One of the most unique albums on the Strata East label – and that's saying a heck of a lot, given the creative energies flowing through that legendary jazz outlet! Descendents Of Mike & Phoebe is a righteous little project put together by Spike Lee's father, Bill Lee, and his brothers and sisters (Cliff Lee, Grace Lee Mims, and Consuela Lee Moorhead) – working here in a group named after their slave ancestors, who are paid tribute in a beautifully flowing batch of tunes! Lee's round, warm bass t…
Remastered sound, faithfull gatefold sleeve reproduction, insert with liner notes. A limited repressing of only 500 copies - please note that the first pressing sold like hot bread and has been unavailable ever since, do not miss this killer edition repressed by popular demand! With several connections to the early Kraftwerk history and formed in the Rhineland area in 1971, Ibliss was a quintet formed by percussionist Basil Hammoudi (from Organisation, the band before Kraftwerk), drummer Andreas…
Earthball are an avant/noise/rock wrecking ball of a band from Nanaimo, Canada. Rooted in total improvisation, free expression, and a deeply psychedelic sensibility, EarthBall operate on pure instinct. They hurtle onwards in a combustion of spontaneous composition, shooting from the hip, as they fall out of the sky ablaze. The group encompass Isabel Ford (vocals, bass), John Brennan (drums, percussion), Jeremy Van Wyke (vocals, guitar, trumpet), Kellan Maclaughlin (guitar, talkbox), and Liam Mur…
*75 copies limited edition* Plumes emerges from a long-term sonic and ethnographic exploration of the Étang de Berre, a coastal lagoon near Marseille, France shaped by industrial pollution and ecological disruption. Recorded between 2021 and 2024, the album captures fragile entanglements between human activity and more-than-human life. Using hydrophones, ultrasonic detectors, and parabolic microphones, Bullock and Silva probe the lagoon's submerged acoustics, bat echolocations, and the overlappi…
"Messrs. Corsano and Dorji are both familiar names in the Feeding Tube discography. Chris has played drums on eight FTR LPs (and recorded two other), and Tashi has played guitar on six (details upon request if you are lazy.) But this is the first time they have appeared on vinyl as a duo, and we are damn proud to have them. Over the past years Chris has recorded with a lot of the era's best guitarists -- Bill Nace, Ben Chasny, Thurston Moore, Nels Cline, David Vanzan, Bill Orcutt, Rick Bishop, G…
English Language Edition A tribute to Derek Jarman manifold and vital practice.

Conceived as a reader, this volume includ…
1974 Dutch split-LP released by the Instant Composers Pool with a 1964 live recording by the quartet backed with a Mishs Melgelberg solo recording from 1972.
With Writing, Ahmed - the quartet of Pat Thomas, Joel Grip, Antonin Gerbal and Seymour Wright - turn a decade of notes, essays and sleeve texts into a woven chorus, mapping how their deep dive into Ahmed Abdul‑Malik becomes a living method for making future music.
2023 repress. 180-gram black vinyl. Volume two of Sun Ra's classic Heliocentric recordings from the 1960s. The astonishing sessions that went light years beyond "free jazz" improvisation to create a music of deeply-felt, explosive and gentle gesture made from sound itself without reference to previous notions of melody or harmony are now reissued on 180 gram vinyl with Sun Ra's original, self-created cover art. Recorded by Richard Alderson on April 20, 1965, this set of tunes finds Sun Ra breaki…
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.
The definitive publication accompanying the most comprehensive exhibition ever dedicated to one of the most visionary composers and polymaths of the 20th century
One of the most iconic Italian library music albums ever, Woman’s Colours by the Giancarlo Barigozzi Group (with Sergio Farina and Oscar Rocchi) emerged from Milan’s vibrant studio scene. Originally released in 1974 under the supervision of Fabio Fabor, it’s a refined concept work blending jazz-funk, jazz-rock, bossa nova and exotica, featuring Wurlitzer, Fender Rhodes, fuzz guitars and expressive flutes, balancing groove and elegance. Over time it has attained cult status, now regarded as a cor…
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…
On War Poem, Chris Connelly turns antique tape machines into artillery: a single, accidental loop blooms into side‑long, grief‑stricken immersion, where scorched industrial sonics and stark anti‑war outrage fuse into something brutally intense and unnervingly beautiful.
A landmark in avant-garde jazz, The Finnish / Swiss Tour captures the irrepressible energy and inventiveness of the Hal Russell NRG Ensemble live in Europe. Recorded in November 1990 at the Tampere Jazz Happening (Finland) and the Internationales Jazz Festival Zürich (Switzerland), this album documents the group’s first European tour and was originally released by ECM in 1991.
Led by multi-instrumentalist Hal Russell (tenor & soprano saxophones, trumpet, vibraphone, drums), the NRG Ensemble feat…
Our first personal contact with Bryn Jones was in 1995 when the Muslimgauze album "Silknoose" came out on my Daft Records label and the contact was always excellent. He knew that Eric, who did the mastering, and I loved his music since the beginning. Later on we planned a mini CD with 4 Muslimgauze / Sonar and 4 Sonar / Muslimgauze remixes so we exchanged some audio pieces to work with and to our great surprise Bryn sent us two DAT tapes with 16 remixes in total with the message "Any plans you h…
**300 copies, 2019 stock** "With its ability to deliver both thick melodic lines as well as enveloping harmonies, the cello is a natural choice for artists looking to create a mood of tranquility. Over the course of his recording career, Aaron Martin’s knack for using the instrument to generate mournful tones, disquieting harmonic undercurrents, and the unwinding of melodies has opened up a world of nuance to a series of striking solo pieces.That being said, there’s an argument to be made that M…
A total surprise to have VCV album 'Round The Bend' drop this week. An album of Jandek adaptations created by Brian Grainger and David Tagg. These tasteful versions pay tribute to to the originals with the artists adding their own dimension. If you're feeling miserable this Christmas then this will liven up the party (not). although I do get an uplifting feeling from their version of 'Alehouse Blues' which is probably the best title of a track ever. Authentic looking artwork too all approved by …
