Tip! Tip! Tip! Just after the summer post-rock madness of “The Window” in their band HWYUIOD, Shelter & Orion are back with dub versions of Orion Music Workshop’s previous records. Deconstructed or reconstructed in an industrial, post-punk aesthetic, recalling whole On-U Sound golden age (Adrian Sherwood, Mark Stewart, African Head Charge…) as well as Craig Leon, Sheriff Lindo… and more.
For this CD, we used the stereo master tapes from the original sessions, and as a bonus track, we've included a lengthy mono suite assembled by Maestro Morricone himself for a promotional double vinyl release. The maestro composed a fascinating experimental score that draws on his studies and performances with the Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, founded by Goffredo Petrassi. Morricone perfectly captured the deceptively quiet atmosphere of a post-nuclear world, where survivors live in…
*50 copies limited edition* Insects chirp and rustle, birds are calling and chimes are being played, gently and patiently. A soft layer of lo-fi noise covers everything up like a thin and comfortable blanket. These are the nocturnal sounds that occupy the opening segment of ‘La Maison Forestière’ (The Forester's House). It seems the early dawning of the day, a moment of slowly waking up. The perfect moment for us, the listeners, to join this strangely familiar world of sound. Other percussive in…

She works with found sounds, objects and electronics, creating auditory assemblages that reveal a profound sensitivity to sound’s tactile potential. This new record sees her palette expand to include more recognisable acoustic instrumentation, albeit working in collaboration with musicians who are already reconfiguring how those instruments can sound.

"Several hundred years ago the Mage of Enlandin built a dungeon complex beneath his castle to protect all of his treasures and to serve as a last defense. The army of a neighboring country attacked, pounding the walls with catapults and blasting his defenses with spells.
The Mage and his faithful companions fled into the dungeon as the castle collapsed. Believing the Mage of Enlandin to be buried with his treasures, the attacking Lord ordered his men to dig through the rubble. Before they could …
HDK launches its "Educational Series" with this cassette of experimental Swedish music on a prehistoric theme. Suitable for all children in primary and secondary schools, it will accompany them in their learning of history. The cassette is also ideal for adults with rather limited historical knowledge.

We are pleased to announce the upcoming reissue of “Min Bul”, a milestone of Norwegian rock and jazz, included in the renowned Nurse With Wound list, from the band whose leader was a young Terje Rypdal. Recorded in the Rosenborg studio in September 1970, with Egil Eide as engineer, “Min Bul” is a highly experimental work for its time that grew out of the Samklang projects at the Henie-Onstad Art Center, where director Ole Henrik Moe encouraged adventurous composers and improvising musicians to j…
CD Edition - Fifteen years in, Joshua Abrams and his Natural Information Society have stopped trying to impress anyone and started building something genuinely necessary. Perseverance Flow strips away the expanded lineups of recent efforts, returning to the core quartet—Lisa Alvarado on harmonium, Mikel Patrick Avery on drums, Jason Stein on bass clarinet, and Abrams on guimbri—for one continuous 37-minute meditation that feels less like composed music than a natural phenomenon you've stumbled u…

Different musical personalities but with many common musical points, offered extremely polarized piece of art, some kind of kaleidoscope of musical suprises and always on the edge of disintegration. A record that mixes a wide range of styles, opening with slow ambiesque vignettes, elegiac passages, continuing …
Tip! Edition of 66 numbered copies. Straight outta Jutland comes the new album by Denmark’s Lenny Kalimba. Set your ears adrift in warm scenic sounds, and watch them dance blissfully spasmodic.

Electronic beats and acoustic drums swing each other to a higher level of groove.
Recorded on tape for a warm listening pleasure, and hereby presented as a ta…
2 CDs in a 6-panel Digipak. The original release of Nurse with Wound's gargantuan "Thunder Perfect Mind" in 1992 coincided with that of Current 93's homonymous genre-defining album. Legend has it that the gnostic name initially appeared to Steven Stapleton in a dream as the title of Tibet's then still nameless upcoming album. Both records feature contributions from David Tibet, Colin Potter, Rose McDowall, John Balance of Coil, Alan Trench of Orchis and Joolie Wood amongst others. The title and …

It was not until 2003 that the soundtrack was released on CD in Japan (Volcano CPC8-1216). Now, Riz Ortolani's soundtrack appears for the first time on Italian CD. Maestro Ortolani composed an orchestral OST dominated by wild funky passages (Tr.1,3,10,22) alternating with lounge-style pieces (Tr.2,5,8) and suspenseful and mysterious orchestral passages that creat…
