Du Formol Orgonal
*300 copies limited edition* The powdered-nosed Escampette, a devil, steps out of the reserve he once assigned himself with the complicity of the warder. In his new recipe book he deciphers for us several ways of inhabiting the night, that refuge running beneath the day, and, by brushing it, draws the map of paths winding between woods and thickets where strange trumpets grow. It is in their coppery foliage that he cools the fire of his cheeks.
In constant molt, the devil knows when and how to t…
Vini Reilly
Tip! The Durutti Column are proud to revisit “Vini Reilly”, a release originally issued in 1989—a heartfelt homage to the legendary sound and creative imagination of Vini Reilly. The record distills atmosphere, elegance, and emotional clarity into music that feels both timeless and deeply personal.
Across “Vini Reilly,” the album captures the essence of Vini’s distinctive musical language: shimmering guitar textures, luminous melodic shapes, and a sense of space that invites the listener to slow…
A Prison Of Measured Time
An official release of previously unreleased material from Coil, strewn with parts that would eventually come together into ‘Backwards’
Heat
With Heat, Société Étrange extends its work around repetition, groove and cyclic structures, shaping an instrumental music that is both hypnotic and enveloping. Without any radical shift, the Lyon-based trio subtly moves towards more melodic and more cinematic forms, revealing warmer, more textured and sometimes more luminous atmospheres.
Formed by Antoine Bellini (electronics), Romain Hervault (bass) and Jonathan Grandcollot (drums), Société Étrange builds here a more diffuse trance, driven by …
And the birds sang...
On And the birds sang…, Larry Stabbins revisits two of his deepest musical friendships, paring everything down to duets with Keith Tippett and Louis Moholo‑Moholo, where tenderness, ferocity and crooked song coexist in fiercely alive, small‑room intensity.
Down By Law
*2026 repress* The soundtrack to Jim Jarmusch's 1986 film Down By Law is composed and performed by John Lurie, who also plays the pimp Jack in the movie. His world-weary avant-jazz pieces like "Please Come to My House," "What Do You Know About Music, You're Not a Lawyer," "Strangers in the Day," and "Fork in the Road" convey the film's seedy but humorous crime story.
Fading Pictures
*2026 stockn* Last time, RLW (Ralf Wehowsky—active years ago on P16.D4 and since then releasing a largely uncategorizable brand of noise music across numerous publications) thrilled us on these pages with his album Satanic Inventions. Now, again on Stephen Meixner’s label Black Rose Recordings, the similarly conceptually dense album Fading Pictures is released.
In the liner notes, Wehowsky describes the close connection between electroacoustics and Cinéma L’Oreille. He understands electroacousti…
SOS "In A Sentimental Mood"
Born in 1945 near Hiroshima, eighty years old in a year that marks eighty years since the war, Akira Sakata hands this one over almost humbly, which is not a word you often reach for with him. In a Sentimental Mood is the first record by his new trio Akira Sakata SOS, the alto and clarinet veteran flanked by pianist Nana Omori and his own son on drums, Manabu Sakata. They open with the Duke Ellington ballad you think you know, all velvet and nostalgia, and then Omori climbs onto the tips of her …
Ecliptic
*100 copies limited edition* Across two decades of restless exploration, Haptic—the trio of Steven Hess, Joseph Clayton Mills, and Adam Sonderberg—has earned a reputation for meticulously assembled recordings and compelling live performances that veer from rigorous minimalism to densely textured, immersive sonic environments. Consistently blurring the lines between different genres and disciplines, their experimental practice has expanded to include installations, soundtracks, and unique site-sp…
Dawn
Dawn presents Mike Osborne in both his earliest surviving recording, as a co-leader with John Surman of a quartet from 1966, and in 1970 with the first known recordings of his mighty trio with the transplanted South African rhythm team of Harry Miller and Louis Moholo. These unearthed recordings not only fill in important gaps in Osborne's own discography but in the history of British jazz as a whole. The first six tracks, recorded in 1970, are by his trio, his main vehicle as a leader and…

Songs From The B. F. White Sacred Harp
"The Wiregrass Singers' Dewey Williams began learning the shape-note tradition in his childhood. He studied under Judge Jackson, who authored the landmark 1934 hymnbook The Colored Sacred Harp. In 1971, Williams formally organized The Wiregrass Sacred Harp Singers to preserve the music full-time. This unified troupe began touring nationally and leading workshops, which ultimately launched them onto stages at the Smithsonian and Newport folk festivals up until Williams' passing in 1995 when the g…

Bonnet) returns to Shelter Press after Swamps / Things, Shifted in Dreams, and the recent reissue of the classic Zauberberg, co-composed with Akira Rabelais and Stephan Mathieu.

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). However, Brainticket were not mere products of their time, they explored some truly compelling musical territory and produced a superlative blanket of sound-featuring a pioneering mix of early synthesizers, flute, zither, sitar, and male …
The Black Record

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…
