Five Elements
A 2015 collaboration between Jojo Hiroshige on guitar and Haruo Ueda on electronics, structured around the natural elements. The Hijokaidan founder steps away from pure noise into a more textural dialogue, his guitar set against Ueda's shifting electronic fields. On Alchemy.
Retiro Espiritual
Following the release of Ganzfeld, the Tenerife-based octet returns with Retiro Espiritual, their fourth full-length album and the second chapter in an ongoing improvisational document recorded inside one of Santa Cruz de Tenerife’s abandoned oil tanks.
Gaf & The Love Supreme Arkestra work outside conventional studio frameworks. Their music emerges from extended improvisation sessions that unfold sporadically, sometimes over several days. Built around drums, guitar, bass, modular synthesis and s…
Antologica 1977 - 1990
On Antologica 1977 - 1990, Filippo Testa emerges from the Turin electronic underground as a quietly radical miniaturist, tracing thirteen years of music where chamber instrumentation, liturgical stillness and SMET‑forged electronics converge into a lucid, introspective panorama.
Puff
*300 copies limited edition* New from Ulla’s 28912 label comes a gorgeous bouquet of lowercase wonders from Justin Cantrell aka J and the Woolen Stars, part of Picnic, and the brains behind the excellent Daisart and se Dessaisir Publishing labels.
»Puff« is a glistening pool of lush refractions and music-box lullabies, featuring an array of acoustic instruments and fragile foley sounds that are gently peeled away until all we’re left with are the faded outlines of half-remembered songs.

The Organ is the Worlds Greatest Syntesizer
**Limited edition of 222 copies, black vinyl two color screenprinted cover** At eight o'clock on a March morning in 2024, as Amsterdam awakened around it, Charlemagne Palestine took his place at the console of the Vater-Müller organ in the Oude Kerk—the city's oldest building, a Gothic monument dating to 1306—and opened a portal. What emerged over the following forty-plus minutes, now captured on this limited edition LP, stands as one of the most concentrated distillations of Palestine's six-dec…
Broken Landscapes
Follow-up to Atsusaku (2016) by Gareth Davis (bass clarinet) and Merzbow. The earlier theme of mechanical compression is here extended into a meditation on the fears of mechanisation in the natural environment: North Sea wind farms, Southern Californian industry, the survival of animals in overrun habitats. Three tracks of impenetrable manipulated field recordings against saturated bass clarinet midrange and Merzbow's analogue/digital crossfire, with brief recognisable voices flashing through.
May Spring Last a Lifetime
'May Spring Last a Lifetime’ is the first duo release from improvising tenor saxophonists Tom Challenger and Evan Parker. The album emerged after years of informal practice sessions; then, following two live performances, the duo recorded this session at Arco Barco in Ramsgate. The album is Evan Parker’s fifth appearance on the False Walls label. Evan: “Duo is the simplest form of group playing. And so it’s the simplest, the purest in a certain sense, and the most challenging. There’s nowhere to…
Alice The Goon
On Alice The Goon, Nurse With Wound stretch a single bad dream into half an hour of delirium: queasy not‑quite‑“easy listening” that mutates from lounge lilt to industrial throb, like a Popeye cartoon left to rot in a dripping underground cinema.
Clarity
To mark 50-years since a 22 year old Michael Gregory Jackson recorded his groundbreaking first release, "Clarity / Circle / Triangle / Square", recorded with the mind blowing group of his contemporaries Oliver Lake, David Murray and Leo Smith. This album is like no other I know, a new world, finding a perfect balance between multiple genres. Moved-By- Sound is very excited and honored to be involved in releasing the first reissue authorized by Michael Gregory Jackson since the original release i…
Tales from the Source
Discrepant presents the LP edition of Tales from the Source, the original film soundtrack by Bear Bones, Lay Low and Laszlo Umbreit. Originally composed for Belgian-Congolese artist Léonard Pongo’s 2024 film of the same name, this release reworks the film's audio into a continuous, fluid listening experience.
The album is built on a direct contrast between heavy electronic manipulation and raw environmental audio. Laszlo Umbreit captured the foundation of the record through field recordings and …
Out To Lunch
Much-needed repress. First-time vinyl release. Old-style gatefold LP with liner notes by Kahimi Karie, Otomo Yoshihide & Tonoyama Taiji. Reissue, originally released on CD in 2005. Eric Dolphy's final studio album is hailed as one of the finest examples of mid-60s post-bop. Dolphy, having recorded the album in February 1964, was in Europe less than six weeks later and his all-too-brief life ended less than two months after that. It marked his last flurry of original compositions and is considere…
Exile
"Drift was a relatively short-lived project created by Gabriele Giuliani. Better known through his notorious nom de plume, Dead Body Love. Within the course of only a few short years, Drift released a dozen sought after releases on such legendary imprints as Slaughter, Old Europa Cafe, SSSM, Harmonie, and his own Less Than Zero, before fading behind the curtains Exile was not only the debut release by Drift, but also the beginning to a trilogy of cassettes released on Slaughter Productions. It …
The Beyond
"Second in the trilogy of Drift albums released on SlaughterProductions, The Beyond takes on a minimal yet darker approach, sheding the dense cavernous aspect of the preceding album, Exile. Replaced, is a more introspective Autumnal Dark Ambient style, which will become Drift's trademark on following releases. However, Gabrielle Giuliani never abandons the isolationist atmosphere he previously established. The result is a masterwork in Ambient Industrial Noise.
Winds howl, rain soaked leaves ar…
Earthquake
"On Earthquake, the third and final cassette released on Slaughter Productions, Drift takes on a slightly different angle to the previous two cassettes. Where as The Beyond and Exile were firmly planted in pitch black ambient territory, the desolation on Earthquake is Saharan. Bright, Sirocco, and sun scorched. Afterall, who said Dark Ambient needs to be cold? In a sense, the listener is transported to an abandoned archaeogical dig while faint middle eastern tones waver in and out of the surfac…
Urban Sax 1
Much-needed reissue of these incredible LPs. Urban Sax's debut LP was issued in 1977 on Cobra, recalling the best Terry Riley, stunningly psychedelic, it’s the perfect combination of hazy, fluttering psychedelia and tough, tactile reed work. Urban Sax was created in 1973. Gilbert Artman, the mastermind behind Lard Free -who has also participated in dozens of recordings by other artists of the French experimental scene that included Delired Chameleon Family, Clear Light, Komintern, etc.- develope…

A New Score For Koyaanisqatsi
** White vinyl ** Dark-folk songwriter Chantal Acda and beyond drums-percussion musician extraordinaire Eric Thielemans propose a new score for Koyaanisqatsi, re-actualizing the incredibly beautiful, raw, rhythmic, and touching images of this '80s cinematographic masterpiece. Slow deep electric waves, lonely synths in sonic desert landscapes, rhythmic pulses, transporting drums and bells, and deeply longing sounds and voices make up the audible fundamentals of this imagined, neo shamanic, ritual…
Where The River Goes
Where The River Goes carries the story forward from Wolfgang Muthspiel’s highly-acclaimed Rising Grace recording of 2016, reuniting the Austrian guitarist with Brad Mehldau, Ambrose Akinmusire and Larry Grenadier, heavy talents all, and bringing in the great Eric Harland on drums. Much more than an “all-star” gathering, the group plays as an ensemble with its own distinct identity, evident both in the interpretation of Muthspiel’s pieces and in the collective playing. The album, recorded at Stu…
