Sculptures From Under the City Ice
Tip! “Sculptures From Under the City Ice is a sort of longing, I think,” Christian Winther says of his third full-length solo record. This statement is cryptic but somehow poignant, poetic, and also a little weird. And so is Sculptures From Under the City Ice. Winther is a highly sought after guitarist and tireless collaborator in the Norwegian avant garde scene. His previous solo release was awarded album of the year by Klassekampen in Norway. He has toured extensively throughout Europe, Japan,…

Richard Wilson Avena
*300 copies limited edition* We’ve found the son of Daniel Johnston and Robert Wyatt, and he works at a call center in San Antonio, Texas. His name is Richard Wilson Avena. Slowly approaching his fifties, he is a voracious fan of sixties pop music, composing and playing since the age of 13. A chronic depressive, music and family are 'what have kept him alive all these years.' He takes care of his elderly father daily, a former writer and activist for Mexican civil rights. Armed with only his 8-t…
Phase Murmur
Over top of Gillespie's nimble, pointillist drumming (he also plays piano and harpsichord), Hunerberg employs flute, organ, bass and balloon (that's not a saxophone on "Cucumber"). The disorienting opener "Cro Magnon/Two" recalls Kraftwerk precursor the Organisation, or contemporaries like Faust. There's a strange, disconsolate atmosphere to the proceedings, almost as if the air had been sucked out of a recording session booked for some avant-garde jazz heavies. Instead of Impulse, Phase Murmur …

Crazy 7" by NYC's freaks Peeesseye! On Evolving Ear.

Fighting False God
Of Tanz Victims formed in the early 80s when industrial music was taking off in parts of North America. What started things off for OTV was a 7″ vinyl of gritty, looped and guitar-laden industrial that felt fresh and alive, with the name Fighting False God. On the 30 year anniversary of its first issue, Artoffact Records will release a remastered and redesigned edition of this Canadian classic.

Packaging designed by Andrea Scarfone of Julie's Haircut. Diecut and numbered covers individually hand silk screened. Full color silkscreened inserts and die-cut white card inner sleeves.
Certain Materials
Debut release from this Australian modern primitive duo. With lyrics cut from dated astronomy texts & ping pong vocal rounds soaked in reverb, Primitive Motion create their own brand of spontaneous, steam-powered electronic pop. Their moves recall Joe Jones’ readymades, Joe Meek's I Hear a New World & the minimalism of The Door and Window, as preset keyboard, voices and cosmic flute intersect with machine / human beat systems across the four songs on Certain Materials. Primitive Motion is Leight…
Visions Of The Valley
The two songs on Visions of the Valley find Pigeons pushing further into tripped-out pop songwriting, narrowly clinging to their inner art-rock / Majora leanings. “The Postcard” is a taut exercise in dusty, westcoast flowery psych pop. With traces of Mike Nesmith and The Rain Parade, it’s the most straightforward tune they've yet issued. On the flip, “Sunset Park”, the duo stretch things out with a brilliant slice of placid, melancholy mysticism. Both songs were recorded by Clark and Wednesday i…

Dadamerica
*Limited edition of 100 copies.* BIN represses a 7” by Kain originally released in Denmark in 1985. It's doing Raw House with a punk-ish sound texture. (Or maybe it was Raw in the first place back then...). Limited to 100 copies.
Lava Love
Recorded during a residency in Tenerife powered by Keroxen Festival and Discrepant back in 2020 - amidst the pandemic, no less -, the duo of Carlos Godinho and Mestre André return after their 'Mãe D'Água' debut on Sucata Tapes and an entry on Keroxen's Aquapelago Series through a split with tropical druids Lagoss. Mostly captured in performance through a quadraphonic system placed inside a huge disused fuel tank, with a few tracks recorded out in the open throughout the island, 'Lava Love' evoke…
Unremembered
*2024 stock* A meditation on memory, innocence, and the haunted grandeur of the natural world, Unremembered recalls strange and beautiful happenings experienced during a childhood in rural Massachusetts: a houseguest takes sudden leave in the middle of the night; a boy makes a shocking discovery on a riverbank; a girl disappears in woods behind a ranging farm; ghosts appear with messages for the living. Through Bellows's moving words and images and Snider's vivid, fraught, astonishing score, the…
The Flower School
*CD Version* Since exploding on the improvised music scene a couple of years ago Tennessee native Zoh Amba has found herself engaging with an ever-widening group of collaborators as she tours across the US and Europe. She's forged some enduring partnerships, working regularly with drummer Chris Corsano, bassist Thomas Morgan, and pianist Micah Thomas, among others, but one of the deep pleasures of improvised music is when a first-time meeting produces sparks. Indeed, that's certainly the case wi…
