At Quadrant Park
**Edition of 500 compact discs with artwork by Robert Beatty unique to every individual copy. Each copy forms one distinct frame of a short film never to be viewed in its totality.** For the inaugural release on Quadrant Park, SDEM delivers a live recording with a twist: this set was recorded in early 2024 in a single take to an audience of one, at a now abandoned empty club space beneath a railway arch in Leeds. Following a series of physical and digital releases culminating with Vortices in 20…

Layering Buddha
For AI-41 Astral Industries presents a vinyl reissue of Robert Henke’s multifaceted concept album ‘Layering Buddha’. An erudite masterclass on sampling and composition, ‘Layering Buddha’ encapsulates the material process of metamorphosis and a well of nascent, ever-present potentialities. This new edition comes remastered by Henke himself.

Fancy cannot cheat
Ten arrangements, dialogues, compositions. Direct, diverse, dating you quietly, never naming the act. They arrive on tape, twisted sided. Shaped by Belgian drummer and sonic wanderer Karen Willems. A mover between scenes. Breaker of frames. Restless in sound. She likes to step into that space, where you can push, strike, remain in motion. Where curiosity earns its name by never staying the same. “Fancy cannot cheat” is title for her latest beat. There is ambient breath. There is classic stretche…
Frictions / Frictions Now
Awesome archival CD covering the entire production by The Free Jazz Group Wiesbaden, a quartet with the odd instrumentation of reeds (Dieter Scherf), trumpet (Michael Sell), guitar (Gerhard König, who also played flute) and percussion (Wolfgang Schlick). They released two appropriately schizoid LPs on Scherf’s LST label in 1969 and 1971 (Frictions and Frictions Now, here collected) before disbanding. This is a stunning copy of their first very rare private press side, 1969 Frictions, a spectacul…
The Making of Five Leaves Left
Fifty years gone and the music still cuts right through. Nick Drake recorded three albums before leaving this world at 26. The debut, Five Leaves Left, appeared in 1969 – and we're only now hearing how it came together. Hold on to your hats.
Nine years of detective work. Tapes surfacing from the most unlikely places. A mono listening reel held by Beverley Martyn for over half a century – Drake's very first session at Sound Techniques, untouched since the day it was recorded. A full reel from Cai…
Nemiesta
Three years after the release of Black Angels Songs, Miroslav Tóth together with Dystopic Requiem Quartet comes up with a rare album inspired by non-places, i.e. buildings and objects that were either unfinished, abandoned, over-multiplied, or were marked by mining and yet had no meaning in the end. Also featured on Non-places is Nénia, a track dedicated to the victims in Ukraine, written three days after the outbreak of war during the album's creation. The recordings were made in the Czech Repu…

10.11.12
300 copies. All compositions by Howard Riley (PRS / MCPS), except “Lush Life” by Billy Strayhorn. Recorded live at VDU Jazz Festival Kaunas on the 10th November, 2012 by Areas Zujus. "Brilliant work from pianist Howard Riley – the British modernist who's been making amazing music for decades, but often through very obscure records like this! Riley's got this sense of balance, tone, and timing that sits justly in a legacy that starts with Herbie Nichols and runs up through Alexander Von Schlippen…
