The Kokkyou Junreika release, often considered Caesar’s finest work, was culled from the 5 hours of music written for the original play distilled down to an album’s worth of ageless chants, Budhist mantras, heavenly invocations and fuzztone guitar vamps supported by Caesar’s droning electric organ and …

Eve
2025 stock Winter’s most precious gift is its snow-muffled hush. eve, the first full-length collaboration between zakè and Benoît Pioulard, pays tribute to the kind of supernatural December night where fleeting moments of peace manifest in visible exhalations and crystalline silence.

Canti Vol. I
The debut EP by ONDAKEIKI sits halfway between a meditation session and a wild beach party, where reggae rhythms meet post-punk angularity and hypnotic psychedelia. Wrapped in a warm blanket of reverb and delay, the four long songs strike a delicate balance between fun and spirituality.
