Live At The Hacienda '83
2025 stock Limited to 2000 copies. Having appeared in La Dolca Vita before joining The Velvet Underground in New York in the mid-‘60s, Nico seemed to be at the epicentre of all that was cool in the ‘60s.

Der Kleine Fritz In Klopstockland
2025 stock German conceptualist Ditterich von Euler-Donnersperg—alias the polymath Uli Rehberg—returns with "Der Kleine Fritz In Klopstockland," a release as enigmatic as its creator and as cryptic as the label that hosts it, the fabled Walter Ulbricht Schallfolien. As with much of Rehberg’s output, the boundaries between sound art, musique concrète, and dadaist narrative dissolve into a singularly strange proto-surrealist zone.
"Der Kleine Fritz In Klopstockland" oscillates between spoken …
Faust. Eros. Tod.
2025 Stock. In the shadowy interstices of avant-garde performance and sonic extremity, Faust. Eros. Tod. stands as one of Diamanda Galás’s most elusive and mythic recordings. Circulating as a rare bootleg, this live album—captured in the early 1980s and released unofficially in 1988—offers a raw, unfiltered glimpse into Galás’s early explorations of the voice as a weapon, an invocation, and a lament.
Faust. Eros. Tod. is not a conventional album, but a document of ritualistic performance. Galás’…
Der Fluss In Der Truhe
2025 Stock. There’s a certain feral, mischievous wit that has long defined the output of Walter Ulbricht Schallfolien, and "Der Fluss In Der Truhe," the collaborative release from Ditterich von Euler-Donnersperg and Column One, is no exception. Far removed from the polite boundaries of genre, the record unfolds as a cryptic exchange between two of Germany’s most enigmatic sound art congregations.
On Side A, Ditterich von Euler-Donnersperg (aka Uli Rehberg) weaves together fractured field re…
Capitol Complex
2025 stock Tris Vonna-Michell's latest artist's record/book is constructed around two works, Capitol Complex (2012-2014) and Ulterior Vistas (2012-2013), both of which are encapsulated on a ten-inch vinyl record. The spoken-word compositions are enclosed within a gatefold design and accompanied by the Capitol Complex manuscript as a booklet insert and a bound series of Ulterior Vistas photographic montages.
The Capitol Complex (Side A) recording pans between improvised spoken word and musical co…

Belsebub Är Lös...
*200 copies limited edition* After the sold-out reissues of San Michael’s and Gandalf’s albums, we plunge once more into Sweden’s labyrinthine musical vaults, to bring you Midsommar’s highly collectable debut, Belsebub är lös. Originally released in 1970, this is a psychedelic hard-rocker, occasionally amalgamating with proto-prog and folk. The self-titled opening track sets the stage for what is bound to follow. As we journey through the album’s stomping textures, we discover tunes such as Dröm…
horizonte
*300 copies limited edition* Funcionário delights in the freedom of creating freeform music for the first time in his career. On “horizonte”, he loosens the reins, his sound follows a wavy, organic structure rather than a rigid, formal one. If it feels freer and more colourful, that’s because it truly is. Eight years ago, when we first encountered his work, he was composing soundtracks for imaginary video games and crafting sonic landscapes that felt like destinations for sci-fi anime characters…

The soundtracks have been reworked and responded to for this collaborative project ‘Non Mountain’.
Lo Chiamavano Trinità...
*2025 Repress* A catalog such as Beat Records, with its roots in the '60s may have a difficult logistic. Beat Records changed many times head quarter up to moving to Via Filippo Nicolai 16 from the late '80s up to nowadays. Such a company catalog, sensibly grown during 55 years of life, was always needing more space and so, recently, the label decided to find a new place where to agglomerate various storages spread through Rome. What does all the above things have to do with They Call Him Trinit…
Eastern Rebellion
2025 stock The overlooked pianist/composer Cedar Walton (1934-2013) recorded this marvelous debut album with his band Eastern Rebellion in New York City on December 10, 1975. The currently hard-to-find ‘Eastern Rebellion’ contains some inventive playing from every member of the quartet and this inspired modern jazz session is a fitting memorial to Cedar Walton. With Walton (piano) were George Coleman (tenor sax), Sam Jones (bass) & Billy Higgins (drums) playing four band originals and one John C…
Leave Another Day
2025 Repress. In the ever-expanding universe of ambient and minimal electronic music archaeology, certain discoveries feel more significant than others - those rare moments when a previously overlooked recording emerges to fill gaps we didn't even know existed in our understanding of the genre's evolution. Stroom's reissue of Milan W's Leave Another Day represents precisely such a revelation, offering contemporary listeners access to a work that exemplifies the sophisticated minimalism that flou…
