 1 is the third studio album by German electronic artist Alva Noto. It was released in 2007 as part of the ongoing Xerrox pentalogy, based on the concept of digital replication of source material.
Using the process of copying as a basis, the Xerrox series deals with the manipulation of data through endless reproduction. Due to the inherent fallacy of making copies from other copies, everyday sounds become so altered that they are hardly associated with their source material. As a resu…
Divine Music From Jail
Oidupaa Vladimir Oyun was a Tuvan musician and a man with an amazing, but really heavy destiny, a man of unbending will and divine talent and the creator of a unique style of throat singing, accompanied by playing the button accordion. Researchers described Oidupaa's style as blues and emphasized the complexity of this style of performance, which requires the singer to exert a lot of tension on the vocal cords. This is the author's unique version of the deepest and most powerful type of throat s…
Orbital
The Outskirts came together as a working band during bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten’s three-year stint as a Chicagoan from 2005-2008. They played regularly at all of the working venues for improvised music in Chicago at that time, including The Hungry Brain, The Velvet Lounge, The Hideout, and Elastic. They even made a live recording in April 2009 that they were eager to release. But unfortunately, the multi-track audio files were lost in a hard drive mishap, leaving only a barely usable rough m…
Start Soft
*Limited edition of 100 copies* In 2017, Oli Heffernan took to the stage in Dundee to play bass for Damo Suzuki, the legendary former frontman of Can. Backed by a one-off ensemble featuring Griff (Interrobang / Regular Fries), Harry (Chumbawamba) and E-Da (Boredoms), the group walked on with no rehearsal and no plan. Suzuki offered a single instruction — “start soft” — and the set unfolded from there.
Like all of Suzuki’s performances, the music was entirely improvised: tense yet fluid, explorat…
Anichy & Lyemn
Anichy & Lyemn reduce electronic sound to patient, glowing essentials: slow harmonic rhythm, canons, repetitive phrases and gently shifting layers, across two unreleased remix pieces that treat minimalism less as a genre tag than a way of feeling time stretch and fold.
Industry
The performance and recording are one continuous set. Track markers have been added for convenience:.
Liner notes:
"This project began as Centrifugal Trio, with Bishop, Borghini, and Griener, recorded in the studio zentri-fuge in Berlin in September 2019 and released on the Astral Spirits label.
For my visit to Berlin in 2022, I wanted to expand the group, and invited the wonderful Mia Dyberg on alto, who I had played with earlier at Sowieso in Berlin, and whose recording Ticket!

Recordings 1980-84
Mike Vamp grew up in Frankfurt, played guitar in the early punk scene, then moved to West Berlin in 1980 and began experimenting with electronic music and synthesizers as the city's famous wall-era underground was at its most electrically charged. West Berlin in the early 1980s was defined by the painters of the Geniale Dilletanten movement and the music of Einstürzende Neubauten, Malaria!, Die Tödliche Doris, Sprung aus den Wolken, and Die Haut: a scene that celebrated difficulty and abrasion, …
Postcards
Gen Ken Montgomery ran a tiny record shop and sound art gallery called Generator in downtown New York — one of the first such spaces in the city — and it was from here that his practice took shape. A self-taught autodidact with no formal training in music or art, Montgomery built his first tape in 1981, Gen Ken and Equipment (150 copies), from cheap synthesizers, toy instruments, household gadgetry, and electric machines: an ice crusher named Icebreaker, an aquarium pump, a refrigerator, a shoe-…
Romancing The Music
Through the dense blend of Japanese New-Wave, set against a backdrop of moldy kimonos and punctured paper screens, Hip-See-Kid's mini-LP, Romancing The Music, emerges like a sonic bullet train, carving its way through the chaos of sound and emotion. Overflowing with purebred Punk-Funk, shards of Soul, and threads of shredded Jazz, this album is nothing short of a gold nugget in a sea of sadness.
Romancing The Music captures a unique fusion of genres, delivering an audacious auditory experience t…
Tape Works 1981-85
The finest German Minimal Synth from the early 80s NDW underground, finally given the deluxe treatment it deserves. Jürgen Schweighart, working under the Bowie-inspired moniker V2 Schneider, was one of the true hidden figures of the Neue Deutsche Welle era - not quite punk, not quite goth, but something altogether more singular and strange. Operating out of basements and towers in the south of Germany with his band Blindgänger, Schweighart created a body of work that sits comfortably alongside t…
