Breach
Zeno van den Broek's most aggressive work for the label, framed around chaotic systems and the energetics of protest and riot. Sine waves, noise and grid logics from his architectural-conceptual practice are pushed into pitch-black metal-electronic territory, with polyrhythmic structures driving the buildup and release of accumulated tension. A formal study of chaos that retains his rigorous minimalist vocabulary while shifting it into visceral, high-energy mass.

Des Femmes Disparaissent
Art Blakey was the new hero on the Paris jazz scene, thanks to his Olympia concert on November 22nd 1958, and his subsequent appearances at the Club St. Germain. People swore by his 'Blues March' and 'Moanin', so why not get him to do the soundtrack for the film Molinaro just finished? The only problem, albeit a major one, was that time was short, so an original score was out of the question: the Jazz Messengers would have to preach the good word by other means. Fortunately, the band's tenor and…
Alyssa
*300 copies limited edition. Black sleeves with paste-on artwork and a postcard* Debut LP from a new Gothenburg duo consisting of Irma Krook (Makthaverskan) and Dan Johansson (Sewer Election). Alyssa takes elements from Irmas Military Arms 12" released a few years ago and combines it with the mind expanding synth stuff Dan has explored with the Psychic Panorama recordings recently. Adding a few larger-than-life piano bangers and whatnot, the result is a dreamy and mesmerizing night time album …
Bulayo (Guitar Songs From Tanzania, Kenya, Zambia, And DR Congo)
African acoustic guitar masterpieces, expanding on Mississippi’s beloved “African Guitar Box.” In 1979 and 1980, a young British-Kenyan musician named John Low hit the road to learn finger-style guitar from his heroes. He traveled across Kenya, Tanzania, Congo, and Zambia, visiting, and sometimes staying in the homes of, stars like Jean-Bosco Mwenda, Losta Abelo, and Emmanuel Mulemena. He also documented brilliant but previously under-recorded artists like Tanzania’s Francis Kitime and Kenya’s M…

The show in Kyoto was organised by Tatsuya Shimada (night cruising). After a solo concert by Masayoshi Fujita and Jan Jelinek, the two performed as a duo.
Trap
First international vinyl reissue of Chiko Hige's Trap, his second solo album, originally on Japan Records in 1985. A tense, hypnotic record of hyper-kinetic grooves, clipping guitars and twisting saxophone lines: one of the cleanest distillations of the Japanese No-Wave idiom at its peak, and a record that still sounds startlingly contemporary four decades on.
Siticidelhous
Companion volume to Parkustomnie, drawn from the same 2016 sessions at the Conservatorio Jesús Guridi in Vitoria-Gasteiz. Guionnet (church organ) and García (electronics) again use volume as a compositional variable: the music is engineered so that at low playback levels the performance feels restrained and exquisitely subtle, while at high volume entirely new sonic strata emerge in overwhelming detail. Electroacoustic improvisation that turns the amplifier into part of the score.
Live at Widney High December 26th, 1971
On a Sunday in the early 70s in South LA, you could easily find yourself standing in a high school auditorium, watching Horace Tapscott conduct the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra as they poured out music like a benediction. No tickets, no VIP list—just the community, gathered. This was music as civic duty, as spiritual practice, as revolution by other means. Live at Widney High December 26th, 1971 captures one such afternoon, previously unreleased and now arriving like a dispatch from a parallel u…
Focus Intensity Power
BJ Nilsen's first LP for the label, departing from his field-recording practice. Recorded during a Fall 2017 residency at Willem Twee Electronic Music Studio in Den Bosch, the five pieces document improvised sessions on modular synthesizers, tone generators and laboratory test instruments. The flâneur's ear, normally trained on wind or city traffic, is here turned on machine-generated material: analogue pulse, droning waves and subtle noise arranged with the same patient sense of texture.
Music for Intersecting Planes
On Music for Intersecting Planes, Kali Malone and Leila Bordreuil braid organ, cello, sine waves and feedback into a candlelit nocturne of air and overtones, an austere yet tender ritual where space itself becomes a third instrument.
In a Few Places Along the River
Soft Echoes presents the first physical edition of ‘In a Few Places Along the River’ by Abul Mogard as a limited run of 500 vinyl copies. Originally released digitally in 2022, the album now appears in its intended form, marking the label’s second release.
Three long pieces, composed between 2019 and 2022, emerged from Mogard’s meticulous experimentation with analogue and digital instruments. Slowly evolving harmonic fields of layered drones and spectral textures drift across the record. They ar…
Onder/Stroom
Title and concept play against Extrapool's short-lived Zonder Stroom programme (performances entirely without electricity). One bleak winter afternoon the trio decided to do the inverse, using every keyboard, synthesizer and piece of electronics they could lay hands on. The album collects mixes and remixes of that single session: a joyful, dense electroacoustic improvisation with Richard Youngs's experimental folk instincts threading through de Waard's and Nÿland's electronic vocabulary.
Warrior On the Edge of Time
Iconic space rock pioneers Hawkwind are thrilled to announce a landmark 50th anniversary reissue of their groundbreaking fifth studio album, Warrior on the Edge of Time, originally released on May 9, 1975.

Inspired by Michael Moorcock's …
Bangor Flying Circus
Bangor Flying Circus, the self-titled debut from the short-lived but influential Chicago progressive rock trio, is a striking document of late-1960s American psychedelia and ambitious musicianship. Formed in mid-1967 and active through 1969, Bangor Flying Circus brought together seasoned players from the Shadows of Knight and H.P. Lovecraft to create a sound that bridged blues-rooted rock, baroque psychedelia, and forward-looking progressive arrangements.
Recorded and released during a moment of…
Atomique Tape
Edition of 101 copies. Recorded in June 1980 and self-issued the same year on cassette, Atomique Tape belongs to the legendary first wave of releases under the MB name, the moniker Maurizio Bianchi adopted that spring after closing his earlier project Sacher-Pelz. Across roughly twelve months, working from his home in the Mantuan town of Pomponesco, Bianchi produced an extraordinary run of self-released tapes that would, almost immediately, place him at the centre of the international industrial…
Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls
Coven’s groundbreaking debut album Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls (often shortened to Witchcraft) is reissued in a newly remastered edition, bringing renewed clarity and presence to one of the most infamous and influential records in occult rock history.
Originally released in 1969, Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls confronted the era with overt occult and satanic imagery and lyrical themes that were unprecedented in popular music at the time. The album’s controversial content—arr…
Analysis Reveals Nothing Of Substance
When Bass Communion was invited to appear at a Fourth Dimension/LTCo label event at Cafe OTO in May 2024, Steven Wilson (the man behind BC) agreed on the condition that his long-time friend and fellow traveller of music’s furthest reaches Frans de Waard could join him. Being acquainted with Frans’ work and having even released a couple of things by him ourselves over the years (on Fourth Dimension), we were more than happy with this idea.
However, when the pair met in London at Steven's studio t…
Industrial tape
This is where it begins. Recorded in May 1980 and self-released the same year as catalogue number 01, Industrial Tape is the founding document of the MB project, the first cassette Maurizio Bianchi issued under his new name after closing the Sacher-Pelz chapter. Working alone in his home in the Mantuan town of Pomponesco, twenty-four years old, equipped with little more than an analogue synthesiser, a tape machine, and a small bank of effects, Bianchi laid down four pieces that would set in moti…
