Cambodian Nuggets
Tip! **Edition of 500 ** Before the Khmer Rouge took power in 1975, unleashing a horrifying genocide, Cambodia had one of the most vibrant and exciting music scenes in Asia. With a mixture of traditional Khmer music and a myriad of western genres (from French and latin music, to rock-and-roll , rhythm-and-blues, surf, psychedelia, soul and many more) the few pre 75 Cambodian recordings that survived -most of them were destroyed- are enough to make anyone with a taste for good music shocked by th…
The Loa Of Music
Italian experimental music is notoriously resistant to definition and location. If ever there was an object to encapsulate the spirit of that movement, it is the composer and musician Roberto Musci’s debut album from 1984 - The Loa Of Music. Recorded after a decade traveling the world - drifting between African, Indian, and the Near & Far East - studying music, making field recordings, and collecting instruments, not only is it a perfect culmination of such an experience, but a lens into the rig…

Quiet Days in Cliché
Uncorking the well of wit, whimsy and cool, refined fury that’s fueled his path around this world, Mayo Thompson pours out a new round: a first ever album of solo guitar music, not to mention a first solo album in almost forever, Quiet Days in Cliché.
With The Red Krayola, Mayo made three albums of pop music in the late 1960s, taking the idea of rock ‘n roll songs farther into the hoped-for realms of possibility than 98% of their psychedelic brethren before or since. Following the demise of the …
Strewn with Crimson
Wil Bolton’s forthcoming album, Strewn with Crimson, is an evocative sonic portrait of East London’s Lea Valley. Shaped by the region's wetlands, marshes, and industrial edgelands, the project weaves together site-specific field recordings, found objects, modular synthesis, and processed acoustic instruments. The album’s title draws inspiration from the wild poppy and herb-robert flowers growing across derelict Victorian filter beds, symbolising a complex landscape where rich biodiversity and ec…
Leitmotiv
*200 copies limited edition* After a string of acclaimed albums, Maxine Funke should need little introduction. With Leitmotiv, she surprises us once again, this time with five quiet, soft yet haunting pieces that slowly reveal themselves. Her distinctive voice almost whispers its way through keyboard tones and field recordings, moving somewhere between silence and melody, intimacy and unease. While having a dip into a more experimental bath, Funke remains deeply connected to her folk tradition. …

The Necks 18th album Vertigo is an eventful, kaleidoscopic tone poem set against a darkly shimmering background.

We’ll Let You Know When We Find Out
*200 copies limited edition* "This record is the crystallization of a friendship and musical partnership that started when Sonelius and I first met in 2012, when I was making my documentary on Rahsaan Roland Kirk – The Case of the Three Sided Dream. Sonelius appears only briefly in the film, and that’s mainly because of his ethereal approach to conversation, answering questions, and life, really. He doesn’t so much answer a question, rather, his responses usually generate more questions and are …
Aventüren
"Still flying under the radar but already something of a cult figure, Baldruin has patiently shaped a singular musical world where mystical synth folk meets a deeply personal vision of traditional music, drawing equally from Eastern and Western sources. On Aventüren, Johannes Schebler expands this universe even further, offering a unique take on musical minimalism refracted through his own dreamlike aesthetic.Raised in the rectory of a small Bavarian village, Schebler spent his childhood as an a…

Hold On to Your Dreams Arthur Russell and the Downtown Music Scene, 1973-1992(Book)
*2023 stock* Hold On to Your Dreams is the first biography of the musician and composer Arthur Russell, one of the most important but least known contributors to New York's downtown music scene during the 1970s and 1980s.

This revival of interest gained momen…
