Black Leather Jesus, the Houston harsh noise project Richard Ramirez started in 1989, on a white 8" lathe cut: two sides of almost seven minutes, Washed and Waiting, recorded in Pennsylvania in March 2026. Thirty numbered copies.
A transmission from the borderlands of sound, Cold Calling on the Spirit Line brings together the singular musical world of Perzeptiverdampfkesselqualmtbesinnlich and the unmistakable voice and imagination of Edward Ka-Spel. Strange, intimate and quietly unsettling, the album unfolds like a late-night conversation with the unknown. Its songs move through fractured landscapes of dream logic, spectral electronics and shadowy atmospheres, where familiar signals become distorted and every message se…
Following their debut “Jazz Report From The Hood", which proved a major success and brought attention to Omasta as one of the most distinctive groups emerging from the contemporary jazz scene, the musicians return with their second album, “Hits Different”. The record develops the language established on their debut, pushing it into new territory and shifting the perspective from that of the protagonists themselves to that of a narrator telling the story. In just one year, Omasta went from an eme…
Flutist Nicole Mitchell and percussionist Joe Westerlund, a former mentee of Milford Graves, improvise in a rural studio near Chapel Hill: looped flutes, mbiras, metallophones and live electronics, with no overdubs.
VERY last copies!!! - The first 500 mail-order copies version that includes the playable full-color picture-postcard reproducing David Tibet's painting of the track Like Swallowing SunBeams, inserted in risograph-printed CandyBag. The box set essentially represents a dark ambient/industrial re-imagination of Current 93's early apocalyptic works, where Andrew Liles has extracted and amplified the most disturbing and ritualistic elements, creating soundscapes that function as sonic invocations rat…
234 pages, paperback, 14 x 17cm. Over 200 flyers, compiled by Masala Noir, Paris. Nobody was supposed to keep these. A flyer is made to be handed out on a Tuesday, read once, and dropped in the street on the way to the show. It has a job, the job lasts about four days, and then it is rubbish. That is the whole reason this book exists and the whole reason it is worth having: what you are looking at is the accidental survival of a form designed to be thrown away.
And what a form. No budget, no cli…
»Kashmiri Queens« – previously released as a limited CD – presents a more accessible side of Muslimgauze, featuring a faster tempo and fewer sonic overtones than his previous endeavors. The music's core is rooted in drone and raga samples complemented by a rich array of ethnic percussions. This 12inch stands out for its authenticity, allowing the sounds of tablas, sitars, and various ethnic wind instruments to flourish openly without being interrupted. There's a notable departure from the usual …
2025 stock Warp's first ever 'guitar-playing' signing make a welcome return with this, their self-titled, second album for the label. Applying less of their signature 'shoegaze' aesthetic, the addition of Boredoms drummer E-da and electronic musician Shigeru Ishihara in the line-up, has given this album much more of a palpable feel than earlier releases on Warp and Too Pure. An invigorating return.
Ten tracks from Lebanon's private press cassette scene of the late 1970s and 1980s, many tied to Ziad Rahbani's Bypass Studio circle: disco, soul, jazz, bossa and AOR, some tapes issued in tiny runs and some never released at all.
People Skills - the long running project of Philadelphia's Jesse Dewlow - has spent close to two decades tuned to that lower, stranger frequency, and Several Years Later may be the fullest transmission he has yet let out of the room. Since the mid 2000s, Dewlow has worked at the seam where a song comes apart into weather. Repetitive guitar figures, idle tape phenomena, sound residue, voices sunk far beneath the surface - materials gathered under the sign of his Heresy Museum and set loose in sha…

Montenegrin born in Istanbul, precocious pianist growing up in an embassy, brilliant musician. Prolific composer speaking eight languages, he arranged music for jazz, pop music, adopting multiple identities. For one label, he is Andy Loore; for another, Emiliano Orti.

Somewhere in the Wind is the third record that Loren Connors and I have made together. Of the three, it’s the first that consists exclusively of electric guitar duos and it’s the first that was recorded live. To me it feels very much like a live record; this music happened in crowded rooms in Brooklyn on two dates in 2025 and there’s an urgency to connect with others and a pleasure in doing so that can be heard on both of these tracks. On the first of our duo records (Arborvitae, 2003) I primari…
Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collector’s sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl. One of the most quietly radical entries in Deutsche Grammophon's legendary Avantgarde series - the run of albums issued between 1968 and 1971 that did more than almost any other label project to document the experimental music of its moment - returns to vinyl. Recorded in London in 1971, the Scratch Orchestra's r…
The Intercommunal Free Dance Music Orchestra was created in 1971 by an “old hand” of French free jazz, François Tusques. Free Jazz, was also the name of the recording made by the pianist and other like-minded Frenchmen (Michel Portal, François Jeanneau, Bernard Vitet, Beb Guérin and Charles Saudrais) in 1965. But, six years later Tusques had had his fill of free jazz. After having wondered, together with Barney Wilen (Le Nouveau Jazz) or even solo (Piano Dazibao and Dazibao N°2), if free jazz wa…

*300 copies limited edition* Originally released in 2000 on Smalltown Supersound, Kim Hiorthøy’s first record Hei captures an artist who had made very little music before – yet it seemingly was the starting point of a musical career that would stay away from easy categorisation.

Made in Copenhagen with little equipment — an Ak…

Huge Tip! Industrial music legend Chris Connelly returns to his first love with White Phosphorus (Chris Connelly plays Throbbing Gristle), a suitably uncompromising homage to the "random, tense, scary & compulsively fascinating" phase of industrial music's catalysers and ur-agitators. Having carved a twisted career with behemoths Ministry and Revolting Cocks over the past 40 years, starting life with the formidable Fini Tribe and collaborating with disparate characters such as Killing Joke, Caba…
