Schattenstimme
The starting point is E. T. A. Hoffmann's The Sandman: a world where perception and reality drift apart, and the question of identity remains unresolved. Recognition, in Hoffmann, is never quite secure. The doppelgänger is less a figure than a condition, the point at which the self can no longer vouch for itself.The first record, Lichtstimme begins in an open, almost weightless sonic world. Something still appears untouched. The music carries a sense of proximity, clarity and trust. But this sen…

Urs Leimgruber, Marilyn Crispell, Joëlle Léandre and Fritz Hauser in their first concert as a quartet, Victoriaville, 15 May 1998: eight improvisations growing from small details into heated four-way exchanges.

Musique d’été
Pierre Mariétan (1935–2025) was a prolific Swiss composer, sound artist, and pioneer in acoustic ecology who spent most of his life working in France. Over his long career, he composed more than 300 instrumental, orchestral, vocal, and electronic pieces. Mariétan studied under avant-garde legends like Pierre Boulez, Karlheinz Stockhausen, and Bernd Alois Zimmermann. In 1966, he founded GERM (Groupe d’Étude et de Réalisation Musicales), a music collective that blurred the lines between strict com…
KKAARREENNIINNAA
On KKKAAARRREEENNNIIINNNAAA, Charlemagne Palestine, Oren Ambarchi and Daniel O’Sullivan turn a 1997 “magic song” for a beloved dog’s spirit into a towering trio ritual. Organ drones, phase‑drifting cassette voices, Leslie‑swirled guitar and viola blooms coil around Palestine’s keening live chant, forming a single, dense, ecstatic invocation that feels like a séance conducted inside a vibrating cathedral.
The Early Quintet
Corbett vs. Dempsey is pleased to present The Early Quintet, featuring trumpeter Manfred Schoof's highly influential mid-sixties sextet (and occasional septet), featuring pianist Alexander Schlippenbach, tenor saxophonist Gerd Dudek, bassist Buschi Niebergall, and drummer Jaki Liebezeit. (One track adds drummer Sven-Åke Johansson.) In addition to the first CD release of the 1978 FMP record, this version includes a bonus piece, never before heard. Deep cuts from the formative moment of European f…
The Loa Of Music + Urban And Tribal Portraits
Special Bundle: Roberto Musci's The Loa Of Music (2LP, silver vinyl) and Roberto Musci & Giovanni Venosta's Urban And Tribal Portraits (LP, clear vinyl), both from Soave in new limited pressings of 200 copies each.
Outside Italy, Roberto Musci's name circulated for decades among a small number of collectors and almost no one else. That changed in 2016, when Music From Memory issued Tower Of Silence, a double LP gathering three decades of his work: hunting horns, gongs and strings brought back fr…

Zeena Parkins' 1992 album recorded in New York: electric harp, keyboards and tape with Ikue Mori on drums, Chris Cochrane on guitar, David Shea, and her sisters Margaret and Sara on cello, violin and voice.
Electric Weasel Ensemble
Tip! Shifting continuously between minimalistic patterns, intricate soundscapes, and evolving textures of overlapping electronic sonorities, The Electric Weasel Ensemble presents a missing link in the history of electronic music. It is a series of previously unreleased live recordings from a little-known but trailblazingensemble of improvisers—equipped with a unique embrace of invented instruments and distinctly 1970s avant-garde sensibilities. This historic music is available on both double LP …
Nous Autres

Σ [sigma]
'Σ [sigma]' is the new album by composer, saxophone player and improviser Antonio Raia. The first chapter of a trilogy dedicated to Berlin — where Raia spent several weeks recording alongside producer Francesco Donadello in different locations — 'Σ [sigma]' reflects on the relationship between body, space and sound, understood as a performative gesture closely linked to the space that hosts it.
Recorded inside the Wasserturm in Prenzlauer Berg—the oldest water tower in Berlin, built in 1877—'Σ …
Opening
Klara Lewis’ distinctive talent for disfiguring sound into forms that remain recognisably song-like reaches a new peak here. Her new album Opening is a deceptive recording with veiled melodies and clandestine bangers. Lewis, creator of worlds, treats music as a mirror that reflects a perspective misaligned with the real image. Her music moves in unusual and often startling ways. Acoustic instruments such as ukulele and piano are subjected to processes of deconstruction and reconstruction, their …

The Fall live in Auckland, August 1982, recorded by Chris Knox for Flying Nun: Marc Riley's last tour, two drummers, feedback-drenched rarities and Hex Enduction-era favourites. First vinyl reissue, with poster and notes by Roy Montgomery.
