Patrick Shiroishi returns to his brutal prog roots for an album of 60 saxophone exercises, equally punishing and rewarding. Executed during the plague years and delivered in two halves, one featuring pieces composed strictly with programmed drum accompaniment, the second with additional metal/wood sound sources, Inoue truly stands out in an extensive and captivating discography.
Comes with a 22-page booklet in a two-panel Digipak sleeve. Paul DeMarinis presents a companion work to his acclaimed sound installation The Edison Effect, where ancient phonograph records, wax cylinders, and even holograms of records are played with laser beams instead of needles. This recording explores the archaeology of sound reproduction technologies, creating a dialogue between Edison's mechanical cylinders and contemporary digital audio. In the original installation, one of the most poeti…

Eternally Frozen consists of a series of canon based compositions for brass ensemble, percussion and synthesizer by Andrea Belfi. The canon is an ancient compositional technique in which an initial melody is imitated at a specified time interval by one or more parts, creating illusionary never-ending musical journeys.The work is inspired by the evocative image of the Deprong Mori, a mythological bat with the alleged ability to fly through solid matter by bending atoms by its natural skill of aud…
2025 repress. For five decades, Harold Budd stood on the forefront of the West Coast avant-garde. Born in Los Angeles, he studied with Schoenberg-pupil Gerald Strang and began teaching at CalArts in 1970. While searching for his own voice, he was influenced as much by abstract expressionist painters as by John Cage and Morton Feldman. In his work, Budd brought delicate, slowing-moving melodies to the foreground – creating a new musical language based on “eternally pretty music” and smooth surfac…
Repossessed by the past, bitten once again and forced to relive drama, history, memories, tradition and roots. A past that needs exorcizing, bending and re-imagining in order to move forward and depend on. This is ‘Rimorso’, Mai Mai Mai’s colossal mediterranean gothic album. Known for his incredible blend of Southern Italian Folklore, industrial drone, proto-techno & punishing miasmic electronic music, Toni Cutrone aka Mai Mai Mai approached ‘Rimorso’ with a clean slate. Following ‘Nel Sud’ (La …
Since 2017, Deathstar has been a project about the microphone — in Marina Rosenfeld’s hands, a void, a mirror, an unruly instrument of transformation and mediation. This music is heard in traces, through thickly amplified silences punctuated by momentary eruptions of noise or a voice at the threshold of intelligibility. The sculpture at the center of the action—a plexiglas orb housing a 7-microphone array originally installed as part of an exhibition the artist mounted at Portikus, in Frankfurt …
Kranky announces the reissue of Low Christmas, the beloved 1999 holiday EP from slowcore pioneers Low, available now on vinyl, CD, and digital formats. This timeless collection of subversive seasonal songs—originally released as a limited-edition cassette—captures the Duluth trio's signature minimalist beauty, blending haunting harmonies, sparse instrumentation, and wry takes on Christmas traditions.
Low—comprising Alan Sparhawk, Mimi Parker, and John Nichols—crafted Low Christmas as an antidote…
Five Again is a striking debut from Mi Ya that spans just six tracks but makes a lasting impact. The album was crafted at Space Talk and reflects on childhood not as a stage to abandon, but as a spirit to protect. Its delicate compositions echo fleeting memories, candles that won't blow out, naps of escape, the quiet joy of rain. Mi Ya describes the work as a refusal to let go of the child within, a reminder of innocence that still whispers. Hazy ambient synths and delicate melodies shine on tra…
Includes deluxe 12-page booklet with unpublished photos, lyrics, translations, and liner notes written by NTS radio host Jamal Khadar. Before there was a Zambia, there was Alick Nkhata. Born in Kasama in 1922 to a Tonga father and Bemba mother, Nkhata would become the voice of a nation that did not yet exist - and help sing it into being. Vocalist, guitarist, bandleader, broadcaster, archivist, freedom fighter: he moved between these roles as effortlessly as he moved between lonesome country sli…
Totally trippy Irish psychedelia for the morning after the ‘Summer of Love’. Led by Belfast-born prodigy David Lewis, Andwellas Dreams' debut album Love and Poetry from 1969 blurs the line between Denmark Street and Cyprus Avenue. A 13-song pastoral fever dream that was lost in the CBS warehouse, now remastered and restored to its original splendour.
*2025 stock* Sound recordings from moids, a sound installation project by Kazuki Saita, Hiroko Mugibayashi, and Soichiro Mihara. The release features three versions based on the principle of “one input (a microphone) and one sound-producing mechanism.” Presented in sculptural form, these swarms of devices respond to one another’s sounds like cicadas or frogs in chorus.
Version 1 plays like minimal music: electronic tones answering each other without rhythm. Version 2 evokes the sonic image of in…
