Where Light Pauses in the Silence of the Sun
*300 copies limited edition* In spring 2025, Abul Mogard and Rafael Anton Irisarri created the source material for their second album, Where Light Pauses in the Silence of the Sun, during a three-day residency at Morphine Raum in Berlin. Functioning as both recording studio and performance venue, the space has no stage, with the audience gathered around the performers. Working within an open framework, the duo reshaped the music each evening while recording the performances live to multitrack. R…
In den Garten Pharaos
Mystic Synthesis at the Dawn of Electronic Consciousness! Florian Fricke's visionary second album remains a towering achievement in transcendental electronics
The Heart Is a Lotus
On The Heart Is A Lotus, The Michael Garrick Sextet with Norma Winstone trace a quietly radical path through British jazz: modal, spiritual and poetically inclined, with Winstone’s voice drifting inside the ensemble like vapor rather than standing in front of it.
Flirty Ghost
Flirty Ghost is an evocative LP by Rachel Kitchlew, a jazz and contemporary harpist known for pushing the boundaries of her instrument. A blend of jazz, ambient, and experimental sounds, the album was crafted in a spontaneous, deeply personal atmosphere, recorded late at night in the cozy, smoky setting of SFJ headquarters.
Inspired by everything from Henry Mancini to Dorothy Ashby, this LP captures an eerie, playful essence, like a ‘flirty ghost’, while celebrating exploration and self-expressi…
Sanctioned Departures
On Sanctioned Departures, William Selman lets two rainforests - Pacific Northwest and Costa Rica - compose themselves, braiding tidal lagoons, primates, saunas and street sweepers into humid, borderless environments where categories dissolve like shorelines under floodwater.
Backwards
A decade after its long-awaited release, Coil's landmark album Backwards returns in a special 10 year anniversary vinyl reissue. The black vinyl edition comes in a gatefold matt-laminate sleeve with silver detail, honoring the album's elusive, mercurial nature with understated elegance. After the ground-breaking release of 1990's Love's Secret Domain, Coil were not dormant - far from it. The main project was Backwards, which was started in 1992, updated considerably between 1993 and 1995, and tr…
The Manson Family Sings The Songs Of Charles Manson
Recorded at the infamous Spahn Ranch in 1970, while their leader Charles Manson was facing trial for the murder of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, The Manson Family Sings is a highly disconcerting listen. Beneath the harmonic brilliance and folksy innocence of these campfire-styled recordings are the hallmarks of Manson’s twisted worldview, rendering a dystopian edge to what is otherwise compelling singalongs. Squeaky Frome, Brenda Gold, Gypsy Share and Sandra Blue all feature, with Clem Grogan fron…
Vents d’aether
»vents d’aether« is the first collaborative album by sound artist Jérôme Bouve and composer-performer Delphine Dora for Hallow Ground. The six pieces are based on live improvisations on organ and harmonium. They were recorded in different churches on the Cotentin peninsula in France’s Normandy region and later enriched with additional field recordings by SA~RA. This adds an extra layer to compositions which were created both in and out of the moment and which quite literally resonate with the hi…

Tribal Ghost
** 2026 restock, long out of print - few copies available ** Here’s an astonishing fact: This album was recorded during John Tchicai’s first and only weeklong residency at a New York jazz club. Tchicai — co-founder of the New York Art Quartet, one of the most innovative bands of the 1960s; member of Albert Ayer's New York Eye and Ear Control; participant in John Coltrane’s Ascension, perhaps the most influential of Coltrane’s late works; practitioner of world music-jazz fusions in bands such as…
Wa Wave: New Wave Sounds from the Land of the Rising Sun vol. 2
On Wa Wave: New Wave Sounds from the Land of the Rising Sun vol. 2, various Japanese artists push deeper into the margins of 80s New Wave, blending Kraut‑tinted repetition, minimal synth, and glass‑fragile chamber pop into a set of tracks that feel like dispatches from a parallel underground.
Oblivion Seekers
On Oblivion Seekers, Ben Vida turns everyday speech into a glowing maze: neutral‑toned duets, drifting chamber textures and collaged overheard phrases dissolve meaning and sound into one long, entrancing mantra of language in motion.
La lune
*50 copies limited edition* Even for a prolific artist such as Delphine Dora, 2026 is a very busy year with the release of three albums already before the end of April; the harmonium and vocal improvisations of ‘D’une nostalgie inconnue’ on Akti, the impressionistic piano and keyboard instrumentals of ‘L’ineluctable du temps’ on Marionette and the church organ explorations of ‘Vents d’aether’ made in collaboration with Jérôme Bouve for Hallow Ground. ‘La lune’ is another impressive addition to D…
Mussolini ultimo atto
On Mussolini ultimo atto, Ennio Morricone turns the final days of Mussolini into tense, tragic chamber drama, fusing pared‑back orchestral writing, unnerving timbres and fragile lyricism into a score where history feels like a slow, inexorable noose tightening.
Resonance of Time
Electronic lullabies and folk songs from Ethiopia! A landmark recording from Ethiopia’s vibrant cassette era of the 1980s, Resonance of Time features pioneering composer Wesenyeleh Mebreku reimagining Ethiopian folk melodies through the humble circuitry of an early Casiotone keyboard. Historically, the works featured on Resonance of Time (የጊዜ ቃና Yegizie Kana) stand as quiet documents of Ethiopian musical memory. Many of the original songs included in this release emerged during important moments…
Images of Life
Images of Life is the career-spanning, 3xLP retrospective boxset illuminating the staggering breadth and depth of Detroit's unheralded songwriting genius, Ted Lucas. Disc one "Strange Mysterious Sounds (1965-1970)" highlights Ted's flirtation with psychedelic major label clout via his bands the Spike Drivers, the Misty Wizards and the Horny Toads. "Rainy Days (1970-1974)" will be the solo acoustic warmth and charm most familiar to folks already aware of Ted's self- titled "OM" album from 1975. "…
Morgen
*2026 stock* US heavy psych masterpiece from 1969. Powerful sound and recording with thunderous drums, piercing fuzz guitars and the incredible vocals of Steve Morgen. Formed as Morgen’s Dreame Spectrum in 1967 in NY, Morgen were one the first bands signed to ABC’s offshoot Probe Records (home also of Soft Machine in the US).
Fuelled by the chemistry between ace guitar player Murray Shiffrin and creative songwriter/singer Steve Morgen, they recorded their self-titled album in 1968 but, much to t…
