Long Strings 1982-2011 (book)
*2022 stock* An account of the production of Dutch composer and visual/sound artist Paul Panhuysens long string installations, which crossed a range of spaces in various ways and were, in fact, sound sculptures that could be played. Over a period of 30 years Panhuysen made more than 250 long string installations in many locations around the world, drawing attention to the perception of our environment and the ways in which its parameters are detected, transformed and analysed by our senses, simu…
Live At Club 19 Pori Finland 20th April 2005
*Please note, this is a vinyl only release. There is no digital download at all. Just the vinyl* Few bands carry the weight of history with such light-footed grace as Träd, Gräs och Stenar. More than just a group, they are a living conduit for the currents of collective expression, resistance, and transcendence that have defined Sweden’s underground music landscape since the late 1960s. Their sound—raw, organic, and untamed—has pulsed through decades, defying the strictures of genre and time, th…
Live At Teater Tribunalen
Huge Tip! ** Edition of 300.** The long overdue first proper jazz album on Discreet Music!

Sincretico Modale
**LP version. Individually hand numbered strictly limited edition 300 copies in premium white audiophile virgin vinyl** "Exclusive sleeve notes by Paul Roland, John Greaves, Michael Tanner and Max Marchini. Produced by Max Marchini. A decisive step forward, a new milestone in the extraordinary discography of Lino Capra Vaccina. An album of iridescent introspectivity; a mandala of unheard sounds, a new way for contemporary minimalism. My collaboration with Lino has led me to discover recesses, re…
Gal Costa
A lot changed between Gal Costa's pleasantly straightforward 1967 debut Domingo and her eponymous follow-up two years later. Domingo, also a debut for young Brazilian songwriter Caetano Veloso, featured a set of airy, somewhat standard bossa nova tunes, sung ably by Costa. Mere months after the release of this relatively safe debut, however, Costa and Veloso found themselves alongside Os Mutantes, Tom Zé, and Gilberto Gil, recording contributions to Tropicália: Ou Panis et Circencis, the unoffic…
Aurinkovuosi
Aurinkovuosi brings together five cassette singles made by J. K., which were originally released in small editions (10 copies each) by Vuosi label during 2018–2022.

The duration of the compositions were determined by the cassettes found at the flea markets on which the original recordings were released.

Sauco

Each track is an exploration of sound's constant transformation, akin to dragonfly particles swimming in the air. Like waves occupying a space in the spectrum, the compositions work with the movement, condensation, and lightness of the air.

Carnaval 2
Adding to their already singular catalog of releases, Three:Four Records returns with Carnaval 2, a stunning new work by the composer Alessandro Bosetti, performed by pianist Reinier van Houdt. A vividly conceptual and post-modern hybrid, reinterpreting Robert Schumann's Carnaval as a radically reconsidered series of piano and electro-acoustic interludes - forcing the sensibilities and aesthetics of 19th Century chamber music to coexist with those of avant-garde - it's easily one of the singular…
Down Another Road
Down Another Road @ Stockholm Jazz Days '69 catches Graham Collier’s sextet in full flight, turning a cornerstone studio album into a raw, expansive live ritual where luminous themes, tough grooves and free-leaning episodes collide, sketching British jazz at the cusp of its most exploratory moment.

Regular Nurse With Woun…
Angelic Music
"In 1978 Iasos returned with a new album consisting of two long peaceful compositions, The Angels of Comfort and Angel Play. These pieces are extremely soothing, heavenly, loving, and peaceful, and they capture the energies of love on a galactic scale. They function as a universal healing comforting presence.This genre of music could be termed "classical New Age music". The philosopher Alan Watts has said, "Iasos is doing the classical music of the New Age." This album is a "vibrational environm…
Nocturnal Rainforest
The first collaboration between Japanese noise titan Masami Akita, aka Merzbow, iconic Brazilian drummer and producer Iggor Cavalera and forward-thinking Italian guitarist and sound designer Eraldo Bernocchi, 'Nocturnal Rainforest' terraforms a sonic landscape that's almost overpoweringly dense and disorienting, but never aggressive or chaotic. It's a fully immersive experience that re-contextualizes the trio's years of work in extreme experimental music by concentrating on texture, atmosphere a…
Shri Camel
Terry Riley’s Shri Camel is a meditative masterwork blending the feeling of eastern music with repetitive electronic patterns, obtained using a modified Yamaha YC-45D combo organ tuned in just intonation and augmented with digital delay. In C and Rainbow in Curved Air get all the ink (inc?), but its own somewhat subtle way, 1980’s Shri Camel, the last of the three brilliant albums Terry Riley recorded for CBS, is every bit as groundbreaking as its hallowed predecessors. Not content to rest on hi…
