Some recordings can foreshadow the future in ways that are hard to grasp in the moment, and Teodros Makonnen With His Organ (Teodros Makonnen ከኦርጋኑ ጋር) is one of them. Known as Teddy Mak, Teodros Makonnen helped define the digital sound of Ethiopian music that emerged from the 1980s onward, not only as a keyboard player but also as a producer, songwriter, performer, and sound designer. Although electronic instruments and digital production are now taken for granted in Ethiopian music, the early …

Three LPs came out on Jihad, the label Amiri Baraka ran out of his own house in Newark. Two of them - Sonny's Time Now and A Black Mass - entered the canon of the New Thing decades ago. The third stayed a rumour: a title traded between collectors, a track a radio DJ might drop once a year, a record far more people had heard about than heard. Original copies surface rarely and sell for three figures. Black and Beautiful... Soul and Madness is back, on vinyl for the first time since 1968.
Baraka -…
In Creating Enka: The “Soul of Japan” in the Postwar Era, Yusuke Wajima dismantles one of modern Japan’s most durable cultural myths. This prize-winning history shows how enka - often treated as timeless tradition - was actively remade after the war, becoming a powerful, contested symbol of national feeling, commercial culture and popular memory.

The release is on white vinyl, in a limited and numbered edition of 150 copies, including a collector's edition of 20 copies, each featuring bespoke talismans, painted by the artist in squid ink, to be worn as patches or kept safe somewhere to ward off misanthropists.

Kyoto trio Kukangendai return on Marionette with Baquet Wheel, five tracks of purely acoustic minimalism recorded live through Taku Unami’s binaural microphone. Through collage-like repetition the band fold jazz, krautrock, blues and Tuareg into one unified, timeless rhythm – primitive, precise, and impossible to place in time.
DINTE present a cassette-only issue of an NTS radio broadcast from back in early 2019; a cross-continental trip through instrumental surf, short-run garage rock, and space-age psych oddities from across the globe, incl. groups from the US, UK, Peru, Angola, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, India & Singapore among others.
On Phren, Marta Salogni and Stefano Pilia build a shared electro‑acoustic architecture where guitar, tape machines and field recordings circulate like memory in motion. Signals move through modular processes, echoes and Revox loops until origin and reflection blur, turning six slow‑unfolding pieces into a living study of sound, time and feeling.
Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling, and Andreas Werliin return with Ghosted III, their most immediate and adventurous collaboration yet. Recorded at Stockholm's Studio Rymden, this third excursion into spontaneous rhythm creation blends ambient neo-jazz, postkraut, and minimal funk with newfound looseness and wild exuberance.
*2026 stock. 200 copies limited edition* Air De Rien, because it is not nothing all these small tunes in the air... This double vinyl is shared - each one its face - by four musicians or groups who each traces in watermark an original line of conduct, soft and harsh, off the beaten tracks.
A lot of purity in this project - and in these four achievements - in those times of useless filling. Music and visuals are discreet, a fine black and white, like the engraving of this psychedelic pseudo-brain…
Vocalist, producer and musical visionary Jimetta Rose announces the release of solo album MettaSun, via our dub label Day Dreamer. Inspired by the interplanetary mythologies of Sun Ra, MettaSun reimagines a selection of the cosmic jazz pioneer’s most iconic recordings through Jimetta’s unique lens – a powerful expression of the female imaginary and a positive vision of radical hope and Black joy amid the chaos of contemporary America. MettaSun is Jimetta Rose’s solo opus. Embracing the Sun Ra’s …
The Kármán Line is the threshold - the precise altitude at which the Earth's atmosphere ends and open space begins. Outer Worlds Jazz Ensemble understood the metaphor immediately. This is music made at that exact boundary: grounded in groove and breath, but pulling steadily toward something without ceiling.
The story begins in Tokyo. Neil Innes - bassist, producer, the animating force behind ATA Records and its consistently remarkable Leeds-centred roster - and woodwind voice Chip Wickham were n…
Almost forty years after it was initially released, 'The Moon and the Melodies' by Cocteau Twins and Harold Budd is reissued on vinyl for the first time – remastered, from the original tapes, by Robin Guthrie himself.
* Edition of 300 copies. High thickness cardboard with opaque laminated cover. Comes with a printed insert. * Founded initially as the The Beckerlee Quartet sometime towards the late 1950s and early '60s, a time during which time they went through various lineup changes before morphing into The Contemporary Jazz Quartet, in 1962 they began playing the Vingaarden club in central Copenhagen as one of the earliest European adopters of the emerging movement of free jazz. It was there that they came …
Originally released in November 2024 as a physical only, limited edition physical boxset, Swans’ Live Rope is now being made on CD at retail. A document of the band’s US/EU 2023-24 live tours, this material laid the blueprint for the band’s most recent studio album, Birthing, released May 2025. Spanning almost 3 hours of trance-inducing melodies that morph into dense walls of sound, the album is anchored by Gira’s unmistakable vocals and crafted with longtime collaborators on lap steel, bass, Me…
Big tip! Romanian composer, conductor, and musicologist Iancu Dumitrescu is often described as one of the leading figures of spectral music, yet he has produced a body of powerful works resonating with explosive sound and friction that places him very much in his own universe. Dumitrescu studied under his compatriot, the conductor Sergiu Celibidache, who rarely left behind concert recordings. From him Dumitrescu absorbed phenomenology and conducting techniques, incorporating them into his own co…
** Hand numbered edition of 250 ** There is a profound resonance between the practices of Nam June Paik and Park Jiha - separated by generations yet united by a shared impulse to dissolve boundaries between Korean tradition and contemporary expression. Paik, the pioneer of video art, wove shamanic ritual and Buddhist philosophy into the fabric of technological media; Park Jiha channels ancient instrumental voices through the sensibility of experimental minimalism. Both artists inhabit a liminal …
*300 copies limited edition* A brand new albm by Incapacitants, completely recorded in 2025 and released in 2026. Incapacitants don't need long introductions: they simply are one of the great japanoise monsters!
Telecom Confusion: Countless communication cables stitch together the night sky and the ground of the city in chaotic disorder. They are not mere lines, but pulsating nerves, carrying streams of light, scattering sparks and bursts of static in places. In the background, a distorted silho…
LP 180 Gram. A definite killer from the great Gianni Ferrio – one of his grooviest soundtracks ever, and a set that's filled with lots of mod 60s touches! There's a bit of electric sitar, psychedelia, cool bubbling Hammond, and even some jazzy horn parts that make for nice flourishes over the top – all changing up in cool and different ways from track to track. A 1969 co-production between Cinevic and Rai TV for a mini television series that was aired in 3 parts - April 17 to May 1, 1969 - direc…
*2026 repress* This is the only solo album by American soul singer James "Baby Huey" Ramey.
