Transportées
300 copies. Marie Guérin (aka Marie de la Nuit, meaning Marie of the Night) is a sound artist. Since 2001, she has been manipulating field recordings, radio archives, traces left on the airwaves by "hertzian ghosts". A mixture of voices, textures, grains, anecdotal sounds, her work questions the sound heritage, its supports and the traces left on these supports; her music passes from radiophonic grammar to music. --- "Transportées is an electroacoustic work. From archaic to electronic trance, a …

Pancake Moon
On her sophomore album Pancake Moon, Michiko Ogawa crafts a liminal soundworld suspended between darkness and light, fusing sho, piano, and synthesizers into reflections on memory, loss, and renewal. Released in late 2025 by Futura Resistenza, the record drifts through introspective layers and subtle textures, inviting listeners into an immersive experience that is at once deeply personal and quietly radiant.
Dendö Marionette
At the dawn of the 1980s, Osaka’s Dendo Marionette stood at the forefront of Japan’s first great Synth-Wave explosion—an underground movement where icy electronics collided with the raw urgency of Post-Punk. Their sound was both futuristic and deeply atmospheric, channeling a restless creative energy that mirrored the global wave of experimentation while remaining distinctly Japanese.
This definitive double LP brings together the band’s complete studio legacy, finally giving shape to a story t…
Learning
‘Learning’ - Sophie Agnel’s first solo LP, feels like the dark, physical inversion of her excellent ‘Song’ which came out on Relative Pitch earlier this year. Sinking her unique sound into vinyl for the first time, the LP arrives as Agnel recovers from a brain tumour - a shocking discovery that will require Agnel to start again with the piano. It’s a terrifying prospect, but Agnel has been here before, having reorientated herself almost entirely away from her early classical training over the la…

Tandoor Dog
*2025 Stock* "In 1998 Staalplaat and Muslimgauze were on a conquering spirit. Bryn Jones (1961-1999), the man behind Muslimgauze delivered new works, almost on a weekly basis and was more than happy to see them released straight away. Unlike others, Staalplaat was never shy to release larger works, lumping various works together, such as the 9CD “Box Of Silk & Dogs”. Allowing free reign in editing, the 4LP box set ‘Tandoori Dog”, contained the LP of the same name, which saw only eight out of the…
Mohammad Ali Jinnah
*2025 Stock* "Unsurprisingly for an artist as prolific and strident as Bryn Jones was, the flood of material he sent to labels and compatriots was not always carefully categorized. Also, sometimes he would be so eager to release material that if things didn’t happen fast enough he’d just send in another tape. And that circumstance is how you wind up with a fascinating oddity like Mohammad Ali Jinnah.Staalplaat has previously released, in 2002, the Muslimgauze album Sarin Israel Nes Ziona. While …
Live in Rhein Main
Live in Rhein-Main by Gestalt et Jive documents the group’s most audacious mutations through two pivotal live sets, revealing an intricate interplay of improvisation and postmodern eclecticism. The album’s raw edges and unpredictable transitions expose the band’s commitment to redefining avant-rock’s boundaries, blending kinetic jazz idioms, punk dissonance, and European experimental traditions into a deeply engaging experience.
Zulaqrex
*150 copies limited edition* Zulaqrex, named after a mythical being that only exists in Richard Youngs’ head, is the album sequel to the now practically sold out Zerkelus LP and once again features themed artwork and is limited to 150 copies. Like its predecessor, Zulaqrex consists of two side-long tracks both given the same name as the title and once more charting a course into the beyond via a hypnotic approach that even some fantastically stumbling percussion cannot offset. Also employing shi…
La Munglesa
*70 copies limited edition* In the mid-1960s, Teresa Viarengo, one of the most vivid memories of Piedmontese folk repertoire, confided this song among many others to Franco Coggiola and Roberto Leydi. The ballad is also mentioned under the title “Un'Eroina nei Canti popolari del Piemonte” (A Heroine in the Folk Songs of Piedmont) by Costantino Nigra. It is a bloody story in which a count marries Munglesa, the daughter of a baker, takes her to his castle and, along the way, confesses that he has …
The Music of Butterfly
More than two decades since he blew minds with a suite of brilliant releases on Warp, Vincent Gallo returns to the world of music at long last in Butterfly, his duo with Harper Simon, with the project’s full-length debut, “The Music of Butterfly”. A gesture of gentle, DIY / bedroom left-field pop, falling within the rough territory for which Gallo became renowned during the late '90s and early 2000s, while interweaving fascinating flirtations with minimalism and experimentalism, it’s a truly ca…
Ladja
Louis Xavier’s "Ladja" is a landmark album that elegantly fuses jazz with the vibrant soul of the West Indies, blending Afro-Caribbean traditions with bold, progressive jazz-fusion arrangements. Originally released in Paris in 1981, "Ladja" showcases Xavier’s profound influence and creativity as a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and a pillar of the Parisian music scene since the 1970s. This album features an ensemble of celebrated musicians, including Alain Jean-Marie and Jean-Louis Bucchi on p…
Japan Suite
"Recorded live at Yamaneko-ken, Ogose, Saitama, Japan, in December 2019, Japan Suite includes 6 kind free jazz pieces in Japanese style. The fantastic idea of this album is actually to confront kind free jazz phrasing of François Carrier with the truly free jazz phrasing of Masayo Koketsu. That is actually the second amazing aspect of this album: the battle of two alto saxophones. The opening monumental Uchi-soto - Inside Outside is a great illustration of these aspects. All of this happens with…
Bach Tunings
Bach's 3 Sonatas for Solo Violin, arranged by Marc Sabat for two violins using Just Intonation tunings, together with three short introductory pieces by Marc Sabat.
New Morning
Collective interplay is essentially about listening and giving space. If ever there was a credo for this ensemble recording, this would be it. Sometimes the soloist or a small group steps forward, other times they play as a large unit. This collective of musicians are connected through old and new friendships, a set of relations that has been formed through two decades of co-creation on stage and in the studio, and their new recording is a reaffirmation of that with an A-side of free improvisati…
Sysivalo
Mika Vainio started making a new Ø album in 2014. He almost finalized the record before his too early passing in 2017. The album Sysivalo is the 9th out of 8 full scale albums, released under the Ø alias by Vainio. Ø was his longest running project from 1993 to 2017.
