Lagoon
New album by FLOCKS, the duo of drone specialist Werner Durand and percussionist Uli Hohmann. Musical landscapes that move between traditional as well as experimental sounds with influences from Krautrock and Jon Hassell's "fourth world" aesthetics.
Destiada (Banda Sonora Original)
The 1984 soundtrack for dance-theater performance Destiada marked Pep Llopis’ debut score for avant-garde Valencian company Ananda Dansa, and initiated a creative partnership that would continue throughout the ensuing decades.The dance is structured as a lyrical fable about the struggle between life and death as seen through the crimson-tinted lens of the Spanish bullfighting tradition. Llopis and Vicent Alonso, a fellow Spanish composer, instrumentalist, and longtime collaborator, were inspired…
The Litanies of Satan
Diamanda Galas' debut album "Litanies of Satan", originally released in 1982, reissued on the artist's own Intravenal Sound Operations label. The album has been meticulously remastered from the original Y Records analogue tapes and features the original classic artwork.

In Pas(s)ing
On In Pas(s)ing), Mick Goodrick turns understatement into signature, floating a cool, singing tone across an ECM all-star backdrop. John Surman, Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJohnette move with almost invisible precision around his quietly lyrical themes, creating a session where momentum whispers rather than shouts, and melody lingers long after the notes fade.
Digging Central Asia: Musical Archaeology along the Silk Road
Death Is Not The End collaborate with Uzbek label Maqom Soul to deliver an LP counterpart to last year's mixtape of the same title, compiling specially picked & fully licensed individual belters from the ex-soviet studios of Central Asian republics between 1978 and 1989 - incl. Uzbek, Tajik, Kurdish & Uyghur artists pulling traditional folk motifs together with pop & rock and psych elements.
"These recordings do not form a smooth or coherent history. They feel more like a sequence of discoveries…
Reality Is Not a Theory
Reality Is Not a Theory by Mark Fell and Pat Thomas is a vivid collaboration exploring the friction between theorized structure and lived musical experience. By fusing Fell’s technologically limited triggers for creativity with Thomas’s exploratory improvisation, the album reimagines not only electronic and jazz vocabularies but also notions of time and agency, rendering a shifting landscape where each moment is both calculated and unexpected.
Pier & Loft
Self-released on cassette in 1983, Hiroshi Yoshimura’s Pier & Loft is a contemporary ambient holy grail, gaining a cult status decade after decade. On this album he brought his environmental music in different areas. Yoshimura had a class on its own, far removed from standard new age or electronic music being released at the time.
Flora
Tip! Following their 2024 reissue of Hiroshi Yoshimura’s classic album, Surround, Temporal Drift proudly presents the first-ever reissue of Flora, Yoshimura’s underappreciated ambient classic.
Flora was originally recorded and completed in 1987, and remained unreleased until 2006, nearly three years after Yoshimura’s passing in 2003. The album is chronologically and stylistically a follow-up to his acclaimed 1986 works Green and Sorround, wherein Yoshimura continues to play with the ambience of …
Gérard Grisey. Vortex Temporum
The first-ever vinyl release of Gérard Grisey’s Vortex Temporum (to our knowledge). Movements I and II appear as a single track to preserve their spectral continuity. The LP features cover art by Dariia Kuzmych and comes with a zine of her ballpoint drawings, merging time and human tissue.

Snow Crash
Voodoo noise and poetry : what is sound, what is poetry? What is this reality and how are we perceiving it? This LP brings together two extreme and loud vocal performers digging and channeling invisible realities through electronically expanded proto languages. No occult bullshit, this is an experimental non-dual approach to reality: clashes and crashes into extatic trances. Joachim Montessuis develops an experimental contextual practice mainly around voice, drone, noise and resonance since the …
Parallèles
Reissue of a magnificent, impossible-to-categorize French classic originally released on the hopelessly obscure d'Avantage label in 1976. Pretty much the definition of musical anarchy, "Paralleles" begins with an atonal duo for trombones, wends its was through accompanied poetry readings and cornet solos, vamps into a rap delivered by Vince Taylor (France's answer to Eddie Cochran and Bowie's inspiration for Ziggy Stardust!) on 'Rock N Roll Station' (which Nurse With Wound deconstructed later on…
The Sojourner
Tip! *Repress with new obi-strip* Japanese label P-Vine sure know how to pick out the essential spiritual jazz reissues. This is another gold standard that came originally on Strata East in 1974. Vocals feature throughout and often soar to the highest of heights and make it a charismatic album. Sample hounds and hip hop lovers might well recognise the track 'Optimystical' which has been pillaged by Detroit great Andres before now. Elsewhere there is real freeform magic on 'Music Is Nothing But A…
Pale Bloom
Davachi went back to the piano she had left behind as a student, recording at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The first side is a three-part suite in which the piano draws in a Hammond organ and a countertenor voice.
Fliegen Lernen
Faust's vaults, opened by the band itself. Co-founder Gunther Wusthoff curates unheard tapes and fragments, motorik grooves, collage and pure invention from krautrock's great disruptors.
Sorcery
Sorcery is the ninth album for Jim Jupp, aka Belbury Poly. It grew from Jupp’s love of early to mid-80s electronic music and a rediscovery of how that music had soundtracked his childhood love of all things sci-fi and fantasy. It’s moody and melodramatic electronica rendered in bright and evocative 80s sounds. The not quite 80s tunes have Belbury Poly’s trademark earworm melodies and are ever so slightly tongue in cheek. Jupp returns to a simple line up for this album - it's a very electronic so…
Summer Fun - Music for Hotels Vol. 2
The compilation "Return to Acapulco - Music for Hotels Vol. 1", curated by Vittore Baroni and released in the summer of 2024, collected 16 songs created by as many musicians as a soundtrack for the different areas of a typical seaside hotel structure. The second volume of this unique collection that seeks new solutions to combine tourism and culture starts from a different concept, with 20 covers of well-known and lesser-known songs dedicated to summer by 20 Italian musicians and bands (plus a c…
