May 99
Tip! Black vinyl, with silkscreen and insert. In the spring of 1999, Charles Curtis, Alan Licht, and Dean Roberts brought an unconventional mix of drone, improvisation, and experimental rock on an eleven-stop tour of Europe. The concept was straightforward, yet novel: each night, they would improvise a single piece while sustained sine waves played for the duration of the concert. May 99, culled from three shorter pieces recorded for a radio program at Amsterdam’s VPRO near the end of the tour, …

In The Groove
2025 much needed repress!! Since its formation in 1969, Soul Media had been advocating a fusion of jazz and rock. The next step along that line was this album, In the Groove, recorded in 1973. The sharpness of jazz is brought to the forefront, with rock melting in to give it an edge, and funk injected to imbue it with power and resilience. The result was a strong, sophisticated, and simply "cool music" that could not be categorized within existing genres such as jazz rock, jazz funk, or fusion. …

Master of All Times
On Master of all Times, Paul Chain sinks deep into his singular doom‑psych continuum, braiding monolithic riffs, church‑organ atmospheres and glossolalic vocals into a slow, occult spiral where time feels stretched, fractured and finally irrelevant.
The Rotters' Club
* 50th Anniversary Expanded Edition 2LP, 180g audiophile vinyl * The Canterbury scene produced some of British progressive rock's most distinctive and enduring music - a sound that owed as much to jazz and the European avant-garde as to rock, delivered with a peculiarly English wit and warmth. At the heart of this movement stood Hatfield and the North, a band whose brief existence between 1972 and 1975 yielded two albums that remain touchstones for adventurous listeners five decades later.

On Beacon Hill
On Beacon Hill: at twilight we find Anthony Moore, roots winding backwards to the halcyon days of Slapp Happy and the ‘70s progressive art rock scene, at guitar and piano. With the atmospheres and accompaniments of AKA & Friends, he breathes infernal new life into songs from his six decades of multivarious music making. This new delivery system is unto a séance, a communal incantation, twining Anthony’s avant and pop traditions together in a darkly radiant coil of folky chamber music; a rope to …
