Barzakh
*2023 stock* "This album marks the beginning of an ongoing and fruitful relationship between Tunisian oud master/composer Anouar Brahem and the ECM label. From the exhilarating solo “Raf Raf,” we know we are in the presence of someone whose sense of touch, rhythm, melody, and atmosphere speaks straight to the heart from the mind of a visionary. This first track puts us into a time and place where only melody speaks, and the sands of time flow like blood in an infinitely chambered heart. The titl…

Music Frees Our Souls Vol. 1
*2024 stock* Before any instrumentation, Francisco Mela addresses his fellow musicians, pianist Matthew Shipp and bassist William Parker, with a sense of anticipation and affirmation, “Okay guys, ready? Rolling!” The sense of camaraderie and his artist-focused approach is heard throughout the album’s majestic improvisation—as well as in its inspiration, dedicated to Mela’s longtime musical partner, the legendary jazz musician McCoy Tyner. Tyner was well-known for his boundless musical talent, an…
Horizontal Alliances, Vertical Conflicts
Nine years after Play Cat's Cradle, Rose and Sandy return to the same ecclesiastical source - here an auto-harp from the same convent - for a second extended collaboration, again played and processed live. The album divides into nine spectral bands functioning as strings to be stopped, muted or amplified, and reads the intervening years as a shift from devotion and idealism to entropy and conflict. The acoustic body remains, but its overtones now turn cold, shrill, fractured.

Live
2024 repress, replicate reissue. "Originally released in 1968 on the International Artists label. This is their third album, which is not a live album at all.

Suffering from depression and other mental health issues, Farren teamed up with an all-star cast, including members of Quartermass and ex-Tyrannosauros Rex honcho Steve Peregrin Took for debut opus Mona The Carnivorous Circus, mixing hard rock, spoken word, spaced-out interludes, radio cut-ups and garage rock, rendering…
Contrefaçons
In September 2023, at the Hiventy laboratories in Joinville-le-pont - formerly Pathé - we recorded the film restoration (image and sound) and development processes. Following the mechanical and digital processes, we listened to and interviewed the technicians to understand what goes into restoring a film. How do you restore a film to its original state? To do this, we need to get close to what viewers of the film could perceive in the cinema. The way we look at and listen to a film has evolved s…
Dez Anos Depois
Nara Leão's Dez Anos Depois, released in 1971, is a stunning double album that revisits her musical journey and celebrates her contributions to Brazilian music. Known as the "Muse of Bossa Nova," Leão recorded this reflective and intimate collection of reinterpreted classics in both Paris and Rio de Janeiro. The album features timeless tracks like "Chega de Saudade," "O Barquinho," and "Corcovado," showcasing her gentle yet emotionally powerful vocals paired with minimalist acoustic arrangements…
The Complete Yale Concert, 1966
Bomb! ** Sourced from the master tapes. First-time vinyl reissue ** Groundbreaking early work from drummer Milford Graves and pianist Don Pullen – a set of long, free improvisations that were originally issued on Graves' Self-Reliance Productions label! The music is even more striking than sounds from the time on the ESP label – and also really predates some of the freer work of this type from the European scene – as Graves is a monster on the drum kit and a range of percussion, reaching out wit…
