For the Birds
Edition of 250. Deluxe edition + insert. For eighteen months, between 1984 and 1985, Patrick Lysaght played flute, strings, and percussion inside the Rainforest Birdhouse at the Rio Grande Zoo in Albuquerque, New Mexico. His audience and collaborators: 150 birds of 42 species.
The result is one of the earliest and most radical documents of interspecies improvisation. Predating the current wave of sound ecology by decades, For The Birds sits comfortably alongside the biophonic research of Bernie …
Things We Lost In The Fire
On Things We Lost in the Fire, Low stretch slowcore until it glows, binding hushed harmonies, sudden noise and fragile lullabies into one prolonged reckoning with love, faith and mortality. What began as an “anti-rock” trio here becomes a devastatingly direct pop group, without sacrificing an inch of quiet intensity.
Silberland Vol 3: The Ambient Side Of Kosmische Musik (1972–1986)
Double LP version. On their last trip to Silberland, hurtled along the chrome highways and glass skyways of the kosmische landscape, powered ever onwards in perpetual motorik motion. This time, however, the Hamburg imprint opt for an unhurried itinerary, coasting far beyond the familiar rhythmic terrain to immerse listeners in the ambient side of this alternative Allemagne. Building on the tape loops, tone poems, and minimalist compositions of the '60s avant-garde, these musicians utilized the s…
Colpo Rovente
2xLP Transparent Blue 180gr + CD | Limited Numbered Edition of 500 copies. Before he wrote a single bar of film music, Piero Piccioni was two other people. First, a teenage piano prodigy leading his 013 Big Band on Italian radio in 1938, smuggling American swing past Fascist censors. Then, after the war, a practicing lawyer in Rome, negotiating movie rights for Titanus and De Laurentiis while his jazz band became the first to broadcast in liberated Italy. It took Michelangelo Antonioni to see th…
Gli Intoccabili
2xLP Transparent Magenta 180gr + CD | Limited Numbered Edition of 500 copies. April 1969. On screens across Europe, a film opens that looks like an American crime picture but feels like something else entirely. Giuliano Montaldo, the Italian director who would later give us Sacco e Vanzetti and Giordano Bruno, has crossed the Atlantic to shoot a heist thriller in San Francisco and Las Vegas. The cast reads like an inventory of New Hollywood royalty: John Cassavetes, fresh from Rosemary's Baby, a…
Sabata - Ehi amico... c'è Sabata, Hai Chiuso! (LP, Transparent Red + CD)
Limited edition numbered to 500 copies. Transparent red vinyl format / 180 grams + CD. Lee Van Cleef had already defined the archetype twice over: once as the cold-eyed Angel Eyes in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, once as the elegant Colonel Mortimer in For a Few Dollars More. But Gianfranco Parolini saw something else in that gaunt, reptilian face. Not a villain. Not a gentleman bounty hunter. Something slipperier. A con man with a rifle. A blackmailer in black. A gunfighter who'd rather outsm…
I Lunghi Giorni Della Vendetta
Armando Trovajoli was not a western man. By 1967 he had two decades of work behind him - jazz, sophisticated comedies, orchestral scores for Vittorio De Sica. He knew how to make audiences laugh, how to make them cry, how to write for big bands and strings alike. But dust, horses, guns? That was Morricone territory, Bacalov, Nicolai. Yet when Florestano Vancini called him to score his only foray into the genre, Trovajoli responded with something no one expected.
I Lunghi Giorni Della Vendetta do…
Unfurling
*200 copies limited edition* Pefkin is the alter ego of Gayle Brogan, a Sheffield-based creator of slowly-unfolding, ritualistic hymnals that draw deeply on landscape, nature, and the histories that bind them. Her sound is built from a mesmerising layering of voice, viola, analogue synths, harmonium, melodica, zither and field recordings manipulated with a kaleidoscopic array of effects. Hereby she blurs the boundaries between folk, psychedelia, and experimental music. Over the years her work ha…
Live at San Bias
*20 copies limited release* Live performance recorded in July 2023 at Trattoria San Biagio in Orsenigo (CO). Electronic rhythms blend with long guitar improvisations over deep bass lines. The Telamons lead, a forest becomes a mountain, and the faithful move forward through lysergic journeys filled with presences.
