No Becoming
*200 copies limited edition* Nashville-born, Minneapolis-based musician and artist Lee Noble has been active in the American noise underground since the early 2010s. His landmark LP, No Becoming, was originally released on cassette in 2011 via Sweat Lodge Guru (Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Sparkling Wide Pressure), followed by a limited-edition vinyl reissue in 2013 courtesy of Bathetic Records (Angel Olsen, Tashi Dorji, Daniel Bachman). 15 years later, No Becoming has achieved cult-classic s…
Sahkomies
On Sähkömies, Jimi Tenor fuses lo‑fi drum‑machine electronics with smoky, Sun Ra‑indebted jazz, announcing himself as techno’s first cabaret surrealist. Recorded alone in a New York apartment and released on Sähkö/Puu in 1994, the album’s eight roughcast tracks turn bedroom gear, cheap synths and tenor sax into a playful, futuristic minimal‑acid songbook.
Variations for Light Waves
On Variation for Light Waves, Linnea Talp deepens her dialogue with the pipe organ, stretching it toward breathy extremes where foggy harmonies, brittle overtones and glints of electronics hover like weather systems suspended between memory and illumination.
Nebular
Created by correspondence between Christchurch and London, Nebular pairs Roy Montgomery's decaying post-rock, folk and drone guitar with Martha Skye Murphy's wordless, glossolalic voice. Stems traded by email at nocturnal hours, raw emotion launched into a time capsule for the stars.
Dar-As-Suhl Vol. 1
The name Kymatik is derived from the Greek word "Kyma," meaning "a great wave," and was used by Swiss physicist Hans Jenny as a descriptive term for the effects he saw using amplified tones to manipulate/create patterns in fluids and powders. More recently, Jenny's research has led him to use these findings in a clinical environment for both therapy and healing. These ideas and the use of ambisonic surround-sound equipment are the underlying influences on this CD. On this CD, there are both envi…
College Tour (LP)
Early 1980's Italian re-issue on Base Records of the 1969 album featuring Giuseppi Logan and Dave Burrell.
Luna Surface
A landmark in avant-garde jazz returns: the definitive, remastered edition of Alan Silva’s 1969 Paris session for BYG’s Actuel series. Leading his 11-piece Celestial Communication Orchestra — with titans like Anthony Braxton, Archie Shepp, and Grachan Moncur III — Silva channels the raw, boundary-pushing energy of the New York free jazz explosion. Deluxe packaging, restored artwork, and new liner notes by Kevin Le Gendre complete this long-sought treasure. Originally released in 1969, this explo…
Future Present Past
Future Present Past is the second Impulse! Records album by the free jazz collective Irreversible Entanglements. The album was largely recorded at the historic Van Gelder Studio and showcases how the quintet fuses atmospheric jazz, world music traditions, and spoken word with the story of our collective existence: a future full of possibilities, a present with all its uncertainties, and a past as a source of ancestral wisdom.
Irreversible Entanglements, formed in Brooklyn in 2015, consists of p…
Another Perfect Day
Eight years since his last solo electric guitar record. Bill Orcutt returns to what made his playing essential: slashing chords, frenzied double-picking, angular runs that climb and ricochet. Recorded live at Cafe OTO. No computer loops. No gentle melodic glow. Just Orcutt and his four-string Fender through a tattered Twin Reverb.
Music and Words 3
Coming 8 years after Volume 2 and 23 years after the first installment, Volume 3 of Music And Words is the 4th solo release by Adam Bohman on Paradigm Discs. All 4 releases have focused on his earliest recordings, mostly from the 80s, mostly domestic and all using cassette recorders. There are 4 principle styles that are employed in this early phase of Adam’s work - most unexpectedly there are songs, often constructed with trumpet as the lead instrument, then more typically there are improvised …
Two Balls Are Enough
The debut album from the duo of Finnish accordionist Kimmo Pohjonen and Swedish reedist Mats Gustafsson - both musicians have routinely blown past the rules of the traditions from which first emerged—folk and free jazz, respectively—to explore constantly expanding worlds. It was only a matter of time before these iconoclasts collided to create something wonderfully raw and unexpected.
Time drops
This mini-CD follows on from Akemi Ishijima's previous electroacoustic composition on Variations 2 -- A London Compilation. It includes one new piece and a reissue of "Ab Ovo," previously released on 5 Composers Second Coming on Fylkingen. The two pieces explore a broad range of traditional electronic techniques, both subtle and powerful. "Time Drops" (2000) -- a single stroke of a bell, in its decay, sometimes evokes a sense of infinity in our mind. "Time Drops" is an attempt to express such id…
Cybernetics III / Contrappunto Dialettico Alla Mente
Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl. A reissue of one of the most singular documents in Deutsche Grammophon's legendary Avantgarde series - a single LP that sets two radically opposed ways of working with magnetic tape against one another, both realized within months of each other at the same address: the Studio di Fonologia della RAI in Milan.

Nothing Is New In This Room Except The Dust
With Nothing in this room is new except the dust, Ivan The Tolerable returns not to a room but to a weather-beaten tract of being — a north-facing interior where wind has a voice and the light is a thin animal nosing the corners. The trio who forged Black Water, Brown Earth and An Orphan Form — Oli Heffernan, Mees Siderius, and Elsa Van Der Linden — move here with the patience of creatures that have learned the seasons of each other’s blood. If the earlier records surveyed land, this one digs in…
Cosmic Century
The third album from Wallenstein, originally released in 1973, stands as the band's definitive statement and one of the peak achievements of the entire Kosmische Musik movement. Led by keyboardist Jürgen Dollase and guitarist Bill Barone, the group had evolved from their earlier heavy progressive sound into something far more expansive and cosmic in scope.
Cosmic Century is exactly what its title promises - a journey through infinite space rendered in swirling synthesizers, celestial guitar work…
The Seddon Tapes: Volume 1
Numbered edition of 500 copies Comes with 8 page 12" booklet Thanks to Dan Wilson for the segues on side 2 Special thanks to Sandra Cross, Miles Champion and Ed Baxter.

Woman's Colours
One of the most iconic Italian library music albums ever, Woman’s Colours by the Giancarlo Barigozzi Group (with Sergio Farina and Oscar Rocchi) emerged from Milan’s vibrant studio scene. Originally released in 1974 under the supervision of Fabio Fabor, it’s a refined concept work blending jazz-funk, jazz-rock, bossa nova and exotica, featuring Wurlitzer, Fender Rhodes, fuzz guitars and expressive flutes, balancing groove and elegance. Over time it has attained cult status, now regarded as a cor…
Muster
*250 copies limited edition* "Whenever I perform a concert, which is usually a one-off, I like to try something new that I have prepared and rehearsed. It's very rare to return to the music afterwards and record a studio version. On 25 November 2023, I played a concert in Münster, Germany, and I was very pleased with how it turned out. However, because I was given 30 minutes, I felt it was a bit rushed, and I recorded a new version at home shortly afterwards.
The inclusion of shortwave radio sou…
Dalok
*300 copies limited edition* Adela Mede & Štefan Szabó never set out to make an album. United by their Slovak-Hungarian heritage and a deep love for folk music, they initially started meeting weekly to sing... just sing. Both coming from very different musical backgrounds, each brought distinct characteristics and elements to the table. Over the course of roughly a year, they met almost weekly, each bringing Hungarian folk songs that they found on old vinyl records, scouring internet archives or…
