Never Say When
Broken Flag was never only a noise label. Never Say When, the compilation Gary Mundy assembled in 1987 as the imprint neared its end, is the evidence: ten tracks mapping a network that ran from Croydon to Udine, almost none of them behaving the way the label's reputation would predict.
Mundy founded Broken Flag in 1982, out of a bedroom in South London, alongside his own project Ramleh. Across the decade it issued early work by The New Blockaders, Consumer Electronics, Skullflower, Maurizio Bian…
Almost Starlight
Almost Starlight is the extraordinary new album by Jem Finer (hurdy-gurdy) and John Matthias (violin). Produced by Jay Auborn and recorded in a Medieval Church, deep in the Devon countryside, in the Summer of 2025, the music is suffused with light, heat and the natural acoustics of the space.
The album defies categorisation; forced to pigeon hole it the nearest approximation would be ‘modern-classical’ but this ignores its myriad influences and explorations which encompass inspiration from Arvo …
La Proyección
“La Proyección”, the debut LP by Jose María Lluch, architect and musician from San Sebastian, appears as a transition, a gradual shift that happened over time. Intimate and innocent, disconnected and erratic at times, the 11 compositions presented here are extracted from recordings spanning 9 years, between 2015-2024. Humbly assorted in his home studio, the music here is for letting your mind drift. The processes of composition, recording, and editing intertwine. Field recordings from daily chor…
Electric Sandwich
Electric Sandwich were founded in Bonn in 1967 and played sophisticated progressive rock. Their first gigs were in 1968. At a band competition on 16 October 1971, they shared second place with the Scorpions and impressed so much that they immediately received a contract from Metronome/Brain. The LP, recorded by Dieter Dierks, was released at the end of 1972 (Brain 1018) with an olive-green label. After several illegal reissues (on Germanofon, Hiatus, Ear Ass, Icon, etc.), this legitimate edition…
Prati Bagnati del Monte Analogo
One of the most sought-after jewels from Italy's legendary Cramps Records finally gets the reissue treatment it deserves! Raul Lovisoni and Francesco Messina's stunning 1979 masterpiece Prati Bagnati Del Monte Analogo – produced by the one and only electronic pioneer Franco Battiato – returns in a faithful reproduction that honors the original sleeve design.
This is Italian Minimalism at its most delicate and transcendent. Not the rigid academic exercises you might expect, but something far more…
On The Road
Limited edition CD & download album from Danny Thompson’s group fusing jazz with folk music. The triple CD comes in an 8-panel digisleeve with 28 page booklet detailing the complete history of the band and illustrated with photos and images mainly from Paul Dunmall’s archives.
When asked “is it jazz or folk?” about his band Whatever, Danny Thompson replied “well, it’s Whatever!” Hence the name. When Danny started Whatever, a trio with reed player Tony Roberts and guitarist Bernie Holland, and in…
Colori
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and EMI General Music, presents a reissue of Ennio Morricone’s iconic album Colori, celebrating its 55th anniversary. In the summer of 1971, Morricone entered the legendary Orthophonic Studios in Rome alongside his longtime collaborators Bruno Nicolai, Alessandro Alessandroni and Edda Dell’Orso, and recorded a selection of ten tracks drawn from some of his recent film scores, many of which had not yet been released. He remixed some cues and re-recorded …
Beautiful United Harmony Happening, The Education of an Amphibian
* 150 copies Small repress* “Beautiful United Harmony Happening” / “The Education of an Amphibian” - the second release by Alga Marghen’s brand new free jazz imprint, Formalibera - is also dedicated to the output of John Tchicai following his return to Copenhagen during the mid 1960s. Comprising two pieces, remarkably, this single LP effectively bookends a rich period of activity for the saxophonist, capturing one of his earliest group formations as a leader from 1966, as well as one of his last…
Athanor
*150 copies limited edition* Within him lies a chamber made of attention rather than walls. There, a quiet warmth works without flame, loosening certainties, refining what has settled into form. Nothing is forced; everything is listened into being. A tone, a shadow, a fragment of light; each pass through him as trace rather than possession. The world is not captured but accompanied, allowed to breathe, to fade, to re-emerge altered. In this inward vessel, transformation is a discipline of patien…
Opéra De Nuit
Opéra de Nuit emerge from their long slumber to grace Dark Entries with the frostiest of reissues. Formed in 1982 in Valréas in the southeast of France, Opéra de Nuit only released 3 records throughout their career: EPs in 1984 and 1986, with a full LP following in 1988. But devotees of dark music will need no introduction to this band, who are almost definitional of the coldwave genre, and whose rabid cult following has each record readily trading for three-digit prices. Opéra de Nuit’s sound i…
