Many Many Women by Petr Kotík is a large-scale composition for voices and instruments from 1975-78 on the text of Gertrude Stein's novella of the same name. It was published in Paris in 1910 as part of the book G.M.P. - Gertrude, Matisse, Picasso. In 1972, the book was published again by Dick Higgins in his publishing venture Something Else Press. Kotík used the complete text, which determined the length of the piece. Inspired by his close collaboration with the composer and singer Julius Eastma…
2026 Stock. Alan Vega, born Alan Bermowitz in Brooklyn, had spent the 1970s as one half of Suicide, the New York duo whose drum-machine menace unsettled audiences a decade before anyone thought to call it synth-punk. By the mid-1980s he had set out, against every expectation, to chase the mainstream: Saturn Strip (1983) took him to Elektra under the wing of Ric Ocasek of The Cars, a long-standing Suicide champion, and Just A Million Dreams followed in 1985, again produced by Ocasek with Chris Lo…

An unceremonious release of some old songs strewn across the past few years, played and recorded into a lounge room in Annandale, Gadigal land. Marking a time of playing around lots with jasper (when time was easier to wrangle) and hopefully making room for new songs to come visit! we are singing forever. Sounds from budapest train, typewriter, guitars, an old fan favourite, kata, jasper, laughter.
**Limited edition of 222 copies, black vinyl two color screenprinted cover** At eight o'clock on a March morning in 2024, as Amsterdam awakened around it, Charlemagne Palestine took his place at the console of the Vater-Müller organ in the Oude Kerk—the city's oldest building, a Gothic monument dating to 1306—and opened a portal. What emerged over the following forty-plus minutes, now captured on this limited edition LP, stands as one of the most concentrated distillations of Palestine's six-dec…
»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.

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 …
In March 2022, Joe Fonda and Silke Eberhard met at the Downtown Music Record Store in New York, and just six months later they were on stage together with Austrian drummer Emil Gross in Berlin. The Josilemi Trio was born. The collective trio's compositions and improvisations are powerful, driving, elegant, structured and refined, combining diverse influences with improvisational inspiration. It is music that is completely connected to the moment and yet totally future-oriented. It is Music for h…
Caught at the exact moment the young trumpeter steps fully into his own. Recorded July 2, 1962, at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, released in 1963 on Impulse!, this is Hubbard with technique to burn but warmth to match - every line sculpted, every phrase rhythmically alive. Around him a ridiculous cast: John Gilmore (yes, the Sun Ra tenor man) shadowing Hubbard's lines with that crooked, unmistakable tone, Curtis Fuller and Tommy Flanagan filling out the harmony, Art Davis and Louis Hayes locking dow…

** 50th anniversary Limited Edition ** The fourth full-length album by legendary German electronic music duo Cluster, originally released on Sky Records in 1976. Sowiesoso follows on from their most highly-acclaimed album, Zuckerzeit (1974). Michael Rother's influence was clearly audible on the latter, Cluster having already recorded two albums with him under the name of Harmonia. 1976 saw the duo looking for new musical forms. More than any other Cluster album, Sowiesoso represents the utopian …
Vanessa Rossetto returns to ErstSolo with The Professional, a double CD that takes the figure of the amateur as both formal occasion and conceptual question. The album grew out of Rossetto's 2025 European tour and, in particular, a performance at the Jauna Muzika festival in Vilnius, whose edition was themed around amateur practice. For the occasion Rossetto assembled recordings of people singing their favourite songs, prepared a backing track, and set up microphones so that audience members cou…
277 pages. 196 x 268 mm. Open NOW JAZZ NOW and you're not just looking at a book - you're entering the minds of three lifelong obsessives. Byron Coley (music writer and critic), Mats Gustafsson (saxophonist, The Thing, Fire!), and Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth founder, solo artist) have spent decades accumulating, discussing, debating, and above all listening to free jazz and free improvisation. This book is the result of that shared mania. What they've created isn't a conventional history or a ra…
Wrens creates music that is modern and without immediate comparison. This is revolutionary art, both musically and lyrically. Had Miles Davis lived to be 100, continuing on his path of repeatedly changing the direction of jazz, it would be easy to imagine that by 2026 it could have sounded like Wrens, not only because of the heavily affected and brilliant trumpet playing, but because it feels so contradictory to the institutions that breed much of this music today. When asked about the meaning b…
