For many bands, having all their gear stolen would be catastrophic. For Third Ear Band, this unfortunate 1968 incident opened a portal to beneficial change that would ultimately define one of British experimental music's most singular statements. Now, Antarctica Starts Here presents the first-time vinyl reissue of the group's self-titled 1970 sophomore album - often called Elements due to its elemental track titles - complete with new liner notes by Dave Segal that illuminate this remarkable cha…
VERY LAST COPIES - Gold Vinyl, edition of 100. We are pleased to announce the upcoming reissue of “Min Bul”, a milestone of Norwegian rock and jazz, included in the renowned Nurse With Wound list, from the band whose leader was a young Terje Rypdal.

Purge.xxx unveils hidden gems of Dutch experimental cinema with the first ever release of Lodewijk de Boer & Martijn Hasebos' synthesiser soundtracks that have remained hidden in the vaults for over four decades. The centerpiece of this historic release is the collaborative score between Lodewijk de Boer (longtime collaborator of avant-garde filmmaker Frans Zwartjes) and Martijn Hasebos for Marleen Gorris' explosive 1982 debut film “A Question of Silence”, alongside de Boer's solo score for Gorr…
If "Cathedral" is one of Nigel Ayers' most celestially minded records, then "Invocation of the Beast Gods" is among his most ritualistic. We start at full throttle with suffocating tension before giving way to an uneasy release. "Tranquil" this is not, but Ayers' delicate touch allows him to explore the full breadth of the album title's implications — here you will find moments of whimsy, contemplation, and full-bore reckoning. No Holiday is pleased to offer "Invocation of the Beast Gods" alongs…
*80 copies limited edition* Marion Cousin and Eloïse Decazes are musicians, singers and friends. For some fifteen years, each of them, in their various incarnations (Catalina Matorral / Arlt) and companionships (notably Gaspar Claus, Kaumwald, Borja Flames for one, Eric Chenaux, Delphine Dora, Julien Desailly for the other), has been struggling with their own means, their own temperament, to move forward together, albeit crab-like, the chanson d'auteur and the chanson sans auteur - which is cont…
Winter Family is a duo made up of Ruth Rosenthal and Xavier Klaine. They met in Jaffa, Israel in 2004. Their self-titled debut (Sub Rosa, 2007) offered minimal music played by Xavier on pipe organ, harmoniums and piano backing strict spoken-word texts chanted by Ruth. Their second album, Red Sugar (Sub Rosa, 2011) was highly praised by critics (The Village Voice, Liberation, Haaretz, Pitchfork). Winter Family then composed soundtracks for dance shows, films and advertising (Chanel, EU). They col…
John Also Bennett’s Ston Elaióna forms an elegantly rigorous world of electroacoustic sonority, bridging the expanse of time with the immediacies of environment and happening in the here and now: a profound sonic mediation on the countless dimensions unlocked by life in Greece.
* 300 copies, deluxe edition with two booklets, perfect replica of the original. * Joining their rapidly growing catalog of radical gestures of creative sound, Holidays Records returns with one of their most important releases to date, the first ever vinyl reissue of Pygmy Unit’s “Signals From Earth”, a towering private press obscurity, originally released by the band in 1974.

Huge Tip! *300 copies limited edition* With Chênes, Roxane Métayer invites us into a world where the boundaries between the natural and the imagined dissolve, and every song becomes a living tableau. Composed over two to three years, the album gathers a suite of narrative pieces—each a vivid snapshot of life among forests, city corners, and mountain paths, but always told through the voices of animals and plants. Here, insects, amphibians, birds, and mammals are not just subjects but protagonist…
BeJazz is happy to come up with a limited edition (500 copies) of a true “holy” modern/free jazz gems of the late 1960s. The original double LP was issued by Meno Liechtenstein’s CB Records – he was also the organizer of the “International Holy Hill Jazz Meeting” in Heidelberg/Germany. The sound quality on the original album was not really bad – but it certainly was not really good as well. We spent a lot of work on a proper restoration of the live tapes. The result is truly amazing – after almo…
Live recording at the Rotonda del Pellegrini, Milan, January 21st, 1959 featuring John Cage, Morton Feldman, Juan Hidalgo, Leopoldo La Rosa, and Walter Marchetti. Among all the events involving John Cage during the long stay in Europe that followed his controversial appearance at Darmstadt Ferienkurse in September 1958, the concert he held in Milan on January 21st perhaps represents a less well known episode.
Featuring Cage's intervention both as composer and performer of one's own work as well …

After a three-year hiatus from releasing new music, Błoto knew they had to make up for the long wait with a flood of fresh material. Their fruitful recording sessions at Studio Pasterka produced a wave of new tracks—like mushrooms springing up after the rain. These sessions have already brought us two 7" singles, the Grzybnia LP, and now, rounding off this chapter, comes the final piece: the album Grzyby (eng. Mushrooms).

*The CD re-release includes the 33-minute bonus track "C'est Pas La Meme Chose" as well as a 16-page booklet.* "Picture Music" is Klaus Schulze's fourth studio album. It contains two tracks, "Totem" and "Mental Door", which were recorded towards the end of 1974. The LP was released in January 1975 on the legendary Brain label.
