God Spill
On God Spill, Victoria Mingot drags folk guitar through faulty circuitry and hissed devotion, stacking rough improvisations, blurred vocals and glitched drones into a slow, translucent act of repair where presence and disappearance keep trading places.
Everything You Giveaway
On Everything You Giveaway, Pablo’s Eye turn Richard Skinner’s seaside vignette into a drifting meditation on loss and camouflage, where a missing jade earring becomes a quiet parable about hiding what hurts in the very element that once held it.
Obsession (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Waxwork Records, in partnership with Back Lot Music, presents Obsession Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Rock Burwell. Obsession follows a hopeless romantic that finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price.
“A big focus while composing Obsession was the idea of exploring the uncanny valley, finding the space where emotions get warped into something disorienting, where you’re no longer sure what’s real" Burwell notes. "C…
The Third World-Underground
CD edition. A title like a manifesto, and music with the conviction to carry it. For a few nights at the close of 1972, the Jazzhus Montmartre in Copenhagen held a trio that would barely survive the season. Abdullah Ibrahim - then still recording as Dollar Brand - sat at the piano; Don Cherry stood with his trumpet; Carlos Ward raised his alto. From the performance of November 14 came The Third World-Underground, a record that surfaced only in Japan, on Trio Records' Nadja imprint in 1974, and t…
He's Coming
Released on Polydor in 1972, this is Roy Ayers hitting his stride. The Ubiquity sound has clicked into place: jazz improvisation, funk underneath, soul harmony, spiritual weight, all of it pulling in the same direction. The vibraphonist leans hard into groove without losing the openness, soul-jazz tipping over into the jazz-funk that would carry him through the decade. The band is loaded - Harry Whitaker on electric piano, organ and voice; John Williams on bass with Ron Carter stepping in on "We…
Movies
This vinyl album by Micheal Mantler is new old stock from Ecm archives. For light relief from his darker, more existential works, Michael Mantler assembled two fine ensembles at the end of the 1970s to play music that might be described as the Thinking Man’s Answer to Fusion. Imagine walking into an art house cinema where the projector runs without film - the stories unfolding purely through Michael Mantler's haunting trumpet and the alchemy of his stellar ensemble. That's the experience of Movi…

Solid Static
On Solid Static, Musica Transonic / Mainliner - Asahito Nanjo, Makoto Kawabata and Tatsuya Yoshida - turn late‑90s Tokyo psych into a feral laboratory, smashing motorik riffs, free‑jazz volatility and distortion worship into one long, white‑hot detonation.
By the Lake Festival
On By the Lake Festival, Faust bottle a singular Berlin afternoon: iconic early pieces - including a choral‑bolstered “Why Don’t You Eat Carrots?” - rendered raw, sun‑bleached and unrepeatable, preserved in a lovingly remastered document that leaves every glorious flaw intact.
St. John Green
The album “St. John Green” is the only release by the American band of the same name, and is regarded as a minor cult classic of 1960s psychedelia. It was released in 1968 by the small label Flick-disc. Released at the height of the flower power era, the record perfectly captures the musical and cultural atmosphere of the late 1960s. The album blends various elements typical of psychedelia with sonic experimentation, garage lysergic influences and a free-spirited approach to songwriting.
M

Remastered and available for the first time on vinyl and digital. “A compilation of secret projects recorded over a period of twenty years…
Lettera Cosmica
Huge Tip! Since the 1970s Mario De Leo works as a musician and visual artist. His mechanical paintings are hybrid works that reveal the cosmic spiritualism hidden in the meanders of electronics. With Riccardo Sinigaglia (Futuro Antico, Correnti Magnetiche, Doubling Riders) De Leo consolidates an artistic and human partnership with Lettera Cosmica, a work unpublished to date, produced and recorded in 1981. In a wacky electronic vision of the succession of time, the tracks trace the four seasons i…

His sound and presence are truly top of the tops.

Since his debut album Alone, Alone and Alone, Terumasa Hino has remained at the foref…
Slot Machine Music, Vol. 1 & 2: Field Recordings from Middle American Casinos
"Video gambling addicts, academic researchers, and industry professionals alike describe the trancelike state into which problem gamblers suspend themselves with remarkable consistency: they unanimously call it the machine “zone,” a kind of inner experience during which the rhythmic flow of human-machine collusion borders on mysticism. Time is abolished in the act of contemporary video gambling—simulated slot reels roll, virtual poker decks deal, and all worldly concerns are lost—leaving only th…
Bidule 2.0
On Bidule 2.0, eRikm tunnels into a cache of unheard Pierre Henry tapes, feeding analog “sound objects” from 1950–1974 through his custom digital apparatus to forge a dense, flickering work where early musique concrète and present‑tense signal processing fold into one another.

Earthquake
"On Earthquake, the third and final cassette released on Slaughter Productions, Drift takes on a slightly different angle to the previous two cassettes. Where as The Beyond and Exile were firmly planted in pitch black ambient territory, the desolation on Earthquake is Saharan. Bright, Sirocco, and sun scorched. Afterall, who said Dark Ambient needs to be cold? In a sense, the listener is transported to an abandoned archaeogical dig while faint middle eastern tones waver in and out of the surfac…
L'Oriole
L'Oriole is the meeting point between violinist and composer Clara Lévy and sound artist Stéphane Clor. Combining violin, violoncello piccolo and a unique orchestra of resonators and transducers, the duo explores birdsong, resonance and the transformative power of sound. Acoustic instruments are projected into cymbals, drum skins, aluminium cans and other resonant objects, creating rich layers of colour, texture and spatial depth. Inspired by the work of Olivier Messiaen and his fascination with…

Complete Works for Multiple Piano
In Complete Works for Multiple Piano, Morton Feldman’s quietly radical writing for three or more hands is heard as a three‑hour continuum of hushed, hovering sonorities, where time dilates and the piano becomes a shared, breathing instrument.
