Mount Analogue
Mount Analogue is a double‑album pilgrimage into René Daumal’s “symbolically authentic non‑Euclidean” world, conceived by Bill Laswell and P.ST as a musical counterpart to the writer’s cult novel. Daumal’s book, left incomplete at his death and breaking off mid‑sentence, follows a band of mountaineers seeking an invisible, unreachable peak on a hidden continent that can only be approached with obscure knowledge and altered perception. The record honours that premise by treating sound as a climbi…
Studio/Live
Savvas Christodoulou was born in Cyprus in 1949 and moved to Melbourne in 1950 as part of the great wave of Greek immigration following WW2. His story is long, involved and fascinating, and the liner notes and interview contained within the LP's 4-page insert tells the whole story.
Perhaps more briefly, what you need to know is that he released the Savvas studio LP in 1974 in an edition of 300 copies, and enjoyed such a strong local following that he sold out the 2,000-seat-capacity Dallas Brook…
1975 Mekeel Sessions
For years, Jackson C. Frank was as ghostly a legend as they come. Even the relatively few record collectors who revered his work were only aware of the lone LP released during his lifetime. For all most listeners knew, Frank made an incredible album in 1965 and then vanished, despite that record having been produced by Paul Simon.
1975 Mekeel Sessions features six tracks recorded in the mid-'70s at a studio in Lake Hill, New York about five miles from Woodstock where Frank was living at the time…
Noisextra
On Noisextra, Masonna condenses his infamous live violence into ultra‑compressed shock cells: all‑frequency spray, cut‑up screams and convulsive drop‑outs that feel less like tracks than controlled electrical injuries to the stereo field.
La Cuccagna
On La cuccagna, Ennio Morricone sketches early‑60s Italian life in miniature: light, bittersweet themes, small‑combo colours and gently ironic swings that mirror a young woman’s fragile hopes inside a consumerist daydream starting to fray.
Dolce Vita
Louis Matute unveils Dolce Vita, a bold and vibrant album. Recorded at the legendary La Frette Studio, this record blends Honduran heritage with Brazilian influences, merging jazz, groove, Caribbean rock and vintage textures into a poetic and deeply committed work. Having gained recognition at prestigious festivals, Matute collaborates here with remarkable artists such as Joyce Moreno, Dora Morelenbaum, Gabi Hartmann and Rico TK. In March 2025, Louis set up camp at La Frette, a rock-tinged, vint…

Morality
In 1985, Gary Mundy of Ramleh sent out an invitation. He asked artists in the orbit of his label Broken Flag to respond to a single concept: morality. Define it, refuse it, occupy it, destroy it. The results arrived on a cassette, catalogue number BF41, pressed in a run that circulated through the postal networks that kept the underground alive in those years. Most of it was never heard outside those networks. The title was not ironic. It was a provocation with genuine stakes.
Morality was alway…
Neu Klang: The Definitive History of Krautrock (Book)
In Neu Klang, journalist Christoph Dallach assembles an oral history of krautrock, letting Can, Neu!, Kraftwerk and their peers explain how post‑war Germany’s experiments in noise, rhythm and repetition became a blueprint for modern rock and beyond.

Music To Watch Seeds Grow By 008: Salamanda (Basil)
On Music To Watch Seeds Grow By 008: Salamanda (Basil), Salamanda miniaturise their left‑field ambient world into a single pot on a windowsill: a slow, luminous day‑in‑the‑life of a basil plant where light, water and time turn into gentle pulses, drips and dreamlike drones.

Reflexive Universe
2026 stock, reduced price ** Original Single Sided, Numbered **
Recorded live at Maya in Kobe on 15 September 1991 - with only Mayuko Hino on electronics and voice and Hiroshi Hasegawa on synthesizer and electronics - Reflexive Universe strips C.C.C.C. to its core and finds, in that reduction, something more concentrated and more volatile than the full ensemble.
The choice of John C. Lilly's CCCC as a name pointed toward a practice in which sound was genuinely conceived as a system of feedback …
Electronic Mind Waves
In the summer of 1976, a peculiar album appeared in Italian record shops bearing no artist name - only the cryptic moniker Elektriktus. The music posed a question that wouldn't be answered for decades: who had created this hybrid of jazz sensibility and kosmische synthesis? The answer was hiding in plain sight. Andrea Centazzo - recognized figure in European free improvisation who had shared stages with Steve Lacy, Evan Parker, and Derek Bailey - had been leading a double life between touring wi…
Royal
2018 small repress. Honest Jon's Records present a reissue of Derek Bailey and Anthony Braxton's Royal, expanded to include both intended volumes. Volume 1 was originally released in 1984; the second volume was never issued. The second release in a series of collaborations between Honest Jon's Records and Incus: three double-LPs of the legendary free-improvising guitarist Derek Bailey, solo (HJR 200LP) and in duos with Anthony Braxton and Han Bennink (HJR 202LP), augmenting the original releases…
Dart Drug
Percussionist Jamie Muir was a member of King Crimson during the recording of Larks’ Tongues In Aspic, in 1973. Staying less than a year with Robert Fripp, the Scot had already cut his teeth with another master guitarist, Derek Bailey, as part of the Music Improvisation Company, along with Evan Parker, Hugh Davies and Christine Jeffrey, whose eponymous 1970 album was one of the first releases on ECM. Muir and Bailey recorded Dart Drug eleven years later, in 1981.There’s no shortage of great perc…
Polaroid Piano
Akira Kosemura’s Polaroid Piano is a record that is very close to my heart. In fact, it is Akira’s work that was one of the drivers for Someone Good, one of the Room40 sibling labels, to be founded. Polaroid Piano marks the beginning of what would later become known as felt piano music, an approach to the piano which was picked up by numerous artists across subsequent years. It captures an essential and intimate rendering of the piano at close proximity, but it does more than that, it allows the…
Utopic Sporadic Orchestra
On Utopic Sporadic Orchestra - Nancy 1975, Jannick Top finally steps to the front of a large ensemble, unleashing a monumental, eighteen‑piece orchestral incarnation of his Zeuhl opus De Futura - a once‑in‑a‑lifetime blast of mythic low‑end and collective propulsion.
A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements
"A Small Life and Unnoticed Movements" was born from a live performance at Germi in Milan, later transformed in the studio through Fender Rhodes and subtle ambient processing. The six pieces are sonic micro-landscapes built around minimal gestures — a leaf’s trace, a small current, a dim light, an almost invisible presence. The music doesn’t describe nature; it follows its processes. It changes slowly, transforms without noise, and remains in a state of attentive listening.
The project is accomp…
