Os Mutantes
*2026 repress* Lilith present a reissue of Os Mutantes' self-titled debut, originally released in 1968. With the release of their debut LP in 1968, Os Mutantes cracked the already red hot Tropicalia scene wide open. Fusing traditional Brazilian music, psychedelia, rock, and a good dose of pure experimentation, they quickly became giants both in Brazil and in the outer fringes of pop music, where they have managed to reign supreme for the past four decades. Not an easy task in such a crowded aren…
To Pan Eon
Inspired by the ancient Greek concept of To Pan Eon — “the All, the Eternal” — German drone transcendentalists Inade and Troum unite for an immersive four-track 10” EP that explores the infinite cycles of mind and matter. Having admired and followed each other’s work for decades, the two projects now converge in a focused and intense collaboration, shaping sonic landscapes that blur the boundaries between inner and outer worlds. With this release, their shared aesthetic vision crystallizes into …
The Garden Suite
Acclaimed musicians Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor will release their highly anticipated album, “The Garden Suite”. Following their previous collaboration on Daniel Dor’s debut album, “Four Petals”, this new project sees the duo exploring uncharted musical territory with an innovative, Moog-based sound.
Inspired by the groundbreaking work of synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil, “The Garden Suite” marries electronic textures with the richness of orchestral sound. Drawing from a vast range of influences…
Found & Found
“Found & Found” - the second album from Nitai Hershkovits and Daniel Dor grew out of pure curiosity. “There was more to say, more to explore,” says Dor. Expanding from the synth-only palette of 2024’s “The Garden Suite,” these tracks include guitar and clarinet, blurring the line between acoustic and electronic. Each composition is built with interlocking, mantra-like patterns - hold onto a sound, and find yourself floating above or descending inside.
Wigmore Hall 1968
*Edition of 300 copies. High thickness cardboard with opaque laminated cover. Comes with a printed insert.* John Tchicai (1936-2012) was one of the most visionary free jazz saxophonists of the 20th century - a rare artist whose voice stood apart even among giants. Born in Copenhagen to a Danish mother and a Congolese father, his path to New York came through a chance encounter at a socialist youth festival in Helsinki, where Bill Dixon and Archie Shepp heard him play and urged him to make the mo…
John Tchicai Quintet, John Tchicai Peter Kowald Duo
*Edition of 300 copies. High thickness cardboard with opaque laminated cover. Comes with a printed insert.* John Tchicai was extraordinarily prolific during the late 1960s and early 1970s, and this second archival release from Formalibera captures two essential, previously undocumented chapters of his story. Side one takes us to Danish Radio House, Copenhagen, October 1969, where Tchicai leads a remarkable hybrid quintet fresh from a European tour: Danish collaborators Hugh Steinmetz and Pierre …
Ntsano
On Ntsano, Mara & Naná Vasconcelos weave Québécois avant‑garde jazz into Afro‑Brazilian ritual: berimbau, winds and drums circling through slow‑burning themes that feel at once meditative, mysterious and fiercely alive.
Thrilling
In Thrilling, Ennio Morricone’s widescreen sense of drama condenses into a tightly wound suite of themes: tense strings, ghostly choirs and razor‑edged rhythm figures that turn suspense into something almost voluptuously atmospheric.
They Came Like Swallows - Seven Requiems for the Children of Gaza
On They Came Like Swallows – Seven Requiems for the Children of Gaza, Bonner Kramer and Thurston Moore channel decades of noise, songcraft and studio sorcery into seven slow‑burning laments, where volcanic drones, grief‑stricken melody and a haunted Joy Division cover fuse into a stark act of sonic mourning and resistance.
Release Of An Oath
Originally released in 1968 on Reprise Records, Release Of An Oath is the fourth studio album by The Electric Prunes and a radical departure from their earlier garage-psychedelic sound. The album was fully composed and arranged by David Axelrod, drawing inspiration from liturgical music and classical structures, most notably Johann Sebastian Bach’s Mass in F Minor.
Although credited to The Electric Prunes, the record largely features session musicians under Axelrod’s direction, with only drummer…
Dirty Water
Released in June 1966, Dirty Water stands as the definitive album by The Standells. Recorded during a two-day break from touring, the LP blends garage rock, attitude, and raw energy, powered by the iconic title track — a Top 10 hit and one of the band’s signature moments. A longtime cult favorite, it remains one of the strongest garage-rock statements of the 1960s.
Part One
Released in 1967 on Reprise Records, Part One is the second album by The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band and is widely regarded as their strongest and most cohesive work. Blending psychedelic pop, experimental rock, and surreal songwriting, the album features compositions by Frank Zappa, P.F. Sloan, Baker Knight, and Van Dyke Parks. More song-oriented than their debut yet still wildly unpredictable, Part One captures the strange, fractured beauty of Los Angeles psychedelia at its peak.
Istikhbars and Improvisations
On Istikhbars And Improvisations, Mustapha Skandrani turns solo piano into a bridge across the Mediterranean, translating Arabo‑Andalusian vocal modes into crystalline keyboard meditations that move like a modal Goldberg from Algiers to Paris and back.
Cavejaz
Rio de Janeiro guitarist and composer Fabiano do Nascimento returns with new album Cavejaz.
L’uso e gli attributi del cuore
Certain paths necessitate and call for one singular long sequence in order to arrive at a fully formed conversation or reasoning. Nothing seems to broadcast it more clearly than the trajectory Brussels based Italo-Vietnamese artist Nguyễn Zen Mỹ embarked on during the last decade as Radio Hito. After a string of highly cherished and sought out tape releases, Radio Hito’s new album ‘L’uso e gli attributi del cuore’, co-released by Maple Death & Meakusma, unfolds with devastating clarity, a profou…
The Bubble of Love
Modern Obscure Music presents The Bubble of Love, a new collaborative album by Pedro Vian together with Ustad Nawab Khan and Naved Nawab Khan — the 9th and 10th generation of a distinguished santoor lineage from Rajasthan, India.
Osni the Flare
In Osni the Flare, the second chapter of Tristan Allen's mythic trilogy, the composer, producer, and puppeteer follows a mortal’s transformation into deity through the discovery of fire. Recorded over four years using wordless vocals, organs, ocarinas, an arsenal of toy instruments, and intricate sound design, Osni the Flare unfolds the origins of flame and temporality across four acts. Weaving a creation myth that shifts between beauty, shadow, and wistful embers, Allen provides a portal to met…
Bill Nace Plays the 2 String Taishogoto
Bill Nace turns a traditional two‑string instrument into a focused sound laboratory, contrasting a feedback‑touched, spiralling first side with a pared‑back, bodily repetition that slowly blooms into vast harmonic space.
Rex
Rex is a solo cello record written and recorded while I’ve been living in the former home of Rex Brasher, a self-taught painter who created over 1,200 watercolors of North American birds. Composed for acoustic and electric cello, the record reflects the solitude and intensity that shaped both Brasher’s vision and my own process. Rex is not a portrait, but an echo—of a person, a place, and a way of seeing the world. Thank you to Matthew, Munawar, Cynthia & the RBA for the place, support, and gene…
