Rückverzauberung im Tunnel
Wolfgang Voigt makes a return to Astral Industries, seeing the continuation of his long-running Rückverzauberung (Reverse Enchantment) series. In line with previous volumes, one may expect the unconventional, idiosyncratic sound Voigt is reputed for. ‘Im Tunnel’ however, takes a more concentrated viewpoint - a metaphysical transmutation that brings with it an experience of mind-melting drones and swelling intensity.
Entering the tunnel is like opening a portal, but as the fabric of time-space b…
Temps Boro
"It all originates from a state between dream and reality - a drunkenness. Each title alludes to something blurry, abstract, or even unfinished. The next day, you wake up and don't know if what you did was, or simply wasn't. A distinctive endeavor with a somewhat lo-fi filter, featuring ambient touches, experimental dub elements, and holistically defined as avant-garde." New identity for new music, Bastien is part of anonymous Barcelona. And little more can be said about him.
L'Apprendista
Stormy Six, trailblazers of Italy's progressive music scene and founding members of the renowned Rock in Opposition movement, proudly announce the reissue of their iconic sixth studio album, “L'Apprendista”.

Overegginnit
The black Albumen began as an experiment by Glyn BiggaBush (Rockers Hi Fi, Dandelion Set, Magic Drum Orchestra, Lightning Head) to see if he could channel the music of Egg - specifically their 1969 debut album but with elements of follow-ups The Polite Force & Civil Surface - into his own productions. The black Albumen's musical palette was restricted to the same instrumentation as used by Egg - organ, piano, tone generator / test oscillator, bass guitar & drums. Time signatures were generally i…

Ethiopian Modern Instrumental Hits
"Ethiopians' deep-seated ethiocentrism, the legacy of a thousand years of history, has contributed in no small way to their music's strong national identity, particularly impervious to any African influences. Latin influences, so pervasive in the great musical centers of West Africa and the Congo, have been similarly rebuffed, despite the brilliant attempts of a musician like Mulatu Astatke. He was the first and for a long time the only Ethiopian to have studied music abroad (England and USA). I…
Ethio Jazz
The Ethio Jazz album by Mulatu Astatatke is a jewel of the modern Ethiopian music. Essential. An incredibly groovy Ethiopian record, originally from 1969-1972. Amazing orchestral 'Ethio-groove' filled with US soul, jazz, sometimes Latin and the deepest Eastern rhythms, even including some great nasty and dirty fuzz guitars. A true gem of Ethiopian modern instrumental music, which illustrates perfectly this symbiosis of strong rhythms and quality arrangements of subtle yet deep Ethiopian melodies…
Mwandishi
This album is one of Hancock's first departures from the traditional idioms of jazz, as well as the beginning of an original and creative style which eventually appealed to a wider audience. In addition, Mwandishi was Hancock's attempt at continuing the musical principles and styles he explored in his previous experiences with Miles Davis. Mwandishi was recorded at Wally Heider Studios Studio C, in San Francisco, California in January 1971, by Hancock's Mwandishi Sextet. The recording incorporat…

The Soothsayer
Blue Note Records proudly presents the reissue of Wayne Shorter’s legendary album, The Soothsayer—a vital chapter in the evolution of modern jazz and a showcase of Shorter’s compositional brilliance. Though recorded on March 4, 1965, at the iconic Van Gelder Studio, this remarkable session was not released until 1979, transforming it into one of jazz’s most revered hidden gems.
Upon its eventual release, critics hailed The Soothsayer as “hard-driving and as edgy as the time at which it was made,…

Crafted during Morgan’s …
The Disintegration Loops
Since the turn of this century, perhaps no other modern composition has had a more resonant healing effect than The Disintegration Loops. Composer William Basinski’s deteriorating analog tape loops evolved from melodic symphonies to melancholic silence over a span of time that uncannily turned passing minutes into pensive lifetimes. In her foreword for the new box set reissue of The Disintegration Loops, the pioneering multimedia storyteller, Laurie Anderson, describes the impact of this transfo…
