New Arrivals
Foli Bah
When Khalab and Baba Sissoko first recorded together in 2015, they produced something definitive: a record where electronics and griot tradition achieved genuine synthesis rather than polite cohabitation. Not layered genres maintaining separate identities, but two forms evolving into something singular. "Tata" took Track of the Year at the 2016 Gilles Peterson Worldwide Awards, found champions in Laurent Garnier, Ben UFO, Matthew Dear, Bonobo, and many others — but more significantly, it establi…
Nowin’ (Masaru Imada Cover)
Following the critical acclaim of his debut album "Sarda Sarda," London based Or Kantor is set to release a captivating tribute to the Japanese jazz legend Masaru Imada. The cover version, a reinterpretation of Imada's classic piece, is a testament to Kantor's unique musical style and his ability to infuse traditional jazz with Mediterranean influences. Kantor, whose debut album has garnered praise from stations like BBC 6, FIP, WYEP, and Kiss FM, discovered Imada's music through the encourageme…
Psychogeography
*300 copies limited edition* "A sprawling, meditative journey into inner and outer space, the new double album from Ivan The Tolerable sees Oli Heffernan retreat fully into the solo realm—crafting an expansive sonic world that feels both intimate and cosmic in scope. Recorded entirely alone and released via Riot Season, this latest work drifts away from structured forms and toward something more fluid, exploratory, and transcendent.Drawing on the devotional atmospheres of early ambient pioneers …
Slot Machine Music, Vol. 1 & 2: Field Recordings from Middle American Casinos
"Video gambling addicts, academic researchers, and industry professionals alike describe the trancelike state into which problem gamblers suspend themselves with remarkable consistency: they unanimously call it the machine “zone,” a kind of inner experience during which the rhythmic flow of human-machine collusion borders on mysticism. Time is abolished in the act of contemporary video gambling—simulated slot reels roll, virtual poker decks deal, and all worldly concerns are lost—leaving only th…
The Neon Weeps Tonight
*300 copies limited edition* Following 'The Sympathy Portal' LP, released earlier this year, 'The Neon Weeps Tonight' was similarly recorded during lockdown and released as a very limited CDr in early 2022 before its being mooted for this slightly edited reissue. This time comprising six compositions, it begins proceedings with Edward in a typically reflective mood that sometimes feels barbed as much as steeped in a yearning for times lost as melodic yet sombre keys assume a haunted quality befo…
Columns
*300 copies limited edition* Catholics Against Architecture is the name Chris Connelly has given this project that here collects twelve songs crafted from sonic collages, spoken word, fractured melodies, vocals not far removed from those that David Bowie traded some of his best songs on, rivulets of subdued noise and seemingly random location recordings, tender guitar work, tape manipulation and all kinds of other sounds either in between or beyond. Together, these compositions sit outside conve…
The Hermit
*200 copies limited edition* Glacial Movements, an ambient and electronic music label founded in Rome in 2006 by Alessandro Tedeschi (Netherworld), celebrates its 20th anniversary with the release of “The Hermit,” a collection of restored archival recordings from the early 2000s. These recordings, originally stored on deteriorated CD-r and Minidisc formats, were recovered and restored to reveal early experimental sounds full of mystery and emotional depth. These earliest sound experiments emerge…
Night Falls. Music inspired by David Lynch’s Twin Peaks
*150 copies limited edition* This compilation continues a path that Unexplained Sounds Group has been developing over time, following the earlier CD project inspired by Eraserhead. While that release focused on the cinematic origins of David Lynch’s language, this new work turns its attention to Twin Peaks, the television series created by Lynch and Mark Frost that profoundly reshaped the relationship between narrative, sound and perception on the small screen. First broadcast in 1990, Twin Peak…
Electroacoustic Work
*30 copies limited edition* Electroacoustic Work is a collection of experimental sound pieces recorded in 2024-2025. It includes work spanning from performance and composition to interactive installation material. A running theme between all tracks is the use of feedback. Crying Bark and Liquid Arm are concerned with feedback between performer, live electronic systems, and acoustic space. Lichen Cloud uses microphone feedback, spatialised by the tracked positions of people in the installation ro…
Acid Heath
*50 copies limited edition* Concrete Gazebo are a mostly Cambridge (UK)-based collective of musicians who improvise together. They have also been organising the free, open-to-all improvisation nights, Under The Concrete Gazebo, since 2018. The line-up of Concrete Gazebo on recordings is constantly in flux, with players dropping in and out depending on the sessions and others preferring to focus entirely on live performance. All the music released to date, either directly to their Bandcamp or via…
Stella Kola
Originally self-released in 2023, Stella Kola, the debut album from Beverly Ketch (Jow Jow, Weeping Bong Band) and Robert Thomas (Sunburned Hand of the Man, Dalthom), now returns in a renewed edition - bringing wider attention to a record that already felt like a quietly essential artifact from the moment it first appeared.Given the pair’s respective roots - and the presence of collaborators drawn from across the Northeast experimental underground - one might expect “a brutal blast of acid swirl…
Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl - (Book + Flexi)
In Sonic Boom, Spectrum & E.A.R. Vinyl, Danny Passarella turns Pete Kember’s solo history into a 300‑page artifact: every record from “Angel” to A ? Of When, unreleased audio, new interviews and ephemera mapped into a definitive, tactile chronicle.
