Sound Sun Pleasure
Sound Sun Pleasure was recorded in Chicago at the same March 1959 sessions that produced the instrumental album Jazz In Silhouette, and features near-identical personnel. However, the recordings sat on the shelf for over ten years, finally achieving release in 1970. Whereas Silhouette was comprised of Sun Ra originals, Sound Sun Pleasure explores two works Sunny co-composed with trumpeter Hobart Dotson and four standards, two of which ("'Round Midnight" and "Back In Your Own Backyard") are sung …
Music to Freak your Friends and Break your Lease
2026 stock. It is genuinely difficult to place Rod McKuen anywhere in the twentieth century. He read alongside Kerouac and Ginsberg at the Jazz Cellar in San Francisco in the early 1950s, sang with Lionel Hampton's band, worked as a contract player at Universal, and cut the beat-poetry record Beatsville for HiFi Records in 1959. The early 1960s took him to France, where his encounter with Jacques Brel produced the English versions of Ne me quitte pas and Le Moribond that entered the language as …

Sottana & Calze
On this split cassette, Sottana & Calze’s The Gloria and The Rita collide in a sharply focused post‑industrial ritual. Trifurcated contact mics, woolen stockings and monophonic chants meet the Canadian project’s obsessive “canes” study, pressed onto dual‑color shells as a rare Canadian/Italo‑Norwegian collaboration built for XXI Congresso Post Industriale.
The Final Painting
Time stands stunningly still on The Final Painting, the dreamy, elegiac final album from legendary underground singer-songwriter/poet/painter Ed Askew.
Thresholds
On Thresholds, Andrew Anderson assembles a disquieting tapestry of foley‑like detail, field recordings and dream logic, a vinyl debut where precise sound art slips into phantasmagoria, hovering at the edge of memory, image and pure atmosphere.

The Will Of Tongues
The most ambitious work of Sarah Davachi's career to date. Spanning more than two hours of music across three LPs, The Will of Tongues arrives on the composer's own Late Music imprint as a vast, deeply considered statement - a meditation on the act of listening itself, and on the mental spaces that sound, given duration and reduction, continually opens.
Over the last decade, Davachi has emerged as one of the most singular voices working at the intersection of minimalism, early music, and electro…
Leavings
*200 copies limited edition* Following the acclaimed previous album "Transcend", which seamlessly traversed experimental electronics and obscure Techno-infused structures, Frederic Arbour returns with his most daring and transformative work to date. "Leavings" marks a decisive departure from established forms. Where its predecessor gradually evolved through recognisable rhythmic frameworks and narrative progression, this new album ventures into increasingly abstract territories, dissolving conv…

Celestial Ocean
*2026 repress* 1973s brilliant Celestial Ocean, by the legendary Swiss krautrock band Brainticket, is a concept album that details an ancient pharoahs journey into the afterlife (substitute the word "journey" for "trip" and youll get what they were driving at).

Model Express
Cindy Lee, the performance and songwriting vehicle of Canadian artist Patrick Flegel (who fronted influential indie group Women earlier), previously stunned listeners with Act Of Tenderness, a heart-wrenching statement informed by the noirish core of celebrity, and has continued to enchant with every album, including the startling What's Tonight To Eternity released earlier this year.
Model Express originally appeared as a self-released edition of 100 gold cassettes. The arch, filmic drama of Ci…

Anichy & Lyemn
Anichy & Lyemn reduce electronic sound to patient, glowing essentials: slow harmonic rhythm, canons, repetitive phrases and gently shifting layers, across two unreleased remix pieces that treat minimalism less as a genre tag than a way of feeling time stretch and fold.
Methylmercure
One of the most important sound sources in history, a relic of a bygone era.
