What We Do When in Silence
Huge Tip! * Limited edition of 300 copies, Embossed cover, comes with insert and postcard * Killer record here!

Nicola Ratti, Alessandra Novaga, and Enrico Malatesta - three names you need to know if you're serious about contemporary improvised music.
The sound? Imagine if AMM had been born in Southern Europe with lapt…
Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat
On Synthesizing: Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, Charanjit Singh folds centuries of Hindustani tradition into a three‑box Roland future, crafting a 1982 raga‑disco séance that would lie dormant for decades before being hailed as proto–acid house and a cornerstone of South Asian electronic modernity.

Jirai Wo Fundara Sayounara
2026 stock, reduced price ** Original Compilation, Numbered **
Jirai Wo Fundara Sayounara - translating, with characteristic Japanoise black humor, as something close to "Goodbye if you step on a landmine" - is one of the essential compilation documents from the Vanilla Records catalog, gathering the label's core artists into a single tape and offering a compressed portrait of the underground it had quietly built since 1985.
To understand the Vanilla Records compilations is to understand how Ja…
Anthem for Peace
On Anthem for Peace, Alan Braufman leads a razor‑sharp quartet through compact, hook‑rich tunes that braid spiritual jazz, buoyant post‑bop and modal, Eastern‑tinged themes into a forward‑moving set that feels both steeped in history and fully present tense.
Thought, Action, Reaction, Interaction
Taking a short sabbatical from their journey into the spiritual stratosphere and beyond, Work Money Death landed on terra firma just long enough to record a follow up to the critically acclaimed “The Space In Which The Uncontrollable Unknown Resides Can Be The Place From Which Creation Arises”. The new album “Thought, Action, Reaction, Interaction” explores many of the meditative motifs that mould this unique group in their quest for the perfect sound and space.

Music For Parents
Music For Parents is a low-frequency, vibroacoustically informed album developed through research into sound, rest, and nervous system regulation. Composed between 2019 and 2020, the record explores slow-moving bass structures and reduced harmonic density, inviting a form of listening that is felt as much as heard. The work emerged from a personal process, shaped by a desire to support rest and release through sound. Music For Parents takes its title reflecting on the dynamics of parent–child re…
12.16
Tori says "12:16 is a piece where I recorded all the sounds of my daily life from waking up in the morning to going to bed at night on December 16, 2025, compressed that recording into an approximately 15-minute track, added my piano and other materials (such as Lee Morgan's riff, the line " Wandering around the mountains is painful" from the Noh chant "Yamanba," and Kazuo Funaki's 1969 song "Yūbae no Futari"), played it at the live venue, and performed along with it. The PC operation at the ve…

Sphēra
Fusing decades of underground New York jazz with contemporary electronics, Daniel Carter and N/UM’s Sphēra takes listeners on a spontaneous and daring journey through generations of improvised music.

Rhythm And Sound
*Limited edition of 500 copies.*Her name was Anna Maria Assunta Andreassi. She composed and arranged the entirety of what would become one of the rarest documents in Italian library music, filed it under the alias Mandrassi, pressed it on the micro-label Ludo Record in 1973, and then watched it disappear almost entirely - so completely that for decades collectors weren't certain the record had ever existed. Sonor Music Editions' reissue of Rhythm And Sound, limited to 500 copies, is the first ti…

Alongside Masonna, Incapacitants, C.C.C.C., and others circulating through the Vanilla Records orbit, Solmania emerged from the same world of home-recording and ultra-limited cassette runs - noise made on homemade instruments and homemade systems, outside any commercial framework and mostly unknown beyo…
Nafs At Peace
On Nafs At Peace, Jaubi turn a Lahore jam into a spiritual suite: North Indian raga, hip‑hop pulse and modal jazz woven into a journey from turmoil to stillness, as if Coltrane’s quest had been reimagined on tabla, sarangi and MPC‑haunted drums.
