Live Non-Plus Ultra
On Live Non-Plus Ultra, Strain of Laws—the duo of Aaron Hemphill and John Wiese—drag voice and electronics through a pressure system of sub‑bass, hiss and mumbled fragments, documenting their 2025 LA set as a single, slowly suffocating industrial hallucination.

El Greco
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing, presents a remastered reissue of one of Ennio Morricone’s most celebrated collaborations with Luciano Salce, with whom Morricone maintained a loyal collaboration at the beginning of his career, from Il Federale, his very first film score, through La Cuccagna, Slalom and Come Imparai ad Amare le Donne.

Blasé
Florida-born saxophonist, composer, poet, actor and playwright Archie Shepp was one of the most articulate exponents of politicized black culture in the late ‘60s, a time of enormous upheaval and radical thought. Relocating to Paris he made a number of highly influential albums, such as Blasé, that broached the essential themes of freedom and racial equality, and tapped into the bedrock of African-American music. Gospel and blues were a major part of the work, which also had a strong avant-garde…
Sidiroun Parapetasma
“Sidiroun Parapetasma” is MMMΔ’s 14th release to date. The band is leaving -temporarily- behind the slow hypnotic beat experimentation of Nomenklatura and releases a powerful, majestic album of four tracks, a “clin d'œil” at the bootlegging practices of copying music to analogue tape and discarded X-rays in the Soviet era.
The music is heavy, monolithic and massive, filled with rhythmic explosions, repetitive motifs, ethereal synths and harsh atmospheric vocals or hidden screams that harmonize…
Miniatures 2020
** 2 CDs In A Dvd Case With A Thick 68p Book ** Rer Megacorp presents Miniatures 2020: A 40th Anniversary Tribute To Morgan Fisher's First Collection Of Tiny Masterpieces.

And The Mexican Jumping Beans
Packaged in a Digipak with a 12-panel insert. Following a trip to Mexico City, Paul Panhuysen returned to Eindhoven with 200 jumping beans - those curious larvae-inhabited seed pods sold as toys in local markets. At Het Apollohuis, he began a series of experiments that would result in this remarkable recording. Panhuysen's practice has long incorporated living creatures alongside electronic devices: "I've worked often with animals, with birds, crickets and goats. I also use sensors, timers, sole…
Triple Cool Hang
On Triple Cool Hang, Family Underground turn two decades of haze into a single spool of time, threading freezing‑church jams, Brooklyn collaborations, and after‑hours Copenhagen séances into deep, slow‑burning cuts that hum with tape hiss and lived‑in drone.
Bullfighting on Ice
** Edition of 250 copies, remastered from the original master tapes ** This album is a historical document in several respects: echo of a creative season in its early, vigorous blossoming, it presents groundbreaking music as it was performed and listened to in a moment that now seems very distant, not just chronologically but also in terms of its cultural context. Furthermore, it serves as a testament to the initial opening of the emerging Italian free music scene to Northern European experience…

"Che's interest in the Arabic modes of Mauritanian music has marked our sound quite a bit but I have brought some things, too. The plywood crate I play is a big factor, defining, by its positive qualities (a nice warm 'boom' sound) as well as by its simplicity, what we're likely to do in the percussion realm. Wood/Me…

The Call: For A New Life
* Edition of 300. Spectacular four-panel gatefold cover * Since the early 1980s, the Nexus creature has represented one of the most interesting realities of the Italian jazz scene. Daniele Cavallanti (Aktuala) and Tiziano Tononi (Moon On The Water and D.O.M Alia Orchestra) realize a sensational mix of orchestral praxis and impro-free jazz. The strength lies in the ensemble's variety of timbres, in that precise hybrid of styles reminiscent of the cross-sectional experiences of the 1970s of Zappa,…
