Slow Dazzle
Following on quickly from Fear, and capitalizing on that album's energy Slow Dazzle is another fiery release by Velvet Underground founder John Cale.
This reissue faithfully replicates the original 1975 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180 gram vinyl. Released in March 1975, initially, the album offers a false sense of mellow security: "Mr Wilson", a tribute to Brian, the leader of Cale's beloved Beach Boys starts the album on a much sweeter note than "Fear Is A Man's B…
Whatevershebringswesing
A founder member of Soft Machine, Kevin Ayers embarked on a solo career in 1969, signing to EMI's Harvest label, for whom he would record a series of wonderful and stylistically eclectic albums. 'Whatevershebringswesing' was issued in November 1971 and saw contributions from David Bedford, Robert Wyatt and Mike Oldfield. Featuring such classic tracks as 'Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes', 'Song from the Bottom of a Well' and 'Whatevershebringswesing', the album is regarded as one of Kevin's finest. …
The Academy In Peril
John Cale was never very kind to his solo debut, Vintage Violence. When it was released in early 1970, Cale had been out of The Velvet Underground for less than two years. He wanted to prove he could be the songwriter, the person penning the words and melodies behind which a band could work. “I was masked on Vintage Violence,” he wrote much later. “You’re not really seeing the personality.” Indeed, Cale’s personality as a polyglot seemingly interested in everything emerged more and more on his n…
Paris 1919

Includes Previously Unreleased Outtakes & a Brand-New Recording** John Cale was never very kind to his solo debut, Vintage Violence. When it was released in early 1970, Cale had been out of The Velvet Underground for less than two years.

Helen Of Troy
Recorded quickly between John Cale producing Patti Smith's Horses and his going out on an Italian tour, Helen Of Troy became Cale's third and final studio album for Island Records.
This reissue faithfully replicates the original 1975 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180 gram vinyl. Helen Of Troy is a raw, fascinating listen. The title track with its horns and spoken word is one of Cale's best: after the sweet bubblegum of "China Sea", the album gets increasingly strippe…
Fear
This reissue faithfully replicates the original 1974 Island Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180 gram vinyl. Fear marked Cale's return to recording in London after the best part of a decade in America. Signing to Island Records, he made fast friends with two key admirers, Phil Manzanera and Brian Eno, who assisted him in returning his music to the rawer sound of his earlier work, as opposed to the lush textures of his previous studio album, Paris 1919. The tense, clipped "Fear…
Re-Make Re-Model

Issued as a beautifully produced, highly limited Book / 2CD edition, capturing these two legendary artists mining the other's deep catalog of recordings, reworking an astounding 16 tracks into more than 100 minutes of blistering, radically experimental music, w…
Adnos I-III

Packaged in a heavy duty 3CD jacket much like the recent Eleh releases and containing extensive archival materials.Eliane Radigue has composed for magnetic tape and electronic media since the late 1950's…
Focus Intensity Power
BJ Nilsen's first LP for the label, departing from his field-recording practice. Recorded during a Fall 2017 residency at Willem Twee Electronic Music Studio in Den Bosch, the five pieces document improvised sessions on modular synthesizers, tone generators and laboratory test instruments. The flâneur's ear, normally trained on wind or city traffic, is here turned on machine-generated material: analogue pulse, droning waves and subtle noise arranged with the same patient sense of texture.
Requiem For George Maciunas
A vital tape work returning to circulation thirty-six years after its private cassette debut. Mieko Shiomi's 1990 memorial for George Maciunas, self-released that year on a privately circulated cassette and unheard in proper edition since, now receives a first ever CD reissue, mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi. In accordance with the composer's wishes, this edition presents the work's two sides spliced together into a single continuous piece.
By 1990 Shiomi had already lived several musical lives. A f…
Floating Frequencies / Intuitive Synthesis I
When Eleh's debut Floating Frequencies/Intuitive Synthesis I was originally released it was praised as a powerful piece of new electronic minimalism. Twenty years later the artist's legacy has grown while Eleh continues to hypnotize new listeners with time stopping music. Critics, fans and neurologists have praised the music of Eleh as aiding attention and focus while seeming to slow time. Eleh's slow change drones are a state of flow hypnotizing listeners into meditative focus. From the origina…

Do What You Fear Most: The History of the Velvet Underground
Few groups have exerted an influence so out of proportion to their commercial fortunes as The Velvet Underground. Formed in New York in 1965, the band sold modestly across four studio albums and had effectively dissolved by the end of the decade, yet the sound it built - the drone, the controlled noise, the plain-spoken songs about subjects pop had left untouched - became one of the foundations on which the next half-century of rock was laid.
Music for Real Airports (Box set 2)
Music for Real Airports is a multimedia art project by musicians the Black Dog and interactive artists Human which is presented in art galleries. It is also a new CD of music by the Black Dog. It is a response to the reality of occupying the semi-public space of an airport, and a contemporary reply to Brian Eno’s work from the ‘70s. Airports are important and revealing. They are dystopian microcosms of a possible future society. The necessity of safety requires that they be systems of human cont…

Paysages Planétaires
Paysages Planétaires on Alga Marghen may be the great unrecognized masterpiece of ethno-electroacoustic music, a 3CD box that arrived in 2004 with almost no fanfare and has waited two decades for ears ready to hear it. Henri Pousseur and Michel Butor, collaborators across forty years and more than twenty works, here achieve something that resonates uncannily with Jon Hassell and Brian Eno's "Fourth World" concept. Yet Pousseur, the serialist pioneer who worked alongside Karlheinz Stockhausen and…
