Satumainen Avaruus
**60 copies** Muuton Koto is a collaboration work of Finnish musicians Veli-Matti Ikävalko (Kutomo, Tulasi) and Jani Hirvonen (Uton). The recordings of this album started already in 2010, but it took almost ten years before it was fully finished (but there was also many years when "nothing" really happened). It was recorded andmixed partially in Chantepie (France), Brisbane (Australia), Kotka, Helsinki and Turku (Finland). Muuton Koto's music is a colourful psychedelic folk; with a mix of sweet …
Taurus
**75 copies** Rabid trio blasting out some smash and grab free muzak voodoo with deformed, blown-out grooves and brooding, midnight atmospheres that give you the same high-torque hairdryer treatment as you would get sat in the front row at a Cairo Free Jazz Ensemble gig or listening to a Vermonster LP full blast in a shipping container. Unsettling as it is invigorating, layers upon layers of elastic electronics and graceful keys lurking around - spectators to the reoccurring elephant seal deathm…
Grey Orders, Distant Trails
**250 copies** Improvised soundtrack to a non-existent Western, recorded in the late '90s by James Kirk, Nathan Thompson and Tim Cornelius. "Deep South kitchen-sink explorers have been circling the drain in counterclockwise fashion for at least half my life and yet I am still reduced to shameless gobsmackery in the presence of this sterling new collection of historic treasures. Committed live-to-tape in the comfy climes of a living room / recording studio / temple affectionately known as 'Canong…
The Eightness of Adam Qadmon
**300 copies** Originally released on cassette by Corpus Hermeticum in 1994. All sounds by Alastair Galbraith and Bruce Russell. "New Zealand is on summer holidays all through the month of January. For some reason I had the house to myself, the wife and kids were elsewhere. Alastair Galbraith brought over some instruments and we plugged in a cassette recorder. We spent the sunny afternoon setting up combinations of instruments and seeing what happened. We had recorded the Concord LP the year bef…
Neptunalia
**300 copies** Neptunalia, a festival of Neptune, celebrated at Rome, of which very little is known. The day on which it was held, was probably the 23rd of July. The festival was celebrated with games. In respect to the ceremonies of this festival nothing is known, except that the people used to build huts of branches and foliage, in which they probably feasted, drank, and amused themselves. Includes tracks by David Edren, H. Takahashi, Nuslux, Olli Aarni, Ilpo Numminen, Nonlocal Society, Kuupuu…
Natural Screenery
**99 copies** Black Trumpets are Alex Reed and Keijo Virtanen from Jyväskylä, Finland. Alex is best known for his work with Jukka Nousiainen and Mikko Siltanen in Räjäyttäjät. Meanwhile Keijo’s long career has seen him roam freely in the outer reaches of the musical galaxy with bands such as Rambling Boys, Vapaa and ever-changing constellations of artists, such as Pekka Airaksinen – one of the most important pioneers of experimental and electronic music in Finland. Black Trumpets is a change for…
Already You If Beyond Flying
**60 copies** Based in Jyväskylä, Finland, Keijo Virtanen is somewhat of a legend in the whole finnish psych scene (on the same level as Pekka Airaksinen - in fact the two have collaborated before). He’s been working on music for ages but his work has only been starting to get attention during the last few years. This artist’s music is unlike any other, it is often based in ambient and drone and incorporates weird traditional folk instruments from around the world just as much as electronic inst…
Poésie Surnaturelle
**100 copies** Indalaska is a project set up by the brothers Frédéric and Olivier Charlot. They are also active with the ritual project Maninkari and the IDM-inspired Sphyxion. Poésie Surnaturelle is the debut work from their newest project, which is available as a very limited cassette. An ambient voyage throughout experimental and mainly minimalistic sound fields.
El origen del pensamiento mágico
**75 copies** Italy and Argentina blend together in slow motion and atonality: the collaboration of Italian music explorer Devid Ciampalini and Argentinan free sonic experimentalist Pablo Picco have a voice and a path of their own: dense layers of analog synths erupt from every layer beneath the ground, field recordings of explosive apparatus, and smokey transmissions of percussion, strings and voices find their way to the cliff of human voices which appear to be broadcasted from inside a giant …
Rakuuna
**75 copies** Varropas is a Finnish duo that features Jusso Paaro and Samuli Kytö, playing guitar and synthesizers to create amiable 'cosmic' music. The Rakuuna tape offers two side-long meanders through a very benign and sunlit universe; watery half-melodies, soft-focus guitar tones, synth lines extending as far into infinity as they can manage. Pleasant and oddly compelling in a low-key way.
Whenever
**75 copies** A free improvised music duo recorded on February 28, 2018, at Flimflam night in Ryan’s Bar, London. Alan Wilkinson: bass clarinet, tenor saxophone - Tasos Stamou: diy synths, Korg Volca FM, digital horn.
Alien Paradigm
**25 copies** Psychedelic sounds and parellel universes and dimensions. Mixed in a futuristic washing machine (from Egypt), later sundried, and then cooked in a spring water with olive oil, Buddha's tears, goethite pieces and rainbow colours. Originally released by Magma Tones in 2017, this cassette version contains one bonus track. Recorded in Turku, Finland. Music and sleeve art by Jani Hirvonen.
Syncopated Soundmirror
**75 copies** "Concrete" sounds and sequences recorded with delay / looper pedals, then built around more layers / details mostly with cassette loops and sampler. The aim was to create the space which is quite simple and elemental but dense, intensive and organic. Some may found reference points to Zoviet France, Nocturnal Emissions and other early '80s industrial bands. All sounds by Stuart Chalmers and Edward Sol, spring 2018. "Many of the artists covered by Vital Weekly know each other and ma…
Echoes In The Wonderland
As the album title could say, this is a way to the "wonderland" (also called as "the other side" - many names have been used during the history of humankind), which shouldn't be mixed with the adventure's of the famous Alice - though it might give some idea about what is going to happen, but that's just the start of it all - the start of nothing else but listener's mind. What are the "echoes" then? They are something which is coming from beyond to here where we stay - so the album is a link betw…
Fauna
Finally restocked: Tsembla's outstanding faux-gamelan and homemade ethnodelic fantasies from Finland’s Ikuisuus label "The cicadas rub their legs, singing as if sucking on inhalators, when past the great willows I see a dam resting deep in the shelter of the trees. The shadow of the dam, a dark cloak glowing green, spreads over the branches of the trees and far across the grass, transforming the yard beyond the road’s edge into an odd province ruled by frogs and mosquitoes that gradually slides …
Mineral Kingdom
The Parels is a duo of Jim Goodall and Eddie Ruscha from L.A. This LP is their second release after their self titled tape on Lal Lal Lal. Inside the grooves of this record they continue their strange exotica mission through the jungle and towards the mysterious grottos of the Mineral Kingdom. The trip is listened through a kaleidoscope: Small details and miniature symphonies change places and blend together, enchanting scenes morph into others. Limited edition of 300. Co-release with Ikuisuus.
