The Stooges
The Stooges turn three chords and a bad mood into a new language, eight songs of slack‑jawed menace and bored fury that quietly redraw the limits of late‑60s rock and sketch punk’s silhouette in acid‑scarred pencil.
In Mid-Air (Golden 3)
Originally released in 2003. The first electronically generated sounds that Charlemagne Palestine ever heard came from the machines he encountered in ordinary daily urban life.

Then he heard the electronic music of Tod Dockstader, Pierre Henry and Pierre Schaeffer, the f…
Handbook For Mortals
2025 stock Thought these were long gone, but hey, not so fast! Originally released in 2013, this was Letha's 1st foray into the vinyl game AND her 1st under her own name (as opposed to Tretetam, which she'd been using since 2008). 'Handbook' is a lovely sound pastiche of everyday day life turned inside out. Both ambient & disturbing, her sound distillations are wondrous & hypnotic respites in this suffocating modernity. FFO; Moondog, United Dairies label, John Bender. Very last copies.