Strange City
On Strange City, Merzbow drags Sun Ra’s archival fire through a bank of howling electronics, turning rare Saturnian jazz fragments into towering, cosmic noise storms where horn blasts, rhythms and feedback fuse into a single, irradiated signal.
Béke
**CD Version* “Peace is not the word to play” rapped Large Professor on Main Source’s 1991 debut album. His plea to stop abusing the word “peace” simply for rhetoric flair sounds just as valid in today’s genocidal world as it did in the streets of New York over 30 years ago. For Oiro Pena to name this album Béke, meaning peace in Hungarian – or white people in French Caribbean creole – it seems like they finally have something to say. With this group/concept/project called Oiro Pena, circling as…
Love Walked In
There is a particular kind of record that only happens when a visiting player drops into a local scene and everyone raises their game. Love Walked In is one of those. For a short run of dates in 2024 the New York pianist Michael Kanan joined the Leeds trio of Alex Fisher, Simon Henry and Elliot Roffe, and the group carried that chemistry into a small hillside studio above Keighley, in West Yorkshire, to commit it to tape. The result is a single, unrepeatable meeting of veteran New York swing and…
Introspection
Brazilian guitar music has a way of folding the whole century into a single instrument, and few players carried more of it in their hands than Luiz Bonfá. Most listeners know him through the songs he wrote for Orfeu Negro, the ones that helped carry bossa nova out of Rio and across the world. Introspection, cut for RCA in 1972, is the quieter counterweight to that fame: eight original pieces for solo guitar, recorded at a moment when Bonfá had stopped chasing the hit and turned inward.
Metlasr
Metlasr is an album for microtonal idiophones and modular synthesizer by composer/producer Tyler Friedman for Radicant_Editions.
Big Rigs on the BQE
Prison’s third big one, Big Rigs on the BQE, finds our jammers of legend far away—miles from Downstate (2025) and Upstate (2023): driving further down the road, Prison’s guitar, bass and drums compel them to dream loud. An improvised rock and roll tapestry, multiple impulses, intersections and lifelines rended with gas ‘n guitar pedal on down to the metal. Reflecting real lives lived today, sprawled and recalled in undulating electroacoustic performance. On March 7th 2024, Prison vets Sarim Al-R…
Plot
*300 copies limited edition* Crossing borders between traditions, sonic territories, and instruments, musicians Tomáš Niesner and Aldana Duoraan created their first collaborative album Plot. The sound of khomus meets guitar melodies simplified into pentatonic scales, intertwining in a dialogue that remains playful while moving between meditative passages and bewitching, hypnotic moments. Solid yet ever-changing, these melodies explore a delicate relationship between the present interactions, the…
The Return Of DJ Grzyb
Born on the fertile slopes of Mount Centyrz, sourced from the remnant ashes of a devastating epidemic that wiped out the region centuries ago, the spirit of DJ Grzyb sprouts from the soil like a white-capped monk clad in fungal vestments. Untethered from human language, waiting to be harvested by virtuous hands; only then delivering its immortal knowledge. Legend tells that it was once carried away by supernatural forces seeking to recall the fairy tales of its ancestors, the protective spirits …
