Floral Shoppe
*2022 stock.* "[...] By no conventional logic should Floral Shoppe have made it beyond the deep-internet realms it emerged from. But like candy-colored mold, its power has rapidly spread while its then-teenage creator Ramona Xavier, the Portland artist now known as Vektroid, has remained an elusive figure, simultaneously a pioneer and an outlier. Her album remains one-of-a-kind in its depiction of anxiety and crisis rendered through waves of numbness that range from deeply unsettling to artifici…

A Selection Of Improvisations 1989-2017
Telesoniek Atelier is the nom d’artiste of Dutch audiovisual explorer and electronic music sorcerer Hans Kulk, who’s been steadily carving a name for himself in Dutch art circles while constantly shining a light on the electronic music pioneers that came before him. ‘A Selection of Improvisations’ brings together some of his work of the last quarter of a century, veering back and forth between avantgarde classical music (the post-Bachian opener ‘Chateauroux’, ‘Oberheim Impro’), thoughtful minima…

Revival
This is a big one. Privately issued in 1979, Al Basim’s sole LP Revival, is one of the most sought after artifacts released at the end of the psychedelic era. Original copies are impossibly rare, and command astonishing prices. Recorded shortly after Al Basim immigrated to the United States from Iraq, the album is a stunning blend of jazz, prog, new age, and the sounds and structures of the Middle East - an image of a broader musical culture which existed in the region before political realities…
Ophelia
Three years after their Rock-Opera Odyssea, “an incredibly cinematic and charged post-rock experience” (The CD Critic) and “a success from start to finish” (A Closer Listen), indignu [lat.] is back with a new album. Ophelia, the latest sonic journey was privately released by the band in late October 2016 on vinyl. Indignu [lat.], recently referred to as “the apotheosis of Portuguese post-rock” (Post-Rock Essentials) has been roaming their country for 10 years now, but also venturing outside Lu…
End-Music
In the follow-up to The Reoccurrence (2015), Arek Gulbenkoglu presents End-music: a series of insular sonic imprints via use of tape detritus, voice and abused electronics. End-music continues Gulbenkoglu’s fascination with sound at its most elemental level and comprises three sculptural pieces in which textures are examined from different angles, and threads are pulled bare. This is a transparent and tactile music that accumulates, shifts and contorts.

I
Stunning debut tape from this new italian band, Astral Brew, which comprises Riccardo Mazza from Lettera 22. The sound is akin to experimental prog and jazz rock and the seven songs on “I” are the perfect example of the qualities of this classic power trio made of electric guitar, bass and drums (and alto sax).
Fingerpainting
Fingerpainting is the first solo release of Greek percussionist and electronic music composer Christos Chrondropoulos. The main source of inspiration for this one sided, 45 rpm, solo percussion album are the documental recordings of musicological record labels such as Smithsonian Folkways, Tangent and Ocora.
Following the short recording time format that is encountered commonly in these releases, Fingerpainting gives the impression that it's a recording of an unknown music culture that operates …

Chamber Music 3
Composer Ladislav Kubík was born and educated in Prague. In 1991 he began teaching at Florida State University, and the performers on this CD are drawn from the FSU community. The pieces collected here were written in the first years of the twenty-first century and include instrumental music and Songs of Zhivago, a substantial song cycle for tenor and piano. The cycle consists of six of Pasternak's poems in English translation. Kubík's atonal harmonic language tends toward academic grayness (a p…
Klangbogen
Vol. 2, refers to his music as "small music" utilizing collage, abstract environmental sound acoustics, and a flair for beautiful, subtle, shifting layers of sound. Klangbogen (Small Music Vol. 2) features a crinkled array of pulsing, chirping environmentally-tinged sound -- gravitating somewhere near the vortex where the Het Apollohuis artists, Selektion crew and Bill Fontana never quite meet

The Great Learning
The Great Learning plays on the title of the influential score of the same name by the radical 60's composer and musician Cornelius Cardew, who brought music and visual art closely together in this work. The Great Learning [1969–1970] owe their visual eloquence to his practice as a graphic artist, and his improvisational and group work was made with an awareness and connection to Flux art. Facsimile of manuscript, size 420x263mm, 23 pages
