* Double CD edition. Metallic silver ink printed on high gloss paper * Eliane Radigue's complete Opus 17, her finest and final work created using feedback, is contained on this double CD. With Opus 17 Radigue perfected her slow mixing technique with sublime results. Imperceptible transformations envelop the attentive listener who is confronted with an immensely physical experience. Time is suspended in powerfully poetic and artful ways as Radigue masterfully sculpts the physical matter of sound …
** Edition of 300. One time pressing. No digital. ** In 1934, Swiss engineers completed the Chandoline Hydroelectric Plant, channeling Alpine water through 16 kilometers of concrete pipe. By 2023, the turbines had stopped. The plant was empty, silent - a cathedral to obsolete energy with perfect acoustics and nothing left to say. Christian Marclay saw an instrument. For the inaugural Biennale Son in 2023, the artist who made his name destroying vinyl in 1980s New York turned the entire hydroelec…
Composed by Arthur Williams. Recorded on December 19, 1978 at WKCR, New York. Forgiveness Suite is another worthy rediscovery by NoBusiness Records, focusing this time on trumpeter Arthur Williams, an almost forgotten figure of the free jazz scene of the late Seventies. Williams participated in some interesting recording sessions of the period, like First Feeding by Jemeel Moondoc’s Muntu Ensemble, Lowe And Behold by the Frank Lowe Orchestra and most significantly Peter Kuhn’s Livin' Right, tha…
100 copies limited edition, on white/blue vinyl edition Accessing the history of avant-garde and experimental music from Latin America has always been a complex affair - the true breadth of activity during the second half of the 20th Century sinfully under-documented, the result of political and economic circumstances that unfolded across decades. Over the last years, reissues have begun illuminating the remarkable creative triumphs that transpired in Peru, Chile, Argentina, Cuba, Brazil, Venezu…
Mort Garson's road to the sublimity of Plantasia meant a decades-long journey through an underworld of sophisticated, international, string-laced arrangements - over a thousand writing, conducting, and arranging credits - to arrive at this set of queasy-listening revelations. A Canadian-born composer, arranger, songwriter, and pioneer of electronic music who worked until his death in 2008, Garson's knack was to exist in both worlds: super-commercial and way out. Via his wizardry, the synthesizer…
Six years before the release of his landmark Mother Earth's Plantasia, composer and arranger Mort Garson met experimental film director Skip Sherwood, who was interested in an electronic score for his new movie, Didn't You Hear? While not much is known now about the exact nature of their collaboration, we have Garson's magnificent score as a record of those heady, early days after his life-changing discovery of the Moog synthesizer. This stands as one of the first-ever all-electronic movie score…
The year is 1971 and Mort Garson - already prolific in the emerging world of Moog synthesis through his zodiac series and the gentler Mother Earth's Plantasia - decides to peer into darker territories. Under the singular moniker Lucifer, he releases Black Mass, an album that remains his most unsettling and focused work.
This is occult electronics before the term had any real meaning. Ten pieces exploring supernatural phenomena through purely synthetic means - the Moog interpreting exorcism, witc…
* Edition of 100 copies * Two years of sessions went into this record, spread between 2023 and 2025 at Marmalade, the West Loop studio Ishmael Ali co-founded and works in as an engineer. Nobody was watching the clock. You can hear that in the shape of the thing: ten pieces that were never meant to add up to a single argument, solo cello miniatures wedged between full band tracks, a couple of them actual songs with words and a singer. The solo pieces may be the strangest part of it. Ali amplifies…
Recorded in a bedroom with classical guitar and 4-track tape, The Next From Field Commander is Australian folk of rare emotional density. Layered vocals, inhabited silences, a voice that lingers.
"A small gift for a great Cecil Taylor history. On 23 April 2016, Jay Sanders organised and recorded a concert whose significance at the time was impossible to estimate. The great Cecil Taylor was accompanied by the wonderful musicians Okkyung Lee, Tony Oxley, Harri Sjostrom and Jackson Krall. After the concert, Cecil announced that it was time to return to the legendary formula he had used several times in his career, which served as an emblem of what was particularly important in his work.

A groundbreaking collaboration between two Japanese cultural giants: Seiichi Yamamoto — a pioneering figure in Japan's avant-pop scene and former member of Boredoms, Omoide Hatoba etc — and legendary photographer Daido Moriyama.
Inspired by Moriyama’s iconic photographic style, Yamamoto has composed a sonic tribute — a soundtrack, or perhaps a love letter — to Moriyama’s raw, evocative imagery. The result is an unparalleled work of art: progressive, genre-defying, and emotionally expansive. From…
*70 copies limited edition* Paratexts, by definition, are everything that stands beside (‘para’ in Greek) the main content of a work, or the so-called “body text” of a book. The reading performance Sounding Out (Reading Paratexts) explores this “beside” as a site and sounds out paratexts as testimonies of the labour and collective efforts behind the making of a book. What kind of bodies emerge when we read dedications, acknowledgements, colophons or editorial notes? They can unsettle the notion …
Music for Writers is a wordless collection of pieces meant to accompany thought and inspire another way. It is music made in both stillness and motion, music that listens as much as it speaks. Each track offers a space—open, textured, often slow-moving—where ideas, images, and feelings drift in and out. It's a record I've been thinking about and wanting to make for a long time - my first solo instrumental album. The album was recorded across places—Brooklyn, Berlin, Latvia—using a minimal setup:…
