States
States grew from a live-electronics setup developed by Tijs Ham (Tapage) in 2016: analogue feedback routed through digital manipulation to form a self-balancing, self-generating chaotic system, capable of producing its own deep melodic and textured material once the performer steps back. The 2017 sessions at Steim with bass clarinetist Gareth Davis insert a reed voice into this recursive system, opening it to spacious interplay between acoustic gesture and the autonomy of the patch.
ИМА (イマ)
Tip! ИМА (Ima) is a work by KiMiMi, the solo project of musician Shin-ya Ohno, which captures the layers of time and the presence of people inhabiting ‘Arimasuton Building’—a self-built structure created over 20 years by architect Keisuke Oka, located in Mita, Tokyo, and reconstructs them into music. A multi-instrumentalist who masterfully handles a diverse range of instruments, with the gaida (an ancestor of the bagpipes) – which he studied in Bulgaria – at the core of his sound, KiMiMi has pre…
Wormhole
Kreng transports us through the swirling darkness and into the unknown with “Wormhole”, his first album in over a decade. What does a trip towards another world sound like? We’re about to find out. The master of tension, melancholy, and the deranged is back after a long period working in the worlds of theatre and cinema. Last seen on Miasmah with the grief stricken The Summoner, Kreng now returns with Wormhole, following closer in the footsteps of the cult classics L’Autopsie Phénoménale de Dieu…
Novos Baianos F.C.
“Novos Baianos shaped an entire generation of Brazilian music — their sound is pure freedom.” — Caetano VelosoOriginally released in 1973, Novos Baianos F.C. captures the band’s communal lifestyle and fearless experimentation. After the success of Acabou Chorare, the group expanded their sound into a vibrant mix of samba, choro, folk, psychedelia, and electric street-soul.With the unmistakable chemistry of Baby Consuelo, Pepeu Gomes, Moraes Moreira, Paulinho Boca de Cantor, and Dadi, the album r…
Members... Don't!
Members… Don’t! is the tour-de-force new release by acclaimed drummer and composer Tyshawn Sorey that offers a bold reinterpretation of Max Roach’s potent album Members, Don’t Git Weary, connecting its message of resilience in the face of struggle to the present day. It follows on a string of albums from Sorey that feature pianist Aaron Diehl, the latest of which – The Susceptible Now (Pi 2024) – received 5-Stars from Downbeat, which describe it as “a garden of sonic ecstasy… Sorey’s trio conjur…

Smog
On Smog, Piero Umiliani weaves Italian cinematic cool, West Coast jazz and vocal chiaroscuro into a quietly devastating portrait of early‑60s Los Angeles, with Chet Baker and Helen Merrill tracing the city’s alienated glamour in smoke.
Ptah, The El Daoud
2026 repress * Grey-area LP reissue, perfect replica of the original * Ptah, the El Daoud, recorded and released in 1970, is the third solo album by Alice Coltrane. The album was recorded in the basement of her house in Dix Hills on Long Island, New York. This was Coltrane's first album with horns (aside from one track on A Monastic Trio – 1968 - on which Pharoah Sanders played bass clarinet). Sanders is recorded on the right channel and Joe Henderson on the left channel throughout. Coltrane not…
Entain.
The Keplar label presents the next instalment in a series of reissues from the catalogue of Sasu Ripatti’s seminal Vladislav Delay project. Originally released on Mille Plateaux, the vinyl edition of »Entain« from 2000 omitted two shorter tracks and included all others in an abridged form. With this reissue, the full album as it was pressed on CD is finally made available on vinyl. Besides a new remaster by Kassian Troyer, it was also given new cover artwork by Marc Hohmann that picks up on that…
Siticidelhous
Companion volume to Parkustomnie, drawn from the same 2016 sessions at the Conservatorio Jesús Guridi in Vitoria-Gasteiz. Guionnet (church organ) and García (electronics) again use volume as a compositional variable: the music is engineered so that at low playback levels the performance feels restrained and exquisitely subtle, while at high volume entirely new sonic strata emerge in overwhelming detail. Electroacoustic improvisation that turns the amplifier into part of the score.
Cirkelmusik
*50 copies limited edition* This CD is inscribed with physical defects (scratches with a needle) covering track 8 which consist of a 22049 Hz inaudible sinewave. This will produce audible artefacts, different in nature depending on the CD player used for playback. Tracks 1-6 are recordings of track 8 applying different forms of physical scratches. The results can be described as simple rhytmic studies, some surprisingly jazzy in nature. Timbre-wise only the pure artefacts are heard, contary to e…
2
Second half of a two-part album by Mens and Kouw, recorded live in studio in December 2014 and following directly from the first volume. The two long-form pieces extend the duo's pursuit of precisely tuned analogue synthesis: deep, warm drone fields that gradually disclose, to patient listening, a rich substructure of resonances, artefacts and slowly shifting collages of texture. Material that resists time as event-based articulation and proposes it instead as immersive sonic sculpture.
Together Is The New Alone
Recorded during nightly sessions in Dublin between April and July 2001, and originally issued that autumn on Mille Plateaux, Together Is The New Alone stood out within the German label's celebrated catalogue from its first listen, an album whose title named a feeling we now have an entire vocabulary for, two decades before the rest of us had a word for it.
It was the second LP under Donnacha Costello's own name, and the record where the Irish producer fully emerged from his earlier work as Jayro…
at Studio Pelto
Over the past decade Helsinki has quietly become one of Europe's busiest cities for young jazz players, and few labels have done more to document that activity than Jazzaggression. Uusi Jazzi Klubi - the loose collective that bills itself as the city's underground jazz club - return with their second album, recorded across two days in the spring of 2024 at the label's own Pelto Studio. Nothing here was written in advance. Drummer Aleksi Tanhuala gathered the players, set the tape rolling, and le…
Il Regalo Della Befana (LP)
Rare 2015 one-sided LP on Holidays Records with a single long 1996 piece by of the most original and unclassifiable musicians of French experimental music, released in an edition of 200 hand-numbered and personalised copies not-for-sale.
Love & Noise
Reemerging three decades on, C.C.C.C.’s Love & Noise hits vinyl for the first time, a still‑devastating artefact where Mayuko Hino’s charged electronics and Hiroshi Hasegawa’s Moog storms turn harsh sonics into something crushing, psychedelic and strangely exultant.
Geometric Reason
On Geometric Reason, Sissy Spacek reroute their long‑running extremism into a jagged strain of musique concrète, splicing voice, electronics and acoustic shards into a volatile collage charged by fire‑displacement, Japanese connections and their enduring taste for rupture.
Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts (LP, Coloured)
Huge Tip! *White vinyl with obi strip* Twenty years into their singular journey, Valence-based trio France have become one of Europe's most hypnotic live forces - a hurdy-gurdy-powered engine generating waves of kraut, psych, folk and drone that blur the boundaries between physical experience and altered consciousness.
Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts captures the band in full flight during their very first English tour, recorded at The state51 Factory in East London. Until this tour, UK audiences ha…
Głowy
*100 copies limited edition* "When AJ Lee stepped back into the ring in September 2025 - after a ten-year break - she introduced herself to a new generation of fans with the words: 'If you haven't heard of me, I am your favorite wrestler’s favorite wrestler.' That is exactly what came to my mind as a lead for this blurb when Pokusa asked me to write it. Because that’s what they are: your favorite indie darlings' favorite indie darlings (even though no one uses that term anymore, let alone identi…
