Long overdue reissue of the first Windy & Carl album and first ever vinyl pressing. Originally self-released by the duo as a cassette in 1994, Portal set the template for their singular sonic explorations to come. “…ethereal soundscapes that will transport the listener to other plains of reality.” —Acid Test! “Carl layers willowy guitar arpeggios, foggy keyboards, and chimes over Windy’s murmured intonations and rippling basswork. Everything sounds fresh and unaffected in the careful hands of th…

America Amore Amaro unites Remigio Ducros and Luciano Simoncini in a vibrant 1977 odyssey where Italian library-funk meets cinematic daydream. Through swirling flutes, scorching horns, and groove-heavy rhythms, their album refracts American culture with bold, experimental flair rooted in the golden age of Italian soundtrack artistry.​​

The debut album of the French master improviser from the early 80s finally available again! her impressive release-list over the years - solo, duos, trios, big projects – shows a range of works with most of the current improvisers, to new music (Cage, Scelsi) and dance and theatre with two main constants - playing live plus the celebration of improvisation.

277 pages. 196 x 268 mm. Open NOW JAZZ NOW and you're not just looking at a book - you're entering the minds of three lifelong obsessives. Byron Coley (music writer and critic), Mats Gustafsson (saxophonist, The Thing, Fire!), and Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth founder, solo artist) have spent decades accumulating, discussing, debating, and above all listening to free jazz and free improvisation. This book is the result of that shared mania. What they've created isn't a conventional history or a ra…

On Cooked, Oren Ambarchi folds his all‑star studio jam aesthetic into something gloriously unhinged. Two side‑long epics twist piano ripples, synthetic “voices,” mutant trumpet tones, electric Miles haze and digital pyrotechnics into a foot‑tapping, brain‑scrambling, joyously cuckoo ride that still feels meticulously shaped.

First archival volume of the Swiss pianist and composer Lotti Tauber: minimalist, intuitive piano music from her privately pressed albums of 1981-1986, restored and mastered by Stephan Mathieu.

On KKKAAARRREEENNNIIINNNAAA, Charlemagne Palestine, Oren Ambarchi and Daniel O’Sullivan turn a 1997 “magic song” for a beloved dog’s spirit into a towering trio ritual. Organ drones, phase‑drifting cassette voices, Leslie‑swirled guitar and viola blooms coil around Palestine’s keening live chant, forming a single, dense, ecstatic invocation that feels like a séance conducted inside a vibrating cathedral.
