Dead Eyes Opened
Severed Heads are one of the longest standing bands to have emerged from the Australian post-punk and experimental scene. They began in Sydney in 1979, and were an early outfit to incorporate elements of 'industrial' noise-generation, tape cutting & looping and electronic sound synthesis. As the project developed, song-structures and vocals were employed in a more-or-less recognizable mutant electro pop style. After many line-up changes featuring Gary Bradbury and psychedelic guitarist Simon Knu…
In Another Land, Another Dream
Camila Nebbia and Angelica Sanchez form a remarkable duo with an immediate affinity that is truly striking. Sanchez's austere lyricism beautifully complements Nebbia's highly expressive language, resulting in duets that showcase their creative and profoundly interactive nature.
Geometry Of Phenomena
This foursome is resolute in its acceptance of communal responsibility and creation. Vocalist Kyoko Kitamura sings and speaks in wordless flurries, matching and Taylor Ho Bynum’s brassy exhortations on cornet. Cellist Tomeka Reid and guitarist Joe Morris worry and pluck their respective strings, applying speed and torque in the loosing of spidery cascades of crinkled and crenelated tones. Pitch and timbre differentials are a big part of the interplay with instruments juxtaposed in bursts of acti…
Prose Métallique
Using 'everyday' objects to prepare the instrument in a simple way structures this "Prose Métallique", in which each piece offers a poetic approach to language and textual references. Recorded in one day, these close-miked solo pieces for alto saxophone explore the area where voice and instrument converge.
The Glass Changes Shape
"These three artists don’t need volume or soloing to get their message across. Their message is inscribed in elegant lower-case and rarely used aural fonts. You will find yourself leaning forward because not a note or whisper should be missed..." - Brian Morton
Coda
First ever international release of Ryuichi Sakamoto's landmark 1983 album "Coda," his rendition for solo piano of the 'Merry Christmas mr. Lawrence' soundtrack. Featuring remastered audio and new liner notes by Andy Beta.

Apapneas Hypmne Somome
"Psychic Sounds welcomes the premiere publication of Chilean based musician, and animator Anibal Bley’s debut as Lavina Yelb. Originally released as a digital download in 2010, ‘Apapneas Hypmne Somome’ has finally found its way to physical media to bump & bounce in decks directly to your dome. ”Lavina Yelb’s world is inhabited by 8-bit characters, self-flapping blankets that shape-shift into and out of a plethora of cartoon morphologies and stroboscopic blocks and lines of color. Cheap keyboards…
iiinox
Tip! Picot is pleased to present the debut solo album by french percussionist Charles Dubois, inaugurating the label’s very first production. Charles Dubois has developed an all-terrain, rudimentary approach to percussion, blending wood, skins, bells, scrap metal, and other found objects. Entirely acoustic, this solo performance on augmented drums explores paradoxical spaces balanced between organic textures, improvised technoid patterns, mechanical movements, and raw sound materials.

King Of The Golden Hall
Clear Vinyl edition. Comes with Poster. Out of Season and Hosianna Mantra are proud to announce the launch of the first-ever reissue campaign of the works of cult fantasy synth figure Jim Kirkwood, whose original compositions predated by several years the legendary dark ambient progenitors of what would later be rebranded as “dungeon synth”. Kirkwood's musical style was unique from his contemporaries, falling less in-line musically with the medieval, subterranean dread of his peers and more with…

This Whole Emptiness
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* “It all happened in a sweet sort of blur. We knew something special was being captured. Though Ricardo has his influence of Brazilian music, I’ve studied in African rhythms in Ghana, and Will is a jazz-trained guitarist, the outcome is more other-worldly as opposed to ‘world music.’
Hybr:id (LP)
2022 repress HYbr:ID Vol. 1 is the first installment of a new series of Alva Noto’s works bringing together heterogeneous composition methods. HYbr:ID Vol. 1 captures the music commissioned for the score of ‘Oval’, the choreographic piece directed by Richard Siegal and performed by the Staatsballett Berlin at the Berlin State Opera in 2019. The process of creating HYbr:ID Vol. 1 was defined by the search for a form to bind astrophysics phenomena, fiction, and performance movements. Its narrativ…
Storia Notturna
*2024 stock. 300 copies limited edition* "Storia Notturna" is a collection of music written, produced and recorded mainly in September 2021, but its origins go back in time. As far back as my University studies in the early 90s. For one of the many extra-departmental courses that my study plan in Philosophy allowed, I chose Social History and found myself studying the seminal study by Carlo Ginzburg "I Benandanti: Stregoneria e culti agrari tra Cinquecento e Seicento" (Einaudi, 1966). It was a r…
Night Shapes

For this release Fabio plays mono synths and FM synth and effects. Similar to the latest releases, this five-tracks album also maintains electronic atmospheres, sometimes cold and dark, sometimes melodic, but always deep. Another true gem of deep electronic, ambient and cosmic music from Fabio Orsi! The album is available…
Performs Monument Maker
The debut recording from the duo of multi-award-winning Scottish author David Keenan and Bruce Russell, the guitarist from the greatest underground rock band of the late 20th century, New Zealand’s the Dead C., was recorded live in Christchurch, NZ, as part of the Word festival in August 2023. A series of live improvised settings that pair readings from Keenan’s monolithic and critically-acclaimed modernist masterpiece, Monument Maker (White Rabbit 2021), with guitar and electronics from Russell…
Devonanon
10 years after their debut, City Of All Times audio-visual enquirers John B McKenna and Richard Greenan re-appear as Devonanon, to share the findings of a decade-long sonic experiment. Like its predecessor, Richard & John is a living, breathing collection of field recordings and compositions, gathered gradually from remote corners of the pair's lives. Familiar waypoints - interwoven microtonal synths, regurgitated live performances, polite whispering, and the gurgling hum of vehicles (land and s…
