At the turn of the millenium the original „Astral Disaster“ subcription-only vinyl release was somewhat of an Unholy Grail for Coil collectors!
Virtually unobtainable in its original fiercely limited format of only 99 copies, it is the only album apart from the original „Musick to play in the Dark“ record to combine the genius of Balance and Sleazy with both Drew McDowall and Thighpaulsandra's talents. Like „Musick“ it is an essentially tidal/lunar record with literal washes of sound enveloping …
A foundational record. The opening chapter of one of the most singular spiritual journeys in European music. Esoteric returns Affenstunde, the 1970 debut of Popol Vuh, to vinyl on July 31st, 2026, freshly cut at AIR Studios in London, with the original cover artwork restored and an accompanying poster. When Florian Fricke brought a Moog III modular synthesiser into a Munich studio in 1970, alongside percussionist Holger Trülzsch and engineer Frank Fiedler, he was working with one of only a handf…
Departing from a run of releases for Discus Music featuring mainly large group composition, this stripped down, free-blowing session features a group of great players on top form, delivering music which is in turns heavily incisive and delicately traced. Dunmall himself has never sounded better than he does here.
Sixth release in the MFR Contemporary Series. Greek trio Eventless Plot (Liolios, Giatas, Tsirikoglou), joined by bass clarinetist Chris Cundy, take recent research on music and Alzheimer's disease as starting point: that music helps both retrieve old memories and lay down new ones. Two long compositions are built from repeated patterns creating familiarity, then gradually layered with shifting tone combinations. Instrumentarium includes psaltery, tape (Revox A-77), modular and bass clarinet.
*150 copies limited edition* This compilation continues a path that Unexplained Sounds Group has been developing over time, following the earlier CD project inspired by Eraserhead. While that release focused on the cinematic origins of David Lynch’s language, this new work turns its attention to Twin Peaks, the television series created by Lynch and Mark Frost that profoundly reshaped the relationship between narrative, sound and perception on the small screen. First broadcast in 1990, Twin Peak…
a groundbreaking musical project by Nate Wooley, unites legends like Paul Lytton (Evan Parker’s longtime collaborator) and David Grubbs (Gastr Del Sol, Bastro) in an ecstatic sonic journey. Inspired by Thomas Merton’s spiritual exploration, the piece transcends religion, channeling the raw energy of free jazz and modern noise. Premiered at NYC’s Festival of New Trumpet Music, it blends improvisation, ambient textures, and bold experimentation—a testament to Wooley’s visionary artistry.
'Vigil’ is an installation by Caterina Barbieri and Ruben Spini originally conceived for the 180 Studios exhibition Future Shock in 2022, and more recently presented at The Vinyl Factory: Reverb exhibition in 2024. The composition was originally released with the title ‘The Landscape Listens’ as part of Caterina Barbieri’s album Spirit Exit, published by light years in July 2022. Widely recognized as a young pioneer of electronic music, Caterina Barbieri is the new Artistic Director of the Music…

Each performance over the course of the exhibition will be recorded, pressed and screen-printed live inside the gallery. This performance is from Okkyung Lee.A native of Korea, Okkyung Lee has been developing her own voice in contemporary cel…
Jazz saxophonist Akira Miyazawa was known for his unparalleled love of fishing, and here he gives a masterful performance that conjures the image of silvery fish scales reflecting light through the cold and clear water of a small mountain stream. “Yamame” (the Japanese name for a kind of freshwater salmon) was recorded in 1962 and was Miyazawa’s first album, but the sharpness and avant-garde modernity of the music creates a completely timeless quality. Miyazawa is one of a group of musicians who…
Here's for the real thing! Sixties Japanese Garage/Psych Rarities Vol. 2 uncovers a lost vein of cosmic rock from late‑1960s Japan, presenting a vivid collection of raw, psychedelic sounds from the heart of the Group Sounds movement. This second volume brings together rare singles, private-press gems and previously uncompiled studio cuts that reveal how Japanese bands absorbed and reimagined Western garage, soul and acid rock into something entirely their own.
Featuring early and hard-to-find re…
*2026 repress* Iconic Norwegian producer and composer Biosphere follows up his evocative 'Angel's Flight' release with a new album set for release early in 2022. Shortwave Memories is an album inspired by the post-punk electronic music of the late 70's and early 80's, especially the productions of figures like Martin Hannett and Daniel Miller. "The last few Biosphere albums have all been made using samples and software, but Shortwave Memories is a return to vintage analog hardware from the late …

Darla is pleased to offer a new record of string quartets by Harold Budd. Bandits of Stature is a first as it comprises 14 compact Budd composed string quartets played by the Formalist Quartet.
LP version. With Sowas von Egal Vol 3, the Hamburg-based Damaged Goods DJ team continues its compilation series on Bureau B, once again turning its attention to the underground scenes of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland in the early 1980s. The selected tracks originate from a period in which, alongside the commercial Neue Deutsche Welle (NDW), a number of innovative and often more abrasive bands and artists operated outside the mainstream. They combined influences from new wave, synthwave, post…
*2026 stock* This is the first recording by the unique trio of Tetuzi Akiyama (guitar), Toshimaru Nakamura (no-input mixing board), and Masataka Fujikake (drums). This is a full album of six songs recorded at the now-defunct Asagaya Yellow Vision and is an isolated work in which the inner universe of the three members is clearly imprinted on the disc.
* Edition of 199 copies * Government Alpha, the project of Yasutoshi Yoshida, is one of the central figures in Japanese harsh noise, emerging from Tokyo's early 1990s underground scene. Through his Xerxes label, he developed a style that is both extreme and meticulously constructed, balancing ferocity and precision with remarkable control. Even at its most chaotic, every sonic eruption feels carefully placed.
Originally released on cassette in 1994, The Human Race Was Restored To Life Repeatedly…
Edition of 350. Built from three episodes, Stato Interessante turns on the experiences of women facing pregnancy and abortion in an Italy on the edge of profound change, the country's debate over reproductive rights reaching its height in the months before the 1978 law. Nasca, working from a script co-written with Maurizio Costanzo, frames intimate character study against broader social observation, with a cast including Janet Agren, Monica Guerritore, Duilio Del Prete and Turi Ferro.

"Another mind-blasting slab from the band that emerged from the exquisitely raw chaos of Up-Tight. Guitarist Aoki Tomoyuki, who founded and led Up-Tight from 1992 to 2024, is one of the prime exponents of Japanese string-based underground insanity. His approach combines the psychedelic flow of White Heaven's You Ishihara with the scuzz-dynamism of High Rise's Munehiro Narita and the experimental distentions of Fushisusha-era Keiji Haino. Up-Tight's records were all sold blurts of N Generation Ja…
**2026 Stock ** Machine-numbered edition of 500 copies on wine-red vinyl in a deluxe heavy-duty cover with metallic silver embossing. Chromanatron is the new album from Nurse with Wound, collages of no less than 5 albums by the mythical German band from the late 60s Sand. These five psyche-experimental-krautrock albums include their first oddity Golem, that NWW discovered a long time ago and represented straight away a great source of inspiration for him. A great dedication to Sand, and hat-in-h…
* Edition of 300. Spectacular four-panel gatefold cover * Since the early 1980s, the Nexus creature has represented one of the most interesting realities of the Italian jazz scene. Daniele Cavallanti (Aktuala) and Tiziano Tononi (Moon On The Water and D.O.M Alia Orchestra) realize a sensational mix of orchestral praxis and impro-free jazz. The strength lies in the ensemble's variety of timbres, in that precise hybrid of styles reminiscent of the cross-sectional experiences of the 1970s of Zappa,…
