On LRG/The Maze/S II Examples, Roscoe Mitchell frames three radically different constructions - a lucid brass-and-reeds trio, a labyrinthine percussion octet and a stark soprano solo - as parallel studies in space, timbre and compositional intelligence.
On Air Time, Air - Henry Threadgill, Fred Hopkins and Steve McCall - hit their 1977 stride, stretching from tightly coiled themes to wide-open improvisation, turning the sax-bass-drums trio into a restless, three-way imagination engine.
On Snurdy McGur dy and Her Dancin’ Shoes, Roscoe Mitchell launches the Sound Ensemble with a volatile mix of abstraction and groove, folding AACM rigor into slyly funky frameworks that keep tilting from tight forms into open risk.
** Audiophile reissue from the original masters, 180gm vinyl pressed by Pallas, laminated hand-glued gatefold cover. Limited Edition. ** Katcharpari is the second solo album by Italian jazz trumpeter Enrico Rava, recorded and released in January 1973 and considered a cornerstone of the jazz-rock/fusion genre. Recorded in Milan and released on the German label BASF, Rava himself described it as his "breakthrough album." Thanks to the critical acclaim this work received, Rava caught the attention …
The latest album from Michael Cashmore (formerly of Current 93, plus known for his work as Nature and Organisation and collaborations with artists such as Marc Almond, Nick Cave, Bill Fay, Rose McDowell and Antony and the Johnsons, amongst others) veers from the paths his previous releases have been on into an area altogether more grandiose or stately. While all of his recordings under his own name have alluded to orchestral or soundtrack work to varying degrees, he has long committed himself to…
2026 Repress. In Muto Infinitas, Catherine Lamb extends her distinctive approach to microtonality and just intonation, crafting a forty-minute dialogue for quartertone bass flute and double bass performed by Rebecca Lane and Jon Heilbron. The recording, realized without electronic alteration, invites deep listening, unspooling at an unhurried pace in a luminous acoustic field. Lamb’s music here is uncompromising in its patience: the two musicians linger in the borderlands of pitch and timbre, ca…

Cucoma Combo are back with their impetuous and political sound, an urgent need to communicate in order to awaken consciences and react to the sick immobility of our times. Captain Marco Zanotti (Classica Orchestra Afrobeat/Lolo) once again gathers his pirate crew and sets sail for new Atlantic and Caribbean adventures. From Cape Verde to Salvador de Bahia, from Haiti to Colombia, then back to Tanzania and Zimbabwe. An inspired and furious attitude incorporates disparate rhythms, languages, and s…

*100 copies limited edition* This new chapter of the Sound Mapping series focuses on Portugal, tracing a cartography of contemporary electroacoustic practices that unfold across a wide and diverse spectrum. The compilation presents a constellation of approaches that oscillate between abstract electronics, music directly influenced by Iberian tradition, ritualistic impulses, and slow-moving electroacoustic drone. What emerges is a porous sonic territory shaped by memory, landscape, and experiment…
Nearly four decades after the fact, the full story of Coil's aborted commission for Clive Barker's Hellraiser can finally be heard - and it is every bit as extraordinary as the legend suggested. The Unreleased Themes for Hellraiser [expanded ritual], released by Mental Groove Records / Musique Pour La Danse, is the definitive edition of one of experimental music's most mythologised what-ifs: a lost soundtrack now restored, expanded, and assembled into a coherent and deeply unsettling whole.
The …
*100 copies limited edition* Two pillars of New York's underground converge. Human Hair brings together Pat Murano and Richard Hoffman - both long-running fixtures of the city's most uncompromising experimental scenes - for an album that slithers, coils, and eventually leaves you floating in open space before you realize the lifeline has slipped from your hands.
The pedigree here is formidable. Hoffman's work with Sightings (one of the best bands to ever emerge from NYC, full stop), Insayngel, a…
“Enta Omri” is Om Kalsoum’s most famous song, composed by Mohamed Abdel Wahab, who is still rightly regarded as a prominent musician and composer in Egypt. The creation of this song was the first long expected collaboration of two musical giants, which came at the repeated urging of Egyptian President Gamal Abdul Nasser. There was talk in Egypt on the streets and in the media about what was believed to be a cold relationship between the two legends. Finally, after years of estrangement, Mohamed …
Happy Today, the third album from guitarist/bandleader Jeff Parker’s long-running ETA IVtet, was recorded live at Lodge Room in Los Angeles on August 20, 2025. This fresh entry into the IVtet’s catalog captures Parker and the band – including drummer Jay Bellerose, bassist Anna Butterss, and saxophonist Josh Johnson – on record outside of the now-shuttered Highland Park micro-club ETA for the first time. The performance also captures a distinctly joyful night of togetherness set against the back…
Make Up, the fourth album from pioneering Japanese rock outfit Flower Travellin’ Band, captures the group at a point of bold experimentation and artistic growth. Released in 1973, the record was conceived as a deliberate hybrid of live performance intensity and studio-crafted exploration, offering listeners an immersive portrait of a band expanding its sonic and creative horizons.
Following the band’s return from Canada, Flower Travellin’ Band set out to build an album that balanced raw concert …
On this meeting with the Spontaneous Music Ensemble, Bobby Bradford steps into John Stevens’ London laboratory and, alongside Trevor Watts, Julie Tippetts, Bob Norden and Ron Herman, turns free improvisation into a fiercely alert, shape‑shifting chamber music.
Ak’chamel, The Givers of Illness plunged into truly deranged extremes to summon the decayed, otherworldly essence captured on Spiritually Unemployed, embracing unhinged and esoteric methods during the tracking process. Recorded in a makeshift adobe studio amid liminal border-zone ruins. Nocturnal treks along forgotten stretches near the U.S.-Mexico line, through derelict border outposts and sun-bleached vehicle husks, yielded unique recording opportunities: Ak’chamel dragged tape decks like sacr…
Iterae is issued as a multi-disc edition designed for both shelf and wall—referencing the scale of the vinyl LP while quietly subverting its familiar expectations. The format distributes the album's material across four 80mm compact discs. Each disc can be played independently or sequenced freely, extending the music's own recursive methodology into its physical presentation. A full-sized compact disc is included on the rear for continuous playback. The design incorporates an integrated rear wal…
On Malarial Dream, Alvarius B. drifts out of Cairo with a fevered, mostly instrumental songbook that bends late‑period Sun City Girls melancholy through Middle Eastern modes, psych‑warped folk and the quiet volatility of a hand‑picked Cairo/avant‑jazz ensemble.