Monomonomono
*20 copies limited release* Gabriele Ghezzi (Guitarist for Node and Telemons) first solo project. The songs are recorded live, allowing his technique guitar practice to follow the edges of the drum machine and effects taken to the extreme. A fiery project born from the machines. Psy-death-core.
El-Hadra - The Mystik Dance
*100 copies limited edition* El-Hadra is more than ambient music - it’s a sonic ritual that leaves a permanent mark on the soul. This album has transformed the way many perceive sound, becoming a personal landmark for countless listeners. Originally recorded in the late 1980s, it fuses elements of Sufi trance with hypnotic tabla rhythms, meditative zither, and deep ambient drone to form a truly transcendent experience. Listening to El-Hadra is like entering a space beyond time - a journey one ca…

Il demone sotto la pelle
In 2023, Trip Hill released his latest work, Il demone sotto la pelle (The Demon Under the Skin), available only as a downloadable file on the Bandcamp online platform. It was an album that differed somewhat from his previous works, in which Fabrizio's passion for krautrock became even more evident and was accompanied by his now classic psychedelic explorations, revealing his more hypnotic-meditative side with oriental, visionary and magical-mystical influences. A wonderful album that we can fin…
Mountains Move Like Clouds
*2025 stock* Noam Bierstone’s debut album, Mountains move like clouds, features three works for solo percussionist by composers Hanna Hartman, Pierluigi Billone, and Zeynep Toraman. Each work presents a unique and evocative environment built upon the rich sonic potential of unconventional playing techniques and instruments. In Message from the Lighthouse, Bierstone assumes the role of an exciter or prober of sounds, drawing out sounds unheard from a flowerpot contraption holding antique stainles…
what came before me is going after me
No Hay Banda teams up with composer Zihua Tan to release his debut album of two stunning works composed for the group's musicians: the percussion solo 'remnants present', and the quintet 'what came before me is going after me' featuring violin, cello, voice, percussion and ondes Martenot.
'What came before me is going after me', lantern consciousness heightened, delicate hums were all that I could discern. They were loud, the hums, more deafening than inner dialogues trapped in a jar. For a mom…
Il Teatro Rosso
*Comes in a digipack with a stunning poster booklet and sticker, all beautifully designed by Juliette Moal.* "A stunning and singular collaboration between the fearless Montréal ensemble and the innovative American composer Steven Kazuo Takasugi. Dizzying chamber music writing intertwines with trompe l'oreille electronic hyperrealism produce a set of feverish music that embraces both playfulness and unsettling surrealism." - Nick Storring
Hopeful Monster
*2025 stock* "In experimental music, artists are often praised for taking risks, yet it's seldom that the conditions that inspire and enable their plunges into yet-unknown realms are discussed. The powerful music found on Hopeful Monster, the partnership between acclaimed Toronto-based pianist Eve Egoyan and Costa Rican-born, British composer-musician Mauricio Pauly (who now lives and works in Vancouver), is a testament to the vitality of these very conditions. Their collaboration began in 2018 …
The Garden Of A Former House Turned Museum
*2025 stock* In „The Garden of a Former House Turned Museum”, Chloë Lum and Yannick Desranleau feature a sung correspondence between an anonymous contemporary interlocutor and the Brazilian author Clarice Lispector (1920–77), an important 20th-century literary figure. Epistolary “Dear Clarice” prose poems guide us through Rio de Janeiro, here covered with lush nature as if human activity had simply ceased. Played by four different performers (all sung by Sarah Albu), the protagonist addresses Li…
I Had A Dream About This Place
*2025 stock* I had a dream about this place, No Hay Banda's debut album, brings together four long-form works for chamber ensemble and electronics by four of Canada's most fascinating composers. No Hay Banda has developed deep collaborative relationships with all four composers over the years, and is thrilled to feature their work on this special release.
sedimentary flesh diary
*50 copies limited edition* The object of listening emerges from within the fragmentation. Wilful and artificial abstractions are merging with the world in which we perceive, from the outside, with regard to what those sensible materialities seek to listen within us. From a global perspective, this composition is the semantic complexity of a voyage. Micro-level of emotional transactions between the perceived and the perceptive; commentary of sonificated sieves of embedded experiences. To formula…
