Then Again
November 1978. Henry Cow disbands after a decade of music that redefined the boundaries of experimental rock. November 2022. Four founding members return to the stage. Not to look back - but to improvise the present. Fred Frith (guitar, violin, electronics), Tim Hodgkinson (keyboards, saxophone, lap steel, electronics), Chris Cutler (drums, percussion), John Greaves (bass, vocals): the original core reunited under the name Henry Now. The key is in the name - as Clive Bell noted in The Wire, this…
Jardim Elétrico
Jardim Elétrico (1971) is a vibrant and inventive entry in the Brazilian band Os Mutantes’ discography, marking the transition beyond the core Tropicália movement into a heavier, more experimental blend of psychedelic rock, Brazilian popular music, and early progressive influences. The album balances playful irreverence with darker, more electric textures, featuring distorted guitars, studio experimentation, layered vocal harmonies, and the charismatic interplay between Rita Lee, Arnaldo Baptist…
Pioen
*200 copies limited edition* The album was recorded in a small chapel of a monastery in the city center of Ghent. A chapel, by nature, is a place of contemplation and meditation, which inevitably influenced the music. Movements slow down, attention is sharpened and the overwhelming silence of the space becomes part of the music. Sound and silence are meticulously woven into each other. Even when the music grows at times dense and heavy, there is an ever-present sense of closeness and intimacy. T…
Paysages Planétaires
Paysages Planétaires on Alga Marghen may be the great unrecognized masterpiece of ethno-electroacoustic music, a 3CD box that arrived in 2004 with almost no fanfare and has waited two decades for ears ready to hear it. Henri Pousseur and Michel Butor, collaborators across forty years and more than twenty works, here achieve something that resonates uncannily with Jon Hassell and Brian Eno's "Fourth World" concept. Yet Pousseur, the serialist pioneer who worked alongside Karlheinz Stockhausen and…
Declensio
On Declension, Sissy Spacek’s core duo John Wiese and Ch. Mumma condense their most feral impulses into two mid‑2024 blowouts, erecting sheer walls of cascading electronics and scorched‑throat vocals that feel like being dropped into a collapsing star.
Portuguese Man-Of-War

The name comes from the French for "noise world" - Monde Bruits, the project of Shohei Iwasaki (岩崎昇平, 1962-2005), a figure whose significance to the entire architecture of Japanese noise exceeds what the relatively small scale of his recorded output might suggest. It was Iwasaki who organized Masami Akita's first Merzbow concert in Osaka - a founding act of the network that would, over the following years, connect Japanese noise to…
Refugee / On The Move
2026 stock, reduced price ** Original Single Sided, Numbered **
Nagoya produced a noise and improvisation scene that ran largely parallel to the Osaka-Tokyo axis - less documented, less exported, but no less intense. Dislocation was one of its legendary formations, a collective comprising Toyohiro Okazaki, Yoshimei Yanagawa, Keishi Kiyokawa, Fujio Kimura, and others, whose name appeared alongside Merzbow, C.C.C.C., Masonna, Monde Bruits, Solmania, Incapacitants, and Violent Onsen Geisha on the …
Materialism Rock
2026 stock, reduced price ** Original Single Sided, Numbered **
Deisel Guitars was the name under which Youki Noseyama (能勢山陽生, born 1967) first operated - a duo formation that preceded his long solo career as Diesel Guitar and, later, under his own name.

The sound o…
呪術装置
2026 stock, reduced price ** Original Single Sided, Numbered **
Among the more enigmatic entries in the Vanilla Records catalog - and one of the rarest. 藤圭子's ダーク・ポップ is a cassette about which almost nothing has been committed to public record, which is itself a kind of document: the extreme scarcity of information surrounding certain Vanilla releases is inseparable from the conditions under which the label operated, pressing in tiny numbered editions for an audience of a few hundred at most, …
Psyché II
Psyché II is the sophomore album from the Neapolitan band formed by Marcello Giannini, Paolo Petrella, Andrea De Fazio, and Roberto Porzio. While their debut was rooted in the myths of the Mediterranean, Psyché II pushes beyond those borders. Here, the sea is a living, vibrant route connecting shores and cultures—from North Africa to Brazil, from the Middle East to Colombia.
The Mediterranean becomes a crossroads of different peoples, traditions, and sounds: cosmic jazz, desert blues, dub, Anat…

One of the greatest bands in the world, said the New York Times; A post-jazz, post-rock, post-everything sonic experience that has few parallels or rivals, according to The Guardian; Fifty years after Kind of Blue, the new music I would find it hardest to do without is that produced by The Necks, circumlocutes Richard Williams.

Music for Intersecting Planes
On Music for Intersecting Planes, Kali Malone and Leila Bordreuil braid organ, cello, sine waves and feedback into a candlelit nocturne of air and overtones, an austere yet tender ritual where space itself becomes a third instrument.
Introduction
On Introduction, Shub Niggurath emerge fully formed from the demo underground: a pre‑Les Morts Vont Vite monolith where Zeuhl extremity, chamber‑avant rigor and Lovecraftian dread coalesce into slow, abyss‑gazing marches that feel like doom metal’s evil twin from another timeline.
At Source
Caterina Barbieri & Bendik Giske's At Source resounds music as wellspring, that which is essential and unknowable, and yet utterly primary. It finds two acclaimed composer-musicians building a world together in self-contained collaboration between analogue synthesis and an extended approach to the saxophone that conjures its own universe of sound. It is at once intimate and cosmic, drawing on the challenges and possibilities of their artistic exchange, tearing down technique to access all the ex…

Astral Disaster
At the turn of the millenium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors!
