** Hand numbered edition of 250 ** There is a profound resonance between the practices of Nam June Paik and Park Jiha - separated by generations yet united by a shared impulse to dissolve boundaries between Korean tradition and contemporary expression. Paik, the pioneer of video art, wove shamanic ritual and Buddhist philosophy into the fabric of technological media; Park Jiha channels ancient instrumental voices through the sensibility of experimental minimalism. Both artists inhabit a liminal …
Sunset and Forever finds Cindytalk once again stepping into the faultline between collapse and renewal, extending a project that has always treated the band itself as sculptural material to be broken apart and reformed. From the earliest days of Camouflage Heart and In This World, Cinder’s vision fused post‑punk dissonance, industrial dirge, and abject rock deconstruction with a strangely luminous vocal presence – the same voice that threaded through early This Mortal Coil and Cocteau Twins reco…
"What strikes me again, even now, is that rock from the late '60s through the early '70s remains the most compelling — whether Western or Japanese. In the mid-1960s, British groups like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones swept across the globe, while in the United States Bob Dylan famously swapped his folk guitar for an electric one, igniting the folk-rock movement. From the surge of new energy among young people in Britain and America — entwined with hippie culture, drugs, and the radical momen…
Originally issued in 1970 within the third suite of LPs comprising Deutsche Grammophon's Avant-Garde series, the French composer and electroacoustic pioneer Luc Ferrari's Presque Rien No.1 / Société II stands among the most important and groundbreaking albums issued within the canon of 20th Century avant-garde and experimental music. Containing two radically distinct works, Presque Rien No.1 (1967-1970) and Société II (1967), it doubles as a near perfect illumination of the incredible range of c…

Composed by legendary library guitarist and founding member of I Gres, Silvano Chimenti, and accompanied by his orchestra, "Disco Music" is an essential release of the Usignolo catalog and probably one of the most sought after titles of the series. This album displays a broad range of styles masterfully blended together by Chimenti, going from disco-funky bangers "Happy California" and "Autostrade Americane" that lead way to the more dramatic and suspenseful vibes of "Society Problem" and "Trage…
** 2021 Stock ** Centifuga Records presents Melt, the first LP from Nicolai Kaas Claesson's Melt Quartet. 70's Free Jazz style, inspired by Ahmad Jahmal, Keith Jarrett, Sun Ra etc. Nicolai Kaas Claesson‘s quartet generates some serious intensity with the most casual delivery. It’s free jazz that’s laid back and cool, and yet hits like a right cross thrown by a pro. It’s got an old-school feel that brings out the nostalgia for the avant-garde 70s, when that particular phase of jazz’s evolution …
In an age when mental landscapes have become as urgent as physical ones, Sounds From The Screen presents a rediscovered treasure from the golden era of Italian library music: Alessandro Alessandroni's haunting 1975 masterwork "Angoscia." Originally released by Octopus, a label devoted to thematic libraries, "Angoscia" stands as one of Alessandroni's most psychologically penetrating works. Here, the composer native of Lazio demonstrates his unparalleled ability to transform abstract emotional sta…
*2026 repress* Recorded on February 28, 1971, at the Henie Onstad Art Centre in Høvikodden, Norway, this remarkable document captures Soft Machine at the height of their creative powers—performing two continuous sets that blur the boundaries between composition and improvisation.
On this evening, the British avant-garde ensemble unleashed an unbroken flow of sound—dynamic, exploratory, and charged with the band’s signature blend of jazz, rock, and experimental electronics. All instruments—exce…
On High Tide, Eddie Suzuki and his New Hawaii band fold psych shimmer, island melody and 70s pop craft into a quietly visionary song cycle - a warm, Hammond‑lit portrait of “now Hawaii” that feels both homemade and gently cosmic.
Perennials is the latest full-length from Toronto-based anthéne (aka Brad Deschamps), who builds transportive, beautifully detailed sonic worlds using only a guitar, sampler, and modest cache of pedals. Here, his refined treatments, manipulations, and experimentations blend seamlessly with an innate sense of harmonic layering to create an impression of seasonal cycles and their relationship to the human experience at scale. “winter chords” opens with slow serenity and a faint suggestion of hiber…
Released in 1967 on Reprise Records, Part One is the second album by The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band and is widely regarded as their strongest and most cohesive work. Blending psychedelic pop, experimental rock, and surreal songwriting, the album features compositions by Frank Zappa, P.F. Sloan, Baker Knight, and Van Dyke Parks. More song-oriented than their debut yet still wildly unpredictable, Part One captures the strange, fractured beauty of Los Angeles psychedelia at its peak.
Super Tip! In the midst of a wave of hybridizing ambient, drone, folklore and experimental electroacoustic music, Roxane Métayer has gained a cult following with only a couple of releases to date. Following her debut album (Éclipse Des Ocelles) for Morc with a split EP and a limited cassette for Wabi-Sabi, Roxane now turns to Marionette with her intimate narrative based multi-instrumental recordings, a match made in the heavens if you ask us. With her violin, woodwind, voice and various effect p…

The project emerged from Tom Val, Maximilien Douche, and Magali Genuite reading Pélieu's poetry aloud while music played in the room, inspiring them to create something beyond traditional music and poetry readings…

Creatively visionary and groundbreaking on numerous terms, 1973 'Os Tincoãs' revolutionized Brazilian music by harmonizing Afro-religious singing, heavenly vocal harmonies, and frawing on Yoruba mythology, Samba, Capoeira chants and spiritual songs.
In an era where artistic boundaries blur and collapse, Tarek Atoui's practice stands as a radical reimagining of what music can be. His instruments don't simply make sound—they become sculptural entities that breathe, vibrate, and speak in languages that transcend traditional musical vocabulary. Now, coinciding with his major exhibitions across Europe, the Lebanese artist releases MONO LOGS, a groundbreaking three-LP set that documents these extraordinary instruments in conversation with some of…
Modern and grounded in the 1960s hard-bop sensibility, the American pianist and composer Albert Dailey (1939 – 1984) had perfect control over his instrument. Since an early age he played with cutting-edge musicians of the likes of Art Blakey, Sarah Vaughan, Stan Getz, Charles Mingus, and Lee Konitz, only to name a few. But despite that, he was an underrated artist during his lifetime, receiving the deserved recognition only after his death. Renaissance 2 November 1977 is his second album, played…
