Dreams Of 75
Lothar Jahn’s "February '75” single was released by the German label Sound Records in 1977 — a very unusual record, somewhere between psychedelic, folk, and Krautrock. That single was reviewed thus on Discogs: “A mysterious journey through Cosmic Psych Folk Kraut, whatever you may call it. Fantastic, from beginning to end. Another Kraut on 45 milestone.” This newly recorded album, “Dreams of ’75,” is an extended riff on the original single, taking that smaller vision as a starting point and th…
Ceptic Frog

Collected Singles
Not many albums can get you in the mood to blow out your speakers quite like Kath “1”, the hideously rare and expensive 1974 low-fi, semi-ramshackle DIY psychedelic LP made by members of Maryland band Badge, recorded in the home of band leader Val Rogolino (and, yes, dedicated to his girlfriend and their pet monkey!). What Patrick the Lama said in Acid Archives about Kath, is equally applicable to Badge: “Obscure and impressive melodic basement garage/psych with a lo-fi atmosphere that would hav…

Winter Resort Music
"The inspiration for Winter Resort Music is derived from a childhood passion for winter sports. It's all about the spooky synths, mainlining radiophonic electronics, subconscious TV memories and an awe about what these athletes could do on the slopes when you were living in the suburbs. Can anyone forget the glowing figure-skaters, dancing into the public consciousness? The perfect beauty that melted girl's and boy's hearts around the world. Sunday afternoons spent watching guys flying on long j…
Metal
*65 copies limited edition.* There is not many other duo's on czech free improv / noise scene such as these two. Klamm & Pelikan. They are something like Durman / Posejpal for generation X. Working together since 2011, but probably much longer. This is Discogs knowledge speaking. They are navigating themselves through the wastelands of tones that nobody wants to hear. Ever. Manipulated guitar, tape loops combined with alt sax and clarinet and hallucinating voices. Sometimes the offering consists…
Walnut Instrument / Ballet For Skeptics
*80 copies limited edition.* Kult Masek is moniker for Michael Nechvátal, who is long time alam of Stoned to Death. His new album Walnut Instrument / Ballet for Skeptics is his first release for the label under Kult Masek, but he has made quite a humongous mark on the labels catalog already - namely with his other projects such as Jasnovidec, Raw Deal or M-N. In his latest two compositions Nechvátal further explores possibilities of his modular synthesizer. His main source of inspiration and sou…
BO
*120 copies limited edition.* "I'm on a jet ski. The river I'm on is dirty. Not like it was clean before, but there was some rain up north and now the mud got in the stream. Bunch of birds are hanging out on the piece of driftwood. The splash of dirty water from jet ski disturbs them from their limbo. They fly away, they squeal with displeasure. This river is all mine. Rain starts pouring. Jet ski is on full speed now, spitting the brown mud water out. Sound of a collapsing engine brings the jet…

Karmic Dream Sequences
*300 copies limited release* A dreamy sequence, the beauty of the void, attempts to melt and form itself while seeking internal and external karma. Perspective from the tremendously minutest moment to the most hugest puls. The illusion of listening to the whispering of a tiny fetus in the mother’s womb. Auditory hallucinations as if hearing the roar of magma wriggling at the depths of the earth. All musical components here are the sounds of electric guitar,bass,synthesizers,human/animal voices, …
A Little Fable
*2023 stock* Ahead of the release of Aspidistrafly’s long-awaited new album, their 2011 fan-favourite second album 'A Little Fable' will be reissued on vinyl for the first time. “With a hushed wispy voice in the spirit of Vashti Bunyan, Aspidistrafly have more in common with ambient composers like Max Richter — and, along the way, have found their own leaf-covered path.” wrote NPR Music upon its original release. Now marking the 10th year anniversary of the album, 'A Little Fable' is still being…
Stranger To My Room

Vacation From My Mind
*2023 stock* A gift to the overthinkers and overworked. Those who are over-concerned and always preoccupied. This is an invitation to hang up the bootstraps, take a load off, and visit a place in the mind where the sun is shining, the breeze is soft and the waves lap softly at your feet. Vacation From My Mind is a sonic realignment of melancholic soul, breezy soft rock, & mellow jazz-funk.
This album is a thoughtfully curated collection of 12 rare and obscure tracks from 1973 to 1981. From Jean…
Permanent Rain
‘Permanent Rain’ is introspective listening. Lean back and let your ears catch a source that moves, breaths, resonates and rises, until a quiet truth swells upon us. XIII captures truth in all its honesty. Sometimes it feels so physical, it’s as if time and elements of nature are peeled of layer after layer. This record combines songwriting with sonic hypnosis. A rhythmic, esoteric oasis, containing currents of mysticism, yet accompanied by contemporary electronics. Its elements translate to a b…
Lord Sitar
*2023 stock* "Big Jim Sullivan's rock'n'roll credentials go back as long as British Rock's family tree existed. Big Jim's career started in 1959 after meeting Marty Wilde in the 3'i's coffee bar. He's played on fifty nine number one UK hit singles, and his lengthy career included stints with Tom Jones and the James Last Orchestra. Naturally, his Sitar technique was far superior to virtually anyone elses in the western world (yes even Bill Plummers!), although he still is no Ravi Shankar of cours…

Habitat Ensemble
Music From Memory is excited to introduce the self-titled debut album of Habitat Ensemble, a new musical collective headed up by musician Marius Houschyar.
Scompaio
"Delmore FX (moniker of poet and artist Elia Buletti) is a purveyor and craftsman of avant-world and post-world sounds. His sophisticated but straightforward electroacoustic language made of experimental novelty and folkloric ancientness has the oblique capacity of making one listen, dance and think astray at once. "Scompaio" (I disappear) is the new full length work by Das Andere Selbst label’s bright spark. Built around the mundane but magic disappearance of shapes, things and beings alike in …
Inner Roads And Outer Paths
*300 copies limited edition* Inner Roads and Outer Paths is Herefordshire born Vic Mars’ third release on Clay Pipe Music. It follows last years ‘The Soundtrack To The Hospice’ commissioned by Gideon Coe for BBC 6 Music, and 2015s critically acclaimed ‘The Land and the Garden’.