Four Organs/Phase Patterns
** 2024 Repress ** Steve Reich remains one of the most important figures in 20th century music. Though he studied at the prestigious arts institutions Julliard and Mills College, by the mid-1960s Reich set about dismantling the very orthodoxy that he had been trained in. Forming a new musical language based on repetitive processes, Reich became established as part of the so-called "Big Four" of New York minimalists (along with La Monte Young, Terry Riley and Philip Glass). Reich's influence can …
Four Scenes
*2026 stock* A later Sunao Wada session for Three Blind Mice, and one of the more outward-looking records in his TBM run. The quintet-plus-one format brings the saxophonist and flautist Minoru Ikeno alongside Wada's working group, and the addition shifts the music's centre of gravity, opening up the writing to longer tones and more spacious harmonies. There's still plenty of the bluesy swing that runs through Wada's discography, but the textures here are wider: Fender Rhodes lacing through the h…
Cacciamali
Cacciamali is an exploration of diegetic sound, folk chants and traditional rhythms and instrumentation building upon Milan based Rosso Polare’s last outing Campo Amaro and the subsequent departure of co-founder Anna Vezzosi from the group. Where the 2024 album incorporated a heavy use of folklore as a new tool, Cacciamali explores the influence further by bringing in a host of collaborative players including Italian avant-garde veteran Riccardo Sinigaglia, sound artist and researcher HMOT (Stas…
El Ultimo Cortejo
The mighty Argentine progsters Bubu make a triumphant comeback with their 3rd and final album El Ultimo Cortejo. Composed in part based on notes discovered by the band’s mastermind Daniel Andreoli in his parents’ basement, dating back to the Anabelas (1976) period, and in part on newly infused sonic elements by the evergreen lineup that boasts some of the finest upcoming musicians from Buenos Aires’ rampant neoprog scene, El Ultimo Cortejo carves new pathways in Bubu’s evolutionary trajectory by…
Self Portrait As A Meditation On Something Else
*2026 stock* "As a fifth-generation Nebraskan, growing up on the native lands of the Chatiks si chatiks people (Pawnee), this project is a part of my process of learning, listening, and developing a relationship with the land and its stewards in my home state: a beautiful place with a rich history that is as much a part of me and my family as it is part of the settler-colonial project of displacement and genocide
Self-portrait as a meditation on something else is the third entry in my ongoing se…
Airto & Flora - A Celebration: 60 Years - Sounds, Dreams & Other Stories
Airto Moreira and Flora Purim, the legendary King and Queen of Brazilian Jazz, have captivated audiences for over six decades with their vibrant albums and exhilarating live performances. With a dedicated global fan base including the UK's jazz funk and jazz dance scene to Japan's concert halls, the power couple continues to make waves in the industry – Flora's 'If You Will' (2022) album was even nominated for a Grammy! The duo met and came together musically in Sambalanço and the Sambrasa Trio.…
Blak Saagan bundle
Two records, ten sides, one argument. Blak Saagan's Se Ci Fosse La Luce Sarebbe Bellissimo and Un Sequestro Lungo 10.000 Anni read as the same book at two magnifications, and this bundle pairs them for the first time: the long overdue repress of the 2021 double LP alongside the triple album that answers it.
The first takes a single captivity and maps it in detail. Every title attaches to the 1978 kidnapping of the former Italian prime minister Aldo Moro by the Red Brigades: the fifty-four days, …
Ghost
Ghost is the ninth studio album by New York-based Black Swan, who employs an arsenal of analog recording devices and methods to blur the line between reality and memory. Inspired by musique concrète, ambient, and dark drone traditions, the twenty pieces in this continuous suite capture the experiences of a spirit navigating the physical world it left behind.
The dimensions of each movement come from careful consideration of the overall narrative: some are brief vignettes, while others are given …
Chinoiseries
Now a 'cult classic' , repressed for 2023 ears on All City Dublin. Onra started the project in August 2006, freshly returned from a trip to Vietnam, the land of his grandparents. A vinyl junkie at heart, he really couldn’t come back to France without bringing back some wax. After hours spent riding on a motorbike through the streets of Saigon, a taxi finally helped him find some Asian records - he almost felt like an explorer discovering a forgotten treasure. He bought 30 records, most of them …
Vento Sul
A holy grail! This is one of Marcos Valle's best-ever albums – and it's certainly the one to best realize the larger scope he was heading for in the years after the bossa – that sublime mix of jazz and more expansive arrangements – a perfect fit for the growing sophistication of Valle's songwriting. The record is fantastic – done with a sweeping sound that still leaves us breathless after all these years – and put together with an approach to composition that is virtually indescribable. There's …
