Alle Sorgenti Delle Civiltà - Vol. 3 - Africa - Australia - Nuova Zelanda
Blue Vinyl. Two giants of Italian library music. Two continents. Fourteen tracks of tribal, ritualistic sound. Musica Per Immagini presents the first-ever vinyl reissue of Alle Sorgenti Delle Civiltà Vol. 3, the final chapter of the legendary Folkmusic triptych originally released in 1971. Somewhere between the editing suites of Cinecittà and the ethnographic archives of a parallel universe RAI documentary department, two of Italy's most prolific sonic chameleons shed their studio pseudonyms lik…
明天废墟 = Tomorrow Ruins
2025 stock In 2014, Tatsuya Yoshida participated in the first Tomorrow Music Festival, and his improvisation with Mamoru on the night of the performance was the first time the two musicians collided, and the improvisation, which lasted less than 30 minutes, brought the audience's perception of “improvisation” to a new level. The last two improvisations in Ruins Alone: Tomorrow's Ruins were recorded live at that time.
All Life Long
Created between March and May 2020, Does Spring Hide Its Joy is an immersive piece, positioned as a “study in harmonics and non-linear composition with a heightened focus on just intonation and beating interference patterns”.
Another Perfect Day
Eight years since his last solo electric guitar record. Bill Orcutt returns to what made his playing essential: slashing chords, frenzied double-picking, angular runs that climb and ricochet. Recorded live at Cafe OTO. No computer loops. No gentle melodic glow. Just Orcutt and his four-string Fender through a tattered Twin Reverb.
Chameleon Body
Chameleon Body suggests shape-shifting, adaptation, camouflage - apt metaphors for Merzbow's endlessly mutating sonic identity. The chameleon changes appearance while remaining essentially itself; similarly, Akita's work transforms constantly while maintaining recognizable characteristics. The "body" element grounds these transformations in physicality.
This golden-period document captures the project at peak flexibility, demonstrating Akita's ability to shift between approaches without losing c…
小品集 (Selected Small Works) Vol.1
Unlike earlier Archive installments sourced from cassette masters, this series was remastered from original DAT tapes, ensuring superior audio quality. These volumes collect shorter pieces - concentrated bursts of Akita's most celebrated period. The decision to release "small works" separately reflects curatorial sensitivity; these pieces might otherwise be lost as bonus tracks.
They demonstrate that Merzbow's genius operates at any duration - brevity concentrates rather than diminishes impact. …

These volumes collect shorter pieces - concentrated bursts of Akita's most celebrated period.

Live at Doushisha University
This live recording from Doshisha University captures Merzbow in performance during the Pulse Demon era - a unique document of how golden-period studio work translated to live contexts. The academic setting creates intriguing tension: extreme noise in an institution of learning, challenging assumptions about appropriate sound.
Akita's live performances during this period were legendary - intense, confrontational experiences testing audiences' physical and psychological limits. University perform…
Zeit
Blue Translucent Vinyl Originally released in 1972, Zeit would be Tangerine Dream's third full length album, and the first to feature the main trio of Edgar Froese, Peter Baumann, and Chris Fanke. The German electronic group pioneered the entire dark ambient genre with this work, whose title translates to "time," and was based on the philosophy that "time was in fact motionless and only existed in our own minds." Also worth noting is that Popol Vuh's Florian Fricke plays Moog synthesizer on th…
Notti Senza Fine
** 200 Copies. Includes printed inner sleeve with lyrics and credits. ** Cut it up. Stick it back together wrong. This is Magazzini Criminali at their most deliriously inventive - a Florence-based theater collective that understood William Burroughs's cut-up method as an operational principle for sound itself. Released in 1983, Notti Senza Fine is their second LP, a document where theater becomes indistinguishable from electronic collage, where the stage disappears into tape loops and reassemble…

Carnaval 2
Adding to their already singular catalog of releases, Three:Four Records returns with Carnaval 2, a stunning new work by the composer Alessandro Bosetti, performed by pianist Reinier van Houdt. A vividly conceptual and post-modern hybrid, reinterpreting Robert Schumann's Carnaval as a radically reconsidered series of piano and electro-acoustic interludes - forcing the sensibilities and aesthetics of 19th Century chamber music to coexist with those of avant-garde - it's easily one of the singular…
And I Heard a Voice
Estonian vocal ensemble Vox Clamantis and their leader Jaan-Eik Tulve have established themselves among the leading interpreters of Arvo Pärt’s music over a quarter-century of close collaboration with the composer – a relationship that builds on the almost half a century long artistic partnership between Pärt and producer Manfred Eicher. Of the ensemble’s ECM New Series recording The Deer’s Cry, the BBC Music Magazine wrote that “the level of artistry necessary to achieve the kind of living, bre…

Her creative vibrancy is alive as ever on the two recent works p…
Ndikho Xaba And The Natives
*50th Anniversary Remaster* Outstanding!! Matsuli Music presents soul, spirituality and avant-garde jazz from South African political exile Ndikho Xaba. Its rarity has until now served to obscure both its beauty and its historical significance. Making profound links between the struggle against apartheid and the Black Power movement in the USA Ndikho Xaba and the Natives is arguably the most complete and complex South African jazz LP recorded in the USA. It stands out as a critical document in t…
The Quietly Clouds And A Wild Crane
* Edition of 300 copies * This latest instalment from NoBusiness Records collaboration with the Japanese Chap Chap label under the name of Yuji Takahashi with Sabu Toyozumi constitutes a real find. A wonderfully mystic vernal episode of free improv music recorded in Tokyo, 1998. Piano and percussion album of the highest beauty, interactive on a telepathic level and execution. Yuji Takahashi is a Japanese avant-garde composer and pianist. In Japan he was by then already well established as leadin…
The Winds Rise in The North
Composer Harley Gaber wrote this piece for strings as an emotional examination of the questions posed by Taoist philosopher Chuang Tzu, here performed by a quintet including violinist Malcolm Goldstein
Streichquartett N°4 Opus 33
String Quartet No 4, opus 33 (1976-87). Performed by the Arditti String Quartet. "infinite to be cannot be infinite, infinite anti-be could be infinite" (for nine string quartets or a string quartet surrounded by an imaginary 128 string-"viola da gamba"). "Among contemporary composers, Horatiu Radulescu is one who has something essential to express about the enigma of time: multi-layered lines of events, their structuring, perception and potential for poetic-religious message are -- together wit…
Hi-Nology
Gatefold packaging. Terumasa Hino is undoubtedly one of the most famous Japanese jazzmen. Learning the trumpet at the age of nine, he began his career as a professional musician by playing in the orchestra of an US Army base, before joining Hideo Shiraki's Quintet and then forming his own band in 1964. On Hi-Nology, his brother Motohiko Hino appears on drums, Hiroma Suzuki on electric piano, Kumitsu Inaba on electric bass and Takeru Muraoka on tenor sax. The inspiration from the "electric period…
