Zartir
The third album from Levon Eskenian’s remarkable ensemble is its most adventurous to date. As well as reclaiming the music of esoteric teacher G. I. Gurdjieff for folk instrumentation, Zartir situates Gurdjieff in a tradition of Armenian bards and troubadours including Ashugh Jivani, Baghdasar Tbir and the legendary Sayat-Nova. In parallel, an emphasis on pieces for sacred dance reaches its apex in The Great Prayer, an entrancing collaboration between the Gurdjieff Ensemble and the National Cham…
Songs From The B. F. White Sacred Harp
"The Wiregrass Singers' Dewey Williams began learning the shape-note tradition in his childhood. He studied under Judge Jackson, who authored the landmark 1934 hymnbook The Colored Sacred Harp. In 1971, Williams formally organized The Wiregrass Sacred Harp Singers to preserve the music full-time. This unified troupe began touring nationally and leading workshops, which ultimately launched them onto stages at the Smithsonian and Newport folk festivals up until Williams' passing in 1995 when the g…
Celestial Ocean
*2026 repress* 1973s brilliant Celestial Ocean, by the legendary Swiss krautrock band Brainticket, is a concept album that details an ancient pharoahs journey into the afterlife (substitute the word "journey" for "trip" and youll get what they were driving at). However, Brainticket were not mere products of their time, they explored some truly compelling musical territory and produced a superlative blanket of sound-featuring a pioneering mix of early synthesizers, flute, zither, sitar, and male …
Gila
*Edition with 20 pages booklet and poster* 'Often referred by the title Free Electric Sound, Gila's debut is an amazing work, full of acid guitar freakouts, spacy organ and mellotron, exotic rhythm structures, and loads of electronic effects to fully realize the psychedelic visions. From the Floyd-ian space rock of the first two tracks the record moves into even stranger realms on the four segued pieces that make up the second side of the original vinyl. "Kollaps" starts off with ritualistic dru…
The Thing = ザ・シング
Limited vinyl reissue of the 1978 direct-to-disc classic. Isao Suzuki on piccolo bass with Ron Carter, Hank Jones, Roy Haynes, and strings arranged by Masahiko Satoh. A summit of Japanese and American jazz from Tokyo's golden age of audiophile recording, with obi and liner notes.
The Black Record
Necessary reissue of a truly seminal, minimalist totem and founding document of the avant-garde underground!
Intelligent Life (Book)
The life and work of Maryanne Amacher are as vast as they are as yet unknown. A heterodox and idiosyncratic selection of largely unpublished documents spanning the bandwidth of the still unprocessed contents of the Amacher archive.
Cuspa Llullu
Second collaboration between Anla Courtis and Daniel Menche, recorded across Portland and Buenos Aires. Two side-long pieces traverse a kaleidoscopic sound labyrinth: Side A moves through metallic, multi-layered corridors in constant mutation, Side B opens outdoors and gradually visits a sequence of interior regions toward a final climax. The sound material is treated as living, vibrating matter rather than inert sample, a study in frequency-as-organism on the drone-noise threshold.
Go On
Go On with the George Otsuka 5 was recorded in 1972 in Japan for the Three Blind Mice label. The album features a quintet led by drummer George Otsuka, a major figure in Japanese jazz in the 1960s and 1970s. The repertoire includes original compositions as well as contemporary hard bop standards.
