Drekka x [Hydzik + Trecka]
*50 copies limited edition* 3-way collaboration featuring Mkl Anderson, Evan Hydzik and Mark Trecka. The two lengthy recordIngs that make up this release have a dreamlike looseness while also maintaining the psychic precision of practiced ritual. Recorded over 2 nights in May 2015, the first inside a concrete box and the second in front of an audience at the Hideout. No computers, no overdubs, no file trading. Liminal, textured, organic, folk industrial music.
O Most Noble Greenness
"O Most Noble Greenness is a collaboration across centuries between Du.0 and Hildegard von Bingen, a German abbess and composer from 1100 A.D. Though separated from the composer by the remove of time, language, geography, and instrumentation, we nevertheless felt Hildegard’s presence as a living, breathing source of inspiration. Channeling Hildegard’s visceral embodiment of natural and mystical imagery, we deconstruct her song "Item de Virginibus" to uncover new sonorities and form. Throughout t…
Slapstick In The Birdroom
*50 copies limited edition* "This release has been in the works for a while and we're beyond thrilled to finally bring it to you. Pet Peeves seamlessly blends angular, precision musicianship with sheer blown-out chaos without sounding disjointed or contrived. High-energy guitar, drum and horn music with an absurdist performative edge. The sound of a tornado hitting a Guitar Center." - Orb Tapes
Separate In Space
*100 copies limited edition* Dauw welcomes back the multidisciplinary artist Zander Raymond to the label with a reissue of his debut album ‘separate in space’. Previously only available on USB/digital, it's now presented in a remastered version for cassette tape alongside a risograph interpretation of the initial artwork.
“I’m listening to the album right now. Are you? If so, you’re likely awash in the humble glow of these tracks, which seem to wonder and wander in equal measure. Yet there are a…
Tattoos and Other Markings
Other Minds is pleased to present Tattoos and Other Markings by composer and violinist Thea Farhadian. This album delves into the power of memory through a rich tapestry of musical influences, blending Farhadian’s training in classical violin, electronics, and Arabic classical music. Drawing on her experiences with improvisation, Farhadian weaves together a symphonic exploration of memory via her own family history. While working on Tattoos and Other Markings, Farhadian discovered the historical…
Swan In The Past
"Kindling is super excited to share our latest edition created by Arek Gulbenkoglu, who we think has produced some of the most consistently interesting sound works for fixed media in Australia over the last decade or more. Creating wilfully obtuse or even opaque works which are sonically thought-provoking and perceptually pleasurable by equal measure. While Arek has released a string of fantastic works on respected labels such as Penultimate Press, Regional Bears, Index Clean, Careful Catalog, a…
Alfredo
Mr. Bongo proudly presenting our reissue of a bona fide Latin classic from 1979 by the Cuban-born violinist Alfredo De La Fe. Based in New York and Colombia, Alfredo worked with some of the greats in Latin music including Eddie Palmieri, Willie Colon and Roberto Roena, alongside disco and soul icons like Sylvester and Aquarian Dream. His debut album, Alfredo, is sublime and comprises two distinct halves. The A-side is a fine outing of Latin dancefloor workouts, with Alfredo innovatively incorpor…
The Original Sound Of Mali 2
Following the success of ‘The Original Sound of Mali’ compilation, we return with another explorative delve into the wonders of Malian music compiled by French writer, journalist and Grammy-nominated compiler Florent Mazzoleni and Mr Bongo’s very own David Buttle. Restoring, reissuing and contextualising iconic tracks from Ousmane Kouyaté & Ambassadeurs Internationaux, Rail Band, Les Messagers du Mali, Mystère Jazz de Tombouctou and many more, the second compilation in this series dives ever fur…
Realistic IX
Realistic IX, the third full-length by the duo of Michael Jones and Turk Dietrich aka Belong, is both an expansion and excavation of their signature acid-washed songcraft. Bleached guitars, metronomic drums, and buried voices rev, swirl, and seethe across shifting gradients of haze and hypnosis, alternately driving and diffuse. Melodies surge closer to the surface, flexing their form before resubmerging into quickening currents of feedback. Elsewhere the elements dissipate into a dusk of murk an…
Road Extends
Road Extents, the latest offering from Cadaver Eyes on Orthodox, is a bold and challenging release from the veteran duo of drummer/vocalist David Opp (Barbara, Carnation Dingthang, Heart & Crossbone Records) and no-input-mixer virtuoso Eran "Zax" Sachs (Dumitrescu's Hyperion Ensemble, Asher.Zax). Over the past two decades, Cadaver Eyes have been exploring the experimental terrains introduced by John Cage and Gordon Mumma, using unpredictable electronic systems to crack apart and access sheer cos…
Recollections I-II
During the Soviet era, art often had to align with propaganda, seemingly fostering a symbiotic relationship between the state and its people. Consequently, in the realm of “Social Realism,” most forms of artistic experimentation were strongly discouraged and even punishable. With few exceptions, 20th-century Georgian classical/chamber music remained quite conservative; however, when faced with dysfunctional cultural phenomena, there will always be gaps in societal walls through which oppressed c…
A Love Supreme
Black Vinyl. John Coltrane saw the album-length suite A Love Supreme as his gift to God. The world has come to see it as a classic –not only Coltrane’s best-known work, but one of the most important and influential jazz records ever made. Featuring the Classic Quartet of pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Elvin Jones, A Love Supreme is one of the most honest musical performances put to tape. Its beauty and appeal are timeless.

