zakè (20th Anniversary Edition)
Although this is zakè’s debut release on PITP (2019), these arrangements were originally created in 2006. Sharing a fitting description of the label name with the release, it truly is the ‘Past Inside the Present’. These time-worn selections unfold like a slow-moving cascade, quiet, delicate, and gracefully drifting. The understated arrangements weave together warm, ambient drones that shift from faint lo-fi textures, while sinewy mid-tonal synths sway between idle afternoon reflections and hazy…
Tree Grid
*30 copies limited edition. Signed, hand-assembled CD + unique Polaroid photo by zakè, housed in a hand-stamped and numbered 2-panel kraft cardstock sleeve* Toward the end of 2024, I sent Brian Grainger (Coppice Halifax) a collection of sounds, loops, and textures, giving him complete creative freedom to reshape them into something entirely new. Much like his remarkable reinterpretation of LL ('LL1 (Beige Mix)' ZD-026, 2023), every piece on this album was constructed exclusively from the source …
Eternity
2026 stock. * This quality LP reissue was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. * Released in 1976, Eternity was Alice Coltrane's first album for Warner Bros. after eight wondrous records on Impulse! Combining the drones and textures of India, the gospel and R&B of her Detroit youth and the dissonance of modern classical composition, Coltrane's music in the '70s would become increasingly difficult to categorize. Having moved a few year…
Percussions
On Percussions, Saint Tropez Orchestra turn the drum kit into a bandleader, spreading 20 compact cuts across a spectrum of funk, library jazz and tropical pulse. Every arrangement is built from the skin outward, making rhythm the song’s spine, flesh and nervous system all at once.
Every Color Moving (1988-2003)
On Every Color Moving (1988–2003), Steve Roden’s first 15 years unfold across six discs: from noisy, searching experiments to the hushed, “lowercase” worlds that would define his quietly radical, object‑based approach to sound and space.
D.N.A. (LP)
*Warehouse find!* "D.N.A." is a contemporary jazz album recorded at Mondial Studios in Milan in December 1996 by two 'heavyweights' of Italian and international jazz music, trumpeter Enrico Rava and pianist Mario Rusca, the latter here feature with his trio accompanied by double bass player Lucio Terzano and drummer Tony Arco. The album alternates original compositions written by Mario Rusca with evergreen classics of the genre.
In 1997 SAAR Records with its Giants Of Jazz label for the contemp…
Selected Works
*220 copies limited edition* Lucien's music is inspired by Caribbean rhythms (biguines, mazurka, zouk), Caribbean rhythms (calypso), and Latin American rhythms (bossa nova, salsa), and is strongly influenced by modal jazz, jazz-fusion, and American funk. Laura Laura, Mim, Herbie — titles that showcase the musicians' creativity and the harmonic elegance of the compositions, making jazz both accessible and sophisticated.
Lucien Joly’s talent is evident not only in his compositions but also in his…
Chaos Is a Law
On Chaos Is A Law, Bob Bellerue treats feedback and rupture as a kind of secular mysticism. Macrotonal drones, rasping noise and inharmonic vortices surge, implode and re-form, turning piano wires, metal and amplifiers into a single, volatile organism where chaos becomes both method and mantra.
War Poem
On War Poem, Chris Connelly turns antique tape machines into artillery: a single, accidental loop blooms into side‑long, grief‑stricken immersion, where scorched industrial sonics and stark anti‑war outrage fuse into something brutally intense and unnervingly beautiful.
Decoy (LP)
Original Japanese edition on CBS/Sony of the 1984 album featuring Branford Marsalis and John Scofield. With insert and obi.
Holy Ghost: The Life & Death of Free Jazz Pioneer Albert Ayler (Book)
312 pages, paperback, with 8-page photo insert. 150 x 215mm. The first extended biography of Albert Ayler ever published in English, and it took twenty years to build. Part life story, part case file, and long overdue. Richard Koloda is a musicologist and a practising lawyer, and both trades show on every page. He was a long-time friend of Donald Ayler, Albert's trumpet-playing younger brother; a consultant on Revenant Records' ten-CD retrospective Holy Ghost: Rare And Unissued Recordings (1962…
Bivabippabualukka
On Bivabippabualukka, Sofie Birch turns a spiritually transformative period with her brother Alfred into a bossa‑tinted pocket of joy: playful, childlike songs where intuition, myth and healing spill out like fish from a cup of dreams.
Roland Hanna Trio (LP)
Original edition on CBS/Sony's "Master Sound DD Direct Disk" series of the 1979 album featuring Ron Carter, Tony Williams, Wayne Shorter and Freddie Hubbard. With insert.
The Blues And The Abstract Truth (LP)
1974 re-issue on Impulse! with different cover of the 1961 album featuring Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, Roy Haynes, Freddie Hubbard and Paul Chambers.
Live at Low Four Studio, Manchester
Nat Birchall, saxophonist and composer, one of the most authentic voices in contemporary spiritual jazz, presents Path of Enlightenment, a sonic journey through rarely explored scales and modes, from Ethiopia to Byzantium, from ancient Egypt to South Africa.
For this new recording, Birchall deliberately chose the quartet format - tenor sax, piano, double bass and drums - seeking a cohesion and intimacy that allows the music to breathe and tell its story. Joining him are his trusted collaborators…
Return To Forever
Chick Corea's luminous 1972 classic that launched a movement, with Stanley Clarke, Airto Moreira, Flora Purim and Joe Farrell. Sunlit Brazilian melody and weightless groove; a founding ECM statement.
Alina
It's unlikely that many will have missed the fact that ECM - an unparalleled home for groundbreaking music, whose catalog has predominantly been restricted to the CD format since the 1980s - has begun releasing stunning, beautifully produced audiophile vinyl pressings of a select number of their most in-demand releases. Among the most requested to receive this treatment, Arvo Pärt's 1999 full-length, Alina, has long topped their list. Finally, such a dream has come to be with its multiple render…
Silence and Secrecy
Zos Kia’s music is an essential insight and archival piece into the early work of the industrial scene and particularly of Coil in their formative stages. Their recordings are even darker and more industrial-rooted than much of the Coil material that followed. The music is primal, brutal and reveals the interests that surrounded Coil/Zos Kia and the early years of Thee Temple ov Psychic Youth (TOPY) / Psychic TV...
John Gosling was an original member of Zos Kia (as Joan D'Arc), alongside John …
What Was
The first release of a 1995 studio session, produced by Evan Parker. The Kenny Wheeler Sextet includes Ray Warleigh, Stan Sulzmann, John Parricelli, Chris Laurence and Tony Levin.
