Testament
CD digipack. Fire! have always been about finding the essence by getting to the core of the music. Their 8th album sees the trio - for the first time on record - stripped down to the bare-bones essentials; with no flutes, no electronics, no guests and no extras, recorded live in the studio to analogue tape - the Steve Albini way - with the master himself at the controls in Electrical Audio in Chicago. Thus, this album stands as a true testament to the group´s expressive power and glowing intimac…
Artificial Dance
The story of electronic music pioneer Kerry Leimer continues with a focus on his auteurist studio project Savant. Compiling the standalone album, 1983’s The Neo Realist (At Risk), with Savant’s debut 12″ and a grip of compilation and unreleased tracks, Artificial Dance documents Leimer’s complete collaborative venture into the unpredictable realities of music, exploring the gulf between what is expected by its creators and what is eventually – and eternally – committed to tape.Savant was designe…
A Mountain Sees a Mountain
A Mountain Sees a Mountain, the new duo recording by Hamid Drake and Pat Thomas, captures two master improvisers engaged in an intimate yet expansive dialogue. Released in October 2025 via Old Heaven Books, the album bridges African rhythmic philosophy and European avant-piano traditions, achieving a deep equilibrium between motion, meditation, and melodic abstraction.
American Rituals
Tip! On the outskirts of late 1970s Olympia, Washington, something stirs, sings, and breathes. Cheri Knight, a music composition student at the Evergreen State College, is developing her practice in a quaint but adequately equipped campus recording studio, amalgamating with the sonic timbre of the surrounding time, space, and place, while devoting to her own inner maxims. At once performative and meditative, electronic and organic, collaborative and self-contained, Cheri’s early compositions are…
Induction / Mutation
Tip! *200 copies limited edition* At the end of 2024, Eric's purchase of an electric cooker with induction hobs was the catalyst. Between auscultations and improvisations, Eric offered Francisco his recordings of the object in his kitchen. In return, Francisco completely reinterpreted these recordings. From this dual level of listening, the elements created resonated in each artist's sound world.
Pieces created from shared original raw sound source materials.
Issue 134 (Magazine + 7")
The latest issue of Electronic Sound plunges deep into the dark, uncompromising world of Clock DVA, Sheffield's electro-industrial provocateurs, with an extensive cover feature retracing the group's explosive formative years. What begins with main man Adi Newton rubbing shoulders with future members of The Human League in The Future quickly escalates into a tale of banned venues, constructivist aesthetics, and fearsome live performances that rivalled those of Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltai…
To Magnetize Money and Catch a Roving Eye
**A 4+ hours labyrinthine work, previously unreleased** Jim O’Rourke is among the great voices of his generation - a true musical polymath, whose diverse efforts, since his emergence within the Chicago scene during the late 1980s, have continuously altered the creative landscape. Without him - from his relentless support of the careers of neglected artists, to contributions made within the vast and radical diversity of his output - now tracing across hundreds of releases - so much of what is, co…
Music For A Revolution Vol. 2 - Guinea's Syliphone Recording Label (1968-1980)
On October 2 1958, after over 60 years of colonial rule, Guineans voted overwhelmingly for their independence, and Guinea was declared a Republic with Sékou Touré as President. Guinea was the first of West Africa’s Francophone colonies to gain independence. To free Guinea from its colonial legacy, president Touré sought to restore dignity to his nation and give cause for Guineans to take pride in their culture, history and newfound freedom. To achieve this, he instructed his government to implem…
Water Witches

Remastered by Paul Corley, it offers over five hours of haunted ambient and drone, conjuring dense, hallucinatory soundscapes that blur the line between ritual and environment. A definitive grimoire for those drawn to acousmatic magick and deep listening.
Rivbea Live! Series, Volume 4
"When I came to New York City in 1975, after my second period in Paris, I felt as if I was starting again. I didn’t have a band at that time. The Black Artists Group had broken up, or separated—well, it wasn’t much of a “break-up,” but we had come to our musical end, even though one of the last groups I had before returning to New York was with BAG member Baikida Carroll playing trumpet, Peter Warren on bass, and Oliver Johnson on drums. I was basically by myself. I felt eager and anxious to see…
Tribal Ghost
** 2024 restock, long out of print - few copies available ** Here’s an astonishing fact: This album was recorded during John Tchicai’s first and only weeklong residency at a New York jazz club. Tchicai — co-founder of the New York Art Quartet, one of the most innovative bands of the 1960s; member of Albert Ayer's New York Eye and Ear Control; participant in John Coltrane’s Ascension, perhaps the most influential of Coltrane’s late works; practitioner of world music-jazz fusions in bands such as…
Gift Songs
Jefre Cantu-Ledesma returns with Gift Songs, a deep distillation of touchstones and influences drawn from the natural world and his spiritual practice. Enlisting a brilliant cast of collaborators, and blending a rich sonic palette of guitar, modular synthesizer, and acoustic instrumentation and arrangements, Cantu-Ledesma illuminates a profound sense of humanity and transcendent possibilities across a suite of five sublimely minimal compositions. Drawing its title from Cantu-Ledesma’s belief tha…
Nel Mondo Del Lavoro
Few albums capture Italian library music at its most purposefully conceived as Nel Mondo Del Lavoro. Originally released in 1972 on Sermi - one of the foundational labels of the Italian production music scene, co-founded by Sergio Pagoni and Michelangelo Cunsolo in close orbit with Bruno Nicolai and Ennio Morricone's world - the album was commissioned as the soundtrack to a RAI television documentary series on the petroleum industry, Sapere: Il Petrolio. What Rino De Filippi built from that brie…
For Peace and Liberty - In Paris, Dec 1972
Wewantsounds is delighted to announce the release of BAG's first album since 1973, "For Peace and Liberty", recorded in Paris in Dec. 1972 when the musicians had recently arrived from St Louis. BAG only released one album during their existence. This long-lost performance, recorded at Maison de l'ORTF in optimal conditions just a few months previously, was thought lost until recently unearthed from the vaults of INA (Institut National de l'Audiovisuel). Here the group unleashes an incandescent 3…
Solo I / Solo IV
2026 repress. In the quiet extremities of contemporary composition, few have ventured as far into the territory of disappearance as Jakob Ullmann. This release documents the simultaneous realization of two works from his remarkable series of Solo pieces - compositions that exist somewhere between notation and performance, between instruction and interpretation, hovering at the very threshold of audibility. Begun in the late 1980s as Ullmann sought to depart from strict Western notational convent…

The box includes works by Charlemagne Palestine, Luc Ferrari, Bru…
Super Compact Disc
On Super Compact Disc, Masonna rams his entire harsh‑noise vocabulary into a brutally compressed format: hyper‑short eruptions of feedback, distortion and mangled voice that hit like jump‑cuts between micro‑meltdowns, leaving no room to breathe or acclimate.
Tuning
A pioneer of sound art, Christina Kubisch gathers three compositions transforming "non-musical" sonic phenomena into compositional forms. Electromagnetic waves, medical tuning forks, and abstract textures converge in a work that redefines the boundaries of listening
Warsaw (LP)
Unofficial 1980 LP on RZM Productions with the tracks recorded for the unreleased album - the RCA sessions. This may be the first edition but with matte instead of laminated sleeve. The 7"EP it originally came with is not included.
