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…

Counterclockwise
Faun Fables’ most encompassing collection of “songtelling” to date: a true family album, etched exquisitely and studded with fine-hewed jewels of song. The richly lived-in atmosphere is a sonic world unto itself. Timeless folk music, warmly redolent of traditions passed down in an eternal recurrence that promises renewal – the a joyous counterclockwise movement spread over generation upon generation.
Wave Field
Digital album is the 2025 Edition, available on CD. Wave Field, released in 1995, was a departure from the first album into new composition methods involving the dirty textures of rock guitar, sounding in the open ears of many listeners (like Jim O'Rourke, who issued the disc in the US on dexter's cigar) as a synthesis of disparate elements — a nexus where Alvin Lucier, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine and Eno blend together. Here, the clangorous potential of the guitar was emphasized, giving a …
Non Mountain
*2025 stock. 50 sopies limited edition* The source material was created by Angus Carlyle for two films with Chiara Caterina, ‘Il Vertice’ (2013) and ‘Into The Outside’ (2015), part of his larger project ‘In The Shadows of Silent Mountains’. The soundtracks have been reworked and responded to for this collaborative project ‘Non Mountain’.
Songs For The Gentle Man

Reflections on the Future
The only album by hard rock band Twenty Sixty Six and Zen, released in Germany in 1972 as a mixed Anglo-German band. The original is an extremely rare and classic record, which has been sold at a high price amongst enthusiasts. The wild vocals and keyboards form a heavy and thick dynamism, and there are many progressive elements such as the introduction of the mellotron. This long-awaited encore pressing of this long-unavailable masterpiece is now available in paper jacket and SHM-CD / remastere…
Death May Be Your Santa Claus

Känguru
Third album by Guru Guru, pioneers of the krautrock scene, released in 1972. The last album of the band's heyday with the original three members Mani Neumeier, Uli Trepte and Ax Genrich. The band moved to a more organised style of playing, which, combined with the humour of the covers, gave the impression of being a bit of a letdown, but the content was excellent, and the album is a masterpiece of well-crafted songs with a lot of attention to detail. The aggression has receded, but the psychedel…
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…
And I Turned As I Had Turned As A Boy...
Magic Box present reissue of Dulcimer's And I Turned As I Had Turned As A Boy..., originally released in 1971. Having been talent-spotted playing in a restaurant in the English countryside, this acoustic trio made their sole album in 1971. A combination of gentle ballads, fantasy lyrics, and poetry read by actor Richard Todd, it's a lost classic of pastoral folk, and makes its long-awaited return to vinyl here, together with background notes and images.

Groet
2025 stock In the ever-evolving landscape of European improvised music, Groet stands as a testament to the restless creativity and sly wit of pianist Guus Janssen and drummer Han Bennink. Released on the Dutch label Data in 2005, this album captures two of the Netherlands’ most idiosyncratic voices in a dialogue that is as unpredictable as it is deeply musical.
Janssen and Bennink, both veterans of the Dutch avant-garde, approach the piano-drum duo format with a sense of play that borders on the…
Elastic Jargon
2025 stock Elastic Jargon is an album by Dutch composer and violist Maurice Horsthuis, released in 2007 on the Data label. The project brings together a unique ensemble of string players, with Horsthuis as the sole composer, exploring the boundaries of what can be achieved with string instruments alone.
Astronotes
2025 stock In the ever-mutable landscape of Dutch jazz, Joost Buis’s Astronotes stands as a testament to the playful collision of composition and improvisation. Released on the Data label in 2004, the album finds Buis—trombonist, composer, and bandleader—at the helm of a vibrant ensemble drawn from the heart of Amsterdam’s creative music scene.
From the opening bars of “The Eggs,” it’s clear that Buis is less interested in adhering to tradition than in subverting it with wit and invention. The b…
Slang
2025 stock In the shadowy interstices of contemporary jazz and free improvisation, Slang by Elastic Jargon emerges as a document of restless inquiry and coded communication. Released on the Dutch label Data in 2010, the album is a cryptic dispatch from the margins, where genre boundaries are not so much blurred as actively subverted
Elastic Jargon—true to their name—stretch the language of jazz until it snaps, then reassemble the fragments into something at once familiar and alien. The group’s a…
Tides Of Unrest / Berlin 2023
American percussionist Jeff Arnal and German pianist-composer Dietrich Eichmann’s two-decade partnership fuses polyrhythmic structures and vibrant textures in dynamic, improvised soundscapes. "Tides of Unrest" captures their creative synergy in a 2023 session, blending innovation, tradition, and collaboration.
Mega Mercy
*300 copies limited edition* Manchester’s sferic label return with a debut from ungoogleable Greco-Canadian anomaly Anastasia Patellis, aka Any, featuring additional instrumentation and co-production from Klein/Lolina cohort LA Timpa. It's a set of "squat pop" experiments that thread nocturnal soundscaping and pop hooks through hallucinated outlines written on harp and broken synth.
Greco-Canadian artist Any was bedding down in a Cretan squat when the album's title, μέγα ελεός in Greek, boomed …
