Himawari
Meditative synthesizer work from former Ippu-Do keyboardist Akira Mitake.

Sparse keyboards and subtle pads create atmospheric textures throu…

Statica Memoria
With Statica Memoria, zakè returns to Affin for his third solo album. Over the past years, his work with the label has developed into a distinct and continuing body of work, shaped by an ongoing exploration of duration, resonance and the spaces that emerge when sound is given enough time to unfold.

Open Air: The Complete Saxophone Quartet Compositions of Julius Hemphill
This recording brings together the forty known compositions for Saxophone Quartet by Julius Hemphill (1939-1995). These works were composed between 1978 and 1989 for performances with the World Saxophone Quartet. These compositions are, with the fewest of exceptions, written specifically “on” the saxophone quartet. He will at times set a piece written for his small-group ensembles onto the saxophone choir, but in the main, this music is created on and through the saxophones. He uses the saxopho…

Air De Rien
*2026 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Air De Rien, because it is not nothing all these small tunes in the air... This double vinyl is shared - each one its face - by four musicians or groups who each traces in watermark an original line of conduct, soft and harsh, off the beaten tracks.
A lot of purity in this project - and in these four achievements - in those times of useless filling. Music and visuals are discreet, a fine black and white, like the engraving of this psychedelic pseudo-brain…

Sorcery
Sorcery is the ninth album for Jim Jupp, aka Belbury Poly. It grew from Jupp’s love of early to mid-80s electronic music and a rediscovery of how that music had soundtracked his childhood love of all things sci-fi and fantasy. It’s moody and melodramatic electronica rendered in bright and evocative 80s sounds. The not quite 80s tunes have Belbury Poly’s trademark earworm melodies and are ever so slightly tongue in cheek. Jupp returns to a simple line up for this album - it's a very electronic so…
