First Recordings 1978-85 V1.2
The man from Wichita remains a cutting-edge explorer who always manages to stick a salt finger in the wounds of truth. John Duncan - performance artist, sonic terrorist, shortwave radio alchemist - emerged from the Los Angeles underground in the late 1970s, studying under Allan Kaprow at CalArts before falling in with the Los Angeles Free Music Society (LAFMS) and collaborating with Tom Recchion, Paul McCarthy, and Fredrik Nilsen. His early work drew from Viennese Aktionism, Jerzy Grotowski's "P…

Involucri Policromatici
*2025 stock. 300 copies limited edition* Three generations of Italian industrial music converge in Involucri Policromatici, where legendary pioneer Maurizio Bianchi (MB) joins forces with Mulo Muto and Icydawn. The title, translating to "Polychromatic Envelopes," suggests the layered, prismatic approach to sound construction employed throughout this collaborative work.
Bianchi's historical weight as one of industrial music's founding fathers adds gravitas to the younger artists' contributions, w…
Triadic Memories
*2025 stock* The celebrated pianist Aki Takahashi presents an essential interpretation of Morton Feldman’s monumental work "Triadic Memories", a cornerstone of late 20th-century piano music. Known for its meditative expansiveness and delicate shifts in color, this composition stretches the boundaries of time, inviting listeners into Feldman’s unique sound world where silence and resonance carry as much weight as the notes themselves.
Recorded with Takahashi’s characteristic sensitivity and tec…

Divine Comédie
Last copies...Super tip! Divine Comédie stands as a magnum opus crafted by two of the foremost composers of their era, boasting a musical ambition akin to Dante’s poem and its visual interpretation by Sandro Botticelli or Gustave Doré. For a long time, this triptych was presented as a two-sided work in which Bernard Parmegiani’s Hell and François Bayle’s Purgatory responded to and extended each other, guided by Michel Hermon’s voice through the listener’s imagination. Because Paradise, a mixed p…
Thereupon
Thereupon is the long-anticipated return of the all-star collaborative trio Fieldwork, which has been described by NPR as a “power trio for the new century.” This long-standing collective comprises three internationally revered innovators of contemporary music: alto saxophonist-composer Steve Lehman, pianist-composer Vijay Iyer, and drummer-composer Tyshawn Sorey. In the seventeen years since their last recording, Door (Pi), all three musicians have climbed to the pinnacle of the creative music …
Monkey's Birthday
Tip! The collaboration between Anthony Moore and filmmaker David Larcher began in the late 60s, at the start of both their respective careers and lasted many years. Following on from last years release of the soundtrack to Mare’s Tail (the first collaboration with Larcher), this year sees the release of the soundtrack to his 2nd film, Monkey’s Birthday. This LP is a condensation of the essence of this 6 hour film. The sound is partly taken directly from the existing soundtrack and partly from st…
Great Day
Simon Haseley / Peter Reno's seminal 1972 library album Great Day receives its long-awaited debut vinyl reissue via Be With Records, pressed on 140g vinyl and limited to just 750 copies worldwide. Originally released on the legendary Music De Wolfe label, this exclusive LP captures heavy blaxploitation-esque drama-funk break themes that have influenced producers like Madlib, LTJ Bukem, El-P, and The Alchemist.
Points of Inaccessibility
Listening to Points of Inaccessibility is an encounter with a sound field that is constantly in flux. Elements surface briefly, shift position and recede, creating a sense of motion that resists stable interpretation. The music moves between closeness and vastness, carrying traces of memory while withholding a clear point of resolution.
The album’s visual identity completes the project’s conceptual arc. In Mexico City, where Irisarri and Schilp first met, Daniel Castrejón transformed stills from…
God Has Shot Himself
*249 copies limited edition* Reissue of the long out of print 1996 album. In the 22 years since "God Has Shot Himself" was released as a CDr by Legion Sudan, it has gained a somewhat mythic status as a notably disquieting release. Some might say disturbing — and they'd be right. But it's also more than that. "God Has Shot Himself" is the sound of abandonment, of spiritual collapse. It is just over a half hour of total blackening annihilation that still must be heard to be understood. Now on viny…
Terror Iridescence
“Terror Iridescence” is the 4th full length release by the latter-day, New York City based reincarnation of the seminal Punk Jazz/No Wave/Brutal Prog unit The Flying Luttenbachers, and the 17th album since 1992. After all of this, longtime fans tend to expect notable creative twists to be pulled by the band with each release, and this one will not disappoint. This time around, our heroes have issued forth a boldly abstract haunted-house salvo of dizzying surrealism, loaded with exceptionally biz…
Roundtrip
Tip, sold out at source! After more than 45 years forgotten in the personal archives of Jean Schwarz, Transversales Disques is very happy to release this previously unpublished recording which brings together the great Don Cherry and his friend, composer Jean Schwarz, pioneer in electro-acoustic music and member of G.R.M. This concert was recorded in 1977 at the Paris MIX festival (Théatre Récamier) organised by G.R.M and hosted by director François Bayle. An elegant mix of spiritual jazz and el…

CAM Sugar is proud to announce the definitive release of the original soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone for Il clan dei siciliani (The Sicilian Clan) by Henri Verneuil (1969), one of the most celebrated European noir films of the late 1960s, starring Jean Gabin, Alain Delon, and Lino Ventura.

Differenz/Wiederholung 2
Bernhard Lang's Differenz/Wiederholung 2 is a multi-media piece for amplified ensemble, three voices and video installation. While the music is filled with rocking-and-rolling, anti-grooving sound slaps, "scored free jazz", and crippled repetitions, three vocalists present texts (including rap) from Gilles Deleuze, William Burroughs and Christian Loidl, commenting on usual repetitive human habits and its nonsense. If Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica (1969) is a milestone of avant-rock, …
Piano Music
Georges Aperghis is probably still not much associated, by the public that internationally attends performances of his works, with music for solo piano. Music-theatre – of an uncommonly original kind, with extended vocal techniques much to the fore – has usually been his stamping ground. The concerns that his operas and other music-theatre compositions have embraced – often focusing around a highly individual approach to words and to all aspects of language, developed with great musical sophisti…