Live at the Grange Hall [unauthorized]
Tip!

An outstanding group of musicians/others, who were very active in the Portland region during the time and receptive to the ideas of Brown and Reynolds, assembled to record these 4 works which were composed decades apart. An essential piece of the Brown/Reynolds/Old/Holy…
The Sounds Of Yusef
*Warehouse fund* Recorded in 1957 and released on the Prestige label, "Sound of Yusef" features Lateef's quintet with Wilbur Harden - flugelhorn, Hugh Lawson - piano, Ernie Farrow - bass, and Oliver Jackson - drums. Lateef's aesthetic was a perfect mixture of hard-driving jazz and a variety of ethnic materials. Even though If compared to later works, "Sounds of Yusef" is still very much rooted in Jazz while the use of traditional ethnic instruments adds colors and flavors without really deviatin…
Studio village hototoguis 2007-2022
Matsuyama in Ehime is the birthplace of haiku, and to this day, haiku submission boxes are placed around town. Young people gather in a haiku society-like manner. In other words, they observe and contemplate well, but their approach is generally instant, casual, and somewhat careless. There is a local disposition here, which they call “yomoda” in the dialect—a blend of humor and sadness. It’s as if they pretend to agree to demands in a laid-backway, all while delaying the big decision. It’s a ma…
The Sea Of Wires
The Sea Of Wires were a very early '80s electronic duo hailing from the industrial wastelands of Coventry. Followers of the German Electronic Scene of the time (Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel, Popol Vuh, Cluster etc), Chris Jones and Tony Murphy used elements of Kosmische Musik in their compositions, with a variety of warm synths, analogue effects, and layered experimentation. This double-CD collects cassettes which appeared on their own Sea Of Wires label: "Individually Screened" (1980, then 19…
Fury 161
"Field recordings, strips of metal percussion and electronics, all abundantly used along with the extensive use of reverb. Every piece is drenched in it, which helps the music's unsettling and apocalyptic character... church bells, vessels at the bottom of the ocean, all rusty and slowly scraped... Sometimes there is some creepy voice stuff, which scared the hell out of me the first time I played this. It's stuff I love very much. And, because this is not an original soundtrack, the pieces have …

The Mutations: Unreleased Basil Kirchin Film Music From 1968 and 1974
Some mighty fine unreleased Basil Kirchin's film music here, including the freaky deaky Mutations score, plus a killer Eastern-tinged TV soundtrack from a TV show you may never have heard of, called Journey To The Unknown, which was a spooky precursor to Tales Of The Unexpected. Kirchin's distinctive talent resides in the smooth juxtapositions and mutations of recorded surroundings, free jazz skronk, surprising vocal samples, and delicate electronic harmonies that he employs in his music.

Khandroma
Marking the launch of Ubi Kū - a brand-new imprint exploring the links between Buddhism, spirituality, and contemporary creation - Soundwalk Collective returns with “Khandroma”, the latest in their longstanding series of collaborations with Patti Smith.