Tuscany
*2026 Repress* Los Angeles based pianist, producer, and songwriter John Carroll Kirby traveled to Pietrasanta, Italy in the summer of 2018 on a self-imposed writing trip. During his stay he composed Tuscany, a two side-long solo piano exploration of this particular geographical envelope, a place where nature is shaped into form. Kirby would cycle 12 kilometers each day to Cascata di Malbacco, a waterfall with jade pools and silver stone, and the inspiration for Side A of Tuscany. His own Cascata…
When I sing, I slip into the microphone. Into that void, I bring comrade "prayers", then, turning to face the outside, together we explode
Like on the early solo Haino album that shares the group’s name (released on P.S.F. in 1993), the instrumentation swims in reverb (the use of which Akiyama recalls as ‘a kind of point of the band’), often obscuring the instrumental sources. On the short opening piece, a distant reed instrument arcs long buzzing melodies over a bed of cymbals and gongs, like a psychedelic take on Tibetan music. The epic second part, occupying almost 50 minutes, begins as a splayed, near-formless cloud of electric…
Chapter Two: Caverns of Crystal
*2026 stock. 250 copies limited edition* "Mystic Towers, and all related projects from Adam Kalmbach represent an important time for dungeon synth, one where we didn't really know what was going on and amazing records would come out of nowhere - it wouldn't be until much later when we were able to connect the pieces. Mystic Towers, Erdstall and Abandoned Places were all great projects but it would take time to emerge that these were not only created by the same individual, but all dedicated to t…
Die Dritte Ebene
On Die Dritte Ebene, Emilio Gordoa and Sven‑Åke Johansson let vibraphone, drums and accordion run in seemingly parallel lines until a mysterious “third layer” appears - a ghost‑music of overtones, pulse and texture that neither player could summon alone.
Point Of Eruption
German progressive with symphonic touch featuring Mellotron and flute, good keyboard playing and a fine guitar. Three of the six tracks are instrumentals. Dag Erik Asbjornsen lists the Troya LP in his book "Cosmic Dreams at Play" among the ten best Krautrock LPs of all time. The original album sells for 1000 € in mint condition. With 8-page booklet in LP size.
Retiro Espiritual
Following the release of Ganzfeld, the Tenerife-based octet returns with Retiro Espiritual, their fourth full-length album and the second chapter in an ongoing improvisational document recorded inside one of Santa Cruz de Tenerife’s abandoned oil tanks.
Gaf & The Love Supreme Arkestra work outside conventional studio frameworks. Their music emerges from extended improvisation sessions that unfold sporadically, sometimes over several days. Built around drums, guitar, bass, modular synthesis and s…
Behold And See
It was legendary record producer Alan Lorber that came up with the concept of "The Bosstown Sound" -- "The Sound Heard 'Round The World" to market and promote the best and brightest of the Bean Town sixties psychedelic scene. (Boston's key groups at the time included Orpheus, Beacon Street Union, Ultimate Spinach, Chamaeleon Church and others). The Ultimate Spinach, arguably the finest of them all, produced magnificent examples of surreal psychedelic record-making, now prized by crate-diggers an…
Pepper Man
This 2013 debut album by South Korean bassist and composer Kim Sung-Bae is a remarkable masterpiece. Anchored by a two-horn quintet, the music blends Eastern and Middle Eastern modes with spiritual jazz, weaving a soundscape that is deeply emotional, beautiful, and profoundly moving. The overarching narrative carries an epic, cinematic scale that commands repeat listens. From the sublimely beautiful, oriental-tinged piano trio masterpiece ‘Eastern Restaurant’ to the spellbinding Middle Eastern m…
Forza G
Mariachi parodies, experimental jazz, lounge cues for party scenes, and a main theme that returns in five different versions. Composed in 1972 for Duccio Tessari's aviation comedy, the score to Forza "G" is one of the least visited corners of Ennio Morricone's busiest year, and now arrives on vinyl for the first time, as part of Cinevox's new Hidden Gems series.
March
Matching Mole was the band that drummer/vocalist Robert Wyatt formed after he left the pioneering UK outfit Soft Machine in July, 1971. Over the course of its brief, one-year existence, Matching Mole would develop a characteristic sound, a unique take on fusion, with interesting structures that encouraged individualistic expression through solos. When one of the members came across a forgotten live show on tape -- identified simply as 'March, 1972', they immediately contacted us, and this album …
Actual Earth Music - Volume 1 & 2
