20 Jazz Funk Greats
2024 repress: The third studio album of the British industrial-band Throbbing Gristle, was originally released in 1979 and is often referred to as the band's masterpiece. Originally released in 1979, 20 Jazz Funk Greats is Throbbing Gristle's pop-influenced masterwork. It's hard to believe the beautiful, conventionally-attractive Cosey Fanni Tutti on this album's front cover previously gave herself milk and blood enemas in front of a live audience. Additionally, the song "Hot On The Heels Of Lov…
Muriel Grossmann Plays The Music Of McCoy Tyner And Grateful Dead
At first glance, the idea that McCoy Tyner and the Grateful Dead might share musical DNA seems like a stretch. One built frameworks to support Coltrane’s spiritual flights—rewriting the jazz harmony playbook while turning chords into flexible architecture. The others were a San Francisco circus of psychedelic chaos and Americana grooves, an improvising rock band whose mythology often overshadowed their musicianship. On the surface, Tyner and the Dead appear to come from different galaxies. But l…
Contra Madre
The late pedal-steel guitarist Susan Alcorn leaves a final surprise hinting at new directions left underexplored on her collaboration with Nomad War Machine, the improvising metal duo of drummer Julius Masri and guitarist James Reichard. Their death-metal-influenced pummel adds new fire to her molten flow across a suite of improvised tracks that show off the vast range and simpatico of the trio. Julius Masri and James Reichard of Nomad War Machine: An unexpected opportunity arose out of a catchi…

La Conquista di Luna
In July 20, 1969, as Neil Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface, an Italian pianist and composer named Luciano Michelini was completing work on one of the most extraordinary documents of that moment's cultural impact: La Conquista Di Luna, an imaginary soundtrack to humanity's greatest adventure. There was no film. There would never be a film. What Michelini created instead was something rarer and more enduring: a sonic fantasy of space exploration that captured the wonder, mystery, and optim…
Inner Urge
** Special Time-Limited Offer ** Inner Urge finds Joe Henderson pushing his quartet – McCoy Tyner (piano), Bob Cranshaw (bass), and Elvin Jones (drums) – into more intense and complex territory. The title track’s driving rhythm and restless harmonic motion set the tone for a session where the stakes feel higher and the edges a bit sharper. Henderson probes motifs, worrying them from different angles, unafraid of jagged contours or sudden leaps. Tyner’s dense voicings and rolling left hand, Crans…
Two Actors
"Messiaen traded his goods for brain rot. Mark Harwood, the elusive Penultimate Press helmsman, slips into character again—plural, fractured, unreliable. Two Actors plays like a dialogue without a script: human versus machine, or one man arguing with his own shadow. Unlike his first solo record, "A Perfect Punctual Paradise..” voices only mumble and stumble on occasion. Here the “Actor(s)” appear in a variety of forms; sincere, female, mocking, beautiful, journalistic, operatic and more. Digital…
Ghost Story
Ghost Story, by Ron Geesin, is a previously unreleased, wildly inventive soundtrack to Stephen Weeks’ cult British horror film of 1974. Blending traditional folk motifs, modern electronic experimentation, and eccentric studio craft, Geesin’s score is at once haunting, playful, and profoundly original - characterized by spectral atmospheres and surreal sonic storytelling.

Originally released in October 1967 by Philips Records, this cult classic returns to vinyl, restoring its haunting, eerie ambiance for a new generation of psych explorers.
Blending psychedelic and folk rock influences, H.P. Lovecraft draws direct inspiration from the cosmic horror tales of author H.P. Lovecraft—the band's namesake. The albu…

Huge Tip! **300 copies, comes with a printed insert** The second LP in Black Sweat’s latest batch, ‘I Tarantolati’ the first outing of Antonio Infantino with his band, Il Gruppo Di Tricarico, while very different in its musical approach, belongs to the same wild ferment around Folk Studio in Rome, and was issued by the Folkstudio label the year prior in 1975.
Antonio Infantino was poet and singer, who operated in circles connected to Beat literature and Italian performance and gestural music cir…
Vstal
*2026 stock. 60 copies limited edition* "Vstal is a collection of seven songs created in a dialogue between the experimentalist and composer Manja Ristić and the meticulous observer and field recorder Tomáš Šenkyřík. The album takes listeners on a journey across the European continent, from Ristić’s home on the Adriatic coast to the Czech-Austrian borderlands and the Moravian floodplain forests, which have long inspired Tomáš Šenkyřík’s sonic explorations. This broad scope, sensitively linking t…
Live In Stockholm And Tallinn
Tip! Misha Panfilov, the Estonian contemporary jazz mover whose many Janus faces amount to more than just two, resulting in many album avatars - here shares a live recorded rendition of a recent pair of shows, played back to back in Stockholm, then Tallinn.

Trombi
Finland's Augustus Pablo strikes again! The fourth album by this Nordic melodica wizard delivers deep authentic roots reggae the way it should be done - heavy instrumental vibes, skillful melodica playing and compelling organ work wrapped in a classic rockers manner. Lightman does it ALL himself - writing, arranging, playing, producing, recording, mixing and mastering. One-man roots army!

Oda
Vic Bang's "Oda" arrives quietly - it was waiting for the right moment. The eight tracks are shaped by listening, by circling around sound instead of chasing it... you can definitely hear patience in the pacing, a willingness to let ideas linger, to let all the small motifs breathe.
The album moves with a softer and more deliberate rhythm than much of Vic's earlier work, as the sound world here feels concentrated and cohesive, built from a limited set of elements that gradually reveal themselves…
New Africa
** Deluxe matte laminate gatefold sleeve and polylined paper inner sleeve ** A vital document of artistic resistance and spiritual searching, New Africa captures a transformative moment in jazz and global Black consciousness. Recorded in Paris in 1969, the album stands as a deeply personal and boldly experimental statement from American trombonist and composer Grachan Moncur III — one of the most compelling figures of the avant-garde movement and a master of what would become known as spiritual …
Dried plum music for the grim reaper / gathering tiny traces
I’m very happy to present a split cassette of two of my favorite tape music artists from Denmark. A half hour of strange magnetic signals, unidentifiable voices, and all round textural bless. Too quiet to be noise, too gnarly to be ambient, but absolutely perfect for this label.
Country dreng country hund
One hour of exquisite microcassette manipulation from a great friend of the label. A free flowing audio diary documenting daily routines and primitive audio experiments. Some of the best tape murk to be produced on danish soil for many years.
Grinning Cat
With Grinning Cat, Susumu Yokota continues to refine his delicate ambient universe through a dreamlike balance of melody, texture, and silence. The 2001 album merges found sounds, piano fragments, and vaporous rhythms into an otherworldly narrative of domestic tranquility and imaginative reverie.
