All That I Am
A strange and beautiful artifact of late‑70s outsider music returns: Kit Ream’s lone 1978 album, All That I Am, has been reissued on vinyl and digital formats. Once a private-press secret treasured by psych‑folk collectors, this ultra‑rare record is now available again for listeners drawn to music that sits defiantly outside conventional boundaries.
Weirdos, or so they said. A long‑term psychological state. All That I Am grew from that condition — music shaped by solitude, introspection and an u…
Bulayo (Guitar Songs From Tanzania, Kenya, Zambia, And DR Congo)
African acoustic guitar masterpieces, expanding on Mississippi’s beloved “African Guitar Box.” In 1979 and 1980, a young British-Kenyan musician named John Low hit the road to learn finger-style guitar from his heroes. He traveled across Kenya, Tanzania, Congo, and Zambia, visiting, and sometimes staying in the homes of, stars like Jean-Bosco Mwenda, Losta Abelo, and Emmanuel Mulemena. He also documented brilliant but previously under-recorded artists like Tanzania’s Francis Kitime and Kenya’s M…

Last copies, sold out at source * Edition of 300 copies. High thickness cardboard with opaque laminated cover. Comes with a printed insert. * Founded in 1969 by the pianist Ole Mathiessen, the bassist Henrik Hove, the saxophonist Jesper Nehammer, and drummer Jon Finsen, Tordenskjolds Soldater was one of the great - albeit short-lived - projects in Copenhagen’s thriving scene of free improvisation and jazz of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Across the proceeding decade or so, Denmark had provided…
In The Kingdom of Dub
*2026 repress* Hopeton Brown, better known as Scientist, has been a pioneering figure in the world of dub for 40 years. His early love of electronics proved fruitful when (still a teenager) he was hired at King Tubby's studio in Kingston. Brown quickly ascended the ranks and became heir to Tubby's throne, producing imaginative and technically impressive mixes that solidified his forward-looking nickname. Originally released in 1981, In The Kingdom Of Dub remains one of the best early LPs in Scie…
Kyoto 1970
Edition of 400. Wired was an ephemeral improvisational music project formed by Michael Ranta, Karl-Heinz Böttner, and Mike Lewis. On 28 April 1970, the trio recorded an extended studio session of approximately 140 minutes, in collaboration with Conny Plank, who engineered and mixed the recording in real time, incorporating elements of live electronics. This session was subsequently edited to album length and released in 1974 as part of the Free Improvisation 3LP box set issued by Deutsche Grammo…
50 Ans d'Acousmatique

This lavish 15-CD box set on INA-GRM gathers fifty works composed across half a century - from 1963 to 2012 - into a single, staggering document. Sixteen hours of acousmatic creation, 228 tracks, accompanied by a 160-page illustrated booklet with a 2012 interview by Thomas Baumgartner, an annotated catalog of works by Régis Renouard Larivière, and photographs spanning the full arc of …
Black & Beautiful / Soul & Madness
Originally released in New York in 1968 on Baraka's own Jihad label, "Black and Beautiful Soule and madness" is a fiery document of the 1960s. It could be mistaken for a lost ESP-Disk release, sitting well between Sun Ra / the Fugs/ and Albert Ayler. The group was vocal in all the ways; sometimes singing, Doo-wop & Soul, sometimes rapping in a Last Poets-style, often doing both at the same time. Emotionally compelling and extremely powerful,we are proud to have it back in print on vinyl for the …
Artefact
First album under the Codespira1 alias by Stockholm-based composer Mattias Petersson, trained in electroacoustic composition at the Royal College of Music. The project began as a vehicle for one-take electronic performances built around SuperCollider patches and a modular system, here extended into longer structures. Artefact unfolds as an articulated drone modelling the subconscious cycle of memory and resonance: a continuous tonal field where small events trigger gradual reconfigurations.
The Sprawl
Distorted Nude is Glenn Dick's new project after Find Hope In Darkness, marking a decisive shift from a wholly computer-based practice to one centred on electric guitar. The Sprawl is a single composed track built from improvised sessions with guitar, effect pedals and laptop, drawing on the Belgian underground's long tradition of droning post-rock. The piece flows between dark melancholic drone and more transcendental zones, holding the listener through patient, slow-burning architecture.
Music Frees Our Souls Vol. 1
*2024 stock* Before any instrumentation, Francisco Mela addresses his fellow musicians, pianist Matthew Shipp and bassist William Parker, with a sense of anticipation and affirmation, “Okay guys, ready? Rolling!” The sense of camaraderie and his artist-focused approach is heard throughout the album’s majestic improvisation—as well as in its inspiration, dedicated to Mela’s longtime musical partner, the legendary jazz musician McCoy Tyner. Tyner was well-known for his boundless musical talent, an…

Cool Jojo was recorded from 3 to 5 December 1979 at Epicurus Studio in Tokyo under the direction of guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi. The album features the band ‘Second Concept,’ combining electric guitar, saxophone, keyboards, bass, and drums. The programme consists mainly of original compositions reflecting the band's electric jazz and experimental orientation in the late 1970s.
On Dark Silent Off
*2026 stock* Radian creates a field of tension between extreme dynamics, freely improvised parts and meticulous construction, an inherent contrast between soft sounds and sharp edits. Radian’s recording/creative process takes a central role in shaping the pieces. It is a two-fold process of creating material through improvisation, sound experiments and processing on the one hand, and a routine of carefully selecting and editing this material on the other. It is often the case that mere snippets …
Interview with a Cat
On Interview with a Cat, Marcel Broodthaers turns a deadpan Q&A with a meowing interlocutor into a razor‑sharp miniature of conceptual art: a five‑minute 1970 audio piece where questions about painting, markets and museums collapse into one insistent “miaow.”
Trans Canada Highway
Tip! *2024 stock* Quality control has never been much of a problem for Boards of Canada. The duo has magnified its legacy at least partly by indulging in generous spells of inactivity. The infrequency of BoC's output has not only fed into the mythos of their carefully cultivated brand, it's also engendered a level of trust that's served as a consolatory point of pride for fans who've felt shut out by the duo's otherwise total remove from the peripheral obligations (live shows, videos, interviews…
