The Crystal Suite
On The Crystal Suite, Paul Schütze channels J. G. Ballard’s The Crystal World into slow‑burn electronics and guitar haze, rendering time‑sick landscapes where matter ossifies, light fractures, and contemporary collapse glows with eerie, faceted calm.
Sunset and Forever
Sunset and Forever finds Cindytalk once again stepping into the faultline between collapse and renewal, extending a project that has always treated the band itself as sculptural material to be broken apart and reformed. From the earliest days of Camouflage Heart and In This World, Cinder’s vision fused post‑punk dissonance, industrial dirge, and abject rock deconstruction with a strangely luminous vocal presence – the same voice that threaded through early This Mortal Coil and Cocteau Twins reco…
En De Stilstaande Tijd
Continuation of the same piano source material used on the Piano Music 7-inch, here developed into a long-form work. Orphax takes a postcard he bought in a Spanish village in 2001, while studying geology, as imaginative axis: the tranquillity of small houses, church and sand road as a place where time appears to stand still. The album builds organ-like, slightly dissonant tonal fields whose slow evolution renders that frozen-time atmosphere as patient, quiet, nostalgia-saturated ambient drone.
Savana Selvaggia
Savana Selvaggia collects two previously unreleased tracks by Giuliano Sorgini, highlighting one of the most visionary and experimental aspects of his library music: from an imagined African landscape through atmospheric melodies and analogue electronics ("I misteri del mondo"), to a mystical sound world where African and Middle Eastern influences merge with futuristic electronic textures and Krautrock-inspired rhythms (“Arabian Synthesizer”).
Crafted in his own Cat & Fox Studio in Rome, these …
Backside
** 2026 Stock ** 300 copies in Dark Crystal vinyl. The enigmatic sound architects of Nurse With Wound return with Backside, a haunting new studio album that bridges four decades of underground sonic archaeology. Released through Rotorelief in an exquisite limited edition pressing, this latest opus represents Steven Stapleton and Andrew Liles at their most revelatory, breathing new life into fragments of the long-lost Bladder Flask sessions from circa 1980. The paths of Nurse With Wound and Richa…
Somewhere in the Wind
Somewhere in the Wind is the third record that Loren Connors and I have made together. Of the three, it’s the first that consists exclusively of electric guitar duos and it’s the first that was recorded live. To me it feels very much like a live record; this music happened in crowded rooms in Brooklyn on two dates in 2025 and there’s an urgency to connect with others and a pleasure in doing so that can be heard on both of these tracks. On the first of our duo records (Arborvitae, 2003) I primari…
No Way Out
Essential 1967 garage-psych debut by Chocolate Watch Band, raw prototype of protopunk energy with volcanic guitar work and inflammatory vocals by Dave Aguilar channelling Jagger like nobody else. Distorted riffs, cosmic psychedelic legerdemain, killer covers of Stones material.
Schall / Rechant
A discreet but essential figure in the field of musical creation, Horacio Vaggione has been crafting an ambitious, precise and highly significant body of work for over the last fifty years, coupled with a demanding research activity. This disc offers four purely electroacoustic pieces which illustrate, each in their own way, this singular and fascinating grammar developed by Horacio Vaggione, a complex but fertile grammar which establishes a very special relationship between structure and textur…
Cantor Park
300 copies, black vinyl. Sometimes records just vibrate with a magical aura propagating endless energy and timeless positionment. Stefano Pilia & Valerio Tricoli have been maestros in their respective careers when it comes to dancing between modern concrete, unimagined landscapes and electroacoustic experiments slowly creating and almost hand-sculpting two of the most singular paths in the European avant garde scene.
After their long tenure in experimental collective 3/4HadBeenEliminated (Häpna,…
Scale
Scale, addresses issues of observation, embodied transferences, telepathy and duration employing swipes, knocks, resonators and hypnotic patternings on the acoustic harp with the less controllable sounds of radio waves, homemade synths and feedback. Inspired by the timings and sensations of natural phenomena including daylight’s slow emergence at dawn and the pulsing ambiance of ocean currents. Nature as both utopic and disruptive. Attention is situated in an often luscious, contemplative sonic …

no record
"In 1965, eight guys from London, Ontario, decided to start a free-improv group — 'free' to the point of building their own instruments, which they decided couldn't be set up to produce specific pitches... Their vocalist, schoolteacher Bill Exley, banged on a cooking pot and bellowed hilariously about stupidity and destruction and Canada. They didn't treat what they were doing as an advanced, visionary form of experimental music, but as a big, stupid, fun, ecstatic noise. By the '90s, noise arti…
Split
Tip! *245 copies limited edition* Overjoyed to announce the release of this monumental record featuring two very different sides of the free-improv coin, pressed on heavyweight 180 gram mixed color vinyl. This intergenerational, wide-minded split LP blurs the hedges of national borders and the traditions of composition, marking a niche interzone inhabited solely by the uncles of punk and their experimental stepchildren.
Canadian noise pioneers, Nihilist Spasm Band, deliver a ripping side-long o…

The album was released in 1971 by Kuckuck Schallplatten.After travelling extensively in Asia in search of spiritual and creative inspiration, Deuter settled for a long time in Pune, India, where under the name Chaitanya Hari he became a neo-sannyasin - a disciple of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh.

A Mid Autumn Night’s Dream

The four giants of new music never played together before. As the lights turned off something magic started. A spontaneous interplay, an amazingflowing of notes.

Colori
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and EMI General Music, presents a CD reissue of Ennio Morricone’s iconic album Colori, celebrating its 55th anniversary. In the summer of 1971, Morricone entered the legendary Orthophonic Studios in Rome alongside his longtime collaborators Bruno Nicolai, Alessandro Alessandroni and Edda Dell’Orso, and recorded a selection of ten tracks drawn from some of his recent film scores, many of which had not yet been released. He remixed some cues and re-record…
Reference: Miles Davis’ 3rd Quintet Bitches Brew Live 1969 in Europe
"The shock and awe that Bitches Brew produced within and without the jazz world on its release in March 1970 was largely unexpected, the result of the music’s uncompromising power and what many felt to be its perplexing, eccentric sound and structure. In retrospect, we know how Miles’ unconventional studio methodology and Teo Macero’s subsequent compositional editing of the voluminous taped material innovated the remarkable finished product. But what has only marginally been discussed is the ext…
This Heat
"There's an irony inherent in the term 'postpunk.' Many of the groups that define the genre (think Pere Ubu or Cabaret Voltaire) existed for several years before punk. But these outfits had little hope of finding an audience until punk stirred up an appetite for the extreme, while also spawning a new breed of independent labels that could support challenging music. " This Heat are a prime example. Formed in early 1976 by drummer Charles Hayward, guitarist Charles Bullen and 'non-musician' Garet…
