This House is a Body
London experimental spoken word and electronics duo BAG land on Phantom Limb with mesmerising new album This House is a Body, marrying visceral poetry with exploratory production to achieve beguiling, occasionally screwy and occasionally dreamy sonics. “This album functions as a floor plan, a house in itself, collecting and containing the ecosystems of multiple rooms,” write BAG - Canadian artist and poet Jody DeSchutter and London producer Daniel Allison. “The roles we play can be defined by th…
Enth
Aquainted through their shared love of music technology, and now a friendship, this is the second-time pairing between two well-known musicians from the ambient and electronic scene since some decades: the German artist Arovane and the American artist Taylor Deupree.After their first release together in November 2022, "Skal_Ghost" on 12K, this new release explore once more an organic journey built around loops and layers or processed and re-processed sounds giving this particular color to a new …
Dogon A.D.
Complete sessions / expanded edition. One of the most important jazz albums of the 1970s – finally in its definitive edition. Julius Hemphill's Dogon A.D. is the missing link between the avant-garde and the blues, between the cotton fields and outer space. Recorded on a freezing February day in 1972 at Oliver Sain's Archway Studios in St. Louis – no heat, malfunctioning equipment, some musicians didn't even show up – and yet what emerged was nothing short of a masterpiece. An "almost accidental …

Mattanza
50th anniversary limited edition. First-ever 24Bit/192kHz remaster from the original tapes. 180g black vinyl, numbered. His father was an American soldier from North Carolina who left Naples when James Senese was eighteen months old and never came back. What remained was a saxophone, a surname that didn't fit the neighbourhood, and two musical worlds that Italian society had no language to reconcile. Senese found that language himself - first in the soul and R&B of the Showmen in the 1960s, the…
Hubris
** 2026 Repress ** First released in 2016 and long out of print, Hubris has come to feel like a pivot in Oren Ambarchi’s catalogue - the moment when his fascination with groove, repetition and ensemble friction finally detonated into something both overwhelming and weirdly precise. This new edition gives that record the sonic treatment it always deserved. Working from the original mixes, mastering engineer Joe Talia revisits the album with what can only be called forensic care, teasing out layer…
L'Oeuvre Electronique
Incredible 10xCD lavish box set, a 11+ hour compendium of the electronic music key works from one of the most important electronic composers of the 20th century complete with a 106 page book.

Another Flower
Darla Records is honored to offer Another Flower, a new record by two singularly and sonically recognizable masters of lush beauty and minimalism respectively, Robin Guthrie and Harold Budd. Another Flower was recorded at Robin's home studio in France in 2013 and was held unreleased, until now.Another flower follows Robin and Harold's previous work together Bordeaux (2011), matched set After the Night Falls and Before the Day Breaks (2007) and Mysterious Skin (2004) and of course The Moon and th…
East Two + 7
Eeast Two + 7 comprises previously unreleased tracks from one of Sun Ra's most productive periods: 1972–73. Those two hectic years saw Sun Ra recording numerous albums, staging concerts, teaching at Berkeley, acting in and composing the score for a full-length movie, embarking on a multi-album (though ill-fated) major label deal, and touring the U.S. and Europe. The title track, "East Two," is one of two pieces on this album originating at a two-day October 1972 session at Chicago's Streetervill…
TripleAkuma
TripleAkuma is the third in a series of essential live documents from Merzbow. The stage and the studio are not the same place, and Merzbow has an acute understanding of this juxtaposition. Whilst the sheer density of the music might be maintained across both spheres, the live experience of Merzbow is truly something that exists as profoundly physical and moreover, overtly performative.
Merzbow’s live methodologies draw not just from a saturation of frequency at all levels, but a recognition of …
Geschrieben in Wasser
On geschrieben in wasser., Klaus Lang pares the piano quartet down to a faintly breathing organism, letting soft, slowly shifting harmonies hover at the edge of audibility like something written on water just before it disappears.
Gungala La Pantera Nuda
Orange Vinyl. A hidden gem that earns its name. The original Cinevox pressing of this 1968 soundtrack existed in such a limited edition that few collectors ever held a copy - until now. Ruggero Deodato - then still years away from the notoriety of Cannibal Holocaust - directed Gungala La Pantera Nuda, the second entry in the Italian jungle-girl series starring Kirsten Svanholm, better known as Kitty Swan, a Danish model and acrobat briefly claimed by the Italian B-movie circuit of the late Sixti…
Transcendent Universe
Pianist Joel Futterman and bassist William Parker deliver an epic improvisatory journey on this three-track, hour-long studio recording. Futterman and Parker have worked together in duo and group contexts since the 1980s, and their deep creative bond is audible in every note of this suite.
With A Heartbeat
Originally released in 2003, With A Heartbeat brings together Pharoah Sanders, Bill Laswell and Graham Haynes in a collaboration that remains as elusive as it is forward-thinking. Now reissued by Glossy Mistakes, the album receives its first official vinyl edition, remastered and available both in standard black and a limited burgundy pressing.
At the core of the record lies an unusual but striking element: the steady pulse of a human heartbeat. Rather than a conceptual gesture, it becomes the f…
Firebirds Live At Berkeley Jazz Festival Vol I
On Firebirds Live At Berkeley Jazz Festival Volume 1, Prince Lawsha convenes a dream quintet with Hadley Caliman, Bobby Hutcherson, Buster Williams and Charles Moffett, igniting a front‑line of reeds over vibraphone‑lit rhythms that balance spiritual uplift and fierce swing.
Dossier
100 copies. Six volumes in a slipcase (I–VI) plus a multiple, signed & numbered. English/German. A singular act of archival reconstruction, mounted in faithful keeping with the wayward spirit of its subject. Edited by An Paenhuysen, Die Tödliche Doris - Dossier gathers six independently bound volumes inside a slipcase to assemble one of the most thoughtful and idiosyncratic portraits yet attempted of the legendary West Berlin group and conceptual constellation.
Among the most enigmatic figures t…
Xerrox
Xerrox Vol. 1 is the third studio album by German electronic artist Alva Noto. It was released in 2007 as part of the ongoing Xerrox pentalogy, based on the concept of digital replication of source material.
Using the process of copying as a basis, the Xerrox series deals with the manipulation of data through endless reproduction. Due to the inherent fallacy of making copies from other copies, everyday sounds become so altered that they are hardly associated with their source material. As a resu…
Zermisz
*150 copies limited edition* If you have been paying close enough attention to the often strange yet alluring part of the world Richard Youngs operates in, you should have noticed that since the middle of 2025 he embarked on a new sonic journey that has subsequently become a trilogy of LPs on Fourth Dimension Records. Each of these is limited to 150 and is named after either a mythical Babylonian king or entity of Richard’s own devising, while the music itself has been of an instrumental nature …
Vents d’aether
»vents d’aether« is the first collaborative album by sound artist Jérôme Bouve and composer-performer Delphine Dora for Hallow Ground. The six pieces are based on live improvisations on organ and harmonium. They were recorded in different churches on the Cotentin peninsula in France’s Normandy region and later enriched with additional field recordings by SA~RA. This adds an extra layer to compositions which were created both in and out of the moment and which quite literally resonate with the hi…
